Can he retain a seat in F1? Amazingly difficult I would have thought. Will he pop up in WEC or DTM? Or is that the end of the road?

End of the road F1 wise I'd have thought. Could take his dosh to Indycar where he'd probaly do quite well.

Instructing at Silverstone. In fairness though he still wouldn't be the best driver they have on their rota.

I am guessing there are no F1 teams beating down his door?

We all know Max was never going to be the next Lewis Hamilton, but I think he did a solid, professional job in 2 seasons in F1. He was generally a couple of tenths behind the highly-rated Bianchi, made very few mistakes, almost always brought the car home, was involved in very few incidents and was generally Mr Reliable.

He would be ideally suited to top level Endurance racing.

Do you know how many a couple is?

I'm sure he'll end up somewhere, but I don't really care much where.

How much money did he pay to be in F1 and how many years so what was the total cost to be last or almost last most race days?

He'd probably be quite good at getting out of the way for LMP cars at Le Mansif he was in GTE class, come to think of it.

Agreed, nice enough lad & a competent & solid driver. Can hold his head up & be proud of his time at the pinicle of motor sports.

Achieved a lot more than some on here smile

Absolutely.

He gets far too much abuse on here.
