Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Mercedes, Pastor Maldonado and More

Mercedes dominated Formula One for a second successive season in 2015, winning all but three races, but the Silver Arrows appeared to be a team of two halves as the campaign drew to a close.

While Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg had little to play for in the closing weeks of the season, due to the former securing his third world title with three races to spare, the relationship between the pair seemed to be at its lowest for some time.

Their boss, Toto Wolff, responded by suggesting Mercedes would be prepared to change their winning formula and dump at least one of their drivers if they failed to play nicely and has reiterated his belief that no individual is bigger than the team.

Pastor Maldonado, meanwhile, is getting sick and tired of being ridiculed for his erratic and unpredictable driving style, claiming he is the target of media, supporters and even race officials.

Despite driving an inferior car to Maldonado, Felipe Nasr managed to finish on equal points with the Venezuelan in the 2015 championship after a distinctly impressive rookie season saw him claim two top-six finishes.

The vices of his car prevented the Brazilian from securing those results on a more regular basis, but Nasr has revealed Sauber are planning to make a series of alterations to their chassis in an effort to leap up the grid.

As Nasr pins his hopes on big changes at Sauber, Will Stevens will be hoping everything stays the same in 2016 as he fights to keep his place at Manor.

The British driver remains confident of remaining with the perennial backmarkers for next season, but GP2 race-winner Rio Haryanto is increasingly likely to claim one of the two Manor seats after earning the support of the Indonesian government.

Closing this week's roundup is Pirelli's Paul Hembery, who is pushing for a significant overhaul of the F1 calendar.
