Will Fernando Alonso give us a chance to miss him? What year could Alonso be back in Formula 1 – 2020, 2021 or 2022? Also, more than what year, it will also be a question of with which team. We certainly don’t think it would be Ferrari, Mercedes or Red Bull.
In this week’s episode of the [Inside Line F1 Podcast](http://bit.ly/ilf1ponkf1b), Mithila and Kunal wonder if Alonso’s exit would see a mass exodus of fans from Formula 1 – that’s exactly what happened when Michael Schumacher quit. History and statistics tell us why Stoffel Vandoorne can be a Formula E Champion. We offer Racing Point creative ways to announce their signing of Lance Stroll. Did Ferrari back the wrong driver in 2018? Forget a fast car, Renault better have a witty social media team for Daniel Ricciardo. And finally, was Lewis Hamilton’s ‘shirtey’ moment a lame attempt to give us something more than Ricciardo’s ‘shoey’? Tune in!
