When doesn't Calderon have a nightmare? Only her and Schothorst have failed to score any points in Gp3 this year.

Alesi's been the surprise of the season taking 3 wins already. But I have to wonder if he's intentionally trying to get those sprint race front row starts. Signed with Ferrari anyway but he's obviously got eyes on him. Ferrari signed him in March and he looked slow last year being dominated by Fuoco so evidence his name is still very important and Ferrari are hoping he turns out like his dad. Because you wouldn't have signed him based on his 2016 performance. Mick is probably being watched closely too.

Who else looks any good? It appears Russell is the only guy with F1 potential in Gp3 now.

Anyone elsewhere? Lando Norris is future F1 material but after him it could be a few years of steady drivers in F1 as guys like Leclerc, Giovinazzi, Gasly are tested out. No room for Russell or Norris yet. Sometimes I wish F1 had an extra 10 seats. Guys like Rossi, Rowland, Rosenqvist, Gio, Sirotkin would probably all be in F1. Kyvat and Wehrlein wouldn't be losing a seat.

Its Calderon's 7th season in F3/GP3 with only 3 podiums. And even they were in like the Euroformula Winter races and when British F3 only had 4 races in a year.

You're not allowed to mention facts about her because she is a female and twitter wont like it, or something.

And Verstappen ... he was also only picked up half way in his F3 season.

Luckily for him, a number of drivers that were dropped by Red Bull still had impressive careers afterwards - and some relative success for others.
It won't make it easier, but still can be done.

If I was Ferrari I wouldn't sign him based on who his Dad was either: Five years and he got one win, and never finished higher than fifth in the championship.

I wonder if GP3 might make up that postponed race at the next round which is the stand alone Jerez weekend

Some incredibly amateur driving in that race. I'd say just about every lap someone would have gone straight on at the first chicane. Cars following far too closely out of desperation of making something happen. Made for a very exciting race though. Russell does it again despite 2 team mates behind him with DRS.

Tinktum was about to move up to 4th before his incident.... that's a decent debut.

I don't think Helmut Marko agrees with you. Not a spawny outcome for him.

Marko's an idiot and impatient. Anything less than Verstappen is now insufficient for him.

Ticktum shouldn't be in GP3 yet, more seat time can be had in the NEC events. Eurocup is a much stronger series than it was last year, nothing wrong with finishing P6 out of 30 as a rookie.
