Lewis Hamilton is bidding to become the greatest driver in the history of F1 – and he is now just two world titles away from Michael Schumacher’s record of seven.
But there is no doubting that the competition is getting continually tougher, as Ferrari and Red Bull appear to have bridged the significant gap between Mercedes and the rest of the field.
It all makes for a thrilling 2019 season ahead.
Hamilton will no doubt be battling Sebastian Vettel for the title once more, but with young guns like Max Verstappen, Pierre Gasly and Charles Leclerc all in fast cars, anything can happen.
