STRAIGHT TALK

2021 SEASON PREVIEW • New names, new faces, new colours. Formula 1 is back, and we’ve got the lowdown on all the key storylines this season – plus an in-depth look at every race that’s (hopefully) coming up…

1.1 THE CARS ARE NOT REALLY FROZEN • If you thought this would be a stopgap season before the new formula arrives in 2022, think again. There’s going to be a frantic scramble to claw back performance lost to new aerodynamic restrictions – and it’s all within the rules…

WHAT YOU CAN ALTER FOR 2021 • Formula 1’s ‘token’ system enables teams to correct design blunders from last year – but they’ve got to choose carefully…

HOW DOES THE NEW BUDGET CAP WORK?

2.1 TRADING PLACES • When the pandemic pushed Formula 1 into hiatus a year ago, the driver-market cogs carried on turning behind the scenes… culminating in three drivers spending a whole season racing for teams they knew they’d be leaving, and a certain double world champion readying himself for a dramatic comeback…

RED BULL’S POST-HONDA FUTURE

NEW OWNERS, NEW APPROACH FOR WILLIAMS

4.1 BATTLE OF THE TITANS • There may be a huge rules reset coming within a handful of months, but that’s not going to stop F1’s most fiercely competitive outfits tearing lumps out of each other from race one…

WIN WIN REPEAT • Mercedes has been the team to beat since 2014 – but it’s taking no chances this season in the face of a renewed challenge from Red Bull

BOTTAS VS RUSSELL: ON A WING(MAN) AND A PRAYER

4.2 THE CHALLENGERS • For the past four seasons Red Bull has come on strong in the final races – but only after starting from a low bar. This year, says team principal Christian Horner, it’s ready to come tearing out of the blocks…
