The second seat at Ferrari is the interesting one. Looking at the field Ferrari have the following options:

1) Continuity with Sebastian Vettel

2) Blockbuster move with Lewis Hamilton

3) Hedging your future bets with Daniel Ricciardo

4) Back up option for Leclerc with Bottas, Hulkenberg or some other also ran

5) More youth with maybe someone like Norris.

The problem for Mercedes is they already have the best driver on the grid in my opinion, and retaining him is the biggest concern for them, but that hampers them long-term in many respects, as their focus will always be on Hamilton.
