How poor is Hulk to be beaten so conveniently by a young driver jumping into the car without a great deal of track experience. That's 2 weekends this year. Just shows how much of a disservice are the old drivers to F1 who are holding precious spots and denying a future for the young drivers waiting in the wings. What a shame.
I hate comments like these. Just flat out factually wrong. Bearman wasnt faster in Azer nor Brazil, at least not in the races. Leaving out so much context.

That being said, it wouldnt suprise me if Bearman ends up being a quicker driver when he has got a little bit more experience under his belt. Hes had a good junior career. Time will tell.

Bearman & Colapinto looked like F2 drivers this weekend. Hype cooling. Not sure Franco gets a seat now.

Yep. Two drivers I don’t rate. Both dropped from their elite teams for obvious reasons. Simply not good enough, and will now see out their F1 days at Williams.

I assume you're including Alonso in that as well??
If I come across as blunt, I apologise, it's my ASD. Sometimes, like an F1 car aqua-planing, it gets out of my control.
