Lewis Hamilton has completed one of the biggest driver moves in the history of the sport to Ferrari, but what does this mean for the vacancy he leaves at Mercedes and the departing Carlos Sainz? In other news, Haas revealed their 2024 challenger, along with big contract extensions for Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris with their respectable teams. The new Madrid street circuit has been revealed with a potential new race in Chicago being trademarked by FOM and slinking its way into conversation. Finally, Andretti has unfortunately been denied entry to the sport with F1 citing a lack of potential competitiveness and rumor has it Alex Albon could make his return to Red Bull. With such big news came a myriad of vehement opinions, all of which you can hear with us this week On The Gravel!
