Best team? It says McLaren, not Merc. Can't see McLaren wanting a piece of that poison chalice unless he brings a shitload of sponsor money.
They put up with Alonso's ****. Also isn't the rumour [or one of them] that Hamilton and Wolff might be heading to Ferrari in '21.
Sounds like EJ's crazy declaration that Mercedes are intending to leave the sport, return to Mclaren Mercedes as the 'works' team and Lewis and Toto are going to stage a takeover of Ferrari is now only slightly mad. Seb at Mclaren however, no chance, he's going from Ferrari to the beach and/or hobby DTM/GT3 racing.

Pretty much. Useless trivia, the Audi R18-Etron, Porsche 919 and Toyota TS030 all used Williams developed hybrid and recovery systems.
...and all of the gen 1 Forumla E cars... and they supply parts to some of the current F1 grid... With a push towards spec parts in 2021, you'd think they'd want to keep hold of their engineering arm.
Just my cynicism rearing it's ugly head as senior civil servants (for doing their well paid job) the Tory faithful and donors get Sird, Damed, MBEd or whatever. Now I realise there are people recognised who genuinely deserve it but, far to many honours are given because of cronyism, devaluing the whole honours system.
