Who knows how many more races/years Max will be in his best form. Look at Hamilton, and other great drivers who appeared to have had their performance drop off.

True, but drivers drive longer careers than they used to, like most high end athletes,
they have learned how to maintain themselves, look at Alonso, given the right equipment, I don't think anyone would argue he could still win.

It will be interesting to see of Hamilton gets that type of revival in the Ferrari.
Seems if he has a fast car, he drives harder and produces.
Be fun to watch testing and first race.

Also cars being in last year before biggest regulation changes in the history of F-1
Last year top 10 were more often than not less than 1/2 second apart,
I expect it to be very busy at the sharp end of the grid this year.
Which for us, means some great racing, regardless of who you cheer for

Also biggest crop of rookies ever, could make interesting to see who emerges as a real current or future
threat. 2025 should be a great racing season.

Do you mean the IMSA Weathertec series, or WEC Championship races?
REV TV does have a lot of race coverage that other sports channels will not. Some of Rev's pre-edited shows aren't great, but they are often Canadian events at least.

They carry the IMSA series, I think Discovery Velocity carried the WEC championship but I’m not sure who will carry than now that that channel has changed to CTV Speed

In our area Rogers took over Shaw, and they have offered more channels at no extra charge, but with all the recent network changes (like the USA Network) I'm not sure what the future holds in store for us. USA Network is owned by NBCUniversal and is part of NBC Sports. In Canada, and has rebranded its Discovery Channel as USA Network on January 1, 2025.
 
Can you imagine the 2025 F1 season if you were a seasoned driver in contention for a championship, with six basically rookie F1 drivers out on the track?
I think this may turn out to be a very interesting season for the teams, the FIA stewards, and the spectators. It could be an expensive one as well, with the potential for more wrecks taking place.

I didn't watch the truck race, but the Infinity and the Cup cars put on a good show at Daytona.
I was kind of cheering for Bell, as I believe he has the talent to win a race like the Daytona 500, but it was not his day. Wonder if Preece's wife Heather, is trying to talk him out of next years race, after having two spectacular crashes there two years in a row. He's walked away from both of them but will his luck hold? For a time it looked like Lagano was a prospect for the win, until he tried to squeeze his way to the front. In fairness Stenhouse moved down to late block him, and when Logano tried it again, he wouldn't give an inch, which triggered the wreck.
Looked like Cindric or Hamlin was within striking distance for a win, and then they wrecked, handing the win to Byron. Proving that at Daytona you have to be in the right place at the right time, and that being in the front row is not a given, even on the final lap.
Amazing result for Jimmy Johnson with a 3rd place finish. Odd how NASCAR doesn't have any real recognition, or a podium for the first three positions. Do they even have trophy's for runner ups?
 
Surprised me that with a last lap wreck in the Cup race at Daytona and again yesterday with the Xfinity race in Atlanta that NASCAR let them race back to the finish on the last lap, which is the way it should be.

There was a trend in the last few years the yellow flag would have come out and ended to race under caution.

Exciting finish to the Xfinity race in Atlanta, Almirola almost had it.
