I definitely feel we are watching a " Star " in the making with Kimi 2.0 ! Antonelli has scored points in every race but one and now at 18 he is the youngest to ever win the " Pole " for a F1 race, eclipsing the record held by Vettel. It will be interesting to see how he does in the Sprint Race starting on the front row and if he does well can the momentum transfer over to full race qualifying for Sunday's Miami Grand Prix.

Raikkonen has to be enjoying the young driver doing so well , when it is obvious he is the namesake for Antonelli!

From today's WSJ, a subjective piece naming F1 cars that made significant impacts:

Great article and interesting to see how many wins each chassis has garnered. When one views that today's machines are ripping around tracks propelled by 1080 HP and pulling similar G's to some fighter aircraft , it is amazing to me the physical shape the drivers have to be in.

On the Miami Grand Prix front, Kimi Antonelli qualified in 3rd for the race , ahead of his teammate George Russell --- definitely the hot rookie of 2025!

All of the above so very true!

I think this resignation sets up Doohan being swapped for Colapinto .

That didn't take long , Doohan out and Colapinto in it's now official . But only for 5 races per the article .

" As the Pirellis Turn, " the billion dollar soap opera is in full swing early in 2025. Restructuring the Red Bull Team when the it is still one of the top groups seems a bit drastic, and if Horner is out the restructuring, regardless of who comes in, means a period of adjustment. This move, even early in the Season, could derail the winning system Horner has implemented over the past two decades. Whether one likes him or not, he has had a legacy that is going to be difficult to emulate.

I, for one, would miss the flow of feces between Horner, Wolff, et al...... F1 would need to hold auditions for a replacement.
