Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted April 11 Subscriber Share Posted April 11 We started early this season! Alonso has just signed a multi year extension with Aston Martin so that's one fewer moving part. AMuS were saying that Verstappen and Mercedes have been talking but it doesn't sound likely due to Mercedes' poor performance. Ferrari and Aston Martin are both trying to prise Adrian Newey from Red Bull and his departure could make Verstappen's departure more likely. Audi are waiting for a decision by Sainz on their offer. Perez is an alternative for them if he becomes available. Gasly and Ocon are both open to leaving Alpine so they could be in play as well!

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted May 1 Author Subscriber Share Posted May 1 https://x.com/SkySportsNews/status/1785583082763940015 Should they just cancel all of the races for the rest of the year and do 90 minutes of silly season every other Sunday?

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 7 Author Subscriber Share Posted June 7 Apparently Marko has said that Tsunoda will stay at RB next year alongside Ricciardo or Lawson. I thought he might go to Alpine. Looking like this currently: Red Bull = Verstappen and Perez Ferrari = Leclerc and Hamilton Mclaren = Norris and Piastri Mercedes = Russell and Antonelli(?) Aston Martin = Stroll and Alonso Williams = Albon and Sainz(?) Alpine = Gasly and ??? Haas = Ocon(?) and Bearman(?) RB = Tsunoda and Lawson(?) Sauber = Hulkenberg and ???

Panflute Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Suddenly hearing some rumors of Sainz going to Alpine, since Alpine are in their turn rumored to be using Mercedes motors from 2026 onwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy Posted July 25 Moderator Share Posted July 25 6 minutes ago, Stan said: Could Sainz go to Mercedes? I guess they're still undecided if Antonelli is ready yet. But I think both Mercedes and Red Bull would be stupid not to consider Sainz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 25 Author Subscriber Share Posted July 25 Feels pretty insane that Mercedes could go for a rookie driver and Red Bull could be choosing between proven mid drivers Ricciardo and Tsunoda to partner Max, leaving a very capable race winning driver like Sainz choosing between Alpine, Williams and Sauber. I think the last potential wildcard is if Toto manages to talk Max into ripping up his Red Bull contract and making the change to Mercedes. If that happens then surely Red Bull have to snap up Sainz as their lead driver and partner him with Yuki/Daniel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 29 Author Subscriber Share Posted July 29 He'll surely be disappointed with that when Mercedes still don't have a driver and Red Bull will have either Perez, Ricciardo or Tsunoda in one of their seats.

Unknowns remaining: Will Perez keep his seat? Will Mercedes opt for Antonelli or someone else? Who will drive for RB? Who will partner Hulkenberg at Sauber? I'm thinking Perez will stay initially, Mercedes will go for Antonelli, Tsunoda and Lawson at RB and possibly Bottas will be retained by Sauber alongside Hulk.
