Valtteri Bottas rubbishes idea of being replaced midseason by Mercedes

Valtteri Bottas insists he will not be replaced by George Russell this season - but admitted he has 'no idea' and 'does not care' if Mercedes retain him for 2022. The Finn, whose contract with the Silver Arrows expires at the end of the season, heads into this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix 37 points adrift of team-mate Lewis Hamilton after just three rounds.
