The thing is that usually the Germans are rather subtle and humble for wins and whatnot, so it's only Mercedes Italia that's doing such an ass of a move. It's the first time Mercedes has one the constructor's championship, so that only took 150 or so years.

Yes, that's what everyone is waiting for.

These are the two options thrown around:

1. McLaren 2015.
2. Sabbatical for 1 year until a seat opens at Mercedes IF Lewis joins McLaren for 2016.

Likely it will be a mix where he joins Mclaren in a multi-year contract with a performance clause that give him the option to leave after 2015 should the team not be one of the top 3 in the constructors championship.

If I were Mclaren I would play hardball and just deny a performance clause. If they have a fast car they'll get a top driver easy enough and if they have a slow car, well then the money is better spent addressing that then Alonso's contract. Lewis would be crazy to commit to McLaren now so Alonso would make a big gamble on a sabbatical and Benz seat and Mclaren know it

FA sign with Mclaren alaready so we can get on with it
