The hunt for the world championship title begins in Australia: Formula 1 is starting “Down Under” with the race in Melbourne for the first time since the 2019 season. From March 14th, defending champion Max Verstappen (Red Bull) and his rivals will fight for victories in the “premier class” of racing.

Everything indicates a gripping four -time fight between the teams. Already over the past season, at least McLaren’s class leader Red Bull was at least equal.
There are again six sprint races: in China, Miami, Belgium, Austin, Brazil and Qatar will be Sprint-Quali and Sprintren races part of the race weekend. Belgium replaces Austria, which still had the sprint in 2024.
