The international nightmare is over; . The Mercedes F1 team, whose newly crowned champion , will add Williams’ Valtteri Bottas to its lineup. Taking Bottas’ seat will be Felipe Massa, who retired from Williams less than two months ago.

The vacant Mercedes seat was an unexpected twist, given that champion Nico Rosberg wasn’t exactly expected to retire at 31 years old. Rosberg’s retirement opened up one of the two most coveted seats in the F1 field, given that Mercedes has been dominant for years—in 2016, Rosberg and teammate Lewis Hamilton won all but two of the 21 races. Their only two losses stemmed from and .

Thus, when the Mercedes seat became available, everybody kind of wanted it. Red Bull’s Max Verstappen , but early on, it .

But neither of them got the seat, and Mercedes swiped Bottas from his Williams team for the 2017 season. Hopefully Bottas and Hamilton get along better than Hamilton and Rosberg did. (Actually, no, is fun and entertaining.)

As for Bottas’ seat at Williams F1, Massa will come out of retirement to return to the team that he left just a month and a half ago. Massa’s retirement was one of the most emotional points in 2016, with his “final” home race in Brazil . Massa draped a Brazilian flag on his shoulders as he walked from the wrecked car, with fans, other teams and track workers cheering him on as he made his final walk down the track as an F1 driver.

Except it wasn’t his final walk down the track as an F1 driver, because he’s coming back. He probably in his short retirement. Just don’t count on Rosberg following in Massa’s footsteps and coming back to the sport, because he seems pretty set on retirement.

Either way, wipe your tears! Get excited! It’s almost time to go racing!

Oddly, it appears that Bottas’ contract is only a one-year deal at Mercedes. According to , former F1 driver Mika Salo said a one-year deal is “really strange” and rare in F1 these days. We’ll let you decide for yourselves on that one, but Autoweek reports that Salo said perhaps the Mercedes team “wants to check that Valtteri does the job as he should.”
