Last time Mercedes lost a driver after the end of the season they moved Bottas up from Williams. If Lewis decides to leave, maybe they could move Alex Albon up to replace him?

Yeah right, put a red bull contracted driver in a Mercedes, dream on

To my mind there is no way Lewis will walk. He has an 8th WDC to win to cement the GOAT (so to speak). And I think he wants it soooooo bad. I also suspect that part of Merc dropping the Appeal were assurances that fairness will be applied. Not to mention Merc have I suspect put a shedload of effort into the new cars and may well be either dominant or certainly in the front...
