It's difficult because on one hand I would love to see Porsche give Merc a spanking in yet another racing series, but not he other hand RB are the bad guys and I can't see myself cheering for them ever.

As for @Cols circuit list:
Estoril (Portugal) Don't remember
Magny Cours (France) Only really remember from late-90s N64 games but I think it would be better than PR
Kyalami (South Africa) Don't know it but it's probably back next year?
Buenos Aires (Argentina) Meh
Sepang (Malaysia) Great
Istanbul (Turkey) Fantastic largely for Turn 8
Indianapolis (USA) Meh
Fuji (Japan) I recall this was meh compared to Suzuka but it was on the calendar when I had a lull in F1 watching so not sure
Valencia (Spain) Oh please god no not again
Jerez (Spain) I always thought this was in Portugal? I only remember it as the scene of the Schu/Ville crash in 97
Yeongam (South Korea) Barely remember it
Buddh (India) Barely remember it but I think it was ok
Adelaide (Australia) Don't remember it
I'll miss him and look forward to seeing what he does next. I wonder who AM will get in to partner Stroll.

And seems like a really lovely chap to boot. I'd love to meet him and have a chat one day.
This is the closest I ever got. Goodwood in 2012?
For his replacement - Stroll Sr's terribly keen on getting Alonso, but I doubt the feeling is reciprocated. They might have a pop at Ricciardo - his stock's low at the minute, but he's a proven race winner, good with the press and might see Aston Martin as an opportunity to rebuild his reputation. Mick Schumacher could be a possibility if he can progress a bit and deliver consistent performances - doesn't seem to be standing out as an exceptional talent, but the name would keep the sponsors happy. Then there's the junior drivers waiting hungrily in the wings - Piastri, De Vries, Sargeant, Pourchaire.
Sad to see Vettel leaving, but it's been on the cards for a time. I wish him well in whatever he does next.
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes...
It still might, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Nico Hulkenburg's name in the mix, or the likes of Gasly/Albon.
I can't see how that won't cause friction tbh, but we'll see!
It's finally time.
Hakkinen to come back from his sabbatical!
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd

For the other half of F1's answer to Beavis and Butthead - by the time Porsche really comes in, Marko will be past 80 and will be quietly and diplomatically nudged off in the direction of the nursing home.
The Chilli Race Result Prediction - unchanged from last time - a Ferrari 1 - 2. (Let’s face it, I have to be right at some point.)
