F1 entry list confirms Piastri Sargeant and De Vriess race numbers as FIA reveals 2023 Grand Prix start times

Formula 1’s official entry list for the 2023 season has been released by the FIA, confirming the numbers that will be used by next year’s three rookie drivers: Oscar Piastri, Logan Sargeant and Nyck de Vries. Former F3 and F2 champion Piastri will run the number 81 on his McLaren, F2 race winner Sargeant will use number 2 on his Williams, and De Vries – with a substitute performance in 2022 already under his belt – has taken number 21 for his AlphaTauri. The entry list reflects a host of other moves after a particularly busy 2022 driver market, with Fernando Alonso jumping to Aston Martin, Pierre Gasly taking his place at Alpine, and Nico Hulkenberg returning to F1 with Haas. ANALYSIS: How Team Principal Silly Season unfolded at Ferrari, Alfa Romeo and McLaren Meanwhile, there is also a naming tweak on the engine front, with Red Bull and AlphaTauri’s supplier now listed as 'Honda RBPT'. Last year it was simply 'RBPT' (standing for the recently-launched Red Bull Powertrains operation) but Honda will return to the official name from next season. 2023 F1 entry list Car number Driver name Team name Make of engine 1 Max Verstappen Oracle Red Bull Racing Honda RBPT 11 Sergio Perez Mendoza Oracle Red Bull Racing Honda RBPT 16 Charles Leclerc Scuderia Ferrari Ferrari 55 Carlos Sainz Scuderia Ferrari Ferrari 63 George Russell Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team Mercedes 44 Lewis Hamilton Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team Mercedes 31 Esteban Ocon Alpine F1 Team Renault 10 Pierre Gasly Alpine F1 Team Renault 81 Oscar Piastri McLaren Formula 1 Team Mercedes 4 Lando Norris McLaren Formula 1 Team Mercedes 77 Valtteri Bottas Alfa Romeo F1 Team ORLEN Ferrari 24 Zhou Guanyu Alfa Romeo F1 Team ORLEN Ferrari 18 Lance Stroll Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One Team Mercedes 14 Fernando Alonso Diaz Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One Team Mercedes 20 Kevin Magnussen MoneyGram Haas F1 Team Ferrari 27 Nico Hulkenberg MoneyGram Haas F1 Team Ferrari 21 Nyck de Vries Scuderia AlphaTauri Honda RBPT 22 Yuki Tsunoda Scuderia AlphaTauri Honda RBPT 23 Alexander Albon Williams Racing Mercedes 2 Logan Sargeant Williams Racing Mercedes Alongside the entry list, a full set of start times for the 2023 calendar has been shared, spanning the season-opener in Bahrain on March 5 to the Abu Dhabi finale on November 26.

Coming to @fastf1 over the next week and a bit, will be a list of '11 Junior Drivers To Watch In 2020'. - This list is in no particular order and is merely a collection of talented young drivers who are, in my opinion, well worth keeping an eye on as the upcoming season of motorsport kicks off. - This first entry actually doubles as a news article. Yesterday, it was confirmed that Oscar Piastri has become the newest member of the Renault Sport Academy. The Australian driver competed in Formula Renault Eurocup last season and won 7 races en route to claiming the title. - It's also been announced that Piastri will step up to FIA Formula 3 in 2020, with perennial frontrunners Prema Racing. The 18 year-old joins Logan Sargeant (pictured below) and Fredrik Vesti to complete the F3 line-up of the Italian squad. - Upon yesterday's announcement, Renault Sport Academy Director Mia Sharizman sang the praises of the Melbourne-born driver, saying, “We’re very excited to welcome Oscar to the Renault Sport Academy." - "We had the opportunity to monitor Oscar for the last three years in British F4 and the Formula Renault Eurocup. We were very impressed every time we saw Oscar, especially with his performances last season," he continued. - So, you've heard it from the Academy Director himself, Oscar looks like a great prospect. Now that he finds himself in at one of the best F3 teams around, there is an even higher chance that he will succeed in 2020 and push on towards his ultimate goal of making it to F1. - F3 will be a hard test for Piastri, but one that he appears more than capable of passing. @fastf1 is intrigued to see how he fares and you should be too. 🏁🏁 | CREDITS: UNKNOWN | #F1 #FormulaOne #F1Pics #F1News #F1Memes #F12019 #F1History #Formula3 #FIAF3 #PremaRacing #OscarPiastri #RenaultSportAcademy #RenaultF1Team #RenaultF1 #DR3 #EO31 #TeamLH #LH44 #MV33 #HondaF1 #CL16 #VB77 #ScuderiaFerrari #SV5 #RedBullRacing #MarkWebber #JensonButton #AG99 #MichaelSchumacher #KeepFightingMichael https://www.instagram.com/p/B70wDjIBA7L/?igshid=17uqewexlnm38

It was a very good step forward F1 team bosses reflect on impact of fascinating 2022 rule changes

Formula 1 team bosses have taken time to assess the major changes to the sport’s regulations for the 2022 season, hailing them as a step in the right direction after an action-packed campaign. F1 introduced an all-new set of technical regulations this year, including a move to ground effect aerodynamics, revised bodywork and larger tyres, with the aim of generating closer racing and more overtaking opportunities. READ MORE: ‘We’re seeing the rewards’ – Brawn hails positive impact of F1’s 2022 rule changes Reflecting on the changes, and the core goals, Alpine team boss Otmar Szafnauer said: “I think there [were] a couple of objectives, one of which was to bring the field a bit closer together. I think that’s been partially achieved; I think the racing is a little bit closer. “Then the other objective was to get most of the downforce, or the predominant amount of the downforce, from the floor, such that overtaking can be a little bit easier. I think overtaking is a bit easier. This feature is currently not available because you need to provide consent to functional cookies.

We have to differentiate between financial regulations and technical. I think financial worked. The teams are closer together, all the teams have scored points this year. READ MORE: Sainz says F1 ‘got it right’ with 2022 rule changes and expects championship to become ‘more and more interesting’ “On the technical regulations, I think that it worked as well – it made the racing better. You can get a little bit closer car to car. It will never be perfect with a car with wings on, that you don’t lose downforce when you’re behind the car, but it went in the right direction. “There are improvements, always… there’s always margin to improve the technical regulations, so I think if we keep on working on it, we are on the right way, but in general, the entertainment value is better, I think.

I think you learn more with a big regulation change, especially when you’re not as strong as you want to be… I think you learn even more,” said McCullough. “But [Red Bull have] shown over the season how it needs to be done, and that's a benchmark for us all to be chasing – the job that Red Bull have done.” via Formula 1 News https://www.formula1.com

Its been a real journey Magnussen reflects on whirlwind F1 return that included massive surprise

Kevin Magnussen is optimistic he and Haas can make more headlines at the start of next season after their recent reunion kicked off in spectacular fashion amid F1’s rules reset. Magnussen initially raced with Haas from 2017 to 2020, only to lose his seat for 2021 when the team overhauled their driver pairing by bringing in rookies Mick Schumacher and Nikita Mazepin. However, Haas would part ways with Mazepin shortly before the 2022 campaign began, opening the door for Magnussen – who had spent his year out of F1 racing sports cars – to make a shock comeback. READ MORE: From Magnussen’s mega comeback to the pursuit of Piastri – 8 crazy storylines from the 2022 season The fairytale continued at the Bahrain opener when Magnussen qualified P7 and raced to a sensational P5, making the most of Haas’s much-improved VF-22 package – designed to all-new technical regulations. Magnussen mixed it with the Red Bull and Mercedes cars en route to P5 in Bahrain Assessing his return to F1 with Haas, and how the season unfolded, Magnussen said: “It’s been a real journey. Of course, at the beginning of the year, we were really strong. “We started the season in Bahrain with P5, and that was a massive surprise, I guess, because the team had been struggling for two years. “To hit the road [running] like that in the first race was pretty cool. And then, of course, we had a very strong first half of the year.” READ MORE: F1 entry list confirms Piastri, Sargeant and De Vries’s race numbers, as FIA reveals 2023 Grand Prix start times After scoring points in three of the first four races, Magnussen would only make the top 10 on three more occasions across the season – Haas’s early pace fading as midfield rivals pushed ahead with car developments. After the shock of his return, Magnussen surprised again with his maiden F1 pole in Sao Paulo It meant Haas ended the campaign eighth out of 10 teams in the constructors’ standings, pipping ninth-placed AlphaTauri by two points, though that has not discouraged Magnussen. “I think some of the other teams, like Alpine and Aston Martin, kind of developed their performance more than us,” continued the Dane, who delivered one more unexpected result towards the end of the season with a maiden pole position in mixed conditions in Brazil. “But there’s no reason that we can’t catch up [with our development] over the winter and start again like we did [in 2022] next year.” WATCH: F1 Animated returns with a hilarious alternative take on the 2022 season Magnussen will be joined by a new team mate at Haas for 2023, with Nico Hulkenberg preparing for his own F1 comeback in place of the ousted Mick Schumacher, who has taken up a reserve role at Mercedes. via Formula 1 News https://www.formula1.com
