Haas Looks to Fix Aero Issues with Fast-Tracked Floor Update

Haas is rolling the dice in Japan, rushing a critical floor update to Suzuka in a desperate bid to fix the high-speed aero instability that crippled them in Melbourne. With no time for full wind tunnel testing, team boss Ayao Komatsu admits the change is a gamble, one that could make all the difference or none at all. “We had to bring something, we couldn’t just show up and hope,” he said, emphasizing that FP1 will reveal whether the fix works or if Haas is in for another brutal weekend.

Their strong showing in China masked the VF-25’s issues thanks to a smoother track, but Suzuka’s high-speed corners will expose whether Haas has truly made progress or if their bouncing nightmare continues. “We had to shortcut the process,” Komatsu admitted, knowing the risks of such a rushed upgrade.

This weekend, it’s all or nothing. Haas is fighting to stay in the midfield hunt,but will this update be their saving grace or another setback?

FP1 will have the answers.

Russell Admits Surprise at Pace of Mercedes’ Car as He Predicts ‘Interesting Test’ for Team in Japan

George Russell admits Mercedes’ strong start to 2025 has been a welcome surprise, but he’s not getting carried away just yet. With back-to-back podiums and the Silver Arrows sitting second in the standings, Russell knows Ferrari and Red Bull haven’t fully shown their hand. “We don’t want to get ahead of ourselves,” he said ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix, where Suzuka will serve as a critical benchmark for the team’s progress. “We’ve been strong in Qualifying, and our race pace in China was encouraging, but this season is long, and things change fast.”

Meanwhile, rookie Kimi Antonelli is tackling his first race at the legendary circuit, focusing on refining his Qualifying performance and tyre management. “The approach is the same—\, keep learning, keep improving. This track is all about confidence,” the 18-year-old said, as he continues to settle into F1.

Despite McLaren’s early dominance, Russell sees potential in Mercedes’ steady progress, but he remains mindful of the ever-changing competitive landscape. “McLaren is exceptionally strong, but we saw last year how quickly things can shift. We just need to keep doing our job and stay in the fight.”

The battle at the front is heating up, Suzuka is next. Buckle up.

Lando Norris Hits Out at F1 Rivals for Talking “Crap” About McLaren

Lando Norris isn’t here for the nonsense. After McLaren’s red-hot start to 2025, rivals like George Russell are already calling them unbeatable. Norris? He’s calling BS. “People just like to talk crap,” he said ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix, shutting down claims that McLaren has already locked up both titles.

Yes, they’ve won the first two races, and yes, Norris leads the championship, but he’s not buying into the hype. “Red Bull was way further ahead last year than we are now. The fact that people are saying this just shows how far we’ve come.” And as for McLaren already switching focus to 2026? Norris says that’s laughable. “We’re still pushing. We want to increase our advantage, not settle.”

But he does admit McLaren now has a target on their back, and he’s here for it. “Mercedes had that for years. We’re still new to it, but it’s motivating. We know people love to talk and say random things, but we focus on the facts.”

With McLaren 19 points clear in the constructors’ and Norris eight ahead of Verstappen, the battle is just getting started.

'Must Be the Water’ - New theory for Ferrari Disqualification Surfaces

Ferrari’s nightmare in China just took a bizarre turn. Turns out it wasn’t just strategy and aggressive setups that led to their double disqualification. According to team boss Fred Vasseur, Charles Leclerc’s drinking bottle leaked mid-race, costing him a crucial kilogram in weight, tipping him under the legal limit.

Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton’s DSQ came from Ferrari pushing the ride height too far in pursuit of performance, leading to excessive skid plank wear. “The aim is to push every limit, but we went too far,” Vasseur admitted.

Leclerc, already struggling with Ferrari’s underwhelming pace, called the DSQs a “big pain” and emphasized how much they hurt the team’s early-season momentum. With just two races down and Ferrari already battling uphill, their title challenge is on shaky ground.

Now, all eyes turn to Suzuka, where they desperately need a clean weekend. No strategy blunders, no setup miscalculations, oh, and maybe double-check those drink bottles while they’re at it.

Lewis Hamilton Says Suggestions He Has Lost Faith in Ferrari are "Complete Rubbish" After Early Setbacks

Lewis Hamilton has had enough of the rumors. He’s not losing faith in Ferrari, and he’s making sure everyone knows it. After a strategy blunder in Australia and a frustrating disqualification in China, whispers started circulating that the seven-time world champion might already be questioning his move from Mercedes. But Hamilton shut that down fast. “Complete rubbish,” he said, doubling down on his belief in the team. “I have absolute 100% faith in this team.”

Sure, the hype was massive when Hamilton joined the Scuderia, and some fans expected instant wins. But he insists he never did. “I know that I’m coming into a new culture, a new team, and it’s going to take time.” Despite setbacks, he’s focused on the bigger picture. “We take the highs and lows together,” he added after spending time at Ferrari’s factory this week. “It’s about how we progress from here.”

Now, as the F1 circus heads to Japan, Ferrari is under pressure to bounce back. Can Hamilton and the Prancing Horse start turning things around at Suzuka?

Alpine Announce F1 Driver Swap at Japanese Grand Prix

Alpine is making waves at the Japanese Grand Prix by swapping Jack Doohan for local hero Ryo Hirakawa in FP1! This move is part of F1’s new rule requiring teams to run rookie drivers twice a season, but it's also a sign of the growing pressure on Doohan after a rough start to 2025.

Hirakawa, who made his F1 debut with McLaren, will get his chance to shine in front of his home crowd, hoping to impress Alpine and fans alike. Doohan will return for FP2, but with reserve drivers like Franco Colapinto and Paul Aron waiting in the wings, his seat is far from secure.

Can Doohan bounce back and prove himself? Or will Hirakawa’s performance in his home Grand Prix set the stage for a change in Alpine’s driver lineup? All eyes will be on the A525 this weekend!

Red Bull's Yuki Tsunoda is the Latest in a Long Line of Japanese Seeking F1 Success

Yuki Tsunoda steps onto the biggest stage of his career this weekend, his Red Bull debut at his home Grand Prix in Japan. The stakes couldn’t be higher. No Japanese driver has ever won an F1 race, and the last time one stood on a podium was over a decade ago. Now, with the weight of expectation on his shoulders, Tsunoda has the chance to rewrite history. His task? Stick as close as possible to Max Verstappen and prove he belongs at the top.

But the season has already thrown surprises. McLaren has surged ahead, with Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri splitting wins in the first two races. Verstappen is lurking in second place, while Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton, a five-time winner in Japan, is still searching for momentum after his disqualification in China. Meanwhile, Red Bull is bidding farewell to Honda with a special white-liveried car before switching to Ford next season. Will Tsunoda be able to give his longtime engine supplier a proper sendoff?

Suzuka has always been a battleground for legends, from Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost to Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel. Now, it’s Tsunoda’s turn to take center stage. Can he rise to the occasion, silence the doubters, and deliver a performance Japan has been waiting for? Or will history once again prove how tough it is for a Japanese driver to break through at the very top? One thing’s for sure: Suzuka is about to witness a showdown for the ages.

F1 Star Lando Norris Has Embarrassing Moment In Front Of Fans In Japan

Lando Norris might be leading the championship, but gravity isn’t on his side. Ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix, the McLaren star had an unfortunate (and hilarious) moment when he nearly faceplanted while stepping out of a van in front of his adoring Japanese fans. The culprit? A rogue seatbelt that wrapped around his foot like a stubborn octopus.

To his credit, Norris recovered like a pro, because what else can you do when dozens of cameras are watching? Some of us would’ve called it a day and booked the next flight home, but not Lando. He powered through, proving once again that resilience is key, whether it’s on the track or on the sidewalk.

Now, all eyes are on him as he leads the championship and prepares for one of the most demanding circuits on the calendar. Let’s just hope he’s a little smoother getting into his car than he was getting out of that van.

Zak Brown Says McLaren Took Advantage of ‘Destabilized’ Red Bull During Christian Horner’s Texting Scandal

The chaos at Red Bull wasn’t just headline drama—, t was an opportunity, and Zak Brown knew exactly how to play it. While Christian Horner was caught in a media firestorm over his texting scandal, McLaren was quietly gaining ground, using the turmoil to their advantage. "Instability in a rival team is an opportunity," Brown admitted, revealing how McLaren capitalized on Red Bull’s internal struggles to gain an “unexpected advantage” in their quest for the constructors’ title.

Formula 1 has never just been about speed, it’s a ruthless game of politics, timing, and strategy. Brown was one of Horner’s loudest critics during the controversy, calling for transparency and swift action. But behind the scenes, McLaren was laser-focused. “If a competitor is distracted, we move forward,” Brown said, emphasizing how off-track chaos can create on-track opportunities.

The result? While Red Bull stumbled through rumors, speculation, and internal investigations, McLaren kept pushing forward. And by the end of the season, it was McLaren, not Red Bull, lifting the constructors’ championship trophy for the first time since 1998. A season of power, precision, and perfectly timed ex*****on.
