The biggest stars of the current Formula 1 they are on the safe side in terms of cockpit occupancy in the 2020 season. Lewis Hamilton will continue to sit in the silver arrow next year, Sebastian Vettel stays with Ferrari, Max Verstappen however, despite many rumors, at Red Bull Racing.

MERCEDES
Lewis Hamilton has a valid contract until the end of 2020. But what about Valtteri Bottas? Team boss Toto wolff he has already explained that he will be racing Bottas or the youngsters in addition to Hamilton Esteban Ocon. Mercedes has to decide what makes more sense; to bet on continuity and good chemistry, that is, on Bottas, or for a young racer, that is, Ocon. If the Frenchman does not get a seat at Mercedes, will most likely land in the team’s second race car Renault, but that would mean they won’t be able to count on Ocon for Mercedes for at least two years.
FERRARI
Sebastian Vettel he’s had to laugh a lot lately because of rumors claiming he’ll be after the end of the season 2019 threw the rifle into the corn and left Formula 1, notwithstanding the fact that it has a valid contract until the end of the year 2020. His boss Mattia Binotto to the cooks of rumors he replies that Sebastian still has not given up on the dream of a title with Ferrari. Charles Leclerc is the future of Ferrari and therefore is young Monachan long term tied to the team from Maranella.
RED BULL RACING - HONDA
Max Verstappen remains in the bull stable. Helmut Marko, sports boss Red Bull Racing, but wants to see how he will perform next to the Dutchman in the second half of this season Alexander albon. If he will show better performances than his predecessor Pierre Gasly, then he will also be sitting in the first team car in the 2020 season.
mclaren
The British traditional team is already ahead of the home race in Silverstone confirmation that they will Carlos Sainz in Lando Norris also in the 2020 season raced for the team from Woking.
RENAULT
Daniel Ricciardo is with the team Renault signed a contract until the end of 2020. The contract of his teammate Nice Hülkenberg however, it expires at the end of this year. Cyril Abiteboul, the head of the Renault team, despite occasional criticism, finds words of praise for the German, but flirts with Esteban Ocon, which would have a significantly higher PR value in the home country of the team.
ALFA ROMEO RACING
Kimi Räikkönen he will still be racing in Formula 40 as a 1-year-old, as the Finn is with the team Alfa Romeo Racing signed a two-year contract in the summer of 2018. In the last races he is his teammate Antonio Giovinazzi otherwise he has shown better performances, which is also absolutely necessary for him if he wants to keep his seat next year. Good for Giovinazzi is the fact that Ferrari will be a young racer Mick Schumacher also in the 2020 season raced in Formula 2, his entry into Formula 1 however, it is planned for 2021.
HAAS F1
Kevin Magnussen has a valid contract with the American team until the end of 2020. The Dane is a stronger racer of the team. A chair Romain Grosjean however, it was already shaking in 2018, but because it is lagging behind its counterpart this year as well, the shaking is only even stronger. A question posed to the team owner To Gene Haas and the team boss Günther Steiner reads: Is it time for a new racer on the team or are stability and continuity more important? South Tyrol has repeatedly stressed how much he values quality Nice Hülkenberg. And if the team will Renault really joined Esteban Ocon, then it will be popular Hulk available.
RACING POINTS
Sergio Perez is for the former team Force India guarantee for points. Although his teammate Lance stroll he rarely finds his way to the Mexican, but we can safely say that his seat is also paved for the 2020 season. Because his father Lawrence stroll is a team co-owner.
TORO ROSSO
Daniil Kvyat in Alexander albon they showed good performances by the middle of the season. Kvyat he even stood on the winners' stage in Hockenheim, Albon however, he earned promotion to the first team Red Bull Racing. Pierre Gasly, who returned to Toro Rosso, will have to prove itself by the end of the year, otherwise this could represent the end of his journey to Formulas 1. Especially given the fact that the motor partner of the red bulls Honda strongly advocates bringing their junior to Formula 1 Nobuharo Matsushito.
WILLIAMS
Until Mercedes for the young Gerogea Russell will not have a vacant seat in the silver arrow camp, the young Briton will remain in the team from the town Whole grained. Last year's champion Formula 2 has z Williams signed a contract until the end of 2021. The seat of his teammate Roberta Kubica however, it is in danger for two reasons: Poljak not a level race Russella, from Formula 2 however, he wants to get into the royal motorsport class Nicholas latifi.
