MODERATORS
Because it's two completely different situations. Yes, Mick has the sympathy bonus because of his name BUT: One was a young driver cutted in the age of 23 after coming directly from F2 after winning it in the second season and showing that he's evolving. The other one is 28, won F2 in his third year (being older than Mick when he was cutted by Haas), didn't make it to F1 and didn't really shine in Formula E while getting lucky to win it 2021 with a randomized qualifying format and a shit show farce in Valencia.
I perfectly understand what you're saying, but one had 40 races to adjust and one only 10, and to have so much difference is reactionist at least. I just don't get the hype behind Ricciardo in 2023.
At least we agree on that. I don't get the hype about Riccardo either.
