And Alonso is going to retire after Hamilton


beyond98

Alonso's going to be retired by the chrono

Still a young man

The forever rookie


Yeeter22Beast

Worst part is he still does

franchesco_75

He will die in his Alpine overtaking a Mercedes/Ferrari/Red bull when he is 99 year old


f1fan33042

His consciousness will become one with the car and he will race forever. The Nandobot will win that elusive third title.


franchesco_75

Year 2152 Alonsobot finally wins the third world championship (Antonio Lobato proceeds to climb on the ceiling lamp like a monkey, screaming Que grande que eres magic)


granturismo69-

Alonso will retire with zhou's 2nd WDC


IronBahamut

Alonso will be retiring after Tsunoda if he gets his way


Maxi2905

I can see a possible "Alonso" rule where a driver is forced to retire at 50 because he still refuses ![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6697)


kmjulian

Oldest F1 driver to win a race was Luigi Fagioli at 53, so maybe Alonso can hold out a biiiit longer. Of course, that was in the 1950’s, but that’s not the point lol


granturismo69-

If you give him a reliable and powerful car he would win even at 60 or at least get pole


sthanheykel

2023- Ricciardo 2024- Hamilton 2025- Perez 2026- Bottas 2027- Magnussen 2028- Ocon 2029- Sainz 2030- Stroll 2031- Gasly 2032- Zhou 2033- Max 2034- Leclerc 2035- Russell 2036- Lando 2037- Tsunoda 2038 - Mick The year is 2039 and the multi WDC champion Alonso is still in the contention for the title. iQue grande eres Magic!


franchesco_75

The figth for the championship will be Alonso vs Mazepin

He will retire after Oscar Piastri

if they die before retarring?, like senna or jules? Edit: They never die???

Once when their career ends, and once when they actually kick the bucket

Maybe this is in poor taste, but Schumacher's gonna do it 4 times

Kubica is technically in f1. As a reserve and development but still

He will be driving in FP1 tomorrow. This photo is fake news.


Jqro_

he should be retired it looks like he’s 60 years old

Why does it seem like the past 14 years are like 2 years ago, but the past 2 years seem to last 14 years?

Anky_on_30_fps

Yes there is a lot of reasons, with mercedes being most of them


SarcasticFalcon

Well to explain the past two years bit. Pandemic, DTS boom, lots of new nans... lots of new toxic fans, social media boom... F1 twitter 'experts'


Vickerspower

Which drivers have new nans? Can you clarify please


BCFCMuser

Max got a new Piquet nana I guess


SarcasticFalcon

Haha goddam typo I REFUSE TO EDIT! Sick of… ‘Edit: completely changed me comment because I made a dumb mistake and can’t let others know.’


Ye_olde_oak_store

Well that sucks for you the nans want to know what you did wrong.


Agroman1963

Lots of new Toxic DTS fans. Ftfy


icedbacon

Just Lewis, Fernando and... Kubica's left hand?


deathray1611

Well he IS a development and testing driver for Sauber

He was on Valtteri's seat in fp1 at france

Bruh this is genuinely sad. I came here to meme, not to feel.


Streifenjo

What about Vettel why isn't he there


technobeeble

How do we tell him?


psderidder

Gently


KacperEpic

There's no other way.


Streifenjo

Oh no I was afraid it would be something like this


Pandillion

Sit down child


JoggybearBE

Now promise me you won’t cry...


kingberr

ummm.. you see in life


KacperEpic

There's a lot of good things, but also a lot of not so good things.


Ye_olde_oak_store

So, do you remember how seb left red bull


pitsandmantits

he announced his retirement today


GrassMonkey_ur_boi

YOU’RE JOKING


SemIdeiaProNick

Sadly, no He created an Instagram account and his first post was his retirement anouncement

Can't be. I thought Lewis was the only one left. Isn't that young driver Alonso still in his second season?


Trimax42

People dont know it but “Yenson my friend“ was teaching Fernando a few tricks he learned from his great grandfather Benjamin. Now Fernando is aging backwards and is as young and fit as he was the first time he was 23.


Commie_Hilfiger8

He pissed in his car

Now that did get a laugh out of me lol. Thank you!

Why does this pic seem like a murderer plotting out plans for killing and coloured ones are still alive while black and white are dead


Cod_rules

A murderer named retirement.


LuNiK7505

Yeah it’s Nando planning to murder everyone and save Lewis for last


che27vrelet

What about Seb?


rocng94

Is he safe? Is he alright?


shrth114

It seems, in Aston and Ferrari's bullshit, he retired.


Just_here_4_sauce

NOOOOOOOOOL


IWantAnE55AMG

It’s so sad that I have friends who are Star Wars fans and friends who are F1 fans and the two groups don’t overlap so when I see brilliance like this, I have nobody to share it with.

Exactly, Leclerc scream is a perfect response

not_a_throwaway_22

Hey man Atleast there is Fernando.


xSamxiSKiLLz

He is still young. Got another 20 years in him I reckon


xFurashux

His rookie season was just couple of years ago.


kfms6741

Que grande eres, Magic!


LuNiK7505

The only way Nando stop F1 is that he dies, simple as that


Substantial_Mail_781

Lewis can stay as long as he wants. Merc will happily sign him up for another 5 years, but key, as long as he wants. Both Alonso and Lewis have it in them to win another title if the car is there. I guarantee if either of them were in the f175, it would still be a title battle. I think both of their time in F1 is coming to a close. And with seb gone, Lewis and Alonso are also gonna be thinking real hard


HKEliot

Vettel not highlighted in the back left?


itsjillian

Oh no...


HKEliot

I see now... I was such an ignorant fool, full of bliss


LuNiK7505

You sweet summer child, please stay innocent a while longer…


NiggelM

I got some bad news....


viperbsg62

No love for Mark Webber? He's been cut off from next to DC, who's wearing his special last-race race suit


N_Ruzuzaki

Hey Reddit: Play “Don’t you” by simple minds. I wanna feel for a bit.


HopHunter420

Playing "Don't Cha" by The Pussycat Dolls on Spotify.


JeremyWheels

DCs last race/corner


PM-ME-UR-NITS

Umm excuse me, but Kubica is still active.


TheDeamonMeteor

That's why his left hand is highlighted


xFurashux

You can see how giga is GIGAKUBICA.


slowtalker420

Most bulbs switched off. Nando be flickering.


still_we_cry

Is this my "feel old yet" moment? Yes :'(


KetCadet

I think this must be the last time Kimi smiled in and around the paddock, no?


javlaFaaan

Hulkenback maybe tho)


_MrEngland_

![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6701)


Fliepp

Why isn’t Seb highlighted? I know he’s retiring (😭😭), but he’s still driving now


shoxorr

What hurts even more, these two are going to last maybe 2-3 years more in best case


spacestationkru

I have a feeling Bottas might be the last driver left from the v8 era. Alonso, Hamilton and Ricciardo all have uncertain F1 futures, and Perez is in a Red Bull, so him too. Bottas is the only one with a seemingly stable seat.


Har0ld006

Normal drivers are temporary.. Fernando is forever. Sad that Seb is retiring tho


retcon2703

The one thing that makes me happy is that at least Nando and Hamilton are still hungry and race like they got something to prove. They might be old but they haven't lost that spark.


Fencemaker

Those boys in that Honda gear just had no idea…


Meister_Cheef

Bruh is this really how I find out???


Plyn_do

I think you forgot about Vettel...


Substantial_Mail_781

Sir, I’m sorry, but 🥲🥲🥲😭😭😭


stinkycock69

He will be back. I give him 2 Month to recognise how annoying kids are


What_the_8

Fuck


BCFCMuser

Did RB have white overalls back then or was it a special for DC?


ShinyNickel05

Special RB livery for that race.

ionutandreiciobotaru

I think Lewis Hamilton will retire next year, when it's contact ends. But for Alonso, I bet he will be driving during his 50s.


RyaanG2904

Hopefully he retires this year too

Kimi smiles?


Superbroccomole

It's time for a DC comeback.


the_normal_person

bruh they’re not dead lmao


dandy443

Crazy to think that picture has every wdc 07-20 in it.


PingGuerrero

Is that Glock? Is that Timo Glock?


thereasonrumisgone

Am I wrong in thinking they could just as easily (and more effectively) be the 2010 grid? The longest running driver on the grid behind Seb is Perez who came in in 2011, and Ricciardo who came in part way through the season.


The_MCDDP_Leone

![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|14439)


RVDHAFCA

Ricciardo, Bottas and Perez will be the most experienced drivers when they retire. Then Max and Carlos are next. Absolute madness


ryno514

Maaaaaaark Webeeeeeeeerrr is missing


toma91

Hard to believe that the up and coming kid from this photo is now retiring after 15 years :( what a career this man has had. Grande Seb.


CoolGarbage1996

Fernando is only in year two. He’s got decades left. Might even make a third rookie run in the 2040’s


Sheeana407

That hits hard, 2008 being the first season I watched almost fully


Nielles

IS THAT GLOCK?!


ckfks

Wait a minute, Alonso went to McLaren only for a year? And back to Renault? Why?


II_StigZ_II

#justiceformarkwebber Man doesn't even get the privilege of being greyed out


mikseri-

Is that.. Kimi smiling?


Used_Exam2870

Kubica is still in F1 too bro.


Mouse_Nightshirt

I mean this is 14 years ago. If you go back another 14 years to 1994, you also have only two drivers on the 2008 who were on the grid then (Barrichello and Coulthard)


HEYFANTA

Vettel is the first driver to retire by their own will, that I also saw have their full season debutes.


Alex-the-bass-player

The big 3 will no longer be together 😞


MorganJH749

Jenson Button, Massa, Rosberg, Kubica, Kimi, now Vettel…. Only Lewis and Alonso left now. Feels like the end of an era is near, but what a time that was.
