Nico Rosbourg has retired....

[Octopus]

Must admit I didn't see that coming and I bet that every driver on the grid is desperately seeking the seat and a way out of their existing contract!

Button for Mercedes for 1 year?

Alonso for Mercedes?

Vettel for Mercedes?


and I thought that the F1 musical chairs had finished for this year...

Just spotted your post Murdoch, I posted similar in the sport forum. Guess Mercs' won't be disciplining Lewis now, ha!

Don't blame Nico, he's been in Lewis shadow for 3 years, according to the media. He has a young family, pots of money and he would be under the spotlight again next year, so whats not to like.

Contract lawyers will be busy in the next few days, but I suspect after all the grief over the last few years, Merc's will go with young driver.

Apparently Me You and Tel lol

Actually I'm told that Tel's a secret admirer of F1, as demonstrated by this picture;

It's a bit like 'Where's Wally', but he's the one at the back shouting abuse & wearing a mankini.

Sorry Tel that was an assumption on my part appologies if I got it wrong, but I don't think I did can't imagine who the other Philistine is if it aint your goodself

 

[Pete999]

Any way what the ---- is Nico Rosbourg? some overpaid Car Driver?

 

[westward10]

F1, golf, cricket, football, no wonder the aliens haven't invaded they wouldn't be able to stand the excitement.

 

[Wes1000]

Sorry guys but I like F1.

I'd love to see the seat go to max verstappen but I should think red bull have him tied up with contracts.

 

[Octopus]

Agree ^^^^

All the top drivers will have water tight contracts so maybe Jenson Button could step in for 1 year (he's beaten Hamilton in their Mclaren era!)

 

[westward10]

Stopp it's killing me.

 

[Wes1000]

Not knocking Jenson but I think he has had his day. He doesn't need to win and has made his money. I can't see him being offered the place.

No that's the hair do and moustache doing that !

My monies on Boris driving for Merc's. Lets face it, he convinced u's guys over Brexit.

Joking aside I obviously don't see the appeal in F1 so what is it that grabs your attention about it.

Racing I suppose, see who can be first. F1's a bit like Marmite
