Formula 1 on the Verge of Becoming a “Quali Championship” in 2025

The current Formula 1 season is causing a stir as teams and drivers are facing the challenge of a potential shift towards a “quali championship.” With overtaking opportunities becoming scarce in recent races, the competition is heating up on the track.

The 2025 season kicked off with an action-packed Australian Grand Prix, but subsequent races in China and Japan have seen a significant decrease in overtaking maneuvers. The final year of the current regulations has led to a convergence in car design, making it harder for drivers to make their way through the field.

Fred Vasseur, Ferrari team principal, expressed his concerns about the growing importance of qualifying in determining race outcomes. He highlighted the impact of close gaps between cars and the dominance of clean air in securing victories, as evidenced by pole-sitters Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen’s triumphs in Shanghai and Suzuka, respectively.

Despite McLaren’s strong performance this season, drivers like Lando Norris have struggled to overtake rivals who secured pole position. The significance of qualifying positions has been emphasized by Norris and Piastri, who found themselves unable to challenge Verstappen during the race due to track position.

Ferrari, on the other hand, has faced challenges early in the season, with McLaren, Red Bull, and Mercedes establishing themselves as the top teams on the grid. Vasseur acknowledged the need for improvement across all areas to enhance the team’s performance in the remaining races of the season.

As the competition intensifies and teams battle for supremacy, the 2025 Formula 1 season is shaping up to be a thrilling spectacle filled with strategic qualifying sessions and fierce on-track battles. With 21 races still to go, the championship remains wide open, promising fans an exhilarating season ahead.
