The Formula 1-silly season has been working overtime for the last few days: Sergio Perez leaves Racing Point where Sebastian Vettel takes his place. But it doesn't stop there, according to sports newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport from Italy more transfers are arriving.

Ferrari-juniors

According to the Italian sports newspaper the exit of Perez at Racing Point does not mean that he has to leave F1 yet. Indeed, he could make the logical switch to Alfa Romeo, where Perez started his Formula 1 career when it was still called Sauber. His new teammate will be Mick Schumacher who, with the support of Ferrari, will be able to make the transition from Formula 2 to Formula 1.

Haas F1 drivers will also have to fight for their seats in Formula 1. Besides Schumacher, Robert Shwartzmann is also eager to make his F1 debut and Ferrari seems to want to see that happen soon. The newspaper states that both Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen can say goodbye to there seat in F1, because next to the talented Russian, Nico Hülkenberg has to take their place in front of the American team.

Japanese driver in F1?

Finally, La Gazzetta dello Sport states that Daniil Kvyat also has to clear the field. Yuki Tsunoda would take over his seat in the AlphaTauri as Red Bull Racing and Honda Protegé. With this, Honda's wish is fulfilled and after years of waiting there is again a Japanese driver on the F1-grid.
