Quote HistoryQuoted: You serious, Clarke? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Hell of a lot better sponsorship environment back then. It would not surprise me at all if Lewis didn’t drive next year. In his mind, he has transcended the sport and has more important things to offer the world. You serious, Clarke? I can see that for sure! He thinks he is bigger than F1 But I just don't see Merc not wanting him in the car.. and getting another top tier driver on such short notice will be hard. Say what you want about RUS they need someone who can lock down both championships not just win races. |

chinese GP promoter seeking 2021 F1 race postponement
The Chinese Grand Prix is set to become the second Formula 1 race to be postponed in 2021 as the promoter seeks a date change to later in the year. Last year's race in Shanghai was the first to be scrapped following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a further 12 races eventually being cancelled through the 2020 season. F1 unveiled a more usual calendar for 2021 in November, listing 23 races, but is already set to postpone the planned season-opener in Australia due to the ongoing pandemic and global restrictions in place. Doubts had begun to emerge over the viability of the planned race in China on 11 April, but the promoter of the race has now confirmed it is seeking a postponement until later in the year. "We have been in contact [with F1] via conference call almost every week", Yibin Yang, the general manager of race promoter Juss Event, told local media including Autosport on Saturday. "Despite the calendar being in place as usual, I think it's hugely uncertain the F1 race would take place in the first half of the year, in April. "We aim to swap it to the second half of the year, and we have formally submitted the request that we hope to move it to the second half of the year." The postponement of the race would open up a second free slot in April, along with the 25 April date originally intended for the now-abandoned Vietnam race. It is understood that Portimao and Imola - host circuits on the revised 2020 schedule - are set to fill these gaps, having both been in contention to replace Vietnam and begin the European season. Autosport understands the current plan is for Portimao to host the Portuguese Grand Prix on 11 April, replacing China, while Imola will stage a race on 25 April in place of Vietnam. A rescheduling of the Chinese Grand Prix would only add to the challenge F1 faces in the second half of the year, with Australia also set to seek a revised date slot. Provisional updated calendar 28 March - Bahrain GP 11 April - Portuguese GP 25 April - Emilia Romagna GP 9 May - Spanish GP 23 May - Monaco GP 6 June - Azerbaijan GP 13 June - Canadian GP 27 June - French GP 4 July - Austrian GP 18 July - British GP 1 August - Hungarian GP 29 August - Belgian GP 5 September - Dutch GP 12 September - Italian GP 26 September - Russian GP 3 October - Singapore GP 10 October - Japanese GP 24 October - United States GP 31 October - Mexico City GP 14 November - Sao Paulo GP 28 November - Saudi Arabia GP 5 December - Abu Dhabi GP TBC - Australian GP TBC - Chinese GP |

I think there is a 100% chance LH drives for Merc next year, he’d probably do it for free just to get that 8th championship. If the 2022 regulations don’t play into Mercedes's hands I think they(and Lewis) leave the sport. |

Renault F1 boss Abiteboul to leave team ahead of Alpine shake-up
Renault Formula 1 team boss Cyril Abiteboul is leaving the French car manufacturer, it was announced on Monday. The Frenchman had been expected to move into a new role within the company following a management shake-up at the rebranded Alpine squad, but instead he is departing completely. His exit has resulted in Laurent Rossi, director of strategy and business development at Renault, being appointed as the CEO of Alpine. Rossi will take charge of Alpine cars, its F1 team and other motorsport activities. He will report directly to Luca de Meo, Renault's CEO. It is expected that Abiteboul's position as team principal of the F1 squad will be taken by Marcin Budkowski. Speaking about his departure, Abiteboul said that he felt that he was leaving behind a strong base for the French car manufacturer to grow. "I would like to thank the Groupe Renault for having trusted me for many years, particularly with the relaunch and reconstruction of the team since 2016," he said. |

Making my claim now, Hamilton and Merc don't come to a deal. Russel moves to Merc for 2021, replacing Hamilton. Vertappen follows in 2022, replacing Bottas. Hamilton becomes the hot free agent quickly in 2021...no clue where he lands though. |

ETA: Just a word about Brivio, they love him at MotoGP. He's really easy to work with in the paddock, very relaxed atmosphere in his garage. |
