Idk… rumour is that Merc only offered one year whereas Aston offered multiple years. Why would you want to go to a team that puts you on a single year contract, likely just as a placeholder for Antonelli. Aston may not be top dog rn but they believe in him, trust him, and are clearly putting the effort in to improve the team with the new facilities they’re building
The difference in current trajectory of Merc vs. Aston? With Merc he would have a good chance of getting wins next season and Antonelli is not certain to get into Merc after one year, especially if Alonso out performed George.
Maybe they hold off on antonelli for one more year but if you think they’re dropping George for Alonso then I have a beach in Montana to sell you.
Aston is full building for 26 regs, new factory facilities should help them have similar success to last years big bump. There’s every chance Merc fucks up the new regs twice in a row

If you think any team would keep an underperforming driver whose dad doesn’t own the team then you’ve already purchased that beach.
Aston haven’t shown that they can fix things in the short term is what you are saying, Alonso can’t wait two years at his age and doing so is mad.
