Bottas won 10 Formula 1 races over five seasons at Mercedes as Lewis Hamilton’s teammate from 2017-21. Mercedes announced the signing Thursday. Bottas did not score a point this season with Sauber and the team replaced him and Zhou Guanyu with a new lineup of Nico Hulkenberg and Brazilian newcomer Gabriel Bortoleto. Bottas’ return to Mercedes was made possible after Mick Schumacher, son of seven-time champion Michael Schumacher, announced he was leaving.
