The F1 2025 season is officially underway. Join Patrick and Brian on the Hard Compound.

It's all about rumors, predictions, hopes, and disappointments. Based on 3 days of testing.

1. Will it be the story everyone wants, Lewis Hamilton winning his record breaking 8th WDC while driving for Ferrari?
2. Can McLaren repeat as constructor's champion?
3. How will the rookies fare?
4. The growing tensions between teammates Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, and between Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon.
5. Which team will be the biggest surprise? Alpine, Williams, or Haas? Which will be the biggest disappointment? Aston Martin, Red Bull, or Mercedes?
6. Forget hair bands. We have hair F1. The F1 team with the best hair.
7. And finally, why is Esteban Ocon starring in this really awful French movie?
