Time for a bump I think.
Early season form - Disappeared. Race Pace - Gone. Still OK in qualifying. The "upgrades" to the car seem to have done absolutely nothing for their race pace. Cant get the tyres into the right operating window it seems.
Drivers who have hit each other more often than not in recent races. Embarrassing radio spat with Magnussen. Grosjean still has no spacial awareness and even crashed in the pit lane.
Lead sponsor drops out with ridiculous online parting comments.
It certainly has been an eventful season so far. In the early rounds it looked like Haas would be in the running for 4th best team. Now it looks like Williams might be the only team that they will beat.
Ocon is the obvious choice if they wanted to replace one of their drivers, but he was often colliding with Perez when they were teammates. Problems obviously run deeper than the drivers, but having a pairing that do not collide with each other would at least be a step in the right direction.
