If I was Mercedes, I'd quite like to look at Russell in the next race. Hamilton can't win the number of wins in a season record now so I reckon he won't be busting a gut to get back. There isn't much point. Bottas might like to see Hamilton back as losing to him does him less damage. I reckon Russell will drive for Mercedes in the next race.0

Nice to see George Russell doing so well in his first start in the Mercedes - it certainly is a good car and the engineers have done a great job. Must be a significant advantage driving this car?

Having slept on it, as much as I’m sure George is absolutely gutted that’s still an unbelievable drive that he can be proud of. To even end up top 10 after what happened is some achievement. Surely he’s in that merc by 2022 latest.0

Bottas would have come in, would have been on fresh tyres and right behind Russell for the restart, we'd have seen one outcome which would have been
(1) Bottas
(2) Russell0 -

I believe Hamilton's deal with Mercedes runs out next year. Seeing as he has won everything going & beating all the records I think it's time he really tested himself. Sign for one of the lesser teams & see if he can win with a Suber or a Renault. He doesn't need the money so let him pit his wits in an inferior car - that will see how good he really is.0

He won races in the 2009 McLaren that was a total dog.
He has nothing to prove and there is no reason why he should have to do what none of the other generational talents did (unless they had no other choice)10 -
I wouldn't be surprised if it's a one year deal with an option for a second with Lewis. With the rule changes for 22' to come too maybe one season under them, set the bar at 9 WDCs and go out in style.
For me the biggest question is who's alongside George when Lewis eventually retires? I just don't see Verstappen in the environment Toto has built at Mercedes and I couldn't see them getting Leclerc out of Ferrari because Charles wants to be a Ferrari WDC in memory of Jules Bianchi.2 -
Spoilt rich boy posts video on Snapchat... has to offer apology.
What do Haas do? They need his Dad's cash.0 -
Hmmmm - he's got previous as well from what I remember. His dad is also apparently well in with the Russian mafia so good luck with the Haas HR team in dealing with that one.
As such, I'm sure this will be brushed under the carpet, and the F1 community can get back to Lewis Hamilton's trousers or whatever else he has done that has annoyed someone.0 -
Probably just press talk but didnt anyone see that both Bottas and Russell have removed Mercedes and Williams from their Instagram or Twitter bio's (cant remember which) - Of course its started some mini speculation that we're suddenly going to see a change in drivers for next year0

It triggered quite a good response from MercedesAMGF1 Instagram though:

Hamilton back in the Merc this weekend.
Gutted for George, felt like Mercedes owe him one after that colossal fuck up last weekend.3 -

Glad to see Lewis is fit and healthy enough to race this weekend . George put down one hell of marker for the future last weekend and has probably given Toto some headaches.5

I don't know but am guessing that if Hamilton was to win another title next year, he might retire. He seems to have so many other interests. I do think that something that may motivate him to go on would be a Ferrari drive in 2022. Of course they would need to be competitive, but it would be icing on the cake and what a wonderful cake.0

I really feel sorry for Bottas with regards to Russell
Find it really disrespectful to him the way the media keep asking about George taking his seat for next year
As Russell has pretty much just said on Sky F1
Its up to the media to create those headlines, yet leave the drivers out of it0 -
Abu Dhabi disappoints yet again. They really need to make changes to this track.
This track provides more fuel to the “f1 is a procession” argument than anything else imo.The trouble is, the Emiratis put so much money in, the FIA can’t afford to piss them off, but they surely have to get them to make changes.4 -
This track is just awful for a finale. I'd love for them to go back to Interlagos for the final round but money talks it seems.4

Most boring race of the season.]
Why on earth did Hamilton not let Russell take his seat today? He clearly wasn't fit enough himself to put any kind of challenge in.2 -

I just don’t see what Lewis had to gain today. He’s clearly still getting over COVID, it was a dead rubber. Cars had their engines turned down.
literally could have stayed at home with his feet up. It’s not like he had anything to prove - he’s a seven times world champion after all5 -
Abu Dhabi track is so boring1

Ferrari are no longer the cult F1 outfit they once were by a long way and aren’t the ‘must drive for them to prove myself’ team.
Ask any F1 driver which team they would most like to drive for and I doubt a single one of them would say Ferrari.1 -
