Although Wolff had to beg for Bottas:

Interesting
I sent Claire a Valentines Day Card this year by the way.............
Well, Claire forgot to say that they also wanted a lot money to leave free Bottas
I knew about this "Old news back in 2012!" I for one had no idea she was able to shake Merc down for$$ and pobably a great engine deal. I also have to believe this was not old news to Felipe Massa at the time! Retire, return, tireing to say the least! Where on earth was I ? Everyone else knew the old news! Beside being a champion driver , I'm glad all over that Kimi was not let go, if not for any other reason than his dynamic personality!
I wouldn't talk Bottas down right now, he might be the most wanted after the season. If he happens to match, or even better beat Hamilton, I'd see him as a best candidate to replace our "holy drinker" when the time comes.
History says otherwise.
