    Ferrari wanted a solid #2 driver, presumably looking forward to their 2022 car in mind. No point having them do a 2007 or 2010 Mclaren where they could've won the title with ease, but their drivers where too busy taking wins of each other.

    Lewis certainly had talent, and so did a bunch of other kids.
    Shrewd Ron probably saw extra marketing $$$ with Lewis, hence the investment.

    No doubt Anthony sacrificed a lot so Lewis could go racing.

    This is not my case, I sincerely hope that he will not experience a career end comparable to Valentino Rossi one’s ..

    However knowing his love of competition it worries me more about Mercedes.
    Indeed I do not imagine him signing for two more years without having the certainty from Toto that they were able to circumvent the budget restrictions..

    Well it will, at the very least, guarantee that the trolls will keep showing up here every other weekend. Maybe if he does decline the trolls will fade away too.

    Good news for Ham. Bad news for Russell.

    Not if Ham thinks he’s too much of a challenger… I think this makes it harder for Rus to get into Merc even though he’s Totos boy. He has to get out of Williams pronto, so it’s now or never for Merc to take him or see him go somewhere else - perhaps McLaren to replace Ric?

    Danny Ric needs a therapist. Carlos is doing a fine job, I like our driver line-up.

    His current results do not suggest this being a possibility

    Absolutely! Ferrari has one of the strongest pairings on the grid. Ricciardo looks like the new Vettel, so why would we want him? o_O
