The anticipated 2025 Formula One season is set to be a highly competitive 24-race event, marking 75 years since the first seven-race championship in 1950. Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari has been the most talked about off-season news, signifying a fresh start for the seven-time champion. Max Verstappen, eyeing his fifth consecutive title, faces a tough challenge with Lando Norris of McLaren closing in. Meanwhile, the rookies of the new season, including an Italian teenager passing his driving test only in January, are ready to make their mark. Debates over FIA rules and the closely matched standing among teams add to the thrill. The season kicks off in Australia, with the final race in Abu Dhabi on December 7.
