Would be nice to see George Russell take the seat! After all he is a Mercedes junior....

Can you imagine the pressure of getting Lewis’s car on one week notice? I suspect prime directive is just don:t wad it up.

Stoffel Vandoorne would be the safest pair of hands.

Pressure? maybe even higher for Bottas, even for Lewis. Just imagine that the stand-in, whoever is, smashes Valteri and wins easily. What would this mean?? :wink: :twisted:
Not that I think it'll happen, but just imagine.

Best suggestions I've seen: Stoffel gets the call to fill in... at Williams. Because Russell gets Lewis' seat. :)

Hulk, since he's already driven the 2019 Merc in a couple of races this year, and it'd be cool for him to finally have a real shot at a podium. :D

But the best was the (admittedly dark) hope that a whole bunch of drivers had contracted the virus, leading to shake-ups at all the teams and a 'reserve driver Grand Prix'. :twisted: :lol:

I second this but it is probably too complicated. Stiffer is most likely the guy and deservedly so.
