F1 2019 Season

Netflix has confirmed the second season of the no-holds-barred documentary Formula 1: Drive to Survive will premiere on the streaming service on February 28.

The 2018 F1 season has only seven races left. With one eye on 2019 then, teams are trying to nail down their driver contracts.

It’s official: Red Bull and Honda will join forces in Formula One beginning in 2019. The engine deal covers the 2019 and 2020 seasons, right up to the end of the current regulations. With F1 returning to Circuit Paul Ricard this weekend, the news is sure to set the mood.

Formula One is coming to the city of Miami for the 2019 season. Proposed earlier this month, F1 and the Miami City Commission met to approve plans for the GP. The current deal sees the circus running around the circuit for ten years, 2019-2028.

The 2019 season of F1 continues to surprise with potential changes to the sport. Already confirmed is a fuel increase, allowing the cars to race harder. Simpler aero aimed at making overtaking easier and to encourage closer racing is another change making way next season.

This is it. Beginning in 2019, F1 aerodynamics look to become a lot simpler. The reasoning is simple: to encourage closer racing and make overtaking easier.

If this season weren’t enough already, Red Bull has begun talks with Honda for an engine deal in 2019.

Following this past weekend’s chaotic Chinese GP, F1 has revealed its plans for next year. This isn’t the first we’ve heard of a change to the 2019 season. Proposed earlier this month, the main intent was to address overtaking.

F1 returns this weekend for the Bahrain Grand Prix, the second race of the season. The events of Australia have already caused a stir, as both Haas and Mercedes have come under fire. Discussions around the inaugural race continue, albeit now the focus is on overtaking.
