The 2024 Formula One season is poised to be one of the most thrilling in recent memory. With ten teams and twenty drivers all aiming to dethrone Red Bull and Max Verstappen, fans are in for a high-octane year of motorsport action. Every single practice, qualifying session, sprint, and race will be broadcast live on SuperSport, ensuring that fans won’t miss a moment of the excitement.
The Scene
Last season, Max Verstappen dominated the F1 circuit like no other, securing his third consecutive World Driver’s Championship. He shattered records with an astounding 18 wins, 21 podiums, and 12 pole positions, breaking Alberto Ascari’s win percentage record with 86.35% versus Ascari’s 75% in 1952. As the new season unfolds, all eyes will be on Verstappen and Red Bull to see if they can maintain their dominance.
However, the spotlight will also be on seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton, who is entering his final year with Mercedes before making a high-profile move to Ferrari in 2025. Hamilton’s performance this season will be closely watched as he seeks to reclaim his status at the top of the sport.
Teams and Drivers
Ferrari has the daunting task of halting the Red Bull juggernaut and will take heart from being the only team other than Red Bull to secure a Grand Prix victory last year. Meanwhile, Mercedes, after two challenging seasons, are cautiously optimistic about their prospects, believing they have finally developed a car capable of competing at the highest level.
McLaren’s drivers, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, have both highlighted Ferrari and Red Bull as the teams to beat, suggesting that these two giants are currently a step ahead. However, McLaren remains hopeful of making significant strides and disrupting the established order.
