Mercedes #F1 driver wanted | Who will it be in 2025?
Manage episode 399031914 series 3550632
We have dubbed it F1's News of the Century: Lewis Hamilton's sensational move to Ferrari at the end of this season has the Formula 1 world in a proper spin, as no one saw it coming.
In this episode 17 of NewsDesk Unplugged podcast Paul Velasco & Jad Mallak discuss who might be the driver to fill Hamilton's shoes. There will be a list of drivers calling Mercedes boss Toto Wolff to offer their services.
One could hazard a bet and reckon that the first call would've been from Fernando Alonso! Seriously though, the list of candidates will be long and include the likes of Valtteri Bottas returning. Mick Schumacher stepping up from the reserve role, teenage sensation Kimi Antonelli, Wolff protege Esteban Ocon? What about Lando Norris? And Sebastian Vettel making a return? He is younger than Lewis after all.
Whatever the case the F1 Silly Season will be a long one, starting as early as 1 February this year! Beyond Hamilton's move, there is likely to be a flurry of activity on the driver market until 2025 is upon us.
Whereupon Lewis Hamilton will don the Red of Ferrari, in the footsteps of some of the sport's greatest driver for another chapter of his remarkable F1 career.
Paul & Jad share thoughts on the earliest starting, and sure to be the longest, F1 Silly Season in the sport's history!
