Alonso handed penalty after Russell crash, drops to eighth

Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso has been given a 20-second penalty for what the Australian Grand Prix stewards deemed an “unusual maneuver” which led to George Russell’s dramatic crash on the final lap. The penalty drops Alonso from sixth to eighth in the standings. Russell crashed through Turn Six while chasing Alonso for position. The incident was referred to the stewards due to the way Alonso had appeared to dramatically lose speed on entry, with Russell following less than half a second behind. After an investigation on Sunday evening Alonso was found to have breached Article 33.4 of the sporting regulations, […]

Horner: ‘No tension’ with Verstappen but no one bigger than team

Christian Horner stated he would not stand in the way of Max Verstappen leaving Red Bull if he prefers to do so, but he remains confident the reigning champion will stay at the team beyond the end of this year. Despite winning the opening two rounds of the season, divisions and controversy within Red Bull have led to suggestions that Verstappen, who has a contract with Red Bull until 2028, could leave the team at the end of the year. A rift appeared within Red Bull last week after the team’s parent company, Red Bull GmbH, cleared Horner of allegations of inappropriate […]

Verstappen wins again, skirting questions of Red Bull future

After comfortably winning the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix on Saturday, Max Verstappen and Red Bull are cruising toward another championship season. Both, however, are refusing to be the first to blink in the deepening mystery regarding the three-time Formula One world champion’s future beyond 2024. The sort of victory witnessed at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit on Saturday night is what we’ve come to expect from this dominant Red Bull outfit. Verstappen led from pole, only briefly dropping to second after an early Safety Car, and was so far out in front that he was turning down his engine setting late on. It was utterly […]

FIA boss Mohammed Ben Sulayem under investigation

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem is reportedly under investigation by the organization he leads after a whistleblower alleged he interfered with the result of last year’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

A spokesperson for the FIA, asked for a comment on the report, could not confirm any details but stated “the matter is being discussed internally”. The investigation relates to a 10-second penalty given to Alonso at the 2023 Saudi […]

Senior Alpine staff resign after poor start to new F1 season

Renault-owned Alpine revealed another managerial shake-up on Monday with three new bosses replacing technical director Matt Harman and aerodynamics head Dirk de Beer, who have left the Formula One team after a dismal start to the season. Alpine said in a statement that both had chosen to leave and seek new challenges. The three new technical directors are Joe Burnell for engineering, David Wheater for aerodynamics and Ciaron Pilbeam for performance. All three will report to team principal Bruno Famin, who took over from the departed Otmar Szafnauer as interim boss last August and now has the permanent position. In the space […]

Hamilton: Childhood Ferrari dream stems from Schumacher

Lewis Hamilton has stated his desire to drive for Ferrari dates back to his childhood, when he used to play Formula One video games as Michael Schumacher. Hamilton shocked the F1 world at the start of this month when it was revealed that he would leave his Mercedes contract a year early to drive for Ferrari in 2025. Ferrari has not won a drivers’ championship since Kimi Raikkonen defeated Hamilton to the title in 2007, and its last period of sustained success was with Schumacher between 2000 and 2004. In an Instagram post earlier this month, Hamilton said it was a “childhood dream” to […]

Verstappen dominates F1 preseason testing

Max Verstappen concluded the opening day of Formula One’s preseason testing in the same place that he finished last year’s championship — comfortably clear of the rest of the field. The first of three days of testing got underway at the Bahrain International Circuit on Wednesday, with the opening race of the season set to take place at the same circuit on March 2. While headline times in testing can be misleading, Verstappen’s advantage of 1.140s over nearest rival Lando Norris is an ominous sign for the rest of the grid, especially as it comes off the back of two successive seasons of […]

Under-fire Red Bull boss Horner to attend preseason testing

Red Bull boss Christian Horner has confirmed he will be in the paddock when Formula One preseason testing starts in Bahrain on Feb. 21, despite being subject to an ongoing internal investigation into alleged inappropriate behavior. An F1 employee has accused Horner of controlling behavior and inappropriate text messages. Horner, who had a hearing on the matter in London on Feb. 9, has strenuously denied the allegations. On Thursday, at the launch of Red Bull’s car for the new season, he told ESPN he is “absolutely” sure he will keep his job into the new season and labelled the investigation a distraction ahead […]

Red Bull launch ‘brave’ and ‘innovative’ RB20 for 2024 season

Red Bull says it has “pushed the boundaries” with the design of its new Formula One car, the RB20, as it prepares to defend its position as the dominant force in Formula One for a third year running. The reigning champions revealed their new car on Thursday, six days ahead of pre-season testing, although much of the focus at the launch event was diverted by an ongoing internal investigation into team principal Christian Horner. Red Bull design chief Adrian Newey insisted the new car is an evolution of last year’s RB19, but a number of visual design variations — including a […]

Sainz in no rush to decide next move after Ferrari sign Hamilton

Carlos Sainz will take his time to decide where he spends “the most important three or four years” of his Formula One career, having found out Ferrari will replace him with Lewis Hamilton in 2025. Ferrari revealed the blockbuster Hamilton signing at the start of February, shortly after signing Sainz’s teammate Charles Leclerc to a new contract. Sainz had gone into the off-season hoping to secure a similar deal, but now has to look elsewhere. The Spaniard is a candidate to substitute Hamilton at Mercedes, although he is seen as a front-runner to join the Sauber team in 2025, which would see […]
