Damn Max. Moments like last week really put into perspective how insane this is. Max pulling so much time on everyone, and meanwhile Checo isn't even second. Sargeant's position is also getting quite bad. Until Singapore I was still thinking that they'd give him another year. He's not that fast or promising, but sometimes rookies just need that warmup year to get going. Look at Yuki for instance. But he just keeps crashing, and the pace isn't great either. There can be some lenience for rookies, but with Piastri and Lawson showing what rookies can do, I'm not sure if Sargeant will get that seat next year.
