Does Hamilton know something we don't? https://www.msn.com/en-au/sport/other/adrian-newey-spotted-on-ferrari-land-amid-fresh-red-bull-exit-offer-rumours/ar-BB1lIAmb?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=f1b2ff3816e94581a47a3117e56be03f&ei=67 Newey had gone to some car exhibition or race. When he was spotted, ...

I assume Tsunoda has never driven this track before, definitely not in an F1 car.

Oh yeah...good point. But it's true also that Ricciardo has gotten a new chassis too.

Ricciardo having the edge over Tsunoda which could be either because Ricciardo does well at China OR because he has got a new chassis.

Strongly disagree that he is usually poor in the wet. In my opinion, he is usually pretty good or great in the wet, and sometimes poor. When was the last time he was good ? (I don't just mean better than he is in the dry, I mean genuinely good). At face value I would have agreed with TheGiantHogwee...

Superb from Hamilton. Rolled back the years. Probably the 6th fastest car out there in this session at best. Well, there were 6 teams in the top 10. I wouldn't say that Mercedes were worse than Sauber. All this said, Hamilton was the most impressive driver in the session. True. Hamilton's classy in...

Looking forward to this weekend. I think there was a bit of criticism from drivers about this being a sprint weekend with F1 not having raced here for five years. Hopefully everything is fine and we don't have another Qatar. China doesn't get as hot or put such load on tyres. If keeping only 1 prod...

Interesting if true and of course would make total sense. “Carlos Sainz has been chosen by Mercedes as Lewis Hamilton’s replacement for the 2025 F1 season, according to Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.” https://www.crash.net/f1/news/1046710/1/rumours-swirl-italy-mercedes-have-chosen-lewis-ha...

This seems a lot more likely to me - https://twitter.com/SportmphMark/status/1778726142565896375 Yeah It's believable amongst all the rumours and counter rumours, it does make you wonder why Norris passed the litmus test though, do they have to run it past Verstappen?

Had read today morning that Audi are urging Marko to make a decision regarding Perez. Audi seem to be interested in getting Perez over & this could be a good move for Perez to headline a manufacturer team.

A question to all:

Which driver-team pairing could be as massive as Hamilton & Ferrari's move?

Had Alonso joined Red Bull, that move could've been as Earth shattering as Hamilton's. Antonelli to Mercedes could also be in a similar category as a rookie joining a top tier team.

UnlikeUday

"I'm here to stay" statement seems as if it's an indirect taunt to Mercedes & Red Bull for not accepting his demands or his candidature as a whole.

UnlikeUday

Ironic thing is whilst all the good drivers are running about to get a drive for 2025, Stroll is warming his seat & will keep doing so to Krakk's amusement.

UnlikeUday

Seems Aston were the only team that were ready to offer Alonso a multi-year contract as opposed to other teams giving 1 year to fill the gap to 2026.

Wonder if he also re-signed cause of Newey?

UnlikeUday

This could mean either: - Alonso doesn't want to drive as a no. 2 driver to Verstappen & be his supportive aid to help win WDC & WCC with Verstappen as the star OR - Alonso wants to command his worth in Red Bull & make that team work for him as he (probably) thinks he's as good as Verstappen or bett...

Rumour:
Renault is considering selling the Alpine team with the condition that the new owner/team uses Renault as their engine supplier till 2029.

I agree. We don't need to see 5 seasons of Sergio Perez in the second best seat on the grid. Why second best seat; the Redbull is the outright best seat at the moment. This is not the first time we are seeing this though; I remember the years of suffering through Barrichello/Kovalainen/Massa/Webber...

Ridiculous & delusional of the Aston Martin employees if you were to ask me: Yes and no, IMO. Obviously, it's ridiculous that if you're thinking of replacing one Aston Martin driver with Sainz, it would be Alonso. Replacing Stroll with Sainz (or just about anyone else, for that matter) would clearl...

Sainz's only deserved move would be Red Bull as that team is still the best. But Checo is doing good enough to keep that seat his.
