F1 Oversteer has taken a look into each team’s confirmed driver line-up for the 2025 Formula 1 season as the 20-strong grid for next season already begins to take shape.
Teams have moved early in 2024 to set their line-ups for next year to get a jump start on the driver market. Ferrari were the first team to move when they confirmed that Charles Leclerc signed a new contract in January. McLaren also gave Lando Norris fresh terms in January.
Ferrari even doubled down to set their 2025 driver line-up in February when they confirmed that Lewis Hamilton had agreed to leave Mercedes. The seven-time F1 champion also signed a multi-year contract for the Scuderia to replace Carlos Sainz in red after the 2024 season.
Several seats remain up for grabs for 2025 up and down the Formula 1 grid, though. So, with that in mind, F1 Oversteer has taken a look at each team’s confirmed driver line-up for 2025.
Red Bull 2025 driver line-up: Max Verstappen and TBC
At the time of writing, Red Bull are yet to set their full driver line-up for the 2025 Formula 1 season. Max Verstappen is under contract in Milton Keynes through the 2028 campaign. But Red Bull’s other racer, Sergio Perez, is among the many F1 drivers out of contract after 2024.
Mercedes 2025 driver line-up: George Russell and TBC
At the time of writing, Mercedes are yet to confirm their full 2025 driver line-up with Lewis Hamilton leaving. The Silver Arrows are still to replace the Briton, leaving George Russell as their only driver under contract beyond 2024. Yet Russell only has a deal through 2025, too.
Ferrari 2025 driver line-up: Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton
Ferrari confirmed their 2025 driver line-up in February 2024 by tempting Lewis Hamilton to join from Mercedes. The Scuderia handed the seven-time F1 drivers’ champion a multi-year deal to replace Carlos Sainz, who was already due to be out of contract after the 2024 term.
Charles Leclerc also signed a new contract with Ferrari in January 2024 that ties him to the team through 2029. But his deal has potential break clauses that could see the Monegasque depart sooner. Leclerc was out of contract after 2024 before agreeing to sign the extension.
McLaren 2025 driver line-up: Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri
McLaren locked in their driver line-up through at least the 2026 season in January 2024 with Lando Norris signing a new contract through at least the 2028 campaign. The Woking squad had already locked Oscar Piastri down through at least the 2026 season in September 2023.
Aston Martin 2025 driver line-up: Fernando Alonso and TBC
Aston Martin announced that Fernando Alonso signed a new contract with the team to stay through at least the 2026 season in April 2024. He was due to be out of contract after 2024 having joined from Alpine to replace Sebastian Vettel on an initial two-year contract in 2023.
But, at the time of writing, Aston Martin are yet to confirm their full driver line-up for 2025. Lance Stroll is out of contract after the 2024 season as the Canadian races on a rolling one-year deal. But as he is the son of Aston Martin’s team owner, Stroll will likely stay next year.
Alpine 2025 driver line-up: TBC and TBC
At the time of writing, Alpine are yet to confirm their driver line-up for the 2025 Formula 1 season. Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon will both be out of contract at Alpine after the 2024 campaign. Gasly moved to Enstone in 2023, where Ocon joined while still Renault in 2020.
