In that link the ranking gets weird pretty quickly. Most strikingly odd ones are that Rosberg is ahead of Hamilton, which should ring some alarm bells. And Senna is down in 19th!

I think they will be on the grid. Liberty & Co will want to make sure there are still 20 cars on the grid. But who could invest into them? Maybe Mercedes with George Russell as a junior driver?
