HB: An absolute dogfight for the world title. Most teams are now at the upper limits of upgrading the current generation of cars. We will have a natural convergence regarding the hierarchy because there will not be a big regulation change for next year, but for 2026. So I want to see eight drivers in the mix – both at McLaren, Red Bull , Ferrari and Mercedes are fighting for the title, with the usual chaos in the midfield.

JP: A battle of drivers that goes all the way, with hopefully more than two drivers still in the running.

AB: A four-way title fight between McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes.

RT: I would like to see more people fighting for the championship title. It’s fantastic to have had seven different winners this season, but wouldn’t it be great if there could be a continuous, sustained battle between more than two drivers for the ultimate prize in F1. I would also like to see fewer team orders. Obviously teams do this to protect themselves in the constructors’ championship, but it sometimes leaves fans of the sport and even other drivers wanting more pure racing.

SB: McLaren is fighting for the Constructors’ Championship again, Lando Norris is fighting for the World Drivers’ Championship and a fast and happy Lewis Hamilton in Ferrari red.

MP: More of the same, please. I would like to see McLaren, Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull all get going and start the season where they left off in 2024, which is very, very close. If that happens, we could be set for a 2025 championship that could go down in the history books as one of the greatest.
