Formula 1

Heather's Analysis| the takes that matter

F1

Oliver Bearman just shut the door on Aston Martin and said the quiet part out loud: Ferrari is the only seat he wants. Here is the problem for the 21-year-old. Ferrari have groomed him since Formula 3, but Lewis Hamilton, 41, won at Barcelona this season and sits 50 points off the championship lead. The revival everyone loves is quietly costing the kid his dream drive. He waits another year, or he blinks and walks.

Audi confirmed this week they won't make significant power unit improvements for the rest of 2026, saving the big parts for 2027. They are still 1 point ahead of Williams in the constructors' table. Williams brought 2 established drivers and a car designed around the new regulations, and the team's own management has said this season isn't going to plan. You don't get passed by frozen-development competition and blame anything but the car. Williams doesn't overtake Audi before Zandvoort.
