Sergio Perez leading the pack

While motorsport had been taking place since the late-1800s, with Grand Prix events arriving and growing in popularity across the following decades, 1950 marked the start of the official F1 championship that remains to this day. Formula 1 is watched by huge numbers of fans around the world. This includes the hundreds of thousands who flock through the gates at each Grand Prix to catch the action in-person and the millions more who follow it from afar.

Formula One teams

A total of 20 drivers and 10 teams make up the current F1 grid, with each outfit fielding two cars. This ranges from teams who have been in F1 since the early decades, such as Ferrari and McLaren, or relative newcomers like Haas, who entered the sport ahead of the 2016 season. In terms of the drivers, experience ranges from world champions Lewis Hamilton, Fernando Alonso and Max Verstappen to rookie racers Oscar Piastri, Nyck de Vries and Logan Sargeant.
