5 F1 Drivers Cooking Under Pressure in 2025

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?

Whilst Kimi Antonelli's future looks brighter, George Russell and Toto Wolff are locking horns...and neither one are backing down.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe Russell vs Mercedes saga is heating up and whilst there seemingly HAS been progress...it's gotten very technical. Yes, Toto Wolff has publicly promised Kimi Antonelli a seat for 2026...verbally. On Italian TV. For now, it's not signed, sealed and delivered. Meanwhile, George Russell has gone from pushing for a multi-year deal to being offered a single-season extension with no conditions...yep. He's being given the Valtteri Bottas treatment.Without a deal done, Russell could walk...and Mercedes risk losing their proven leader at the very moment sponsors and car development need stability most. Is either party right to drag this out?#f1 #georgerussell #maxverstappen #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #totowolff #helmutmarko #f1news #f1updates #f1drivers #f1latest #redbullracing #redbullf1 #verstappen #mercedes #mercedesf1 #russell Can't watch the ladder?

Singapore is always pure theatre and the latest Leclerc-Ferrari rumours are a great opening act!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe 2025 Singapore Grand Prix is coming and the drama is already piling on DAYS before it. Rumours are swirling about Charles Leclerc potentially sounding out McLaren, Aston Martin and even Mercedes. With Ferrari’s performance under scrutiny, the barely mentioned condition to his contract extension is back in the news! Meanwhile, Max Verstappen has been speaking about Red Bull’s improved stability, which could mean that even if Yuki Tsunoda is for the chop...at least it will done be much more fairly than it was in history.Who else could stand to do well around Marina Bay? Do I suspect a top 5 repirsal for Carlos Sainz?

Max Verstappen just lit up this year's title race...even if he doesn't win it himself!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsA 22-second GT3 win in a Ferrari 296 has capped off a surging wave of fan momentum toward Max Verstappen. His recent triumph reads as pure racing freedom while McLaren’s “equal opportunity” script for Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri looks corporate. Zak Brown wants a grandstand finale...but it is becoming less and less genuine-looking.McLaren's boss is right.

Red Bull’s smartest play for 2026 might just be the move nobody expected...nothing!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsRed Bull Racing has been at the center of constant speculation...but the truth is, stability could be their greatest weapon heading into 2026. With Max Verstappen back in winning form and finally praising the team’s effort, panicked changes risk undoing the progress that has brought them back within reach of second in the Constructors. The bigger picture is all about timing. Rising stars like Arvid Lindblad and Nikola Tsolov are lining up for their shot, but forcing the issue too soon could repeat past mistakes. Giving them a full 2026 season in Formula 2 provides a clean head-to-head that decides who truly deserves the call-up in 2027. Meanwhile, the three seats (other than Verstappen's) are all to play for. The team having yet to make their choices. Here's a choice...no choice!#f1 #maxverstappen #isackhadjar #liamlawson #formula1 #formulaone #f12025 #redbullracing #redbull #lawson #tsunoda #honda #yukitsunoda #chinagp #ausgp #f1rumours #helmutmarko #f1news #f1latest #f1drama #f1updates #formula12025 Red Bull’s Best Play for 2026: Do Nothinghttps://youtu.be/7aNuRqH-MGECan't watch the ladder?

Sainz just lit the fuse on his Williams era with his podium. Safe to say it's on again!Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsCarlos Sainz’s return to the rostrum with Williams in Baku is proof that everything said up until now is REAL! He turned months of noise into a clean result. In his own words it wasn’t about anyone else. That mindset matches the team’s rise under James Vowles.It also strengthens Sainz’s reputation as an adaptable driver, a real partner of Alex Albon before 2026, the year where Williams expects to be hot property!#f1 #carlossainz #formula1 #scuderiaferrari #ferrari #williamsf1 #williamsracing #formulaone #f12025 #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #alexanderalbon #albon #sainz #lewishamilton #f1testing #azerbaijangp Carlos Sainz's revenge arc is BACK ONhttps://youtu.be/dccFtnkJMJcCan't watch the ladder?
