2025 Season Outlook - Who would dominate?

We have seen the cars and greeted by new conduct rules for 2025. And we have been wowed by the Hamilton Ferrari union. What does the 2025 season hold in stock for us. Well, it promises to be closer, with eight drivers with a short at the driver's title. And four teams with a chance of winning the constructors title. I have seen enough youtubers daring to predict the outcome of the season before pre-season testing. A preseason preview of the season can be seen in the article - The-ferrari-hamilton-formular-c950d87bcb86

What is your initial predictions for the drivers title?
What is your prediction for the constructors?

The closest at the end of the season wins a set of alloy wheels?

My pick to win the drivers' championships is Charles Leclerc and for the constructors' championship, McLaren is likely to finish at the top followed closely by Ferrari.

Until the lights go out, we just can't be sure. But based on testing I don't think anyone is going to dominate. All indications are that it should be a fairly tight season.

Right now I think McLaren has the edge for the WDC. Ferrari, Merc, and RB are close enough to change things as the year progresses though. And I'm someowhat expecting some fireworks at both McLaren and Ferarri. Oscar showed last year that he will stick it to Lando now and then, and the Ferrari pair will probably make Fred insane fairlly quickly I suspect. So as strange as it might seem, I'm giving the WCC nod to McLaren, but not by much.

As for the WDC, Max or George as a second. I think the others will pull points off each other too much, and the ones not fighting within the team will slide through to gain more points, even if in a lesser car. George might have some issues with Kimi as well if testing was an indication, but I think George will have increased confidence after beating Lewis 2 of 3 seasons.

No clue but I think we will see more race winners this season than in we have in a long time.

I hope so. It was impressive to see seven winners last season, and the potential seems there to raise that even more.

But with only five days until we see cars on track it's going to be great either way. I suspect that only McLaren and Ferrari will be fighting for the win at this track, but maybe other teams were sandbagging.
