I heard Mercedes is now offering $40m to Ferrari so they won't give Leclerc to them for free.

You speak as if Leclerc is some crash savant. As if he's actually helping the team with his crashes.

You're absolutely fcking gddamn right.

Antonelli (after winning a couple of titles with mercedes): everyone is a ferrari, even if they say they aren’t. They are ferrari fans.

I heard the rumor was Lewis offered Mercedes $90 million to take him back.

u/honeycomb0303 Sep 12 '26

obviously wrong. mercedes wants 90m, first round draft pick this year and the year after.

The hate towards leclerc is crazy. One of the best drivers in F1, but people only watch dts

u/yg-gy Sep 13 '26

I think Kimi still doesn't have a contract with Merc for 2027.

u/smartassistant666 Sep 13 '26

They said thanks the money and keep the exchange

90 mill and a crash test dummy

I don't think Mercedes would accept Charles.

u/IDKBear25 Sep 15 '26

Lol - bollocks.

u/AubTiger Sep 17 '26

Kimi isn't going anywhere for now. I don't believe any of this, but if they did offer anyone, it would be Lou, who would be thrilled go get back to his old seat. Maybe he could even beat George in the current spec cars.

u/PosMatic Sep 17 '26

It doesn't even make sense to me honestly.... Toto Scouted Kimi personally. Toto was following Kim's career long before the DTS episode. Why would they give up on him for just money...? Isn't Toto known for being the most loyal-to-driver team principal in F1?

u/getzisch Sep 18 '26

There was a Turkish meme for transfers like that : "Holosko + money compensation"

referring former player Filip Holosko for Beşiktaş and the club desperately trying to trade him. Didn't work out lol.

u/Broodje_met_beleg Sep 18 '26

Antonelli to Ferarri, Max to Merc, man, that would be sick!

u/1000_stars Sep 12 '26

Yes thats why they signed a deal extension with Leclerc last month.

u/Aggravating-Sun-2322 Sep 12 '26

CRAP. You think Merc is that desperate for money. Such that they need 90 million so badly that they will sell Kimi itself. go sell this crap story somewhere else

u/Aggravating-Sun-2322 Sep 12 '26

I would belive lewis went back and begged Mercedes to take me back in and sorry for everything, but not this
