First race is on first week of March so just over 9 days away which doesn't that long to wait.
In the meantime you can watch the new season for it beginning tomorrow's release date of the 23rd:
https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/netflix-announces-drive-to-survive-season-six-launch-date/10568817

Watching some of the driver's reactions from the testing sessions yesterday, the most surprising one to hear was Leclerc's talking about Hamilton and how he would happy to race along side with him.

Still questioning why they decided to make this move public before this season even began.
It just makes it so very weird to know a driver is splitting from a team they have been the face of for so long while they will be racing for them during the upcoming season.

I'm also surprised to hear Leclerc's thoughts on racing with Hamilton side by side.

Actually I knew they had a good friendship so far. But as each one of them is one of the most skilled drivers on the grid I thought Leclerc would prefer less competition against himself. Ferrari don't have a system of hierarchy about their drivers so it would be interesting to watch the competition between them.

Yes, It was really unexpected to hear Hamilton's deciding to join Ferrari in 2025 already now. I think it could have been better to state it officially by the end of this season.

Just finished watching the first episode of the sixth season of DTS and it all seemed so long ago especially when they start the second episode stating it was from December 2022 with the Horner family celebrating Chirstmas.
Never got into all the humbug with Christian from the news stories prior to this season and whenever seen any sort of those headlines, just turned away.

Hadn't known about the race-day change to a Saturday!
Would actually like it better if all them are scheduled for a Saturday instead of having it on a Sunday so this might be a testing period to see how it goes.

Yes, there is a change like this for 2024 season. It isn't going to be only for this race as well. The Saudi Arabia and Las Vegas races are also scheduled to be on Saturdays for now.

I was thinking like there weren't any races held on a Saturday before but it looks like there were actually a lot of such races in the past. Grin

First of all I forgot about 2023 Las Vegas GP being held on a Saturday. In addition to that one, this source named "The Race" says that there were many more Saturday races in the 20th century.

Maybe we would see more Saturday races to come by next seasons which would be nice to try as you said.

By the way pre-season testing has started in Bahrain. There is a really little amount of time left to say "Lights out and away we go!". Grin

This time we have a change on the race day. If I'm not wrong this will be the first time ever to have a race on a Saturday.

As usual qualifying session will be a day before the race. I wouldn't say no to start watching Formula 1 again one day earlier thanks to this change. It is quite difficult to predict the first race - except what Verstappen will do.

Which teams do you think we would see making a good start?

Tests are ongoing and cars are already faster then the past year.

RBR alredy on top, Mercedes is behind but they are probably going slow on purpose.

Testing has begun and seen Norris on top for the session I was watching earlier but Red Bull must of overtaken them in the last one since then.
Here is the preview from the official Formula 1 youtube channel:

Red Bull just had their launch for the unveiling of their entry into the 2024 F1 season!

P1 with Matt & Tommy were at the unveiling of the RB20 and talked to Serio Perez at the end of the event to get his view on the car:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPC8T59Y6TE

And they seem to have made an interesting change in the side pods-

https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/unpicking-the-secrets-of-red-bulls-brave-new-f1-sidepods/10576425/

"Red Bull has not tried to recreate the zeropod here, rather it’s a hybrid solution marries a wider, high-waisted, extreme undercut, downwashing ramp solution with a vertical inlet"

Other teams to copy them soon?

Mercedes also announced their car yesterday. It looks like they are back in their golden age colours.

The black car was also really nice but the traditional design is better I think. It reminds me the years with Hamilton domination and Hamilton must also be happy to see this look again. We will see how competitive Mercedes will be this year but I don't have high expectations.

The source: https://twitter.com/F1/status/1757733676350390695

I hope that they have a challenge now with the championships, I believe that that's the ultimate goal that they have. Maybe they can bounce back with this and since it's their golden age colors, they can go back into the peak performance that they have dominated before. Hmm.

I remember that it's the issue with the downforce and stability right? They are having a hard time with it with the previous cars.

Here is a video I just watched while looking for the next livery launch:
Sauber’s PROBLEMATIC new F1 team name
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=126xlV5q5yw

Sauber is even said to be likely to be fined for half a million Swiss francs because of advertising Stake. Grin

Because Switzerland has banned gambling websites from abroad already.

Ferrari had their launch yesterday but it was just a minute and a half long.
Here are P1's reaction to it as it was longer than the car reveal:

This is what most of the teams are doing so the final few left might just do the same.

We will see what Mercedes do in around 2 and a half hours from now when they release their launch of their new car for the season:

Heard some news most hadn't heard before but they have something going on brought to the Swiss courts in regards to the branding of this F1 car.
On several podcasts I had briefly heard F1 sponsorships can not include anything to do with gambling.
So maybe they will just have this livery for testing in Barcelona set to take on this week and Kick promptly placed on the livery when they race.

As I understand, gambling advertisements is allowed in F1, but in some countries where they're racing it's illegal and probably they wouldn't be alllowed to display Stake name there. As of going to court, Sauber is Swiss team, while Stake don't have license which is accepted there, their license as usual in crytpo gambling is issued in Curacao.

Still not so sure about the name as it looks like a mashup of advertisers names. Thought the RB was for the obvious naming format but it is not.
https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/visa-cashapp-rb-worst-f1-name-red-bull

Great article, nailed it what's wrong with their name. Simply everyting is wrong with it and it's hard to remember worse F1 team name. I'm still wondering how commentators are going to call them. Racing Bulls sounds most logical, but it makes confusion with Red Bull.

That makes sense because they showed the car with kick inplace of what they showed during the launch aswell.
So the jurisdictions they aren't allowed they can just bring those decals on the body instead.
Sauber is Swiss so makes complete sense why they are in Swiss courts then.
They also had advertisements in other sports such as the UFC and have done the same for those aswell.

3rd driver means not on the race grid anymore. only as a test driver and reserve driver if the 2 main drivers lewis hamilton or Charles Leclerc are injured can only race on the grid again. if there is an offer from another team to be the main driver or on the science grid, he will definitely choose to leave ferarri.

Yeah, it means nothing at all you are right.

Like 2 years ago with Covid, many teams got the reserve driver but everyone was calling Hulkenbergh when someone was positive.

I dont like their design and colors, and I dont want to say something worse but it looks to me little like a Barbie car Grin

If I am not wrong I think that they have the same poor drivers like previous season Ocon and Gasly, so I dont expect anything special from them.
And drivers uniforms are worse than a car Huh

There should be some not resigning for whatever reason going into this season. So as you had mentioned, those are the main sponsorships from the big named ones. Except for Crypto.com having Miami's Track named after them and who are the main sponsors to some of the tracks and most of the televised F1 promotional events.

I know that Stake was one of the sponsors of team Alfa Romeo last year, and they have been full of crypto sponsors but that didnt pay off for them.
You need to have good drivers and good engine, than you can add sponsorship deals and win some races.
I dont think new Kick Sauber team will have much success this year, and it is so strange to see Audi in F1.
