Well, Nico Rosberg has made it clear that he has no intention of returning to the circus.
There are some obvious candidates and some less obvious ones.
Carlos Sainz Jr?
Esteban Ocon?
Alex Albon?
Fernando Alonso?
Valtteri Bottas?
Daniel Ricciardo?
Sebastian Vettel?
Most unlikely, but a possibility: Max Verstappen?
Maybe Mick Schumacher, Toto made him a reserve driver in 2023.
How about Andrea Kimi Antonelli? It’s unlikely, but who knows?
And then there’s Federik Vesti, the 22-year-old Dane who has had an awe-inspiring junior career.
Over to you, dear readers; your thoughts and observations will be most appreciated.
