Maybe Pato or Daniel Suarez should take his seat for the Mexican GP.

No super license
Pato was super interested in F1 but it didn’t work out because of that
coarse obsidian
Maybe Pato or Daniel Suarez should take his seat for the Mexican GP.
A joke. Because Sergio is not doing the job. And I was thinking of other better Mexican drivers
thin berry
Just give it to Lawson and be done with it
thin berry
idk who else could take it and don’t say Ricciardo
craggy zenith
How about not the guy with 5 races
hearty shoal
craggy zenith
that is how you get a repeat of Albon
Daniel, Yuki, the Manifestation of David Coulthard
anyone is a better choice than throwing an inexperienced driver into the Red Bull
craggy zenith
Sebastia- he's not coming back
thin berry
The only seat Daniel needs to get is on his sofa
Or in another series maybe idk just shoo
craggy zenith
The only seat Daniel needs to get is on his sofa
if it means Perez follows him sure
craggy zenith
because he has lost every reason to be in that seat
wet sequoia
I’d prefer Ricciardo to try that Red Bull just to see if he still can drive
craggy zenith
He alone has cost Red Bull the WCC
wet sequoia
At least after Singapore when Perez is still bad
thin berry
I’d prefer Ricciardo to try that Red Bull just to see if he still can drive
How many more chances does he need atp

How many more chances does he need atp
he got one

McLaren, Vcarb, just let it go he’s done
craggy zenith
that was the tyre test last year
thin berry
Logan and mick didn’t get so much leeway
craggy zenith
Logan and mick didn’t get so much leeway
because one was vastly over his head
thin berry
And they were actual beginner
craggy zenith
and the other stayed so long through his name
thin berry
Yeah and so is Ricciardo clearly
wet sequoia
They crashed in 1 of 4 races
and racked up a damage bill large enough to buy their own F1 team
thin berry
Actually I don’t think Mick even topped the destructor championship
wet sequoia
Best option for Red Bull is put Ricciardo in after Singapore (If Perez sucks) Lawson into RB then at the end of the season they’ll know where the drivers stand
craggy zenith
Actually I don’t think Mick even topped the destructor championship
No, he did it twice
thin berry
Well he was still a rookie and it’s not like it’s the only thing that matters

I’m tired of Ricciardo being around running his mouth and doing nothing get Lawson or Yuki in the RB and Hadjar in the Vcarb

You can’t be mad at Perez camping in the RB seat and calling for ricciardo to replace him that makes no sense

I wouldn’t put faith in Yuki
I don’t think Ricciardo should full on replace Perez for next year

If Perez fucks Baku/Singapore, street circuits he’s good at he should not be in that car any longer

when he's given the chance and flops
at this point, there is literally nothing to lose in putting Ricciardo in as a test
thin berry
He might have been a cute clown at some point which btw never made a great driver but now he doesn’t only suck but he’s said some very nefarious things
wet sequoia
I’m not even convinced Ricciardo is the best option, he’s the potential safe option
thin berry
when he's given the chance and flops
He has???
craggy zenith
he cannot do a worse job than Perez, because Perez has done a worse job than both Gasly and Albon did
craggy zenith
Lando and Yuki both kicked his ass which should never have happened
Even Carlos admitted to that McLaren being the strangest thing he's even driven
thin berry
Otherwise you could argue the Williams and the Haas were too shit and Mick and Logan should have been given a chance in top teams???
craggy zenith
Lando and Yuki both kicked his ass which should never have happened
and Yuki is not in contention
wet sequoia
McLaren pre Austria 2023 was an abomination
thin berry
Wtf is this about this man that has you all in a chokehold honestly
craggy zenith
I'm not Red Bull, i would've given Yuki a chance at this point
coarse obsidian
Maybe Red Bull is fucked right now for this season because no one on both RB teams can help Max
craggy zenith
but they don't want to, so your options are limited
thin berry
and Yuki is not in contention
Exactly and yet he‘s doing a lot better that should be demonstration enough
It’s bullshit
wet sequoia
I’m not even selling Ricciardo into Red Bull, Perez is not delivering so try your “safe” option

Welcome to Marko's funhouse of politics

Lawson performed better then Tsunoda in the 5 races he done
Lawson is high risk but he has high rewards to come with him
craggy zenith
Lawson performed better then Tsunoda in the 5 races he done
not really, they were evenly matched in the race they finished together
wet sequoia
Tsunoda had 2 DNF’s and only beat Lawson once, just barely and out of the points
craggy zenith
Yuki never started Monza, and Perez punted Tsunoda into the wall
thin berry
Welcome to Marko's funhouse of politics
That’s not the point though the point is you defending it like it’s fair that he’s hogged a seat and been made excuses for for what, 3-4 years now? Meanwhile F2 champions can’t get one
wet sequoia
When Lawson got a very late call up
thin berry
Get him tf out
craggy zenith
That’s not the point though the point is you defending it like it’s fair that he...
those F2 champions don't belong to Red Bull
that is the reality of driver academies
wet sequoia
Lawson has much more adaptability then Tsunoda
craggy zenith
Blame Sauber for not signing Pourchaire and Aston for signing Drugovich at all
Red Bull has nothing to do with it
coarse obsidian
Second seat is cursed until Max leaves.
craggy zenith
they already gave a chance to a former F2 champion and it went poorly
wet sequoia
Pourchaire barely won F2, Drugovich I don’t even remember the split he won by
thin berry
that is the reality of driver academies
And also the reality of someone being given a seat because hihi friendly pr clown + nice sponsors pay check
craggy zenith
Pourchaire barely won F2, Drugovich I don’t even remember the split he won by
it was quite large, he won it in Monza
thin berry
That’s the reality of Daniel Ricciardo let’s at least recognise it
craggy zenith
and the appeal of Perez is?
thin berry
It’s also ridiculous to keep him
craggy zenith
At this point, put Ricciardo in for the rest of the season
if he sucks get rid of him
wet sequoia
It’s not enough to keep him in a WCC team
craggy zenith
this can be the final test of "We've given you what you wanted, now show us you can do a better job or get out"

At this point, put Ricciardo in for the rest of the season

Hadjar needs to go somewhere and they can't lose Lawson

Tsunoda has taken to long to become the driver he is, he doesn’t have large reward gains

If they toss Perez AND Ricciardo then the only option with Lawson is Hadjar
Unless you want to try Iwasa

Hadjar is a complete unknown
Lawson is about the same as Tsunoda
and Red Bull don't have faith in Tsunoda
coarse obsidian
If they toss Perez AND Ricciardo then the only option with Lawson is Hadjar
Yes! Clean house!

it's know that Honda came in last minute in 2023 with a higher offer to Red Bull to keep him
wet sequoia
Without Honda Tsunoda would have been gone after 2 seasons
craggy zenith
Yep

He does not deserve to go to Red Bull, he’s the same as Stroll, he has protection and the best will never come out of him

Great statement.
wet sequoia
Next year is leaving to much unknown about both teams
craggy zenith
Perez has proven he won't cut it next year
Daniel slots in, you can bring in Lawson now to get him prepared for 2025
if he leaves you replace him with Yuki and bring in Hadjar along side a now fairly experienced Lawson
if you keep him for one more year, you place Hadjar in Super Formula and you keep Yuki at VCARB for that final year
you can then either break off Tsunoda's ties to Honda and promote him, or bring in Lawson to Red Bull
Hadjar comes in and you bring in another Red Bull junior like Lindblad
coarse obsidian
I think people are stunned with that good plan.

I'd need the clips again to make judge of that

damn
craggy zenith
ehh at least it's been obvious to people paying attention
it's only become more public the more people look on him to fight for the title
his mental attitude isn't there which is something he's been criticised for for a long time
Oscar has the attitude, but not the experience
it's a weird dichotomy
wooden kettle
Oscar has the attitude, but not the experience
this is what i think too
but i feel osco is gonna catch up pretty quick
but yeah idk i dont keep eyes on mclaren too much
craggy zenith
next year or by the end of this year
wooden kettle
like lando has a head start but not that much of a head start.
craggy zenith
this is a driver who while getting more testing than most, didn't get the same level of pre-season experience most rookies did
like he completed some test sessions with Alpine, that's about it
his only pre-season experience with McLaren was the young drivers test and Bahrain 2023
it was always going to take him time to catch up and he's starting to
it's just his consistency is off and certain tracks are still catching him out
Spain for instance
there's no real other explanation for his pace there other than he doesn't suit it
wooden kettle
i think the monza start kind of proved that he's got the skill to surpass lando, so
yeah i'm really looking forward to how things go for him
craggy zenith
i think the monza start kind of proved that he's got the skill to surpass lando,...
well he knows Lando will be overly cautious, even more so than normal
wooden kettle
definitely one of my faves on the grid atm so
craggy zenith
if he can show the team his true potential prior to next year, he sees it as a chance to cement the team in their belief of who can win the title next year
beyond multiple DNF's for both of them, his chance of beating both Lando and Max is ultra slim
next year is different
He'll give the team the WCC that they want; he couldn't care less about Lando winning the WDC, doesn't affect him
wooden kettle
honestly, as he should.
craggy zenith
but if he proves to the team that "look, i am faster, i can make better starts, i have the same if not better race pace than Lando, i'm aggressive and i can overtake"
It helps his chances of the team focusing on him to win the title next year, give him the upgrades first and follow his car development
craggy zenith
honestly, as he should.
Like if the team want Lando the win the title and he just ignores their orders, that becomes a problem
wooden kettle
i actually love this kinda stuff. like driver politics and stuff
wooden kettle
Like if the team want Lando the win the title and he just ignores their orders, ...
for sure.
craggy zenith
if they really are backing their equal number 1's in the team, then Oscar disappears in front of Lando, that's his problem, not the team
craggy zenith
Like you have Buxton and Sky saying how disappointed they are in McLaren and how they should be doing better
like no, they have said from day 1 they are both number 1's and equal, and from equality comes letting them race each other
yeah it may cost Lando the title, but that's his problem for making too make mistakes
the team's rule is you don't hit each other and you don't make each other lose points
the fact the one stop worked for Ferrari was impressive
Piastri only came within 3 seconds of him by the end and was impeeded first by Sainz and then traffic
people just won't give Ferrari credit for making it work because it's easier to shit on McLaren for not making Lando the golden boy

leclerc will be past lando in the wdc by singapore

the Ferrari excels in a straight line and around slow speed corners
if they slapped on a high downforce package, Singapore might work for them, as would Mexico, Abu Dhabi and Baku
it still ignores the fact there are areas the McLaren just does better
and that you also have to rely on Sainz being up there with Leclerc consistantly
Qatar last year Leclerc was way behind Max and the McLaren's
both the Mercs and McLaren's were super fast at Cota
Las Vegas more had to do with Safety cars and the extreme cold temps

i agree tbh
craggy zenith
Qatar, Cota, Brazil and Abu Dhabi, the McLaren's will be up there
that's at least half the races remaining

this season is unpredictable who knows
craggy zenith
it's that unpredictable that i wouldn't be surprised if Red Bull found something and came back
cosmic vapor
i mean like lets say ferrari is really good this season and leclerc wins those races
i think this papaya bullshit will let piastri and norris split the amount of races they have to win
cosmic vapor
it's that unpredictable that i wouldn't be surprised if Red Bull found something...
thats one thing i dont see happening
redbull just doesnt have the budget
or the abilityt the concept is literally fucked
craggy zenith
yeah, it's called crossing out the 19 with a sharpee and writing 20 next to it lol
cosmic vapor
huh
craggy zenith
it's a joke about them bringing last year's car
cosmic vapor
oh
craggy zenith
which i don't know what the legalities of that is
cosmic vapor
prob very not allowed
craggy zenith
