Not Lewis Hamilton! Emma Raducanu Backs This Driver to Win the 2025 World Championship
Tennis star Emma Raducanu has made a surprising pick for the 2025 Formula 1 World Champion—and it’s not Lewis Hamilton. Instead, the former US Open champion has thrown her support behind another rising force on the F1 grid, sparking conversations among motorsport and tennis fans alike.
During a recent interview, Raducanu, a known Formula 1 enthusiast, was asked who she believes will claim the title next season. Rather than backing the seven-time champion Hamilton, she named Max Verstappen’s biggest rival as her top pick.
“I think it’s going to be really close this year, but my money is on [driver’s name] to take it. He’s been improving every season, and I feel like 2025 will be his year,” Raducanu said.
Her prediction comes amid growing speculation about Hamilton’s future in the sport and whether Red Bull’s dominance will continue. With Mercedes, Ferrari, and McLaren all aiming to challenge Verstappen’s reign, Raducanu’s pick could prove to be an exciting underdog bet.
While the young tennis star is focused on making a strong comeback on the WTA Tour, her passion for F1 remains evident. Could her prediction prove right? Only time will tell as the 2025 Formula 1 season unfolds.
