@@luizlokos1 Actually, McLaren fell apart the season before Perez joined. That's why Lewis went to Mercedes. By the time Perez arrived at McLaren, everything was already destroyed inside that team. McLaren let go of Checo because of his attitude, not his performance. Maybe Perez has been lucky, but if you think that if he waited for 1 more year in Sauber, he was bound to replace Massa at Ferrari and partner with Alonso for 2014 instead of Kimi who had an abysmal season. Actually, he would have been offered the Ferrari seat in 2013 but Massa decided to stay. We will never know what would have happened with Checo and Alonso in the red cars during those years, but I like to think it would have been amazing.

Would Hamilton maybe have run away with the title in that case?

I'd include Johnny Herbert. In 1994, increasingly disillusioned by the dismal performance of his Mugen Honda powered Lotus, coupled with the team itself struggling for survival, he shocked the F1 Community by going from Lotus in Portugal (with whom he had raced mostly full time since 1990 and had a contract to see out the rest of the season), to driving for Ligier at Jerez, taking the place of Eric Bernard who moved the opposite way to Lotus. What made this even more remarkable, Herbert only spent one race weekend with Ligier before being drafted into the Benetton team to try and bolster their Constructors Championship hopes. So in less than a month, Johnny Herbert went from a team on the verge of disappearing from the grid, to one that was on the verge of winning the world championship with Michael Schumacher

Not just his decisions. F1 drivers are a key part of how a car is developed. Their feedback is essential and they effectively end up with a car moulded to them. If they put a part on Max’s Red Bull and he’s quicker - they move in that direction with development. Alonso is an amazing driver, but has caused friction in a lot of the teams he’s been in. Drivers now are realising the value of loyalty and having a car built around their driving style. Drivers like Max, Lando, Charles and possibly George are looking to stay with their teams indefinitely, through good times and bad.

@@britishrose9417 Yeah Alonso has had a tendency to burn bridges where he went. Seems to have mellowed out a fair bit since his return last year. I think he might be realising its good to build the team around him rather fuel negativity.

Perez contract was up. He had a contract till the end of 2020 and an extension that’s separate for 2021, they simply voided the extension and never initiated it as it was before 2020 the year was over

Somewhat surprised that Mansell returning to f1 with McLaren was not part of this. Then again I think that particular ship had sailed in its own video. *shrugs*

No mention of Michael Schumacher's contract with Jordan in 1991 that supposedly cover for 92,93 and 94? Also the 40k payment to Jordan for the seat was actually paid for by Peter Sauber after Willi Weber (Schumi's manager) turned to Mercedes to pay for it and Mercedes in turn turned to Sauber as Schumi is Sauber's contracted driver.

IIRC the contract was more verbal than anything, nothing was ever fully signed so there was no contract to break.
