Definitely a better prospect than the Renault team who have under-performed since they bought the team back from Lotus. 6 minutes ago, Tommy said: https://www.autobild.de/artikel/formel-1-vettel-sagt-mclaren-ab-16850573.html Apparently Vettel rejected McLaren. He wants the Mercedes seat or quit the sport, according to Autobild. A blessing in disguise for McLaren potentially. Danny Ricciardo is probably more of a driving force than Seb at this point in their careers. Seb vs Lewis in Mercedes would be interesting but I can't see it happening. Bottas only has a one year contract though so that could be one to watch. Even if it isn't Vettel who replaces him, there could be a change afoot there anyway while we're getting silly.

It would be absolutely amazing tho. The two oldies driving against the youngsters together. Like those movies where old cops are close to retirement and have to solve one big case together.

They always look deep into each others eyes. Is quite intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoyed Bahrain in 2018. He pitted on lap 18 and held off Bottas who was on much fresher rubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what is his next plan now? Renault? Doubt it. I read theories that he could join Racing Point which would be Aston Martin at this point. But who are they going go axe? Checo? Doubt it. And surely Lawrence won't sack his own son. I believe that's it for Seb, unless Toto wants to create an All-Star team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
