If Checo fucks up next race, they're gotta boot him out of the seat for a race and stick Dany into it, and then keep Lawson at AT.

Checo can't keep fucking up like this, Lewis is 30 points from P2.

After Japanese GP.
Max 400
Checo 223
Lew 190
Fernie 174

So long as Checo finishes second in championship he'll hang on for another year at RBR.

Once again , Checo f@cked it completely up !
Checo wasn't able to overtake a Williams car (Kmag) with his RB19 and he locked completely up with a beginners mistake !
WTF ?!?!

Even in another team . They would kick Checo's A$$ out of the team !
I would be really surprised if Red Bull keeps him for the 2024 season !

Checo's eternal wait in the box looked like the worst bad Red Bull commercial ever !
The Internet comments are not pretty for the Mexican !

Checo's mission now is not to let LEW catch up and I think he'll be alright for the remaining GP's...hopefully (I say with baited breath

Checo feels now LEW's breath on his neck !
This means more pressure . And Checo always fails under pressure ...

Too bad . It isn't looking good for the Mexican !

Cameraman a bit tongue twisted there with the tires, red or yellow? as Checo sits there looking forlorn but hopefully in the next one he'll be tracking Max to crack the bubbly open

Yeah . MAX ran out of Charlie's sight , that in combination with #FerrariThings as usual !
So , I wasn't surprised by Charlie's confusion .
Who wouldn't be confused with these Italians ? Oh boy , what a mess. And Forza Amore..

Pole, (by .581 sec) the largest gap in Japan since Barrichello 20 years ago) win and FL, it doesn't get better and also his tigress to greet him in his exec jet back to Monaco.

Ferrari? Over to you Fred.

They can't. Checo is there for P2 in the WDC.
Removing him this year, even for 1 race will hinder that.

But for sure next year his seat is in danger.
If there was no Max, you'd think the RB19 was a crap car, or at least 'average' (no better than the merc, ferrari, mclaren or AMR)

They say the RB19 is tuned to Max' preferences, but even if that were true, it wouldn't be 0,7sec+ is qualifying.
Other teams also have different drivers, which each have their preference, so there it's the same issue. But in qualifying, there the difference between drivers is max. 0,3 sec, and usually a lot less (the difference between NOR and PIA was only 0,04sec).

Given the performance of the car in Max' hands, given the mediocre performance of Checo last year, and this year again, if Checo has a seat next year at RB, I think RB takes a huge risk.
Other teams are catching up to the RB19 performance, so an underachieving driver is no guarantee for succes.

The difference in points between Max and Checo is just as much as the difference in points between Checo and Gasly, who is currently 11th in the WDC....

I agree Checo should be much higher up but at the start it was murder for him and indeed not doing well in quali he suffered with being hit then reacting the wrong way and with that compounding to make his car undrivable later on with another incident with a Haas.
