    The Formula 1 world championship began in 1950 and is considered the world’s leading form of single-seater motorsport. The 2025 F1 season is the 75th time the world championship has been held. [caption id="attachment_530322" align="alignright" width="470"] The 2025 Formula 1 season starts in Australia[/caption]A world drivers’ champion has been crowned every year since the series began. Since 1958 a world constructors’ championship title has also been awarded. The most successful F1 drivers in history are seven-times world champions Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher. In 2021 the former became the first and so far only driver to date to win 100 grands prix. While Schumacher retired from F1 at the end of 2012, Hamilton continues to race. His rival world champions in the series are Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso. There are 10 teams active in the championship, each of which field cars for two drivers. Each team is required to design and build the majority of its cars but may source some parts including engines, gearboxes and certain other components.

  • F2
    Formula 2 is considered the foremost single-seater feeder series to Formula 1. F2 has existed in three different guises over the years. Until 1984 the championship was an open series for manufacturers of different chassis, engines and tyres. However that championship was phased out and replaced by Formula 3000. F2 was later revived as a one-make series between 2009. However the series failed to attain the prominence of GP2, which had replaced F3000 and raced almost exclusively on the F1 support bill. The new F2 lasted just four seasons. In 2016 Liberty Media took over the running of F1 and purchased GP2, then rebranded it as Formula 2 in 2017.

    The most famous IndyCar race is the Indianapolis 500, held annually at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in front of huge crowds. However American open-wheel racing has a chequered history. The championship reached its peak in the late eighties and early nineties under the sanctioning body CART. It attracted huge international attention as Formula 1 champions including Nigel Mansell, Emerson Fittipaldi and Mario Andretti competed in it. However the creation of the rival Indy Racing League in 1996 created a split which badly damaged the championship. CART, which rebranded as Champ Car, fell into decline. By 2008, with Champ Car on the bring of collapse, the two series finally merged, but the damage had been. Nonetheless today’s IndyCar championship retains a reputation for spectacular racing with its single-specification chassis and features a broad range of circuits including road, street and traditional American oval courses.
