Cheer up, Stoffel! He looks pretty sad there...!

Might help him get back into F1 again although I don't think he will be the first option for Mercedes should one of their drivers leave.

Yeah, he gets to clean the cars with Ocons second hand chamois!😂🤣😂🤣

That was what was agreed 2 years ago. Ocon was reserve driver last year, with the guarantee that he would get a seat in 2020 with a Mercedes powered team. Vandoorne got a contract to be Formula E driver for Mercedes and do sim work for the F1 team in 2019. In 2020 he could become reserve driver, if he performed well.

Average driver, but with a average driver becomes Mercedes also WC

To many good young drivers about atm,and with only 20 seats to fill,it’s a jungle out there,your going to have to be very quick,or very lucky,take lance stroll,if it wasn’t for his dad,he’d out of it by now, and that’s not being mean,it’s facts

He certainly deserves a second chance in the category .. he was completely neglected at McLaren, Alonso himself said the team favored him.

He was so underestimated and in the worst period in McLaren i gotta say i am happy to see him part of F1 again even though i think he is doing very good in Formula E at the moment would love to see him in an F1 car again

Getting paid for the year to work with the greatest Formula 1 operation ever, studying quite possibly the greatest driver ever. Very nice work if you can get it. 👌

Tbh, he deserves a new shot in f1 ...being matched against alonso as a rookie is never a good thing, in my opinion he can handle midfield f1 easily with a “ decent car”

Nice, he is back where he belongs. But it would be difficult though to find a way to become an official driver again. Unless, Williams would have an available seat for him next season. 👍

Happy for Stoffel !

Happy for him

Good news for him, and for F1.

Remember, the same happened to Kvyat in 2018, for Ferrari, he seems a lot better now.

Patients is key here, the guy is still young and has the world ahead. Look what happened to Ocon from Reserve to Renault first team.

He crashed out in his last Formula E outing in Mexico 🇲🇽... Is that a good idea ❓

it sounds cool but how much driving in a real car will he actually get or do reserve drivers actually get? I know if I wasn't driving I don't know if I like being in a race team.

Doubt he will drive the car much, if at all

He drives for Merc in formula e so makes sense

Aber nur in der Formel e Metschbox Rennen😅😅😅😅👎🤮

J'ai rarement vu une aussi grosse chèvre que lui a part Stroll et Magnussen bien sûr donc pq le prendre en 3eme pilote

Only a pity that being a reserve driver is a non active position...

After his atrocious seasons with McLaren? Surprised. The only glimmer of promise came, ironically, in his last F1 race.
