Red Bull

Max Verstappen is locked into a long-term deal albeit with an escape clause if Helmut Marko also leaves. Versta𒐪ppen insists an exit won't happen.

Just a week before Christmas, Sergio Perez's departure was announc💦ed following a poor 2024 camp🧜aign.

A day later, Liam Lawson was announced as his replacement. But after two poor rounds in Australia and Chꦑina to kickstart𝓰 2025, Lawson was also axed and sent back to Racing Bulls.

Yuki Tsu🌱noda, initially🐈 overlooked, was given the chance to partner Verstappen.

Ferrari

Leღwis H🐓amilton's huge move to Ferrari in 2025 is the blockbuster move which the driver market rested upon.

He will partner Charles Lec🎉lerc who also penned a long-term deal to stay.

Carlos Sainz lost his seat as a result of Ham🌠ilton's arrival.

Mercedes

George Russell is committed until the end of 2025, while teenage sensation Andrea Kimi Antonelli will graduate from F2 after just a single season t🌳o r🅠eplace the Ferrari-bound Hamilton. 

McLaren

McLaren's exciting duo of Lando Norris and Oscar Piast🙈ri are on long-term contracts.

Aston Martin

Lance Stroll, the son of billionaire owner Lawrence Stroll, signed a deal into next year "and beyo🐈nd".

Fernando Alonso has a deal with Asᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚꦇᩚᩚton Martin covering the 2025 and 2026 seasons. 

Williams

Williams impressively won the race to sign Sainz.

Sainz was ousted at Ferrari by Hamilton and spent the first half of 2024 surveying options which included 𝓀Mercedes, Red Bull, Sauber and Alpinཧe.

As those 🐬options narrowed he placed his faith in James Vowles' team.

Star driౠver 🐬Alex Albon is admired by top teams but reaffirmed his commitment to Williams.

Williams had Franco Cola💖pinto in their car for the latter part of 2024, since he replaced Logan Sargeant. Colapinto has no drive for 2025, and there is no space at Williams, but he is of interest t🙈o their rivals.

Alpine

Pierre Gasly has signe🍸d a new long-꧑term Alpine contract.

Jack Doohan was then confirmed as Esteban♏ Ocon's replacement🐻. Doohan will drive in his rookie season in 2025. 

But rumours swiftly emerg෴ed he c🍎ould lose his spot to Franco Colapinto, who Alpine signed as a reserve driver.

After six ಌgra🌞nds prix in 2025, Flavio Briatore made the decision to swap Doohan out, and put Colapinto in their car.

Racing Bulls

Yuki Tsunoda started the season in the Racing Bulls but, after two ra🀅ces, was swapped with Red Bull's Liam Lawson.

Lawson waಌs returned to the team he was promoted from at the end of last year🍸.

Formula 2 runner-up Isack Hadjar made his F1 🐭debut in 2025. 

Sauber

Nico Hul💯kenberg will join Sauber, from Haas, in 2025 on a multi-year deal.

Gabriel Bortoleto✅, who is driving in Formula 2 this year, has got the nod to become Hulkenberg's teammate. Bortoleto will enter his rookie F1 season next year.

Sauber's Valtteri Bottas and Guanyu Zhou were 🍌out of contract released from the team.

Sauber will become Audi from 2✤026, and the German giant has big plans.

Haas

Hulkenberg will leave for S𝓰auber. Ke♕vin Magnussen is also out of contract, and Haas have confirmed he will exit.

Ferrari junior Oliver Bearman, who impressed h🍰ugely on his F1 debut as a replacement for the ill Sainz, has been rewarded with a full-time drive at Haas as Hulkenberg's replacement.

Ocon has𝔉 been signed from Alpine to t𝓀eam with Bearman.
