    It makes sense. He’s not stellar but OK. He brings Chinese sponsors and he’s not a rookie … both things Gene Haas likes.

      I really like Zhou. As you say, he’s not top tier but he doesn’t half put a shift in, and some of his performances have made Bottas look a bit silly.

      I fear he’ll forever be a midfielder but certainly proven himself worthy of a drive.

        *Haas signs Zhou.*

        *China invades Taiwan.*

        Gene Haas: “Not again!”

      I thought they are loosing hulk and zhou would replace him? Or did i miss them signing some one already?

        Ollie Bearman is understood to be a relatively safe bet for Hulk’s seat, though no official announcement on that yet

          Oh right i remember that being the case. Makes sense. I guess hass has to take on Ollie (since he is Ferrari driver), and i wounder if they hope to get more sponsor funding from zhou than Mag or just think Zhou would be better/more consistent? Mag has not been performing well, especially compared to Hulk.
