i think the people saying the announcement was too soon are stupid

#first of all seb said he was asked to make a decision before break so they could find a replacement #second he said he made the decision that day #third alpine said they weren’t starting talks with fernando until after silverstone and probably not have any serious negotiations #until summer break #fourth they offered him a multi year deal which alpine said they would not do #fifth alpine were expecting to retain him for one more year which means he expressed interest in staying #i guess ppl who have not been following fernando this szn may not knkw all of these details #but piastri to f1 is my passion so i’ve been following it really closely #so to me it seems obvious that aston reached out to fernando w the offer after they heard seb’s decision but #weren’t expecting him to say yes right away but he did #so they saw it as a better to decision to sign him right away #in fear of alpine retaliating #idk tho maybe i’m naive #but this idea that seb was being pressured is soooo disrepectful to him and also AM who were not expecting him to retire #lmao #also i thjnk that fernando was quick to hope on board bcs they were rlly doing whatever they could to keep seb and his reasons were #not rlly related to next years car #so idk he prob thinks this looks good which. tbh it does #if anything FERNANDO was being forced to make a decision not seb
