That's quite a historically controversial statement in this topic. There's no hate against Checo, it's usually doubt and amaizement about the difference between Max and Checo. I think in no other team the difference between drivers is this big (ok, maybe AMR with ALO and STR on occasion)

I can imagine that he's never driven the current AT car (or maybe even the current RB car). Anyway, his debut was very very good for his age and level of experience. For sure he deserves a seat in F1 as fresh blood replacing one of the old guys.

i don't make notes and save every page i read and i read a lot, but i'll see what i can find
Christian Horner says" Again, the poor guy getting dropped in a car he’s never driven, wet, dry condition I actually think he did pretty well. And he actually overtook Max on Max’s outlap as he changed onto the intermediate tires at the end there. To finish a race like that in itself with the lack of experience that he has, I thought in very difficult circumstances, he applied himself very well.” https://www.crash.net/f1/news/103434...tch-grand-prix |

yes I understand.
But but the only thing I could find was an (alledged) picture of him in an RB18. https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/w...ment/10511510/ I can imagine a rookie reserve driver not having driven an AT car, but not having driven any RB car...idk. I mean he's also an RBR reserve driver. But that also raises the question. Now that RIC is out, who's gonna drive if say, Checo gets an accident. I mean stakes at RBR are quite a bit higher than at AT. Obviously RIC was the main RBR reserve driver when DEV was still active, but now he's (RIC) at AT.

if checo or max is out, i imagine either Yuki or Liam will drive the RB and there are exactly 978 drivers out there waiting for a phone call to drive the AT. from old Kubica/Jensen, green bike guy Vettel, to F2 champions

it's not an easy decision to make. they are not a Williams trying to squeeze every point from both drivers to make an impression on the points table. you give max a terrible car and he will get drive the team to victory, we saw that in 2021, that car was miles off Merc's pace. |

For at least 6-7 weeks , because the fracture wasn't clean (a multiple fracture)!
That's why RIC got some metal work in his hand , as you can see and read .. I hear , RIC said : I'll be back !

In a bad and slow RB car ,MAX was the first driver to split the Merc dominance LEW/Bottas . At that moment I said : This is only the beginning, and I was right .

Do we really think he'll be back though? I keep thinking he should've retired 2020.

No ,never with his AT car . But if he can get Checo's seat , that's a different story .. Hopefully he can perform better than in the McLaren , because that was really terrible ! Too bad . RIC lost it completely at McLaren and he was beaten in every race by Lando Norris . We'll see . But let's hope for the best for him ...

ah i see, the RB18 being last year's car. i meant this year's car. i guess they are same but different. yes you are allowed to drive last year's car but it must not be fitted with this year's tires.

I am pretty surprised at the gap that's opened between Max and the entire rest of the field, Checo included. It's like something clicked for Max after Baku and he turned it up to 12. |

Honestly I don't hope that . We need more tension-racing for the podium .
But one thing is for sure . The driver who wants to win has a mission ... And that is beating MAX . #MissionImpossible !
