Let's see if he can continue to challenge over the remaining races and not balls up anymore! I don't see him putting it across Charles, he didn't at the weekend, and Sochi is not a strong track for Seb either. The flag wave on the podium seemed a bit desperate tbh, bit like saying 'hey i'm back now so all is normal I am number 1 here' No, Seb the normal is that Leclerc is quicker than you and will continue to be so. |

If he had driven more like that all season, the title would be closer and we’d be praising him a lot more

Certainly Ferrari seemed to have caught Merc up, just a shame it had to happen after the summer break

Not sure if this should be it's own thread, but one change in the works that was reported days ago, but I don't think it has been mentioned here is the impending name change for Toro Rosso. Name in 2020 will be "Alpha Tauri" (Red Bull fashion brand)
I am having a hard enough time not calling Racing Point by their old Force India name. I expect I (and everyone else) will have a hard time switching to Alpha Tauri. Wouldn't it just be easier to call them... Minardi? Richard |

Not seen it mentioned elsewhere - Giovinazzi has signed an extension to stay at Alfa for next year:

Yep, saw that too. Means Hulk is almost certain to be off to DTM now

He had his chance and did not really light any fires. Albon on the other hand has grasped the opportunity and outscored Max in their races together. He deserves to have kept the Red Bull seat.

Keeping Albon in the senior squad is probably the best solution. We’ll see what Kyvat and Gasly can do with STR
So that just leaves the seat at Williams to be decided, will probably be Latifi |

I appreciate and applaud the effort. However, if it is just window dressing, I don't think they should bother.
I find the following info (pulled from the motorsports magazine link above) interesting. It is the distribution of the F1 carbon footprint Quote:

I had read that article as well. It's funny how my focus was simply on the cars alone. For example, F1 vs FE on the track.

Albon will continue to drive for Red Bull next season. That's no surprise given his perfomance this year. I hope the RB system doesn't spit him out if he suffers a poor few races.
The Toro Rosso ( Alpha Tauri next year) drivers are also staying put. https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/14...o-drivers-stay |

i also think its the right decision but at the same time what else could RB have done?
is there anyone in the junior ranks ready for promotion? if there was i suspect Marko would not have been able to resist the urge to turn the flame up another notch. |

Albon fits the bill better than anyone else available. Plus he's on quite a rapid upwards curve so it's sensible to believe he will do wven more next year.

New dumb F1 rumor supposedly from Germany.
Penske and Mazepin are leading suiters to take over Mercedes program when they leave in 2021. Penske told a couple Indy reporters he's not at all interested. Anyone else thinking Mercedes is trying to spread rumors they're leaving to get a bigger cut? https://racer.com/2019/11/16/penske-...t-speculation/ |
