The Dutch rumors are no rumors . Just facts ...
Checo disappoints in all the QF's and races .
If that is not enough , (so far in this season)! Checo crashed a huge $4.5Million hole in the Red Bull budget cap (!)
It's no secret that Checo has bought his own RB20 seat ...
It's like the Red Bull Team has only 'one driver.

Going nowhere.

Pressure will still be high. It was high this past weekend too though, he's got a huge fan base in the US.



I still think his performance will be similar... worst of the best. I'd love to see him higher up, but feel like it's unlikely right now. He doesn't seem to have the same feel of the car as he did a year and a half ago.

Edit: I honestly think Checo is just trying to drive too conservatively to avoid a crash. He's stuck behind people who he's clearly faster than for way too many laps, just over-cooking his tires.

From time to time, at night, a couple of wolves howl in the Prague (Czech Republic) whereabouts during some 'Grand Theft Auto' style escapade on public roads.

I'm just joking around because I just relate you to saying papaya a lot..nothing offensive or anything like that mate

But Max did defend his position well, kudos

The only thing that looks remotely right is his dads' remotely delusional comment unless 'he' means Max, so far.

Checo would be looking to do well in this home race this time after his early exit last year. I hope he delivers a good performance this Sunday in front of his home crowd.
