@to3k @f1 I heated the name Schumacher but I wouldn’t pick him. As a ‘new’ team a experienced driver is a must. Norris or Albon might be a good fit. And what about Sainz and/or Leclerc. The latter probably stays at Ferarri. Next to the experienced driver get a talent.
@IngenieurStefan @f1 A lot may change through all these years till 2026 😉 But one I can 100% agree and it’s that a new team needs an experienced driver. Surprisingly Schumacher jr may be that guy as he will get a lot of experience in Mercedes even as 3rd (reserve) driver. This is probably better for him than being 1st or 2nd in Williams or Haas IMO 😉 Ricciardo would be probably also good, but I would rather pick some rookie from F2 instead 😉
@to3k @f1 I think Schumacher will move into endurance or sport cars. But who knows! Ricciardo would be fun! But 2026 is a far far away.. (Que yellow letters in front of a dark starry night)..
@IngenieurStefan @f1 Yes I wondered if he would not be too old till then… But for one season or two Daniel would be really helpful as a really experienced driver who already saw several team from inside 😉
@to3k @f1 I hope Daniel gets one more chance. But I also feel for the talent that doesn’t get a chance anymore. You used to get a test to prove yourself, get some time to show your speed. Nowadays you show up at the beginning of the year, get 1,5 days and go racing! And yes I’m aware of simulators. But Merc can tell you: It’s just not the same.
