F1 75 O2 EVENT!

Car launches are the most exciting part of the new racing season and there’s a revolution coming in 2025!!! Motorsport world will host a collective launch featuring all 10 teams as part of the World Championship 75th Anniversary celebration at the O2 arena in London on February 18th. This is going to be a huge departure from what came before and if it works could be transformative for how motorsport kicks off its new season, what the fans are treated to and what the media will get out of it. Make sure to let us know what you think of this in the future of fan experiences.
BWT ALPINE ‘ABANDONS’ RENAULT!

Alpine has reached an agreement with Mercedes to use the German automakers’ power unit from 2026 through at-least the 2030 season as a part of their deal. Is this yet another signal enforcing the Mercedes engine strength for 2026? Alpine will also adopt Mercedes gearbox in 2026 though they are expected to begin producing their own gearbox inhouse starting in 2026. Alpine announced plans to close their in-house engine program at the end of the upcoming season as part of their Hyper-tech transformation strategy prior to finalizing the deal with Mercedes Alpine had been exploring options with other engine suppliers with Mercedes ultimately emerging as the preferred partner.
ENOUGH OF MONACO?!

Arguably the track that provided us with the best sleep on Sunday in the 2024 season is going to continue this noble service till 2031 season. Chatter around dropping Monaco is no way newfound as overtaking has long been impossible and Saturday has long been the only ever exciting part about the entire weekend. However the history and cultures invested in Monaco overtime is just too much to abandon from the world of racing and one can only hope for a format change to be brought in future to add some level of spice to the one of the triple crown.
DRIVERS’ DESPISE FOR VEGAS!

99% SHOW AND 1% SPORT.
The buzz around the paddock ahead of the Las Vegas Grand Prix has sparked a deeper conversation about the evolving identity of motorsport. Is this glitzy spectacle a necessary adaptation in a commercially driven world, or does it stray too far from the essence of racing? The Las Vegas Grand Prix is more than just a race—it symbolizes Formula 1’s ongoing transformation, where the pursuit of commercial success and entertainment value increasingly clashes with the sport’s traditional racing ethos. Never before has the tension between competitive integrity and commercial priorities been so stark.
