No question. Whiting left a big hole and desperation led to Masi. Sadly it was clear filling Whitings' shoes was going to take more. A mid year(2021) correction was in order however, when it was clear he was out of his depth.

The RB18 looks freakin cool. I love it. Max got a lot of laps on the first day. Checo ran into some issues yesterday.

The Ferrari seems quick too. Hopefully Mclaren and Ferrari can be in the mix a bit up at the front too.

No Russian/Belarusian drivers/teams allowed to compete in F1 also with flags, symbols, sponsors. You can however, participate in F1 event as a neutral.

If he was smart he would have embraced his Italian heritage, you know, the Mazepini family! Signori Mazepini, your pasta iza ready! Prego.

Kevin Magnussen is set to return to HAAS to replace Mazepin. Desperate times.

I don't see a problem with that. I always thought KMag was a decent driver and was sad to see him go. A bit hot headed but that isn't atypical of an F1 driver. I wonder who he is going to tell to "suck my balls mate" this year

Can’t argue that he’s decent. Because he is. I guess it was the safest choice since he already knows how HAAS operates and can serve as a cushion for Schumi.

I did not see that one coming for KMag.
A good lesson on leaving your old job on good terms It keeps a door open just in case.



Is this to become a real test to see how good/bad the Jr Shumi really is...

The fact that he's not a consistent driver, he's decent, but nothing that shows promise. Maybe he can prove me wrong this season with the new changes. Then there's of course, the fact that he drove a big chunk of his career for HAAS, which definitely cannot help any driver out there.
