AT has their own sim? It’s not his first new car, he’ll be fine. I really hope Yuki outperforms him for lols but expecting Dan to pretty quickly expose Yuki who will start making regular mistakes again trying to keep up. More frantic Yuki radio in our future at least.

they should let Yuki and Dan get pissed at each other on the radio and make it a dedicated f1tv feed

Perhaps it is Yuki who will expose Dan...

I think Yuki and Danny will bond over their love of juvenile humor. It’s going to be all nutsacks, scrotums, farts and poos.

We know he was fitted for a seat in the car earlier in the year, ostensibly in his role as reserve for both Red Bull and AT. As far as is reported he's not done any time in the AT simulator that we've heard of, I guess one question would be is if they are able to setup the Red Bull simulator for the AT if he's been doing any work in that instead of all the time he's apparently been doing on the actual RB sim.

Marko was quoted at saying that they've had Dan, Yuki and De Vries driving in the simulator (assuming this is the AT simulator being talked about) and Dan was beating them both. Whether the AT sim is anywhere close to correlating with their actual car is another matter, from the improvement Merc made between Friday and Saturday at Silverstone we assume their works pretty well.

Dan just needs to do well enough to not get dropped, if he's out of the car next season then that's his career done I think.

I'd say give Van Gisbergen Checo's seat (he's already with RBR) but would he even fit in the car? He's huge compared to most F1 drivers. Like only a little taller than Ocon but 20kg heavier and broad shouldered. Can't imagine it would be comfortable.

He was pretty good in the red bull, although he was a clear number 2 to baby Max.

Despite what Khablam thinks, in terms of RBR results not back-room shenanigens this is up for debate

Dan was superior in the 2016 half-season they were paired, and was superior again in 2017. In 2018 Marko/Jos scheming made Max unofficial #1 which is reflected in Dan getting the test parts car, see 8 retirements vs Max's 3, the majority were car failures and by far the biggest number of retirements in the top 5. You cant even say Max was better when they both finished because the only time he won was when Dan retired, if you add up the points when they both completed races Dan still comes out on top.

Also, I've come to conclusion that I will like Max when he gets out from Redbull, and away from his dad.

On top of the abuse he did to "train" Max, Jos got a conviction and a restraining order from harassing and assaulting Max mother, also was charged with attempted murder of his next girlfriend. He really shouldn't be allowed in the paddock were this a real sport

There's some similarities to Michael Jackson and his father, who was also abusive to him. Michael still would attribute his success to how his father raised him, despite how traumatic it was. Could Max one day be considered F1's Michael Jackson?

The sense I get is that being Michael’s teammate kind of jokerfied the guy to the point where Max is ‘built’ to the Schumi blueprint almost more than Jos’ own.

Oh look, it's the when Dan does well it's because he's better when Max does well it's because *spins conspiracy wheel* DELIBERATE SABOTAGE AND I WILL HEAR NOTHING AGAINST THIS THEORY DESPITE IT MAKING LITERALLY NO SENSE TO DO IT FITS MY WORLD VIEW AND I WILL BELIEVE IT FOREVER

Real talk after Monaco RBR kicked Jos out of the paddock and Max immediately went from fast but wildly inconsistent to the consistent racer we see now. Dan was getting beaten all over the place in 2018, and often by large embarrassing margins that exposed his race craft.

Max won every head-to-head after monaco and in more than one of these he starts behind Dan.

Dan ran away.
