F1 2025 grid: Who are the drivers racing next season?

The 2025 F1 season starts on Sunday 16 March at Albert Park in Australia.

It will be another 24-race season and there will be no new races in the calendar. However, there are a host of new drivers at fresh teams.

The biggest change is of course Lewis Hamilton’s mega-move to Ferrari, with Italian teen Kimi Antonelli replacing Hamilton at Mercedes. Carlos Sainz has joined Alex Albon at Williams.

British teenager Ollie Bearman has been promoted to a race seat at Haas, with Esteban Ocon partnering him having left Alpine. Jack Doohan has taken Ocon’s place while at Sauber, Nico Hulkenberg will fill one seat and F2 champion Gabriel Bortoleto has taken the second seat.
