F1 Nation is back with a new signing and big questions for the 2023 F1 season. Legendary test and race driver Pedro de la Rosa joins Tom Clarkson, 1996 World Champion Damon Hill and Natalie Pinkham to unravel pre-season testing and work out who\u2019ll be at the front at the Bahrain Grand Prix. Aston Martin ambassador Pedro gives us the inside line on the team\u2019s apparent improvement, plus F1 experts tell us their views on Red Bull\u2019s pace, Mercedes\u2019 design, Ferrari\u2019s boss, Alpine\u2019s rivals and McLaren\u2019s struggles. Plus we talk rookies, returning favourites and why the entire field will be closer than ever in 2023.\n
