Would probably be a good fit, although I'd rather see someone that would challenge Hamilton more like Nico did.

it's the fact of if he wants to be a #2 at mercedes and stamped by hamilton a big time...

or if he wants to be positioned as the #1/priority driver @ williams and get all the respect that he deserved to have.


the thing is, unless he is a Vettel or Alonso, otherwise he won't be able to fight for the DC against hamilton even they both in the same car. thus he'll be like another rosberg...

Valteri might just surprise us all. The boy is smooth and has done an amazing job defending against faster cars the last 2 years. I wont under estimate him just yet. We do not know how he will adapt at Mercedes yet.

he is a fast driver, I do agree, I just feel bad if he goes to mercedes because I am pretty sure mercedes always put hamilton as #1, and hamilton himself is such a selfish whining kid.

unless, if he beats hamilton a big time at the first race, then things might change.

I do hope someone, driving mercedes or whatever, can beat hamilton a big time though.
