As the new year arrives and the 2023 F1 season moves closer, here are 10 storylines to start getting excited about!
10 storylines to be excited about ahead of the new F1 2023 seasonHappy New Year to you, and we are that bit happier to see January come around because we are edging ever closer to the F1 2023 season beginning in earnest…
The $7 million fine will likely be less consequential for the team than the 10% loss of CFD [computational fluid dynamics] time available to them in F1 2023, which will even further limit their use of a wind tunnel and their ability to run aerodynamic testing to develop the car in-season.Christian Horner believes such a penalty could cost the team up to half a second per lap
But if they start the season well, Verstappen will have to make hay while the sun shines, just in case he gets reeled in later in the year.For the chasing pack to Red Bull, we all know by now the main issues for Ferrari last season mostly came through management of their strategies and driver errors during races in 2022, because with 12 poles from 22 races and only four wins, that conversion rate does not look particularly friendly for the F1-75 having been such a quick car.
And as for Mercedes, the W13 will not be seen again in public if the team can help it, but if their work through 2022 comes to fruition come Bahrain, they could well be back in the mix again.With two wins to his name and largely solid results throughout the year, you’d be hard-pressed to find too many people who said Sergio Perez had a ‘bad’ 2022 season, but the outright dominance of his team-mate clearly showed just what the RB18 was capable of doing at times.

Should it be a three-team fight at the front as appears to be the predicted consensus at this stage, how long before we hear on the team radio bickering about the other car in the same team or pointed remarks in press conferences once it becomes clear that a World Championship could be on the line? But because they have been known to not be the best of friends, this begs the question of just how tempestuous things could become if they do have some moments of conflict on track in F1 2023. Even more so if they build a competitive car as well.
And for De Vries, he comes into AlphaTauri as the less experienced Formula 1 driver, but has a chance to become team leader at Red Bull’s junior squad against Yuki Tsunoda if he is quick enough to take that mantle.Fernando Alonso rolled the dice for one more move in his illustrious career by taking over the vacant seat left by the retiring Sebastian Vettel at the ambitious Aston Martin team.
