Mercury has a major liquid iron core and its inertia is the reason for the elliptic orbit (and wobble). Many circular Solar magnetic fieldlines are crossed per revolution ('year') affecting the induced flux of the planet. Messenger will crash or fly past when trying to orbit.

Just goes to show that there's no substitute for observations. Still, even after all those years, the little planet can yeid surprises. Cool.
