They definitely don’t, it would be fun to see though.

Each series has its advantages and disadvantages. I enjoy all of them

Might all be BS but there are a lot of rumors about Bottas and Cadillac this morning.

Seems odd. He hasn't done anything offensive on track to my recollection. He's driving a shite box. What do you expect? Maybe he's not giving good feedback behind the scenes? That's what he was hired for.

This is probably BS. Lots of reports say they are very happy with the feedback being given by both drivers

This is a learning year and these 2 are really experienced drivers

I’m a Herta fan, he is not ready for F1. He is learning a lot of F2 right now. He wouldn’t be able to give the same feedback as either of the current drivers

Would be surprised to see Herta get the nod over Bottas. Not sure what Herta would bring at this point.

Perez knocked himself out in Canada so not sure how the team is happier with that result.

What did he do exactly?

All I’ve seen is the brake into pits explosion.

More and more outlets running with this. It's either easy clickbait or "some" truth to it. I have a feeling that Bottas is not happy and might be looking for a way out.

If this is true, then there has to be more to the story. Cadillac knows their cars suck and they are working to fix them. They just want to be mid field and feel like they can be.

Either way this is a very interesting rumor for a new team.

Likely all from the same, single "source" so take with a grain of salt.


I can't see Caddy shite canning him. No matter who you put in that car, its going to suck. In the class of driver you are gonna pull, he has the most worthwhile experience and can provide the most developmental feedback for the team.
