Any thoughts on the young, 18 year old, Ferrari rookie Oliver Bearman from last weekend? He comes from my old home town and also went to my school, so I was vested in seeing him drive well, and I thought he did admirably to secure the points that he did. I wonder how long until we see him back on the grid?
I was impressed. Similar thing with Liam Lawson last year - who out-drove Tsunoda.
I'd be happy to see those 2 included in the 2025 lineup, and start flushing out some of the deadwood.

On a loosely-related note - regarding Monaco: Princess Charlene comes from my old home town and also went to my old high school - albeit several years (generations?) later.

That’s cool too. I’m rather feeling my age when I see teenagers in F1. It’s definitely measured in generations now Duncan
My son and I thought he did smashing on such short notice; and managing those tires and pace at the end to get the pts!
He can come drive for Andretti! ;-)

I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
Now you know how some of us felt about Hamilton and Schumacher.

Eh. I feel like this is how F1 is, at least since I"ve been watching. Usually a dominant car/driver and all the intrigue is in who will be the best of the rest. Also this level of domination for red bull I do find pretty interesting. Never before do I remember seriously considering a driver could in theory run the table and it make actual sense.

How can I not agree with this.

Me too, it’s far worse in terms of competition than ever before. He could win every race this season and probably next. It won’t be until the rule changes in 2026 that it may open up a little. I only watched last week because of the rookie kid.
Don't blame Max, he's just doing his job very professionally.

And please tell me why he is considered Dutch?
He lives in Monaco, because of his privacy (or rather taxes I think) and he was raised in Belgium I think.
I'm not blaming Max, doesn't change the fact it's boring. In the last 2 seasons he's won 34 of 44 races, 77%. During Hamilton's run he won 54%, 73 of 136, and Schumacher won 56%, 48 of 85.
We've never seen dominance at this level.

I've always wondered about that. In addition, he was born in Belgium.
BTW - Norris is also 1/2 Belgian. His mom is Flemish, he speaks the language fluently, and he used to spend several months a year there when he was growing up. Probably explains why he, Verstappen, and de Vries are very close friends off-track.

His dad is Dutch.
Nico Rosberg's Dad (also a former world-champion) is Finnish, though he goes as a German.
There doesn't seem to be much consistency in what nationality the modern Europeans claim. Is this a post-EU thing?
Regards,

Finnish? I would have wagered he was Danish. Funny thing is he was born in Sweden. But you're right; both of his parents are Finnish.

I claim to be European first and Dutch second. My parents are Dutch and part of my family seem to originate from Germany (which can be seen in my familyname, which lead to namecalling at school). My dad often considered me Germanophile. Another part might have their roots in France.

As a person who grew up watching the Andretti family race in the U.S. (Mario, Michael, John, Marco) I also find this offensive. F-1 is arguably as popular in the U.S. as it has ever been right now. The involvement of the Andretti Family teamed up with Chrysler has the potential to boost this popularity into the stratosphere. Would they be competitive right off the bat? It would probably take a few years, but I think they could eventually build a competitive team. It is not like F-1 is has an overcrowded field. In most forms of racing, a 20-car field would be considered small. I just don’t get it. From my perspective there could be nothing negative about the Andretti family joining the field.
On a side note, I just finished watching the latest season of “Drive To Survive.” Another great season, although they struggled to find much drama with Red Bull / Verstappen being so dominate the whole season.
