Alfa Romeo’s Kimi Raikkonen is the most experienced driver in F1 ever as he holds the record for the greatest number of races entered at 341. He will also be 42 next year and there has been no concrete indication from him on whether he will stay in F1. Rumors have also been abound recently suggesting that current Haas driver Mick Schumacher will be signed by Alfa Romeo to replace Kimi. Team principal Frederic Vasseur has now spoken about the driver situation while directly addressing the possibility of Kimi driving for them next year as quoted by GPFans Link to poll: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgwMbXqyhE3IpkaQDXZ4AaABCQ 0:00 - Mick Schumacher To Replace Kimi Raikkonen At Alfa Romeo Next Year? 1:44 - Fast Feed I'm your host Dillon Shelley and first up on Formula World: Mick Schumacher To Replace Kimi Raikkonen At Alfa Romeo Next Year? Vasseur started off by responding to the rumors of Mick Schumacher driving for them next year “It is far too early to discuss this. We are working together, we have tonnes of races in a row over the last two or three months and I think we [will] discuss together in the last part of the season, not before” “To keep the system under pressure is always a good thing. I don’t want to commit for a long time, I don’t want to say ‘Okay guys, you can relax and blah blah’. We have to keep everybody under pressure” “F1 is all about pressure and we have to keep it like this. We don’t know what could happen around us, in the junior series and in the top of the field and so on and we don’t want to take this kind of commitment today” He summed up his words by speaking specifically about his current driver line-up “We know that the grid will begin to form at the top. Mercedes will make its decision, then it will be Red Bull's turn and at some point, it will be our turn. At the moment, we do not have to decide. We have doubts right now with Kimi, but Antonio is improving” Fast Feed Red Bull boss Christian Horner has suggested that “both Pierre [Gasly] and Alex [Albon] are tremendously gifted drivers, but timing just wasn’t right” during their time at Red Bull “Then the pressured environment that [they] have, and the expectation, it was very tough for them” He also feels that it was a “bold move to step out of the scheme this year with Sergio [Perez] but the way he settled in and the way he’s delivering, it would have been very tough for him not to be in Formula 1” McLaren’s Daniel Ricciardo has “had success in this sport for the last ten years and [he doesn't] want to suddenly give up everything that got [him] there” “That's why [he wants] to continue to use [his] instincts. On the other hand, it would be stubborn to say: the way I do it is right” He has “to learn to acknowledge the facts. Because when [he looks] at Lando, [he sees] that the car works very well with a different driving technique” Aston Martin’s reserve driver Nico Hulkenberg pointed out that “Max [Verstappen] and Lewis [Hamilton] are performing at the very highest level and it is fascinating to follow the championship” He added that Max “is only 23, but already has six years of experience in Formula 1. As a result, he's already insanely seasoned” AlphaTauri team principal Franz Tost has stated “that a young driver needs three years to understand this complicated Formula 1, because Formula 1 has become much more complicated than it was years ago” Alpine’s Fernando Alonso thinks that they “will fight with AlphaTauri and Aston Martin for fifth place for sure” He also thinks “it is more building the team structure, fine-tuning the pit stops, the strategy, the tyre management, and many things that [they] can to be as prepared as possible for 2022” Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff thinks that “Sebastian [Vettel] is someone who not only looks at sustainability, but lives by it”, referring to Vettel’s statement that he will vote for the Green Party “It's in keeping with his character that he has this attitude. I think that's absolutely fine” “It is sometimes a tightrope act to fly around the world as a Formula 1 driver, to operate these monster machines and at the same time to say that you vote green. He has to take the criticism”, Wolff added Retired F1 driver turned pundit Martin Brundle has explained that “if you were running Mercedes-Benz, you’d ask is Valtteri Bottas our man to win the World Championship when Lewis inevitably retires two, three, four years into the future. You’d have to think no” “I hate to say that, I really admire Valtteri as he is a great driver and does an amazing job against the might of Lewis Hamilton”, Brundle added However, he thinks “Mercedes have to get a young gun in there that would emerge as their automatic new team leader sooner than later” Do you think Mick Schumacher should replace Kimi Raikkonen next year?

Formula 1 cars have become more complicated than ever and they are in a constant state of flux. One recent driving force has been the move towards sustainable racing. As such, there is one aspect of F1 that defending champion Lewis Hamilton is quite unable to understand as quoted by MotorsportWeek Link to poll: https://www.youtube.com/post/UgxbT-eJT5WKI0FP-IB4AaABCQ 0:00 - F1 Direction That Lewis Hamilton Doesn’t Understand 1:33 - Fast Feed I'm your host Dillon Shelley and first up on Formula World: F1 Direction That Lewis Hamilton Doesn’t Understand Hamilton revealed what he doesn’t understand “I don’t understand why we’re going heavier. I don’t understand particularly why we go heavier when there’s all this talk about being more sustainable – just as the sport is going in that direction” He further explained why this isn’t the right direction for the sport “By going heavier and heavier and heavier, you’re using more and more energy. So that feels that’s not necessarily in the right direction or in the thought process” He elaborated on how lighter cars are better “The lighter cars were more nimble, were nowhere near as big, naturally, and so racing, maneuvering the car, was better” He further explained this using a couple of street circuits “On the tracks we’re going to, they’re getting wider. In Baku it’s quite wide in places and of course it’s narrow in other places. Monaco was always relatively impossible to pass, but now the cars are so big that it’s too big for the track” He signed off by reiterating his views “As I said, as we get heavier and heavier, that’s more energy we’ve got to dissipate – bigger brakes, more brake dust, more fuel to get you to the locations. So, I don’t fully understand it” Fast Feed Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz has revealed that when he “changed from Toro Rosso to Renault, [he] thought ‘OK, these two cars are completely different but it’s maybe a one off” “But then changing from Renault to McLaren it was then completely different again. Then, from McLaren to Ferrari was completely different again” “So, it kept opening up [his] eyes a bit how different everything is from those four different teams and how much you need to adapt. [He guesses he has] some practice with it” now Honda's F1 Managing Director Masashi Yamamoto “could imagine Lewis going for 25 points because Max [Verstappen] couldn't go any further” in Baku He thinks “that's exactly what Hamilton was trying to do. When Lewis went straight into the first corner, [he] felt Red Bull are having a real battle this year because [Mercedes] are pushing so hard” McLaren team principal Andreas Seidl feels that “success in Formula One is not a one-man show, it's a big team effort” “The key to the current success is the spirit within the team. [They] have a clear vision of how [they] want to get McLaren back to the top of Formula One” Seidl added “With [CEO Zak Brown’s] support and the freedom [Seidl has] been given, [he’s] been able to use [his] skills to shape the team so that it can operate successfully” Circuit of The Americas chairman Bobby Epstein has stated that if a second race at the circuit “were good for the sport [they’d] do all [they] could do, and [he thinks] it would be good” Haas team principal Guenther Steiner feels that the incident between his two drivers on the last lap in Baku “was not too dangerous, but just the emotion involved because of the high speed” He added that he has “talked to both of them, because you have to avoid that kind of thing” “If it goes wrong, it goes really wrong. [They've] got everything figured out. They both have to learn from it how to react” Steiner suggested His driver Nikita Mazepin, meanwhile, thinks that he is “a simple and well-mannered guy, so [he’s] always had good relationships off the track with all the racers” “But on the track [they] are professionals. [They] work hard and let the spectators see the races they want. The public definitely doesn't want to watch boring races” Mazepin added 15,000 fans will be allowed to attend the next race at the Paul Ricard circuit in France Red Bull’s Max Verstappen thinks that his “heart is good. ‘I mean, I think so’” Max added He also feels that his former teammates Carlos Sainz, Daniel Ricciardo, Pierre Gasly, and Alexander Albon “are very nice guys” He added that they “are all so driven, like on track of course [they] always want to beat each other. But off track [they] can actually have a good time as well and have fun” Are F1 cars too heavy?
Ever wondered why F1 can't just race at any track? There are plenty of rules that have to be obeyed in order to be a Grade 1 circuit...

Although it's still early in the season I thought this would be an interesting time to compare how Sergio Perez stacks up against Gasly and Albon in their respective first 5 races at Red Bull. Has Checo been an improvement and will he be the driver that can help Red Bull grab that P1 in the constructors championship?
