F1 2025 potential driver line-ups and contract situation

Red Bull: Max Verstappen's contract extends until 2028, making him the immovable rock at Red Bull. His teammate Sergio Perez's deal expires in 2024, leaving the second seat open.
Will they retain the Mexican? Or will Alpine's Fernando Alonso, nearing the twilight of his career, be drawn to a potential title contender, as recent rumours suggest?
Mercedes: Of course, losing Hamilton would be a monumental blow, but Sainz's potential arrival offers exciting possibilities.

Alpine: The French team will continue with their all-French line-up in 2024, with Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon both under contract until the end of the season.
McLaren: Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri have both inked a multi-year extension through the end of the 2026 season.
Haas: The American team retained Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg for 2024, with both contracts running until the end of the season.
