Would be hilarious if Carlos signs for Merc and they produce a championship challenging car next year and Ferrari do not.
-
ppl throwing crap at carlos for waiting, the doors reopened
-
The irony is if Carlos goes to Mercedes next year and Mercedes continues to out perform Ferrari, this change will work to his advantage even though he was disadvantaged when Ferrari announced Hamilton would replace him.
-
Antonelli to Williams is a wise choice, while Sainz to Mercedes is a brilliant pick. It will give Merc a solid lineup.
-
Kimi going straight to Mercedes is a bit of a crazy idea when it was first talked about imo, he would be a rookie fresh in F1 and you'll have him straight in the merc seat. When previously merc put their other drivers in Williams to gain experience.
-
I find it nuts that you think Ocon will be a better team mate than Kmag. If anyone is a team player its Kmag. Give him the car and he will do just as well as Ocon or even better. Bearman would be mentally broken by Ocon, because he would instantly see him as his main rival and do the Ocon.
-
Lets call the whole thing off.. Lewis stays at Mercedes, Sainz stays at Ferrari
-
Carlos Sainz' manager is called Carlos Sainz. Beautiful!
-
Sainz is the main player. Once he settles things will fall into place
-
In all fairness - this was always going to be a spectacular silly season. Even if Hamilton stayed put. I hope Bottas ends up at Williams. Just a very likeable guy joining a likeable team mate in a likeable team.
-
Lots of commentors defend Ocon, obviously he has Talent, but his win had a large part to do with Alonso.... who Ocon went on to overly aggressively / bordering dangerously defend from in later races.... when Alonso clearly had the stronger position! He doesn't play the team game... I'd keep K-mag in a heartbeat over him
-
give perez the boot
-
Carlos going to Mercedes and winning both championships would feed generations. Excited for next season!!!
-
If Max and Carlos had an understanding that each would do their part in supporting each other with the emphasis on the team first then RB might be unstoppable. My gut tells me that Carlos wants to be the number one driver on a competitive team but would also accept being a close second as well.
-
It would be absolutely great to see Carlos in Mercedes
-
At this point the only signing im hyped for is where newey goes. I will explode if stroll actually manages to sign him to aston.
-
Why in the world would Haas sign Ocon to be Ollie Bearmans teammate?!? That sounds like quite literally the worst possible option for them.
-
lewis' input in developing the 2026 Ferrari might be something ferrari itself is counting on. he is the missing piece ferrari needed all these years
-
F1 is finally really competitive and 2025 seems to be anyone's championship to win which is great. I'm a bit disappointed that in 2026 the regulations will change again. One team will probably get everything right while the rest take years to catch up... again. What a shame. I wish they would keep the same regs for longer 😪
-
Neil Peart summed Sainz' situation a long time ago: if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
