So if Seb hadn’t retired, Alonso stayed at alpine and McLaren have already signed a pre-agreement with Oscar (presumably before they knew the above), this likely would have left Daniel without a seat for 2023? Ouch.

I'm still not sure he will have. Would Alpine want him there? He left them before and his form hasn't been great the past 2 seasons 🤷🏻‍♀️. Ssdly there's younger blood coming through now and would he want to be Ocons no 2 driver anyway.

I still believe the “pre-agreement with another team” that Oscar had was with Williams and not with McLaren, despite what Adam Cooper supposedly confirms.

If it was with McLaren though, who’s to say it wasn’t for a development driver program like the Indy kids? Which I feel like would’ve been enticing to Oscar’s camp, seeing Daniel’s trend in McLaren vs Alonso’s in Alpine. Might’ve thought he would be closer to an F1 seat with McLaren because ZB’s been so highly and openly critical of Daniel vs Alpine who have been nothing but praise for Alonso.

If Oscar goes to Mclaren Lando is going to have to step into the mentor role despite being less than 1.5 years older than Oscar.
Atleast it gives him practice for when Ugo makes his way into the team if rb or merc havent stolen him by then 😅

Otmar pretty much confirmed the pre-agreement was with McLaren 😬😅

See this is also why I’m not sure it’s happening. Lando’s nowhere near ready to be a mentor, he’s been in the sport for four years, he needs to be mentored.
Ah but this is F1 when did anything ever make sense 😂
