As the 2023 season approaches, let’s take a look at how the drivers and teams will line up for this next season of Formula One!
Red Bull Racing:
Red Bull Racing is running with the exact same lineup as last year, but as the saying goes; if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

Reserve/Development Drivers: Liam Lawson, Dennis Hauger, Zane Maloney
3rd Driver: Daniel Ricciardo
Scuderia Ferrari:
Much like Red Bull, Ferrari had no need to change their driver lineup. They did however have a change in team principal!

Drivers: Charles Leclerc [No.16] and Carlos Sainz Jr. [No.55]
Reserve/Development Drivers: Antonio Giovinazzi, Robert Shwartzman, Antonio Fuoco, Davide Rigon
Mercedes AMG Petronas F1:
Like the rest of the top teams, they kept with the same lineup. I mean if I had a team composed of Toto Wolff, Lewis Hamilton, and George Russell, I wouldn’t change it either!
Team Principal: Toto Wolff
Drivers: Lewis Hamilton [No.44] and George Russell [No.63]
