My deranged idea, Carlos goes to merc on a 1 or 2 year contract then signs to Audi in 2026 or 2027
i share the vision....like i don't think anyone thinks he's going to go to merc longterm. i don't think he cares about being a """seat warmer""" like it's still a seat lol and he's perfectly equipped to make the best of it
I’m reading Revolución after finishing tsor and I’m just so emotional that your core characters (Lando, Carlos, George, Alex and Alma) seem to find each other in every universe 😭
I LOVE YOU AND I LOVE THEM alma wasn't planned but i remember getting to that point in revolución and realizing i needed more hiberian voices. in a lot of ways, carlos planted the seed of change in lando's head, but alma is the one who tended the sprout into a tree. she plays a tertiary but incredibly important role in revolución, so it was only fair she got to play a bigger role in tsor <3
Isn’t it funny how people every single rumour (even though 80% of them never get confirmed or never happen at all) and think they know everything, or even better - that they know more than people who are directly involved in contract negotiations 🙄
Can’t wait to see what’s actually gonna happen, honestly, I’m gonna be optimistic no matter what team Carlos chooses, especially considering that 2026 is gonna be a gamble in terms of who gets the new regs right, just a gut feeling that it’ll work out for him anyway
He didn't play around before, but he's doing it now. RBR will renew Checo, Marko has been praising Carlos so they can get the renewal cheaper; Wolff has repeatedly said who he is interested in, and it isn't Carlos. The only team that has shown real interest in Carlos is Audi. It's that or leaving the sport. Unless he wants to become laughing stock by going to Haas or Alpine.
If Carlos goes to Sauber…first I’m going to be sad bc it means both Zhou and Val have been ousted, but also, it’ll be my personal monoshipping nightmare because it’ll be the stupid hulk/carlos ship. Kill meeeeeee I already barely survived ch*rlos
