Announcement seems imminent, personnel at the Merc factory already informed according to rumors..
 
Since Verstappen, Leclerc, Piastri and Norris have a long term deal, viable options are Albon, Sainz, Ocon and Schumacher. but who knows, maybe they'll try to get Bottas back..
 
So I know a guy who's pretty high up in Motorsports......These were his comments to a small group of us:

"How did we lose Sir Lewis?Lewis makes $65M annually which includes endorsements. ( net worth $285M)
Max V’s salary is $70M

I always said be careful of jokes and flirting in a business setting because there are some truths to them.
Also always take your shot.

2 years go , Ferrari asked Lewis what would it take for him to leave Mercedes. Lewis said $100M. They all laugh it off.
John Elkann ( Ferrari Chairman) got what he wanted. A number from Lewis, which most thought was crazy.

This year, when Lewis is in his last year with Mercedes, Ferrari comes back with that exact number in an offer PLUS millions donated to Lewis’ charity efforts.
It’s a 2 year, $200M deal that will make Lewis the highest paid F1 driver ever and it will almost double his net worth.
Shoot your shot people!"
