• Ferrari launches its 2025 car - but will it be a winner?

  We dive into the big talking point of Formula 1 pre-season as Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc drove the new Ferrari SF-25 for the first time at Fiorano today. Jon Noble joins Edd Straw moments after hearing Lewis Hamilton’s first full press conference as a Ferrari driver to explain why the claim he is “reinvigorated” holds water. Hamilton’s very obvious enthusiasm at being a Ferrari driver and confidence in it having everything it needs to be a world championship winner this year makes it very clear that he doesn’t for one moment regret leaving Mercedes.  We also explain the approach Ferrari has taken with the new car, with Gary Anderson casting his expert technical eye over what we’ve seen of the SF-25 so far.

• Our verdict on F1's huge launch event in London

  We react to Formula 1’s first-ever group launch event in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast. Jon Noble and Charley Williams join Edd Straw from the O2 Arena in London to appraise F1 75 and ask whether this one-off event could become a regular one. We pick out the teams that made the best (and worst) impressions with their segments and what we want to see more, or less, of in the future. We also gauge the crowd reaction and what it says about F1. And with plenty of news emerging from the day, we also ask if F1’s Monaco two-stop plan is a good one.  SPECIAL OFFER: Get 90% off your first month when you join The Race Members' Club on Patreon today - we even have an F1-only tier!

• Why McLaren has gone 'aggressive' with 2025 F1 car

  We tell all about the surprise launch of the first new Formula 1 car of 2025 - the McLaren MCL39 - in the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast.  First, Mark Hughes joins Edd Straw at a cold and blustery Silverstone to discuss McLaren’s prospects of the season and what drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, as well as team principal Andrea Stella, revealed about the season ahead.  And we also highlight the influence of a certain ex-Red Bull technical leader that is very clear in the approach it has taken this year.  Then, Gary Anderson joins us to give his detailed technical appraisal of the car and explain why he’s convinced by the direction the team has taken.  Want extra podcast content and to ask questions on the show?

• Previewing F1's 2025 launch season

  We look ahead to Formula 1’s imminent launch season in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.  Scott Mitchell-Malm and Ben Anderson join Edd Straw to explain how the time between now and the first day of testing in Bahrain on February 26 will play out.  The centrepiece of launch season is the F1 75 event at London’s O2 Arena on February 18, where all 10 teams will have a slot on stage to reveal their livery. We explain what to expect from that, and debate whether it will live up to fan expectations.  We also explain what cars we might see appearing before them, and the restrictions that mean it’s difficult to launch a genuine 2025 car before the big event in London.  And with just a small window between F1 75 and freight leaving for Bahrain, we run through the teams that will be revealing the cars in the days before testing starts.  Finally, we each pick out which car - or cars - we’re most looking forward to seeing break cover.
