So Jenson Button's contract is up at the end of this year. Assuming Magnussen will stay at McLaren next year, who do you think will partner him?
McLaren might opt to renew Button's contract for another year. Does he have the potential to deliver them another drivers' world championship though? If not he is at least consistent, and does get regular points for the team which may help them in their fight for the constructors' world championship.
Another possible option is Alonso. He seems to be getting increasingly disillusioned with Ferrari, and although there has been bad blood between him and McLaren in the past Ron Dennis has expressed a willingness to put it behind him. The bad blood between them was quite a long time ago now too, so things have more than likely settled.
The third option is Hulkenberg. He's proven over the last few seasons to be exceptionally talented, and maybe even a potential WDC winner. Plus, he has quite a decent amount of F1 experience now.
Another option might be Grosjean. He has shown last year that when given a decent car he can race right up there with the best. He also seems to have calmed down quite a bit on track, and to have matured significantly as a driver over the last season. With his ex-team boss Boullier now being at McLaren, could a potential move there for Grosjean be on the cards?
Are there any other drivers you think McLaren might try to get? Let everyone know in the comments!
