Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, Mercedes
There was considerable speculation about Hamilton leaving Mercedes at the end of 2021, however fleeting and hypothetical it may have been.
It was unclear what the seven-time world champion would have done instead, though as usual, Red Bull and Ferrari were mentioned in the same breath as connections to MotoGP and a full-time career in fashion.
Therefore, it came as little surprise when he renewed his two-year contract with the team in July. Similarly, it came as little surprise when Mercedes revealed that Valtteri Bottas, the Finn who was initially signed as a last-minute replacement for shockingly retiring Nico Rosberg in 2017, would not be his teammate for 2022.
It therefore came as no surprise when George Russell, who was already under contract to Mercedes and had more than proven himself capable while driving a backmarking Williams, was elevated to Hamilton’s teammate the day after Bottas switched to Alfa Romeo.
