On this slow news day Ferrari and Alpine have launched their 2026 cars, Racing Bulls has signed tech director Dan Fallows, McLaren has been awarded $12m damages in the Palou case and Williams is missing the Barcelona shakedown. If anyone in #F1 has any bad news to bury, now's the time!

My take on Lando Norris' coming of age year. www.autosport.com/f1/news/norr... #F1

Thoughts and prayers with brand-new #F1 world champion Lando Norris, who is getting in the car at 9am sharp on Tuesday for Pirelli testing.

For the 24th and last time, my W's and L's straight from Yas Marina. Always a fun one to put together amid the post race chaos. And a privilege to be there. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/winn... #F1 #Abudhabigp

Champion's drive under pressure from Lando Norris.

Fifth consecutive #F1 world champion for Belgium. 🇧🇪

In case you were wondering...

Great opportunity for Patricio Owasa this.

Enjoyed having a long chat with #F1 2026's only rookie Arvid Lindblad - On his long-held conviction he would one day make it to F1 - Informing Lando Norris about it when he was 14 - A fateful phone call from Austria - How his family roots keep him grounded www.motorsport.com/f1/news/arvi...

Re: Red Bull's apology - Kimi Antonelli received over 1100 hate speech messages on his social media accounts, including death threats and homophobic slurs.

Can't think of a worse motor race than whatever this is. #F1 #QatarGP

Well this is massive fever. 🤩

Official - Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri disqualified from Las Vegas GP for excessive plank wear. #F1 Norris Piastri -24 Verstappen -24 Two rounds to go.

Valtteri Bottas walking a bride down the isle was not on my bingo card #F1 #LasVegasGP

The FIA's experienced head of aero Jason Somerville is understood to be heading to Alpine in the middle of next year after handing in his notice last week www.motorsport.com/f1/news/fia-... #F1

Lego is releasing a 201-piece F1 Academy set in 2026, and running a Lego branded car for NL's Esmee Kosterman.

What's up, Vegas!

Gabriel Bortoleto is using the heartbreak of failing to make qualifying at his very first Brazilian GP as fuel to become a more rounded #F1 driver www.motorsport.com/f1/news/posi...

As expected, official confirmation that Franco Colapinto will remain at Alpine for #F1 2026. Stabilised performances in difficult car plus commercial backing have earned him a seat for when Alpine expects to be a more competitive force. Team can then still play its part in spicy 2027 driver market.

This was fun to do, and write. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/a-da... #F1

Piastri, Norris +14, Verstappen +40 Tasty!

COTA and F1 have agreed a new eight-year contract extension to keep the USGP on the calendar until 2034. #F1

After a tricky start to #F1 2025 Sainz has now moved ahead of Albon in head-to-head qualifying. Bearman is running away from Ocon, Hulkenberg is reducing his gap to Bortoleto. Team by team comparisons (with the necessary caveats): www.motorsport.com/all/news/f1-...

By trying to control the uncontrollable, McLaren has gotten in its own way. Stop with the "repercussions" and let Norris and Piastri just get on with it.* www.motorsport.com/f1/news/opin... #F1 *As always, other opinions are available.

Confirmed: #F1 in the US is heading to Apple TV for the next five seasons www.motorsport.com/f1/news/appl...

On Piastri-Brown parc ferme radio, McLaren explained Piastri had already switched off the car before Brown started talking, so he never actually heard the McLaren CEO's message to begin with.

- Angry Alonso = best Alonso - The cork has been pulled out of McLaren's champagne - But Singapore also uncorked its drivers' intensifying title battle - Red Bull really is back, but Tsunoda is running out of time www.motorsport.com/f1/news/winn...

A real career highlight to be able to chat with Jacky Ickx in Monza about his wonderful 1970 Ferrari demo and everything it represents. A hero, a fount of wisdom but above all just a true gentleman. motorsport.com/f1/news/f1-i... #F1 #ItalianGP

"There is almost more satisfaction in the journey than in the achievement. Ultimately, it's the human interactions that give the real meaning and sense to what we achieve." www.motorsport.com/f1/news/andr...

Good chat with George Russell recently on his drive to make #F1 safer. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/excl...

Piastri senses he is in trouble. By trying to undercut Leclerc, he has inadvertently given Norris an opening to pass them both.

Bit of symbolism there with Max Verstappen throwing in the towel.... #F1 #HungarianGP

Amid Red Bull's malaise and Verstappen's conversations with Mercedes, it seems clear the fate of Christian Horner and that of its prime asset were inextricably linked. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/what... #F1

Interesting thoughts from Isack Hadjar as he weighs up the idea of one day partnering Max Verstappen at Red Bull #F1 www.motorsport.com/f1/news/isac...

There won't be a joint F1 season launch event for 2026. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/excl...

Another boring four-stop race. #F1 #SpanishGP /s

Ludicrously small margins in Spanish GP FP1. Less than two tenths separating Leclerc in sixth from the drop. 🤯 #F1

There will be a lot of talk about upgrades and front wings this weekend. I went to Racing Bulls in Faenza to find out how they are actually made, from A to Z. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/how-... #f1 #spanishgp

"Why do you live in Barcelona?"

I enjoyed this chat with one of #F1's biggest characters and I hope you do too. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/inte...
