Is there a stir in the store in 2026 silly weather of F1?

Lewis Hamiltonproceed from Mercedes To Ferrari If such transfer occurs every year, it will not be described as “shocking” or “historical”, and F1 is unlikely to see anything like this soon. Not only the most successful driver in history joined the most prestigious team in the championship, but the official announcement also closed one of the most comprehensive sports of music chairs in the driver market.

Things will not be very similar in 2025, along with several prominent players – including Hamilton – in safe places where they expect to stay for the next two sessions, both cover up the upcoming campaign, which in Melbourne in a month’s time Starts, and the first year under the revised rules in 2026.

All indications are that this time is going to be a waiting game. But around 2027 there is still a lot of conspiracy.

Waiting for the next move of verstappen

For a few weeks last year, it seemed that F1 was about to experience another earthquake immediately after he was caused by Ferrari and Hamilton. With praise of the brightness of Toto Wolf Max Verustapane And the internal civil war of Red Bull started with allegations against boss Christian Horner, many people in Padock believed that Dutchmans would move to Mercedes in early 2025, and Wolf and Volstapane’s camp The middle well -recorded meetings strengthened only that hypothesis. ,

It was only in late summer that the boss of Mercedes finally gave up the hope of signing the Vastapane, and now it seems that it can never be really. However, it is worth noting George Russell And Andrea Kimi Antoneley Only 2025 has been confirmed by the team, suggesting that Wolf may keep the door open for Dutchman.

There is another door that is opening to Vastapane in Aston Martin (if anyone is closed for it). The report of the “Billion-Dollar offering” may be wrong-and the team has clearly denied itself-but this does not mean that the discussion is not at some level, even if it is a private conversation. Aston’s talk as a possible future destination for Vestapen has not yet begun; It obtained traction long ago, most specially after the announcement of the arrival of the Adrian Navy in the team.

Really, however, a step for 2026 is still not extremely likely because Vastapain is not in gambling position – not yet yet. Without seeing this, it is not very understandable for such a step that a newly -led team with Honda can get in 2026.

All other top teams are closed for the future future. It is difficult to imagine Hamilton and Charles Lakeler The team-matches are not left for the next two sessions, and the same goes to the same Lando Noris And Oscar piastryNeither the teams nor the drivers have any real reason to change.

Meanwhile, Mercedes has enough confidence in Antoneley’s abilities, if he struggles in his crook year, it is not to panic to panic. Russell is already proving that he can win the race when the car is quite early, his young Italian team partner does not necessarily distribute it immediately.

What about the second red bull seat?

The only seat that can be possible at any time can be available at any time is the second red bull seat.

Liam Lawson There is a real challenge ahead of him. It will not be easy for anyone with only 11 F1, sharing a garage with Vastapane. But if Lawson’s immediate work is to do better than the bus Sergio Perez Most have been done for 2024, it is definitely obtainable. The big question is whether the new zosender can actually live up to the expectations of becoming a top driver.

Red Bull Boss has changed the mid-season driver in the past: Daniel Kewat And Pierre Galli Fenza was sent back to Midway through 2016 and 2019 seasons respectively. But along with demonstrating the lack of patience from Horner and Helmut Marco, it is also a reminder that they have experience of behaving with drivers who are not quite ready for a top team. This can work in favor of Lawson, as they can be given more time – especially not very keen to promote Marco and Horner. Yuki Sunoda To the main team.

But one thing is sure: It is almost impossible to predict what will happen if a significant upgradation on Lawson Perze is not proved.

Red bull may be a possible new star Arvid lindbladWhich is due to spending a year in Formula 2, which can expand Lawson’s red bull tenure. If F1 earns promotion with Anglo-Surde Racing bullsThis can encourage Horner and Marco to take a wait-and-sightedness, regardless of the results of Lawson.

A potential wild landscape (although F1 does not feel too wild for the red bull) may see Lindblad promoted in the F1 mid-season if he proves himself in F2. In that case, he can also be a contender for one red Bull Seat in 2026.

Goldsmith

The condition of the goldsmith can be described as the best uncomfortable. Once again ignored by Red Bull, he is about to start his fifth season with another team of the company and all indications point it to its final.

It would be wrong to fulfill the possibility of Sunoda that eventually a seat will have to be earned in the main team, but for this, Lawson may have to produce an almost unprecedented level of underperformance. The entire F1 term of Tsunoda with Red Bull shows that he will be considered as his full last solution. And with ending its partnership with the company Honda, a possible publicity makes even less understanding.

At this point, there is almost nothing to influence Sunoda further. Beating Isac Hadzar The young French will not be much high than damaging the possibilities of the French – it will definitely not improve Sunoda.

Their long -term F1 future remains uncertain. His name was associated with both Save And Haas has last summer before his red bull contract extension, but those options have now disappeared. Estaban Okon And Oliver bearman For the next few years, you will create a Haas line-up, while Nico Hulkenburg And Gabriel Bortoleo Audi’s driver for 2026 is being deployed as a pairing.

With Honda Aston Martin becoming an engine partner, there may be an option for a step Sunoda, but no race seat is available at this time. Hence their most potential option is to terminate Aston for 2026 with the hope of future promotion.

Cadilac will have two new seats, but even though Sunaida is considered one of the candidates, it is unlikely to be at the top of the small list. Currently included in that list Colon horta, Vultiry botas And Perez, although surprise is always possible.

Can more earthquakes be possible?

For now, the driver looks in the market waiting mode. Many tricks conducted last year were already directed to 2026, and only when the teams and drivers begin to have more clarity about the pecking order in the cycle of new rules, this music chairs really starts really. will be.

One of the biggest uncertainties in the coming months Jack dohanCan Australian handle pressure Franco ColapintoAttendance on Alpine Not only will it determine who starts 2026 with the ENSTONE team, but also completes 2025 in that seat.

For now, the number of changes between 2025 and 2026 is likely to be minimal – but the driver market is quietly preparing for more frenzy in one year time.
