Max Verstappen may have beaten him to a seat at Red Bull Racing, but Carlos Sainz Jr.’s potential Formula One career path has suddenly become much clearer. If he can finish off the career of new Toro Rosso team-mate Daniil Kvyat, and if the might of Ferrari can persuade Daniel Ricciardo to join former sparring partner Sebastian Vettel (a big “if” admittedly), Sainz will be virtually...

Nico Rosberg may be leading the Formula One drivers’ standings by a comfortable margin, but after losing the world championship to Lewis Hamilton in 2014 and 2015, the German is taking nothing for granted. After establishing a 43-point advantage over his Mercedes team-mate with victories in the opening four races, both history and the odds are stacked in his favour, yet Rosberg—at the beginning...

To Daniil Kvyat, delirious after claiming the second podium finish of his Formula One career in the Chinese Grand Prix, it was only an innocent question. Wiping his face as race winner Nico Rosberg and Sebastian Vettel—who had salvaged second place following an opening-lap collision with Ferrari team-mate Kimi Raikkonen—stood to his left, the Red Bull driver attempted to pierce the testosterone-filled...

Max Verstappen’s rapid rise through the ranks of Formula One continued on Thursday morning when the teenager was promoted to Red Bull Racing. Little more than a year after making his grand prix debut at the age of 17, Verstappen will represent the four-time world champions from next weekend’s Spanish Grand Prix after Red Bull decided to punish Daniil Kvyat for his Russian GP crimes by sending...

Only four races of the 2016 Formula One season have been completed, but Sebastian Vettel’s title hopes are already hanging by a thread after the four-time world champion suffered a second retirement in the Russian Grand Prix.

Following the elation of claiming his second Formula One podium finish in China, Daniil Kvyat could have done with a shoulder to cry on in the aftermath of Sunday’s Russian Grand Prix. In front of his home crowd sitting in a grandstand that bears his name, the 22-year-old suffered a first-lap meltdown at the Sochi Autodrom, where he sparked two separate collisions in the space of two corners,...

Nico Rosberg claimed his fourth consecutive victory of the 2016 Formula One season in Sunday’s Russian Grand Prix at the Sochi Autodrom. With Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton again hindered by an engine problem in qualifying and Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel suffering a five-place grid penalty due to a gearbox change, Rosberg started from pole position for the second race in succession and...

In the end, it didn’t matter in the slightest. With a cloud of white smoke and that familiar sound of a squealing, overloaded front tyre, Nico Rosberg was off the track, running wide under braking for the tricky right-hander we know and love as Turn 13 of the Russian Grand Prix circuit. At any other time in any other year, such an error in the final three minutes of a Formula One qualifying session...

After the spectacular comes the steady. Max Verstappen was all-action upon his arrival in Formula One last year, but the Toro Rosso driver has shown a slightly different side to his game across the opening three races of 2016. The teenager is one of just six drivers to score points in every grand prix thus far, and Verstappen hopes consistent points will lead to the prize of a more competitive seat...
