[QUOTE="prabs, post: 2108178, member: 5349"] Sacking? Bench him for a few races or testing? I don't think Mercedes will do any of those especially with the new regulations. 2017 cars are an unknown quantity at the moment and who knows who will be how fast in this era. They will need all the feedback they can get. At most I think they will have a chat and fine him which really is peanuts for Lewis but it will keep Lewis happy and the PR happy that Mercedes did take action. I doubt with Lewis's popularity he will be as affected by this as Nico was post Spa 2014 where he really was somewhat shunned by the media and booed by people. Also good drivers are taken for 2017. Anyone they can think of getting by a buy out from mid field teams will be a step down and I doubt anyone from Ferrari or Red Bull will be ready to switch. [/QUOTE]
