The 2025 season was a genuine thriller with a title race that went down to the wire and almost saw Max Verstappen seal what would have been an incredible comeback, but instead finished up with Lando Norris claiming his maiden title. Watching it all was former Renault F1 driver and expert analyst Jolyon Palmer. Here, he gives his view on the best performers and performances from across the season…

BEST DRIVER – MAX VERSTAPPEN

I don’t think there’s any doubt on this one. This was an unbelievable season for Max who put in some huge underdog performances early on to snaffle a couple of wins from McLaren, before storming in with the big threat in the final third of the season.

He eventually came up agonisingly short in achieving one of sport's all time great fightbacks, but he gave it absolutely everything.
