So will Mercedes grab Verstappen?
That kid will be unbeatable in a Silver Arrow.
They should grab Verstappen if he is not locked into a contract. He is really quick and daring. Also has a long career ahead if he is lucky.
The Mercedes F1 cars have been very fast this year. I have been following the Haas team and think they did better than I expected in their first year.
Agreed. The kid would really have a shot at the World Championship with McLaren...if he didn’t go all Jody S.
Since I don’t much care for Verstappen (way too aggressive, should be penalized more) or Hamilton (can’t post my full opinion here, but also drives too aggressive), I would actually like to see them paired together. The wrecks they would have with each other in turn 1 of every race would be worth it.
But, if Mercedes is committed to Hamilton long term, they will take someone like Wehrlein or another driver who is expected to play the role of cardboard-cutout “B” driver. Hamilton is a self-centered diva who doesn’t want to share anything with anyone.
