Max wins.
A new season, new drivers, new reasons to cheer people on etc., and if you haven’t chosen which driver to support yet then make sure you do that now using the official driver selection flowchart. Also new this year is the car. It’s got more downforce, more powerful DRS, more flexibility to actually fit drivers of different sizes in and generally more everything fast and good. It also looks and sounds like a cute little cartoon car. Something for everyone. Anyway the drivers apparently love it so at least they’ll all be happy for a few minutes…

A new season,
Full of new hope. What excitement awaits!?
Lap 5: Max is 4 seconds ahead.
Hope gone.
Yes, this is an F2 2024 season preview split by how confusing I find the team names. No you don’t have to read it, I have made a flowchart instead…
With so many races in quick succession, who can even remember what any of the the tracks are anymore? *Checks notes* This week it was time for Hungary! Apparently an often hectic and technical track that some drivers love and some drivers don’t, depending on how much of a geek they are. Look out for grumpy drivers and happy drivers…
Hungary
Quali is exciting. Hungaroring-master Lewis is back on pole. Can he fight Max for the win?
No.
Great Britain
There’s no way Lando will overtake Max at the start. LANDO OVERTOOK MAX AT THE START!!
Max overtakes Lando. There’s no way Lando will keep up with Max. LANDO IS KEEPING UP WITH MAX!!
K-Mag is on fire, literally. Random reshuffle and now Lewis is P3. Max wins but it feels like Lando anyway.
Austria marked the first of the much touted “four races in one month” thing. Hard to tell if it’s actually good or bad so I’ll move on…
Austria
While Leclerc and Verstappen battled (briefly), Sainz battled his team (as usual), Hamilton battled his car (but not his tyres) and everyone else battled track limits, including the stewards for hours after the race. Special shout out for Ocon, King of track limits.
Been too busy having a life but now experiencing F2 FOMO and feeling panicked because you don’t have a spare 24 hours to catch up on everything that’s happened so far this season? Don’t worry, here’s a handy F2 2023 cheat sheet for you with everything you need to know about how the championship is going so far and how to choose the driver you should have been supporting…
