Surprising name shows interest in Hamilton's Mercedes seat: Big comeback!

In the aftermath of the shocking news of Lewis Hamilton's switch to Ferrari, many names have already been linked to the Mercedes seat that becomes vacant in 2025. One surprising name has come forward (with a joke) for the Formula 1 seat: David Coulthard.

In the past, Coulthard has also jokingly applied for a seat at the then AlphaTauri (now Visa Cash App RB F1 Team), Red Bull Racing's sister team. So now he reports to Toto Wolff's team: "Heard you might be looking for an experienced driver next year," he addresses the team directly in a post on Instagram.
