Race Prediction and What to Expect?
As we all know, McLaren is the fastest team on the grid and is expected to win the race. But it will be wonderful to see Oscar Piastri win in his home race ahead of Lando Norris. But at the same time, don't keep Ferrari out of the equation, as they could be sandbagging. Lewis Hamilton is expected to unleash his full potential with his new team. Either McLaren or Ferrari will win the 2025 season opener in Australia. Reigning world champion Max Verstappen is expected to finish inside the Top 5.
