F1 2023: Star drivers, standout teams and surprise stories – Our writers give their predictions ahead of the new F1 season
Share
It’ll shortly be lights out and away we go for the 2023 campaign, as teams and drivers return to the track in Bahrain after pre-season testing. As the opening race approaches, we asked our writers to offer up some expert insight and bold predictions for the year ahead…
Which team were your star of testing?
Will Buxton (F1 Digital Presenter): Everyone is going to say Aston Martin, and there’s no escaping how impressive their test was. But I said last week and I stand by my feeling that Alfa Romeo also had a lot to be happy about. Okay, so there were a few gremlins that crept in, but the car looked very together and the drivers had very positive feedback on it. I’d also tip my hat to Williams, who had one of their most reliable and positive pre-seasons in quite some time.
