The whole point in a young driver program is start with a large pool and filter it down. That's why you put them together. One wins, the other loses. One gets a Mercedes DTM drive and the promise that one day he'll get to visit Lewis Hamilton, or see Bottas. The other gets dropped and goes to Formula E.

Except: sometimes they both lose. * Liuzzi/Speed * Vettel/Bourdais * Buemi/Alguersuari * Ricciardo/Vergne * Verstappen/Sainz (In this instance you could argue both eventually won) * Gasly/Hartley |

They didn't.
I think you misinterpreted my post. I just posted a list of the driver pairings they had in the last few years. Of these driver pairings there was (almost) always at least 1 loser (except Sainz). It's obvious that the winners were Vettel - Ricciardo - Verstappen and Gasly. At least, I thought that was obvious ![]() |

Williams have told Mercedes, if you want the second seat for Ocon, then find us a title sponsor. Mercedes is working behind the scenes to make this happen, and there's some talk of a current Mercedes powered team's sponsor maybe switching over.
So no drive for Kubica if this happens then. Very disappointing. ![]() |

Ocon is the one who can do a load of good for Williams

Yep but somehow I am curious what Kubica still has.

I think we're probably all curious, however we're all looking back to the past rather than the future with Robert, I feel....

Off the team he had signed with before his accident. Apparently.

Well as this thread is actually about him, as has been reported elsewhere, Bob The Pole is in a race seat for Williams next year.

It's official now. Let's see how 8 seasons without racing in F1 will make a difference to his obvious talent

Even somebody at his age with the past 8 seasons IN F1 would be in the twilight of their career!
However good luck to him. |

exactly - i think we're all pleased to see robert make a proper return but a bit disappointed it's at the cost of younger and arguably better drivers.
