Someone (who I think may work for Alpha Tauri) is at the airport with Alonso & Andrea and posted on his stories about Alonso wearing a full tracksuit for the flight. 😂

I have no idea. I saw something earlier that made it seem like it had been announced & then when I actually read it, it just seemed like speculation still. It also said that Williams were switching to Renault engines for 2023 and 2024. If that's true, I guess Piastri makes sense.

I can't read Piastri as a person (based on limited social media 😆). Hopefully all this hype doesn't make him feel under pressure once he does get a seat.

A post-Canada swap would seem very sudden, but I guess it could have been in the works for a long time if Alpine are eager to get him a seat.

Thank-you. I only started watching f2 thisnyear because i use f1tv. So I don't know the hype, but seems George and Lando at least were everything they were raved about in f2. Yuki and zhou show a lot of promise.... so oscar, great , but if Alex cant make williams do much, not sure it will make a difference. Oscar will probably crash less, but also doesn't bring the sponsers outside alpine to pay for it.
Anyway I'm assuming 2023. The renault engine makes the most sense negotiation wise

I think the hype mostly comes from winning both F3 and F2 in his rookie seasons which is something both George & Charles did.

I’m not a huge fan of Dax but I adore K Bell. Dax seems like a genuine friend to Danny though — it was nice hearing how he messages and supports him even through his lows.

Points that stood out to me:
- How great of a person Daniel is… with his good manners and thoughtfulness. Like, this man was brought up right by Joe and Grace.
- Everyone loves Blake ust as much as they love Daniel hahahahaha
- Daniel talking about how much multitasking goes on in the cockpit. I think a lot of people don’t realize how much on the fly adjusting the drivers do and how much skill it really takes to be an F1 driver.
- The level of involvement Daniel has with his merch, having meetings every Tuesday or whatever. DR’s merch is top tier — it’s amazing and annoying at the same time (because it’s so damn expensive).

God, I love him so much 🥰 I really hope he has better drives from this point onwards and he enjoys himself till he hangs his racing boots (which is still in a few years, I’m sure).

It is all rumours still atm. But given Oscar said on F1TV recently that 2023 looks okay for a seat and seemed very happy, I’d say that 2023 seat at Williams is best bet so far & will be announced at Silverstone where he possibly has an FP1 outing with Alpine?

Engine deal seems a reasonable rumour as that would have helped secure a seat for Oscar.

I think Williams were looking at Nyck for the seat too but I guess Alpine want Oscar in that seat more than Merc want Nyck in it?


The mid season swap rumour is less likely me thinks as Latifi has paid a lot of money for that seat.

From what I saw in f2 Oscar is a very chilled guy and deals with pressure really well. Daniel is the Aussie Larrikin & Oscar is the Aussie chilled dude! I’m Australian & Oscar reminds me so much of my brother! Chilled, laid back and really smart.

person that watched him in F3 and F2 here 🙋‍♀️ he's a very calm and controlled driver with insane talent, he won almost every race in F2 last season (when the car didn't have problems) and made super little costly mistakes - his sense of humour is 👌🏻 (similar to Lando's actually)
i think rn or at least last year he was more on the quiet side - actually if you want you can check out the Prema YouTube channel, they have challenges (highly recommend the egg cooking video and the one where they have to guess songs - small leclerc is hilarious in that one) and the do Live At Prema, short LAP (which is basically unboxed)

Good morning! While I’m waiting for my second train, I thought I’ll drop my race outfit. Only attending the race on Sunday, busy busy. Also manifesting rain as always because I love chaos.

Esteban is already there. I think all the other drivers are also there or on their way to Canada?
