That would be my guess as well. No need to do WEC because already won Le Mans. So really the only choice is to do Indy and see if he can get a championship there with Honda and also more chances to win the Indy 500 and continue to compete in the 24 hrs of Rolex.

Via SKY F1 --

Kubica to make F1 return in Belgium? Ocon to McLaren?
Now this is interesting.

Sky F1 expert Mark Hughes has beautifully summarised a bonkers driver market in his latest Motorsport Magazine column, and claims the falling dominoes could lead to Robert Kubica returning to F1 with Williams at next weekend's Belgian GP!

"Carlos Sainz's signing for McLaren as Fernando Alonso's replacement for 2019 puts another piece in the driver market jigsaw," he writes. "But we may be about to see some pieces being moved by the very next race at Spa, with Lance Stroll quite possibly switching to Force India and his place being taken at Williamse by Robert Kubica."

Time for an explainer.

Mark reports that Toto Wolff was concerned about Force India's financial woes and so lined up a McLaren seat for Esteban Ocon for the second half of the season with a view to a 2019 drive.

That was then quashed after Ocon agreed a deal with Renault for next season, with Wolff then approaching McLaren about putting Sainz in the car early, but that was then aborted after Daniel Ricciardo surprised everybody, Renault included, by signing for the French team.

Meanwhile, the buyer of Force India was the Lawrence Stroll-led consortium, and Lawrence now has the possibility of moving his son Lance from Williams to the much-more competitive Force India team for the second half of the season. Hence putting Ocon's current drive under threat again!

"If Lance Stroll does make the switch (with appropriate compensation to Williams), then Robert Kubica is in line to stand in at Williams - and we'd finally get to see that little fairy tale come true," Hughes continues.

"All of which still leaves Ocon without a confirmed 2019 drive. May we yet see him in a McLaren, as Wolff originally tried to make happen for Hungary?"

Speculation wrote up by journalist.....

Williams' days are numbered. Financier and Martini leaving them. It'll be a rough road ahead. Someone will need bail them out.

aren't they also on stock exchange market too?

they also have some other business too

Happy Spa race day! One of the best tracks and no rain for today! Qualy was wild lets hope the race is equally fun to watch!

LOL, no such luck. Here we go again with one team with clearly a faster car than the rest. Oh well such is F1 racing...

Ferrari now have a complete package. Mercedes are now lost to respond. They stay too long with the long wheel base. Motor wise Ferrari have .2 on them easily it seems.

There is no reason for Ferrari to lose races other than by their own doing. They have the fastest car and two top three drivers. It should be game set and match!

Seb...not a good day a the Milan Pre F1 race festival for this weekend's Italian GP -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_c...&v=1O8-VPiDo0s

Now that is funny!:wtf2:

Looks like whoever laid out that course doesn't realize what a crappy turning radius an F1 car has. At least they are putting on a show in Milan. I stayed in Milan a few year ago when I went to the Grand Prix and you would never know a race was even going on. No posters, no souvenirs, nothing. Only time you saw any fans was on the train to Monza.

Ok, glad to see Kimi get the POLE!!!! Would like to see him win one more before he hangs it up. Just know that after the first turn and team orders come into play, he will have to let Vette go by. Anyway hoping for a good race. :tup:
