My 2024 F1 Driver Market Predictions

McLaren might be walking straight into Max Verstappen's trap...and long-time supporter Mario Andretti did not help their cause.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMax Verstappen (and maybe George Russell) is turning the tables on McLaren’s title charge and Lando Norris suddenly finds himself under more pressure than ever. Perhaps left to his own destiny amidst massive scrutiny aimed at the McLaren pitwall. As Red Bull refines its car and Verstappen sharpens his focus, McLaren’s internal balance between Norris and Oscar Piastri is beginning to look fragile...and what's going on OUTSIDE Formula 1 is only making it worse.#f1 #landonorris #formula1 #f12025 #maxvertappen #oscarpiastri #andretti #mclaren #mclarenf1team #redbullracing #redbullf1 #f1news #f1latest #formula12025 #f1updates #f1teams #f1drivers #papayarules #f1drama #marioandretti McLaren CALLED OUT By F1 Legend Over Driver Favouritismhttps://youtu.be/mjZWDrVlyQQGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

Red Bull is playing the long game in F1 and it might keep Max Verstappen with them. Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff Laurent Mekies has Red Bull focusing on developing, not causing drama...or at least drama OFF-TRACK. The team is stacking targeted updates, front wing ones especially, to be ready in time for 2026 when it comes to the grind of developing future cars. I think that's a pretty good idea, going all-in now and coping through the short-term issues before coming back strong in 2027.With Max Verstappen fully engaged the factory has a clear yardstick. If Red Bull is using late season running as a live lab the gains could be rapid against Mercedes and others.#f1 #maxverstappen #formula1 #formulaone #redbullracing #redbullf1 #verstappen #mclaren #zakbrown #oscarpiastri #landonorris #f1news #f12025 #f12026 #f1latest #f1updates #yukitsunoda #f1drama #f1teams #f1cars #f1drivers Can't watch the ladder?

Aston Martin slams the door on Christian Horner’s reported $100M bid for control.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsChristian Horner’s most speculated path back to the pit wall hit a wall. Reports say he pitched a $100M package to Aston Martin for a stake and the CEO role, yet Andy Cowell said there are absolutely no plans for Horner in any capacity. Money wasn't the issue, it was perhaps the potential baggage that came with the man...or are Aston Martin happy with who they've got already.This moment feels bigger than one job offer. F1 looks to be drifting from the era of celebrity bosses toward engineer led leadership and cleaner power structures. Haas passed, Aston has now passed and Williams kept the nicest version of a maybe.Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAff#f1 #christianhorner #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #astonmartin #astonmartinf1 #redbullracing #redbullf1 #lawrencestroll #stroll #lancestroll #fernandoalonso #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1teams #f1drivers #f1drama Aston Martin Rejects Horner’s $100M Power Playhttps://youtu.be/7wYZ2YiTyywCan't watch the ladder?

Ferrari and the Tifosi wants a louder leader and the paddock can feel it.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsFerrari’s season has turned into a hunt for authority as the SF-25’s China ousting regarding ride height exposed deeper problems which has now left Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton mere "passengers". Italy is aching for a modern Scuderia figurehead on the level of Schumacher or Lauda which has failed to materalise in 20 years in full force...Kimi Raikkonen continuing to be its last champion. Whispers around leadership have cracked the aura, which is why the rumour mill keeps spinning toward a reset. That is where Oscar Piastri enters...and why the rumours about him coming in for 2027 which have spread aren't as mad as you might think.#f1 #oscarpiastri #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #mclarenf1 #mclarenf1team #scuderiaferrari #charlesleclerc #lewishamilton #ferrarif1 #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #f12026 #papayarules Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffOscar Piastri to Ferrari Isn’t as Crazy as You Thinkhttps://youtu.be/xtopaUVpL3oCan't watch the ladder?

McLaren won the team title in Singapore...but the team looks fragile regardless.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren’s win came with fresh contact between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri which passed without issue and a mounting perception that the pit wall tilts toward Lando. The pattern from Hungary 2024 may show how “hard racing” and team unity may be masking deeper trust issues. Despite the team achieving a major milestone given their history, Piastri's championship bid is being constrained and his feeling unheeded...and whoever decided to allow Norris onto the podium for the special celebration did not help matters.Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAff#f1 #landonorris #singaporegp #formula1 #f1news #f1latest #formulaone #singaporegrandprix #charlesleclerc #f1predictions #predictions #maxverstappen #redbullracing #mclaren #oscarpiastri #redbull #f12025 #formula12025 #f1drama #f1updates McLaren's Lost Control Of Itselfhttps://youtu.be/06xTN3osy4wCan't watch the ladder?

The gloves are off and McLaren might live to regret it.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsGeorge Russell owned Singapore as Mercedes nailed a no Safety Car race while McLaren locked the 2025 constructors but lit a fuse within their own garage. Lando Norris went full send on Lap 1, clipped Verstappen then brushed Piastri and the stewards called it hard racing...and the papaya rulebook looked flimsy.Momentum matters now. Mercedes trend up on warm up and straight line and McLaren has a title with a driver dynamic that will get louder in Austin.

Alex Dunne just walked away from McLaren...and it's made them mad!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren has parted ways with rookie standout Alex Dunne before the F2 season for 2025 is over. Huh? The fallout hits every corner of the grid. Dunne isn't a slowpoke either, he's in Formula 2's top 5 and ahead of all the Red Bull juniors. However, with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri locked in for years, there was obviously no room upwards...and Dunne was done waiting. McLaren is a glass house.But what does thi means for Liam Lawson, Yuki Tsunoda and Isack Hadjar? What does it say about Zak Brown’s program...not good signs at all. #f1 #mclarenf1 #formula1 #formulaone #singaporegp #alexanderdunne #alexdunne #oscarpiastri #landonorris #mclarenf1team #f2 #formula2 #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #arvidlindblad #redbullracing #maxverstappen #yukitsunoda #liamlawson #isackhadjar #redbullf1 McLaren Just Rage Quit On Alex Dunnehttps://youtu.be/envUTMWBUzUCan't watch the ladder?

The numbers are starting to say that Franco Colapinto deserves another go in 2026.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsFranco Colapinto replaced Jack Doohan and sits last in the standings of active drivers, yet his head-to-head with Pierre Gasly tells a different story. Tighter than it was between Gasly and Doohan and it’s coming inside a chaotic Alpine setup which is only now starting to regain some stability.There are reasons to maintain Colapinto alongside the Frenchman, including his Mercedes experience from the Williams program that fit with Alpine’s 2026 plans. With Alpine short on clear alternatives and Franco often near Gasly on raw pace, there’s a strong case to keep him.#f1 #francocolapinto #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #colapinto #flaviobriatore #pierregasly #gasly #paularon #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #f1drivers #formula12025 #alpinef1 #alpine #alpinef1team I Want To Talk About Franco Colapintohttps://youtu.be/2JOhvoIbi0ECan't watch the ladder?
