    Ocon is a good fit. I’m a bit worried Bearman might be making a bad move but excited to see how it goes.

      Ocon prefers being faster than his teammates over anything else, so yeah, I’m really wondering how that behaviour and the likely stupid/unneeded incidents reflect on Bearman.

        Tbf Bearman doesn’t have other options. He’s getting a fingernail on his seat, he really hasn’t done enough yet to prove anything else.

        Piastri DOMINATED in f2 and then it took him a full year out from racing to get on the grid. Bearman is nowhere near that level. So he takes what he can get in my opinion and fair play to him. 25% of the grid British drivers though. Looking forward to the Brazilian invasion in a few years!
