After a fast-paced start to the season across three continents, Formula 1 is now in its spiritual home: Europe.
Lando Norris made the perfect start to his title challenge in Australia as he looks to dethrone reigning champion Max Verstappen.
The first sprint weekend of the 2025 campaign followed, with Lewis Hamilton recording his maiden win with Ferrari in the condensed race in China. However, it was McLaren who cleaned up in the Grand Prix race, with Oscar Piastri taking the chocolates ahead of Norris.
Verstappen got on the board in the third race in Japan as he continued his dominance at Suzuka to edge the McLaren duo.
Piastri hit back in impressive fashion, earning three consecutive wins in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Miami. At Imola, Verstappen overtook his rival on the opening lap before claiming a fourth consecutive win at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. Monaco bore witness to a masterful qualifying lap from Norris, who then took the chequered flag.
Below, The Sporting News will keep you updated with the drivers' and constructors' championship standings throughout 2025.
