Five drivers to keep an eye on in the 2020 Formula 1 season

The 2020 Formula 1 season is almost upon us. After waiting patiently over the winter break, Formula 1 is finally starting to enter back into all of our lives. Here are five drivers you might want to keep your eyes on when the season starts. 

Esteban Ocon

The Frenchman will make his return to Formula 1 after a year on the sidelines as a Mercedes reserve driver. Ocon has signed for Renault and will be really looking forward to getting back to racing in the top tier of motorsport. 

There is no denying his raw talent but it will be interesting to see if all his time away from racing means that it will take a few Grand Prix's for him to get up to speed. His battle with Daniel Ricciardo is mouth-wateringly tasty. 

Lewis Hamilton

Not many drivers will ever have the opportunity to win their seventh driver's championship. This is a possibility for the Mercedes driver. If he wins again this year then he will equal Michael Schumacher's all-time record. 

Admittedly this is a strange addition to this list but George Russell really impressed in 2019. He did all he could in the Williams and if the team can produce a faster car then it is almost certain that Russell will be further up the grid. 

He is a fast driver and will be desperate to improve in 2020.
