I agree Oscar Collage has already proven that. Heavy favorite to take the Australian GP, he practically grew up at Albert Park Circuit.

Williams improves and fights for 6th to10th with at least 1 car on a regular basis. Carlos clear #1 driver in the team by June. That said I really like Albon and hope he does really well this Year.
Chuck and Louie get along fine, Chuck comes out ahead at the end of the year.
Newey Improves AM by 10%, Alonso in the mix with the Williams and VCARB, Lance still a window licking twat that finds 2 or 3 decent finishes.
Sauber, HAAS, and Alpine fight over 8th, 9th and 10th over all, Sauber comes out 10th, Doohan replaced by Colapinto after his 5 race contract. Ocon continues to piss people off.
Bearman the surprise of the season. Kimi does ok but he’s in a much better car so he should look good.
Yuki drives like a guy with a big chip on his shoulder after being overlooked for RB, might be the most entertaining radio on the grid. Outshines his rookie team mate by a mile.
Lawson won’t challenge Max but he’ll do better than Perez.
The real fireworks come from Lando and Oscar. Lando has had a regular spot on the podium last year and Oscar is right behind him, both want more. Zak might have the hardest job in the paddock this year trying to keep his two young guns playing nice.
My prediction for top 3 drivers
1 Oscar
2 Lando
3 Max or Charles
Constructors
1 Mac
2 Ferrari
3 RB

Ocon continues to piss off people. I don't think anyone will disagree with that.
How many times do you think Yuki will be fined for swearing? LOL
Yup, Zak is going to have a fun year keeping Lando and Oscar in line.
The way Lance Stroll is maligned you'd think he's Justin Trudeau.
Don Luigi under the microscope.

Hamilton's contract is $100 per year for two years...meanwhile Juventus got knocked out of the Italian Cup by tiny Empoli. He may still be driving for Ferrari after the 2026 season, even if they risk losing Oliver Bearman.
Oscar is more aggressive then Lando, but I think in terms of pure laptime, Lando is the faster qualifier and if he can get some space he can pull away. Piastri is a better passer and a much better starter .I think Aston has done very little to the car so they will have budget cap for Newey to work with. I expect he will make an impact in the European season. The 2026 car concept is already in his head, he get the team started on the basic concept, and then get the aero team to start on his major 2025 upgrade. I think Ferrari are sandbagging TBH, probably Merc as well and maybe Red Bull.
They will have a long road ahead of them to even score a point.
Will F1 give them more testing time than they do established teams? If not, they're screwed for years.

Cadillac receive final approval to join F1 grid in 2026
It has been confirmed that the Cadillac Formula 1 Team have received final approval to join the sport, with the team – who are backed by TWG Motorsports and General Motors (GM) – set to join the F1 grid in 2026.

They have a top notch IMSA program, maybe they'll use that to test engines and other components before they start building.
I always think Max is sandbagging. Talks it all down then "zoom"! Also... this is still a sport about money, spectators, sponsors etc. so it's good to create a little tension and drama to pull the fans back in.
Brad Pitt surfing on the current popularity of F1.
Kerry Condon is in it, she'll help me get my mojo back.

I'm dying to know how they approved a script and got money to make a film that puts a 60 year old behind the wheel of an F1 car... experience or not. I KNOW it's Brad Pitt, and I like him as an actor, but FFS... it's just not even remotely possible. Of COURSE I'll watch it, but I will be rolling my eyes a lot!
