Bottas: no pre-agreement with Ferrari

No pre-agreement between Valtteri Bottas , Ferrari to hire the Finnish driver, current leader of the Williams, instead of Kimi Raikkonen in 2016. According to the most recent rumors indeed, Maurice Arrivabene he would have already made contact and "armoured" his compatriot Whom for the next season at the wheel of the Red or, alternatively, temporarily parked at the Haas – the American team that will make its debut in 2016 World and that it will be motorised Ferrari.

Oskar Saari, commentator for Finnish TV mtv3, however, categorically denied the existence of such an agreement, claiming to have "a very reliable source on the matter".
" Williams has an option on Bottas for next season and basically he would be prohibited from having any kind of pre-agreement with another team,” he explained Saari.

“Of course people are always looking for what's behind it, but I understand that Bottas deny any other commitment until the Williams he will not have decided whether or not to use his option", continued the journalist, although not completely excluding the possibility of a transfer Bottas – which is run by the boss of Mercedes Toto Wolff - to Ferrari in the future.

" Ferrari has an option on Whom and, in case you don't want to confirm it, certainly the second best option would be Valtteri“, he continued Saari. “But at the moment, as far as I know, there is really no type of agreement already signed.”
