Silly Season 2018/2019

What if Mercedes made Webber an offer for 2010?

He might've spent the twilight years of his career in an inconsistent car and team.

I think RIC made the right move. Staying my at RedBull the chance would be he would end up like Webber, frustrated and feeling like a number two drivers next to Marko’s favorite.
Works seats (especially with the downgrade of McLaren are scarce and the top three have big talent programs and/or have a steady number one. Mercedes is impossible as long as Hamilton is there (at least two more seasons) and Vettel is quite firm at Ferrari. So that leaves Renault. A team that is slowly building up their workforce and have the ambition to make it a top four instead of top three. Already a good chance they will be fighting RedBull next year with a still in developing Honda.

What if Mercedes made Webber an offer for 2010?

Depends. I think he's a bit superstitious and he had a near death experience in a Mercedes before, so I doubt he would be tempted to step into that Merc, but did he got an offer to drive for Ferrari as well alongside Fernando in 2010?

Why would they have made an offer to a driver who had spent most part of his career in midfield and an unproven quantity in 2009? Webber got his first win in July 2009 and that was the peak time for offer discussions for 2010.

RIC is better then Webber will ever be and he isn't a number two driver. If he performs better then Max and a change for WK he will get a nr.1 and vice versa for Max pretty simple huh.
And no, Renault will not be there next year, they simply not have the budget. Only stupid luck and cheap new talents could perhaps get them there. But with the stubbornness of Abiteboul I don't see that happen.

Can people stop posting if they are only posting what they wish to see and stupid fanboi hate post.

So, with Stroll likely being shoehorned into a "Stroll Racing" seat next year, perhaps a swap with Ocon? Will Kubica get a chance at Williams? Will Williams even make it? Losing Stroll's funding and their main sponsor, they'll be hurting next year.

I'm more thinking a swap with Perez. Williams could use the Mexican money and a team built around Perez wouldn't be bad for him at all.

Williams better take that Mercedes B deal before the new Force India does, don't know how the team survives otherwise.

Renault B team.

I think Maclaren already have that gig sewn up.

[iotar__]

I wonder whose son Force India will hire on merit and who will be his cherry picked team-mate?

F1 - sandbox for billionaire's talentless offspring and marketing eggshells, including "programs". Absurd driver situation should be the major talking point for Brawns, Careys etc. Is it? No, who needs talent on track when you can create one in media.

Now Marko "denies veto rumours" - told you, the farce continues.
