Mercedes AMG-PETRONAS technical director James Allison shared important insights and updates as the F1 season returns to the famous European circuits. With six rounds already completed of the 2025 season, Mercedes managed to keep up with McLaren, and the second position in the Constructors Championship shows that well.

A podium seemed to be on the cards for Mercedes at the Singapore Grand Prix after they managed to lock out the second row on the grid in an interrupted qualifying session.

A bittersweet weekend for Red Bull at the Canadian Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen taking the win ahead of Lando Norris and Sergio Perez retiring after causing an incident in the last laps.
