Six drivers will race for new teams this year, with three rookies - Nyck de Vries, Oscar Piastri and Logan Sargeant - on the grid.

The more experienced drivers changing teams are Fernando Alonso and Pierre Gasly, whilst Nico Hülkenberg returns after three years on the sidelines.

"The Hulk's back, Haas will benefit from his experience no doubt.
