Having watched Lando Norris in F2 this weekend and McLarens qualifying performance, if ever there was a partnership dead in the water before it started, this is it.

God help McLaren for 2019, they are going to need it.

Or did I just catch Norris on a bad weekend? There seem to be many better drivers in F2 to choose from but maybe it's all down to money?

Then a 10 second drive through for a schoolboy error in the second race on the formation lap. He will be eaten alive when he tries to mix it with the big boys.

Artem Markelov would have been my choice based on this weekend, did a Verstappen in the first race, or should I say Verstappen did a Markelov in the F1 race smile

Interesting how the first post has turned out to be so far off the mark! The guy has done an incredible job as a rookie and now in his first proper year doing an equally great job in a car that is clearly not there yet with a mega quick race winning team mate.

Still think it’s amazing how he’s gone from Ginetta Juniors to F1 podium so quickly without being on one of the main young driver programs from Red Bull Mercedes or Ferrari !
You are right, I stand corrected and am happy to admit so. I think I caught him on a bad weekend smile

George Russell is doing us Brits proud as well.
