    Yes I agree .
    They will utilise him next season .

    I can only think there is a clause that allows Colapinto to be recalled , if there is a need to do so .

    It also sounds like Ferrari would take back Sainz, not sure how true that rumour is but I read it somewhere.

    No, I doubt he will continue after the coming 3 years. Guess it depends on his motivation and performance. I read somewhere they don't rule out a return for Sainz after the Lewis era. It wasn't about problems already.
    I am looking forward to this new season, hope I am not disappointed.

    Yes I’d guess it’s more about the fact that will the grid looks fairly stable, it isn’t really.

    If Piastri adds a bit more qualifying speed and consistency, then it’s hard to see both he and Norris continuing in the same team for long.

    If Max moves to Aston or Merc it will trigger a big shake up as RedBull will have to buy in one of the big drivers.

    Would Hamilton really hang around for long if Charles dominates him? Will that come too quickly for Bearman to be his natural replacement

    Aston will come good eventually and Fernando has to stop in the next couple of years.

    Stroll SR is a horrid person .

    Hugely successful Business man , and they are usually hard nosed buggers .

    He however is a vile uncaring so & so and a BULLY .

    Lance is IMHO a better driver than he is given credit for .

    I just can’t abide his attitude and it’s NEVER his fault .

    Fair enough - I’d never really heard anything about Stroll SNR (positive or negative) sounds like you’re much better informed.

    A few years back I’d have agreed with respect to Lance, but I think I’ve reached the point now where what promise he showed originally hasn’t been fulfilled. Ironically the lack of pressure coming from his “seat for life”, may well be the reason for that.

    I think Lance should step aside. The new era and management may require that. As for Big Daddy, to be that successful you have to be hard. Otherwise you are taken advantage of and you would not have got there in the first instance. I don't have a problem with that.

    I did say he was a hard nosed bugger and I don’t have a problem with that either .
