2025 Formula 1 Season Thread

It's reveal day! TSN 4 and it starts right now (1p.m MST)

Oh my, Stake Sauber is gonna flub a ton of strategy with Binoetto as team principle. Solidly in the back all year.

Williams definitely made some big gains in aero, you can tell just by looking at it. That is not a boring car. Heck of a way to bring in Carlos and a new big time prime sponsor.

Racing Bulls found a driver almost as small as Yuki lol. All white livery this year. Looks good IMO. Can't glean much detail there though.

Haas have Kane Brown (Who?) narrating their launch after he performed live. No change in livery, booooring. Actually, subtle changes. More white with black lettering.

Alpines DJ doesn't know how to dance to his own music lmao. I heard they might make a last second driver switch from Doohan to Colapinto as well. Yeah this DJ is very French, AKA bad. Total fit for Alpine lol. More pick for Alpine!

The Booong of the FiA was great.

Oooo Aston's turn!! Not expecting any big changes. Their car has the inconic British Racing Green on Lockdown. And of course Bond themed. Haha, coming in through the crowd is a nice touch. God I desperately need to see Lance Stroll replaced. Subtle color additions of white on the intake and black on the side pods. AM definitely playing strong into their branding.

Here come the Mercs. Looks like a Merc. More Gradient in their color scheme this year though.

RB leaning heavily into tuner culture. All for a bland livery reveal. Yep, nothing new for RB.

Meh, ittl be the same for Ferrari and McLaren I bet.

Oh my that's a massive white stripe on the Ferrari with HP blue smack dab in the middle. Kind of off putting.

McLaren with the quickest and least fussy intro so far. No change for McLarens livery. Looks like Williams and McLaren share the same aero ideas. Side pods are a big change for McLaren for sure.

Racing Bulls livery is sweet. Ferrari is uggggly. Those are the two standouts for me.

The FW47 is gorgeous. James is the real deal. He will turn that team around.

[KelVarnsen]

This is pretty good

2025 Pool Details!!

I was going to bump up the entry too $20 this year. Everything is more $$, including prizes/shipping etc. Hopefully that doesn't stop anyone from playing. If it does...we can do a strictly cash prize pool?

Changed the entry time to 9pm Calgary time to get rid of early qualy sessions. Removed fastest lap point.

Any other proposed changes? Scoring etc? Maybe a bonus point for picking P7 correctly or something like that?

** 2025 F1 Pool **
Rules
- Picks due FRIDAY 9pm Calgary time. All picks must be submitted before qualifying and this is just an easy cut off. If your picks get posted Sunday morning at 5am...no bueno.
- Everyone gets 2 missed race weekends. After that you'll get NO ENTRIES for the rest of the races you miss entries. The missed race picks will be the picks from the week before.
- 1 point for right pick in top 10, 4 points for correct slot. No points for picks during Qualy Races, actual race only.

Prizes
- $20 Entry fee, open until race 4 weekend is complete. Send to Mullen1989@hotmail.com with your CP handle.
- Most Total Points...Overall Champ...Trophy & first pick of prizes
- Second Most Total Points...second prize choice

You do not have to pay to play in the pool, just if you want a crack at the Trophy and Prizes.

I am in again this year

[FurnaceFace]

Yay. In. I’ll try and not Stroll it up so much this year.
$20 is fine by me.

[dammage79]

Won't be paying as I am a destitute lump but I'm in.

[3thirty]

I'm in, thanks again for the print!

[KelVarnsen]

Testing starts tomorrow!

[TimSJ]

I'll make my yearly donation to the pool. $20 is fine by me

[KelVarnsen]

Am I the only one watching testing right now?

[KelVarnsen]

In a attempt to make Monaco less boring, F1 has announced at mandatory two stops for the Monaco GP

That Ferrari is absolutely hideous.

Did they chance the regulations with the rear wings? They look very different than I remembered from last year.
