FORMULA 1 2024

So breaking news before the start of the 2024 season:

Lewis Hamilton appears to be making a move to Ferrari for the 2025 season

A major shock as he signed a two year contract with Mercedes last season. So whether it was one year with an opt out clause for 2025 is anyone's guess.

This seems to be anything but a silly season rumour!

MOTORSPORT: HAMILTON TO FERRARI 

SKY NEWS: HAMILTON TO FERRARI FOR 2025 

A lot more news happening but I'll post that later. For now, I need to go and have a lie down 😂

NB As Charles Leclerc has just signed a contract extension with Ferrari, it looks as if Lewis would be replacing Carlos Sainz.

It won't be a popular move. Also, not sure how Mercedes will handle that news THIS year as Lewis is driving for them until the end of 2024.

Will they put all their eggs in George Russells basket? (Hamilton came 3rd in the drivers championship last year and Russell came 8th)

Questions Questions!!🤔

Ah. Shenanigans. 👍🏼

It's Saudi Arabia this weekend. Different track, much faster. Let's hope the other teams have a chance to do something in 3 days!

Bahrain was an evening race with a track temperature of 17c. Both Mercedes were told to 'lift and coast' for much of the race as the 'power units were overheating'. Saudi is expecting track temps of 34c!!

I despair really.

Max to Mercedes 😬

I should imagine they will get rid of Horner before they would want Max on his bike

[MI5]

Horner is finished.

Ford reconsidering their sponsorship deal too.... First of many sponsors to potentially pull out.

[Cleoriff]

Yes, the pay off to his 'victim' didn't work. The documents released to the dutch press made sure of that. With Marko and Jos turning against Horner his position is untenable.

Thought it was more than pathetic seeing Geri in the paddock holding Horners hand as a gesture of 'standing by her man' was pathetic. I noticed CH wasn't on the pit wall on Saturday.

Toto has said today.. 'it's far to early for him to be making decisions on the replacement for Lewis'. 🙄

I hope Ferrari snaffle Adrian Newey. 😂

SAUDI ARABIAN  F1 (PRACTICE 1)

SAUDI (Practice 2)

A change at the top for P2

So BREAKING NEWS. 8th March 2024

Carlos Sainz has been diagnosed with appendicitis and has been taken to hospital for surgery.

His place in P3 and Qualy and the race, will be taken  by their reserve driver 18 year old OLIVER BEARMAN

What an opportunity for him.
