There hasn't been any "new" teams added to the squad in a long time, so adding Russel for that team would be a great addition.
As far as I know Cadillac is in talks with 3 drivers currently:
• Sergio Perez
• Valtteri Bottas
• Mick Schumacher
Perez is already about to sign for them. They are expected to announce him after the Hungarian GP. His teammate is unknown for now. They say it's gonna be Bottas or Mick.
Truthfully if I were in their place to pick one of these names, I'd choose Mick. I don't think they should sign 2 old drivers. It'd be better to have one young driver.
I'd like to see Mick Schumacher in there but the kid is no good and prolly shouldn't be in F1. He'd be more like a liability than an asset. But Formula E would prolly be good for him.
And I wouldn't say that both Perez and Bottas aren't exactly old. The still have a tad over couple of years of F1 in them. So handing both the 'standard' 3 year contract would be fine.
Since you mention formulaE and after several years of having it, what are your thoughts about it?
I mean I feel like the serie works for what was made but in the end never build his fan base. And ende up being always more like a develop division and a propaganda for the electric automotion and to show how powerfull the electric motors can be since we were staring in the hibrid era in Formula1.
I don't watch it. It's just too boring with the cars having close to no engine noise. Lol. Even F1 got a tad boring after switching to the V6 Turbo. We need the screaming sounds of the aspirated engines.
Anyway, there's some words swirling around that Hamilton has a performance clause in his Ferrari contract that he could return to Mercedes. And get this, Toto Wolff is still interested in acquiring Verstappen even if Hamilton returns.
