Russell will most likely wind up as the Mercedes reserve driver and maybe replace the doormat in 2022 or 2023. AND for less money! |

Why isn't Max fighting for a teammate that can compete alongside him instead of one he can beat? Sure he beats Alex but he's no real competition at this point. Does he really think that Nico is THAT good? Orrr is this about money? |

Does he really think that Nico is THAT good? Orrr is this about money? Who else is available who could compete alongside of him? I don't know about you but right now I consider Max, Lewis and LeClerc the top three drivers. Is Perez better than Nico? |

Does he really think that Nico is THAT good? Orrr is this about money? No driver that is considered as a #1 on their team want another driver that can contest their position as #1 - they want a fast #2 that can provide strategy protection during the race. In the Red Bull case, Albon being lapped does not provide that protection. For MB, Bottas being a reliable 20 to 30 seconds behind Hamilton at the finish is providing that protection. |

Antonio and Kimi stay at Alfa, while Latifi and Russell stay at Williams. Surprising lack of appetite for new blood.

I think all the seats are filled now except possible openings at Red Bull and AlphaTauri. I don't think they've said if Kyvat is staying or not and Albon still questionable. My guess is Albon will be with one of the teams and maybe Perez or Hulk in the RB. |

The Evil One has already said Tsunoda is all but a done deal, once he does his 300 Kms in the post Imola test he'll be qualified for F1 practice sessions. 2 or 3 of them and he'll be fit for next year. |

Really the question is does Perez go to HAAS and pair with Mick or does Mazepin buy the seat?
Merc-Same
Red Bull- Max and ??
Ferrari- LeClerc and Sainz
McLaren-Ricci and Norris
Alpha Tauri- Gasly and Tsunoda
Alpha Romeo- Kimi- Gio
Williams- Latifi and Russell
Renault- Alonso and ???
HAAS- Schmacher and ???
Aston Marti- Stroll and Seb

Mazepin, he has more money. Supposedly Perez only brings about 7 mil in team sponsorship of which 4 mil comes back to him as his paycheck.
