Albert Fabrega came up with some interesting news on Sunday night. The reliable Formula 1 journalist, in the service of the Spanish broadcasting company DAZN among others, knows after the Grand Prix at the circuit of Imola that an early driver switch between two teams is coming up.

The Spanish insider says in a video: "The market is already moving. Something is happening, but I can't say, because I wasn't allowed to say anything [from whom he got the news]. I am not surprised by those who leave, but I am surprised by those who arrive. Well, it is a change of drivers between teams'."
