Absolutely brutal about Nyck lol.
"He is second in the standings and delivers good races, which distinguishes him from Nyck de Vries
Ouch. Dude.
The line after that, “there is no available to replace him,” was especially shocking since they do have Riccardo just sitting there
Not a great sign for Tsunoda either.
I think he deserves a chance, even just for a weekend or practice session
Can you honestly see Tsunoda at RBR? Sure he has his qualities and good moments. But overall I think he’s too inconsistent.
Ricciardo was too slow in the sim. So he will have to up his game some way to get back in the car. Would love to see in form Ricciardo back though.
Well, guess he had that decision made up already.
Letting the tyre temp drop didn’t help though
Perez was sitting stationary for around 8mins (you could argue 10min+ given he didn’t box after the red flag). Sargeant for around 7 minutes. I don’t think either had any tyre temp and yet Sargeat got out of q1.
Perez was suggesting yesterday that it’s the conditions which he doesn’t like. 4 of the last 5 quali’s have been wet I think.
Non-ideal conditions can be a reason for qualifying 4th rather than 2nd where he should be, there’s just no excuse for not making Q3 in the fastest car.
There is also no one available to replace him
Danny Ric?
Too slow
McLaren drained the poor man
I don’t believe that really. Yes he was poor at McLaren, but he was fast at RBR and Renault. He won multiple races with RBR, and even one with McLaren. He’s definitely better than Perez and Tsunoda.
