Give Schumacher a season or two at Alpha Tauri maybe? With Porsche in the wings, if he turns out to be good and they can have Mick in the main team in 2026 with a German engine, it'd be a big PR coup.

As much as I was optimistic to see Mick do well in F1, so far he's nowhere near getting a top seat, even if largely for PR reasons. Kind of expecting him to hang around for a few seasons in a mid-tier car before dropping off.
Think I'd rather bet on Hulkenberg being the F1 face of Porsche at this point! On that note, it'll be weird to have so few German drivers on the field next season (just 1 as it stands I think). A far cry from these days:

If Perez was to take a seat elsewhere next season (obviously very unlikely) I genuinely think Gasly would be top contender for the seat. I'm not quite sure why he's still at Alpha Tauri if that's genuinely their test bed for RB candidates. There's plenty of talent in the RB ranks in F2/3, but they're currently blocked by Tsunoda/Gasly.
Probably best for everyone (aside from Schumacher and Ocon) if Gasly moves to Alpine
