Ferrari made a good move for the future. Sainz and leclerc should serve the prancing horse for a while, as neither have reached their peak. Team dynamic should be better than with Vettel as well.

Danny moving to Mclaren is interesting, but probably smart. Even though the rumor has been Renault will be on point with the new regs, their PU still has issues (which really puzzled me when he moved from RB to end up using the same unreliable engine and trans). With Mclaren having the aero back on track AND using Mercedes power, that could be a very dangerous combination. Assuming things work better for the Woking team than when they were on Honda power, they also set themselves up nicely to jump the midfield.

So... does Vettel retire? A scenario with Petronas dumping Bottas and giving Vettel the seat sounds stupid. I can't see him running with Renault, unless there's something huge up their sleeve that either Danny didn't know or didn't care about. Could The Hulk come back to Renault next year?

Silly season indeed, before we turn a wheel in competition this year...
