Esteban Ocon and Alpine’s decision to part ways at the end of the year means Ocon is on the look-out for a new office and the French manufacturer will feature a revised line-up in 2025. So, what does this all mean?
With both Bearman and Kimi more or less confirmed for F1 next year according to rumours the amount of seats available is shrinking fast, but I also think we’ll see lots of departures. Presumably Sergeant is out, as is one or both of Zhou and Bottas. I would be very surprised if Ricciardo manages to cling to a seat, and I could see Magnussen going too, possibly.
Ocon is alright in terms of speed, but his teammate track record is going to be against him and he also doesn’t bring any sponsors as far as I know. I wouldn’t be shocked if he ends up without a seat, but I can also definitely see him going to Haas or maybe Williams.

Wait, Kimi is back?!? What?
Edit: Ok, we all know there is only one Kimi, but there is apparently a second one now: Kimi Antonelli. Can we just call him Kimi B?
If only he was, I miss him. Even though he was kinda checked out going back as far as almost what, 2009?
Would be funny since his last name starts with A.
His first name is Andrea so we could just call him that lol
