I think it's far too soon to come to this conclusion. He actually had a great race the previous round in the US. the good news is that he knows he's been off form, that there is more room to improve and is supporting his teammate. I think he will have an epic season next year if he gets the carBig Tea wrote: ↑18 Nov 2019, 00:03The down side now. Sorry guys.
Before the season kicked off, and for the first couple of races when he was 'new' I had great hopes for Lando. I think now that they were misplaced.
I do not mean that he is a bad river, just not a natural champion. He will probably have a good F1 career, but unless he lucks into an exceptional car, which is possible, I do not see several championships coming his way. Shame, I had high hopes.
Maybe not the best time to bring it up, but lets keep our feet on the ground.

I feel it’s still early days, especially when you look back and realise just how unlucky he’s been in quite a few races. France, Silverstone, Germany, Belgium, Japan and a few more. Stack him beside Albon, before the Red Bull move, he actually dominates in qualifying, points etc. There’s clearly room for improvement, which I think will come. He’s definitely giving a better account of himself than Stoffel did.Big Tea wrote: ↑18 Nov 2019, 00:03The down side now. Sorry guys.

I can’t agree with your assessment... He is delivering in his rookie season... Has matched a “seasoned” driver with a lot of momentum (Sainz) in terms of qualifying 10-10 and if not for some bad luck (Canada, France, Spa and Monza come to mind)... he would have had a lot more points in the Championship.Big Tea wrote:The down side now.

He really struggled to switch on the hard tyres, so the pace wasn't there for him. It wasn't there for anyone who tried hards to be fair.
Based on what, that the more experienced driver in Carlos has outperformed him in recent races, on tracks Lando has never raced at? Surely that's to be expected? The race speed will come with experience, just as it will for all rookies. On qualifying pace Lando has been right there with Carlos all season (10v10), and pulled out some incredible laps that Carlos couldn't get near. There is some genuine raw speed there, it's very clear to see. Carlos as the lead driver has been able to dictate the direction of the car through the season, so it comes as no surprise he's been more comfortable with it. Lando will naturally bed himself into the team more over time, and will be able to have his input heard more. And let's be fair to Carlos too, who I think is one of the most under-rated drivers on the grid. Lando is doing a really good job up against him in his rookie season.Big Tea wrote: ↑18 Nov 2019, 00:03Before the season kicked off, and for the first couple of races when he was 'new' I had great hopes for Lando.
