Man I dunno how to tell you this but...Russell (or anyone else for that matter) is getting a boot if Max becomes available. Now, I suspect Mercedes wants to see 2026 showdown between Russell and Antonelli, if Russell beats him in similar fashion and Max is available I expect Russell/Max pairing in Mercedes. If Antonelli so much as comes close to Russell, I think Russell is going to have to search for a seat if Max becomes available (he will be more expensive, harsher as a team player to Max and older then Antonelli)
RUS+LEC at Newey's AMR in 2027 would be quite a nice combo I think. Both very fast qualifiers and I can see them getting along quite well
