Stroll is probably my disappointment of the season. I never expected much from De Vries, but Stroll always seemed like a decent midfield driver to me, better than the “daddy bought a team for me” stigma that he has going for him. But this season he’s getting obliterated by Alonso, and he doesn’t seem to be able to recover.
It’s a shame, I was hoping he’ll show he’s actually good. He started the year well - if anyone else finished P6 in a new car with barely any practice, a week after breaking both hands and still with screws in them, they’d be praised to high heavens. Some nice battles with the likes of Russell and Sainz in the early races too.
And then he just quit or something. Tho the team isn’t helping either, he keeps having the worse car problems and shittier strategy of the two.
Regardless, just like with Checo, I might like the guys but at this point I’d prefer to see Drugovich get a seat. At least Lawson now is getting a chance. We see Piastri killing it, so I’d say we need new people instead of reliable fossils if someone is to push Max eventually.
