We look ahead to the possibility of an unprecedented world championship fight in 2025 on the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.

Edd Straw is joined by Scott Mitchell-Malm and The Race's new recruit Jon Noble to run through the factors that could potentially make this one of the closest F1 seasons in history, and the factors that could swing it one way or another. 

We attempt to pick a favourite for both the drivers' and the constructors' championship, discussing where teams need to improve and where there are opportunities to steal a march on their rivals when it comes to the potential battle between McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes.

The thorny questions of the reducing raceability of the cars and the fact a major rule change is set to disrupt what has become a close competition at the front are also taken on.
