Valtteri Bottas spotted leaving the Williams hospitality building. Autosport understands Bottas had a 15 minute meeting with James Vowles(sh.itjust.works)

There are a limited number of available super license holders. Somehow i can’t imagine Audi picking up someone from the F2 ranks to run their new car. Sainz has the inside here, but looks reluctant to take it. If Bottas isn’t looking for a ride, why things like a visit? Hey, Seb still holds a license and he’s German as well.

He is an experienced driver and Vowels knows him well. Although can Williams afford his salary?

Didn’t he used to drive at Williams? And he probably knows Vowles from Mercedes. How long does it take to have a cuppa coffee?
