Who Will be Hamilton's 2022 team mate?

Also George Russell can barely keep a straight face in interviews.

 

Vettel or Russell

Vettel would bring a much needed sense of humour to Mercedes

 

I do think this time Merc will pull the trigger and put Russell in the car for 2022.

 

The butler stays.

 

The most hated pairing on the grid I guess..

 

Russell. I don't see how Seb would be worth the money.

 

Russell and Hammy won’t work. Gorgeous is quick. That’s kind of an issue for someone we all know….

Does Merc need that headache for an entire year if their car is a front runner?

Thinking corporate, I like Hammy and Zhou for 2022. Plenty of coverage for Merc and only one fragile diva to coddle.

 

It’s going to be George all the way.

 

I think very few people hate Vettel these days. He's a good guy - mellow and solicitous towards his competitors, and people like rooting for an underdog.

 

I hope Mercedes keeps Bottas for one more year. He is the ideal tail gunner.
Valteri knows his limits and drives accordingly.
I like that attitude.
Not every driver is WDC material, but few acknowledge that.
Bottas has demonstrated team loyalty, a rare commodity these days.

 

bottas did some amazing work today

 

Yes a driver made a mistake today. Certainly never happens right??? Do we really need to be so petty?? He has literally apologized and offered NO EXCUSES like others in the past.

 

Reminded me of Grosjean Spa 2012.

 

Mercedes will still sh*tcan him without hesitation at the end of the season. They will sign Russell if only to keep him from going to RBR. Marko should make a big play for Russell to at least make him more expensive for Mercedes.

 

One of Fernando's happier moments.

 

Petty? Get a grip. Pot meet kettle with your ad hominem.

I'm sure many fans of lewis are very happy if bottas is not replaced by Russell.

 

Russell will be Lewis's team-mate in 2022....as per CANAL+ (rumor).

 

As Tifosi, I'm not nuts about Merc landing this top tier talent.

As F1 fan, it should be fun to watch him compete.

But really, I just want SF's new 2022 formula car to be a strong enough ride for Carlos and Charles to compete for the WDC/WCC.

 

Show me a driver who never lost control ....

 

The 2022 car will adopt the split-turbo design ala Mercedes and Honda. Honda adopted it in 2017 and it took them 4 to 5 years to catch up

I don't expect the 2022 Ferrari to be running out the gates but it will take some time to catch up....this will be evident on the power tracks of course.

 

show me a driver who took out that many cars and wasn't criticized for it

show me how bottas episode didn't provide a timely rebuttal to your most recent post in this thread

show me a valid reason Mercedes should not give Russell a seat

 

You must be another conspiracy theorist.

 

What conspiracy is that? And how does that even slightly relate to my post?

When you can't respond, you deflect.

 

He was banned the next race. (2012)
