I saw a click bait that said Perez wants $20M to go away.

They are going to lose nearly that much by finishing third in WCC vs first this year. And ultimately will cost then Max if they keep him

Dude is fucking toast.

Hamilton is fucking flying out there.

[deft 6885]

Not sure why Ferrari thought Sainz was going to listen when they spent the whole race ignoring his input and he's got 2 races left with them.

Besides Ferrari’s complete inability to actually have a strategy, what specifically was Leclerc upset with?

[kevwun 15928]

Sainz didn't pull away from Verstappen so that he would have DRS and it kept Sam from being able to pass him for several laps.  I can't blame him because it helped get him a podium.

[Goofyboy 3297]

Sainz had three races left with Ferrari. If I’m him, I’m going for the best for me. It’s obvious the team still can’t plan a race, so why bother playing fair.

[kevwun 15928]

Mercedes handled Hamilton much better.  They let him try to catch Russell with no instructions.

Perez is amazing. Dude is just stealing money now.

As for Stroll, I wonder if Daddy is taking his "salary" out of Lance's inheritance.

Yep ...

People already talking about hoping Herta gets a seat. Dude's pretty meh if you ask me. It's not like he's exactly lit up IndyCar, and I personally don't really see him as a promising F1 talent. Surely there's someone else in the pipeline. Having an American driver is not top priority imho, at least not at the very beginning. They'll need good drivers to help them develop, from whatever country.

[kevwun 15928]

If it's a necessity, they should get an American for the 2nd seat and the best driver they can get for the first.

[wood 11283]

Dan Wheldon's 15 yo is racing & looking good. Could be one to keep an eye on.

[wood 11283]

Wouldn't surprise me if at some point we see Michael Andretti announced as Team Principal.

I genuinely hope they build an academy, don't go the Haas or some of the other team ways where their "academy" is one dude in f2

I'd like to see Alex Palou in an F1 car. He isn't American but he has been racing in America for several years and clearly is the best at where he is.

Same. Palou is far and away the best driver in Indy, and it would be really cool to see how he does in F1. I think he'd do very well and could be a top 10 driver on the grid once he gets some experience and has a chance to acclimate.

 

Palou raced some in the junior categories in Europe and showed some strong potential. There's actually a F3 race where he raced in Spain against Albon and Leclerc. He burned up his tires, because he wasn't used to having nurse Pirellis since he wasn't full time driver in the series, but he showed his potential before his tires gave out. Leclerc won obviously, because he's God's gift to racing and a future WDC (no bias from me on this description).

 

I'll see if I can find it. It would make for some good offseason watching.
