GIO is filling the Ferrari chosen seat at Alpha. He's part of their young driver program. I don't think he has more seasons left TBH, I only think he's there because he's Italian and Ferrari want an Italian in the sport.

Renault became Alpine this year. Both have driven for Renault/Alpine at this point.

Considering how the divorce of RIC and Renault went (Cyril was pretty emotional about it) I don't think he'd be welcome back. Both drivers have a multi-year contract with their current teams and I don't see either terminating early.

I see Bottas moving to Alpha Romeo filling Kimi's seat (if Kimi retires) and GIO being dropped in favor of MSC to fill the Ferrari picked seat.

Williams may pick up another driver from the Merc program or get another pay driver to fill in George's seat if he gets moved to MB.
