2746037, Driver silly season doesn't dissapoint

All in all, none of the moves are surprising. Sad to see Bottas go, but it was happening at some point. May as well now. Albon got a raw deal, so good to see him back. Let's hope Lewis doesn't race him so hard.

The interpersonal play between Hamilton and Russell will be huge. Mercedes cannot afford to have a Rosberg replay. It will be a bit more difficult in the next year or so if Lewis can't get a hold of the new car dynamics or starts to lose a 10th or so. George is the heir apparent, but the old guard won't move without a fight.Who's in their junior driver program?

Driver's Title fight is going down to the wire. Constructors has a little more breathing room. I think both Max and Sergio will have grid penalties coming up when they make the next engine swap, which will hurt. Petronas and co need a really good showing at Monza this year, if for nothing other than wipe the taste of their last outing out of their mouths.
