Is he still? I know Toto had a part in his move to Alpine, but I assumed he was clear of Merc itself now.


Ocon isn't going to Merc no matter what happens.

I don't see any way Ric would go to AT and don't know why AT would even consider it. AT is the RB junior team, with it's drivers expected to prove themselves to move up to be Max's wingman. Dannyboy isn't going to be Max's teammate again.

The natural place for Ric is Alpine, but he likely burned that bridge when he dumped them for McLaren.

Been reported in a couple places that any decision on MiniSchu has been pushed back to Monza.

Makes sense to me. He didn't do much of anything until the last few races. Prove its not just a flash in the pan.

I feel like it’s not very fair considering the absolute shite box he had last year. Like he might as well have been in F2. He raced no one for an entire year.

KMag was out for a year, and even had one less preseason test, and has still kicked his arse all over the track.

Q results are 11-2 for Mag as an example.

And Kevin hasn't destroyed two cars.

There will be some time until McLaren confirms Oscar Piastri's new contract, as the team will wait for Ricciardo to find his next destination before making a formal announcement. This information has recently been provided by racer.com, as fans and pundits alike work to plot the upcoming developments in this transfer saga. Daniel Ricciardo made a statement in early July to end the rumours which - at the time - suggested his position within McLaren was precarious. Regrettably, this statement has aged quite catastrophically, as the Woking squad has made moves behind the scenes to secure the services of Oscar Piastri for 2023 and beyond. McLaren informed Ricciardo that he would be replaced shortly after the Hungarian GP, giving the Australian a chance to explore his options throughout the summer. The team will now wait for the 33-year-old to finalise his plans for next season before announcing Oscar Piastri's arrival. McLaren is aware of the social media tornado that recent developments have generated and will work to ensure Ricciardo is not bombarded with questions about his future without knowing the answer. The ideal scenario appears for Ricciardo to slot into the remaining Alpine seat, returning to his old team, which has built a solid platform as a manufacturer. Ricciardo will receive handsome monetary compensation for the premature termination of his contract, though it is clear his relationship with McLaren has not materialised as once hoped. The two parties will act professionally as their time together comes to an end, but there can only be a certain level of cordiality when a team decides to replace a driver. At least for now, there could be some waiting before McLaren provides some clarity on recent speculation.

Helmut back talking shite lol

Helmut Marko on Ferrari

“It's just a bit of a shame that Ferrari makes so many mistakes. They're beaten below their value, we really feel sorry for them. But once again, they'll be back. They have such a powerful car.”

Is this about the other MSB thread you disappeared from when you realized the "peons" quote was made up by another poster?

Gasley and Occon would never be on the same team from what I understand. They have had quite a fallout after being close and now can’t stand each other.


I’ve been wrong before though

Reading further on Andretti and F1.

It seems Andretti is pretty butt hurt calling F1 European Boys club BUT its hard to argue that F1 needs another power unit consumer team in my opinion.

If America wants to get into F1 in a real way I believe it's going to take an American Car manufacturer partnership with Andretti. His original plan was a partnership with Renault?!?!?

How is this really any different than what Haas brings to the table?

I have a hard time believing DRic would go back to Red Bull Junior. Probably more likely to end up at a worse team like Williams than admitting defeat like that
