Phenomenal journalism.... 😵💫
From this we can conclude that Stroll is a WDC in waiting?
This kid must be epic, McLaren would have to pay DR off, and presumably pay Alpine off too...
Seems a reasonable assumption. Personally I’d love to see someone like Jamie Chadwick given a seat of sorts. She’s too good for the W series…..

Are you sure? Did it not say that the kid had not yet signed a renewal with Alpine?
And for McLaren, makes sense to cut your losses and pay a little fine to get rid of a driver ruining their chances to fight higher up in the championship.
But it does go on to say that maybe there was a cut off date of 31st Aug.... perhaps, maybe. Either way. Pretty stupid way to start your F1 career, he should learn from Alonso's mistakes.
Is it a reasonable assumption though, now that Ricciardo has proven in two teams that he aint worth the high price tag? Maybe Alpine get desperate and make him a low bargain offer and buys him cheap for a 1 year deal before they find a a proper driver?
He'd be lucky to get 5%. I hear Williams need someone to support Albon
