Who is going to be paired with George Russell for 2025?

GO!

Andrea Kimi Antonelli (aka Kimi Antonelli) - °2006 - Italy:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Kimi_Antonelli

Announced in 2019 (when he was only 12-13 yr) by the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1 Team as part of the Mercedes Junior Team.

Super talent expected to make waves in F2 this year (skipping F3 because he's really good).

Toto Wolff's opportunity to get his own 'Max Verstappen' in 2025, for way less money.

Flavio Briatore, manager of Alonso, posted a picture on his Instagram of having breakfast with Toto Wolff in Monte Carlo earlier this week.

Maybe they merely discussed what they thought about the Michael Mann 2023 movie "Ferrari".

G30M · 02-15-2024, 01:36 AM

the way it's looking, they might have to put Christian Horner in the seat

unlikely, but anything's possible at this point in time

Fernando maximising his contract negotiation opportunities. As long as the Aston is up there in the lead pack he will be staying. If it isn’t then it’s on for young and old.

As always the best looking car on the grid. They’ve got a great team. It’s going to be a fascinating season.

Also.

Two spectacular videos.

Great looking car...just the colour.

Adding to the mix. Wolff and Jos seen publicly together in Bahrain. Horner accusing Jos on having made the leaks. Jos threatening that Max will leave Red Bull. Potentially more musical chairs opening.

Team mate for Russell for 2025: either a 'placeholder' for Kimi (a driver willing to accept a 1-year only Mercedes contract) or otherwise Kimi straightaway.

Let's dig this post up in the future.
