Before the big summer break, Sebastian Vettel announced that he will retire from Formula 1 after the end of the season – and it will be difficult for Aston Martin management to find a suitable replacement for the German.
Vettel was called in to cover the weaknesses of team owner Lance Stroll’s son. His father Lawrence has big plans and no problems with funding, but there aren’t that many free world champions with their knowledge and experience in the market.
But there is one more. If Fernando Alonso agrees to sign the contract and part ways with Alpine, it will clearly suit Stroll Sr. Fernando has all the qualities to make the car fast over time. Yes, and in Alpine this will solve the staffing problem – they will be able to take Oscar Piastri as a partner for Esteban Okon. We think this is the best option.
Rumor has it that Aston Martin may invite Nico Hulkenberg or Daniel Ricciardo. The German knows the team well – and completely free. But can Niko, who has not won a single race in nearly two hundred Grand Prix, lead the team to the victories Lawrence Stroll dreams of.
Options with an invitation for a fast but young rider will only be considered if an experienced pilot cannot be found, but cannot be ruled out.
