And as we speak:

Wehrlein to miss first Barcelona F1 test

He'll be replaced by Antonio Giovinazzi, since he's already in the factory to do a seat fit.

This reminds me of the one legendary Michael Schumacher who was rumoured to make a comeback in F1 back in 2009 to replace the injured Felipe Massa, but because he had a bike accident and injured his neck, he wasn't fit enough to do the job.

I was thinking actually exactly the same, yeah.

while also sending off 4 Hamilton players to make it more interesting"

Would be interesting to see how the deal looks concidering that three teams are involved and hear the reasons for not going with a Merc affiliated driver.

Or you might as well put Gutierrez back in that Sauber, but then I wonder why you should, because you would still only notice one Sauber on track. :P

You skip tests to recover more fully for the part that really matters.
