Wouldn't mind Schumi going to Ferarri for 1 last season

We all know it won't happen though

No, it won't

Hopefully Perez gets Massa's seat

No, it means Schumacher is retiring. Di Resta/Raikkonen is more probable at McLaren, I'm sure Rosberg has a contract next year for Mercedes. I hope it doesn't happen, mostly because I'm a McLaren/Hamilton fan - but if he does go, I'll be sticking to just McLaren

Rosberg already has his contract with Mercedes, as does Raikkonen with Lotus Who would be going to McLaren...?

Raikkonen has a performance clause in his contract, so if the Lotus suddenly does crap from now on, he isn't with them next season, but if he carries on, teams will have to pay Lotus to get Raikkonen out.

Di Resta is rumoured to go to Mercedes, so maybe McLaren will pick him if Hamilton goes to Mercedes, since there won't be any seats left. I'd prefer Hamilton to stay though.

I think Hamilton and McLaren go well together. But is he really not liking the team since all the screw-ups?

We don't know anything for sure, but I get the impression that Hamilton and McLaren are probably at the low point of their time together at the moment with the pit stops and Hamilton's tweets.

Well i for one will also still support McLaren if hamilton does leave - its like a football team, you wouldnt swap because one of the players went.

Lets just see what happens ... but hopefully Lewis will stay with McLaren!

I always saw it as the drivers being the ones to support e.g. I support Raikonnen, Schumacher and Vettel. Not Redbull, Lotus or Mercedes.

That's just me though, same with Michael Owen, I have to watch him play at Stoke ffs albeit supporting Liverpool, just because he's my fav footballer etc

Always the team, which has been quite unfortunate in my case. Supported Raikkonen at McLaren, and when he left I supported Hamilton for Raikkonen to steal the championship from Hamilton by a point

I mean, Hamilton will still be my favourite driver, but in terms of my merchandise I buy for example, it will always be McLaren.

At first I just supported the driver; Vettel. But then after a while the team grows on you and then even the other driver. So, I support Vettel, Webber and Red Bull.

However, I think if Webber were to leave I'd still support the team, because I support the team more than I do the driver. But if Vettel left I'd be very split. I love my team, but Vettel has my support the most.

Seb will just have to stay at Red Bull
