This is information from the site GP One. Lewis Hamilton will be at the Grand Prix of Qatar and he is expected to be a very informed spectator in the paddock this Saturday, qualifying day at Losail. There he will notably find a Doctor busy recovering from a disastrous Friday evening. But there will also be a historic exchange at the end of the season in motor sports...

It appears in fact that after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix where a campaign of 21 races in Formula 1 was completed, Valentino Rossi et Lewis Hamilton exchange their respective cars. An agreement to this effect has been concluded between Mercedes and Yamaha. Under the aegis of Monster or Petronas, we don't know.

We do not know where exactly the operation will take place. But the Formula 1 World Champion will be able to continue his discovery of high-level motorcycling after the R1 Superbike. As for the Doctor, he will find a Formula 1 car that he has not touched since 2006. It was then a Ferrari.

The two men crossed paths in 2013 at Le Mans and have kept in touch ever since. A visit to the Tavullia ranch was to be made but was never scheduled on the calendar of the two champions. See you after the 1ster December to attend an exchange that will not lack salt.
