Formula 1 is back for the 2021 season with some new and returning faces joining the ranks and with Lewis Hamilton returning for his record-breaking season, this season will be the one to remember.
The F1 2021 season saw the debut of two new teams Alpine and Aston Martin as well as new drivers such as Nikita Mazepin and Mick Schumacher driving for Haas, and Yuki Tsunoda driving for Alpha Tauri. Drivers migrating for other teams this season are Carlos Sainz for Ferrari, Daniel Ricciardo for Ferrari, Sebastian Vettel for the new Aston Martin Cognizant F1 team, and Sergio Perez for Red Bull. For an added surprise, the legendary Fernando Alonso made his F1 comeback and representing the new Alpine F1 team alongside Esteban Ocon.
The first battleground is the Bahrain International Circuit for the Bahrain Grand Prix and as the lights are out, the first race of the season begins...with the Haas newcomer Mazepin out of the race sadly. Worse, Pierre Gasly, who stated 5th, dropped to last place after pits and come Lap 33rd, the comeback driver Alonso's out of the race due to mechanical failures. With ten laps to go, it's a three-way battle between Hamilton, Max Verstappen, and Valtteri Bottas with the climax too close to call.
