He's difficult to rate because he hasn't had any outstanding results. He's always seemed a safe pair of hands for points (apart from when in really high positions on occasion when something has always gone wrong, although he's had that happen through no fault of his own too). Apart from the rare greats and the poor by F1 standard drivers, so many are difficult to rate, so I can only give Haas the benefit of the doubt and say that they are right to put him alongside Magnussen. It's certainly not a Mazepin approach. For what it's worth, he also comes across as a decent guy.

In any case, going back to the point about decent drivers hard to categorise, even they can blow hot and cold. Look at Daniel Ricciardo at Red Bull and Daniel Ricciardo at McLaren.
