I really ended up quite liking Seb. I think there's a very good, considered, intelligent person in there.

I hope he finds something suitable, if he does want to continue in F1.

 

[BrunoBæ]

Yeah he sounds like a reasonable guy.
But I somewhat waited something like this - because he would never have accepted to be considered as #2 guy in the team.
And just as a rhetorical question then - would anybody think he would be lieving Ferrari now if Leclerc hadnt been the other driver in the team?

I wonder is he quitting the sport or will he try to find another seat? If he wants a real challenge he should move to Williams and maybe attract some money to the team. Probably wouldn't be winning any championships but he could maybe save the team from oblivion.

The empty seat in Ferrari is going to cause some upsets in the driver line up. I wonder who's even free to move to Ferrari?

 

[ears]

Maybe they'll promote Giovinazzi.

Then Seb can be put out to pasture with Kimi at Beta Romeo.

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

I have a feeling he will do something radically different, maybe go to university do an engineering degree? I don't think we will see him as a hanger on to the circus, doesn't seem like the type top do so.

Its no surprise. They havent given him a car capable of winning the title then bring in Leclerc and try force Vettel to be #2. Just hope Hamilton isnt stupid enough to join Ferrari. Personally think Hamilton could end up moving to Aston Martin with Wolff if that happens. Not sure about Vettel. Doesnt seem ready to retire but dont think he will want to run around in the mid field.

Hey Fernando... it's hammer time !

 

[Trebor901]

Italian. German and Spanish media all now reporting that Sainz will be confirmed at Ferrari in 48 hours.

"he was seen by the team as the man who could achieve what Fernando Alonso failed to do"

Is that what Ferrari thinks? That it's Vettel and Alonso's fault Ferrari didn't win? Ferrari ruined the careers of two of the best drivers because they couldn't make a car that's fast enough.

Hey Fernando... it's hammer time !

If you ask Grosjean then I think I know the answer of who deserve the Ferrari seat.

Yeah, I know...

Maldonado, right ?
