Go into partnership with Andretti with a view to a split in 5 years when they eventually get their act together

You make your bed and lie in it, I suppose...
Don't think anyone will touch Haas with a bargepole until they divest themselves of one half of their driver line-up.

Because he's Russian, or because he's rubbish?
Because:
- He's Russian
- His dad won't be paying for him to race any more
- There are better racers that can replace him, if he isn't bringing the $$$$, possibly even other pay drivers.

Well it’s not like Gene Haas is scraping along on the breadline.
Mazepin’s seat is based on his access to money - when this is gone he’s not got a lot left to offer. Pay-to-drive can wheedle out some talent - Stroll has turned out to be not useless for example - but Niki has remained consistently at the back despite his dad’s money.

Stroll's an interesting one...
I've been wondering for a while how he would fare outside of Papa's influence, as I think he's actually half decent. Not top drawer, but solid, if a bit up-and-down.
The traditional litmus test for a driver has always been his or her team mate, and Mick Schumacher has pretty well much wiped the floor with Mazepin. Although we don't actually know how good Mick is, because he's been equally greased through the system. He could also yet prove to be another untalented son of a famous father...

Nico Rosberg, Bruno Senna (OK, nephew only), Nelson Piquet Jnr?
My opinion of Damon Hill is best not repeated in the public domain.
(I think I've run out of non-Verstappen options from my memory)

I would have remembered Paul Stewart at a push, but wouldn't have got the other ones.
