  • There's plenty of quick drivers in F1 junior programs, and although they have a limited talent pool, Mercedes are no exception. In this video I'll be giving an overview on how Mercedes have treated their junior drivers in the past as well as speculating on where a couple of them could be in the future. Enjoy!

    Pascal was one of the best young drivers of the 2014-2017 period. It was so sad to see him lose his seat while Ericsson kept his

      @@f1guy447 he was a quick consistent driver that delivered in underpowered machinery and didn't get to shine because money was more important than talent.

    Daniel leaving destroyed Red Bull’s driver academy

    • @AlexTalksRacing
      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It definitely did, Red Bull couldn't give their juniors time to develop after that. They were all thrown in at the deep end.

    PASCAL is so underrated, Wish he took the seat in 2017

  • @CCF1channel

    Keeping on the same theme, would love to see a video on how and why the Red Bull driver program has been in complete shambles since Ricciardo left the team

    • @AlexTalksRacing
      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a great idea! Since Ricciardo they've just thrown their juniors in at the deep end and like you said have been a mess ever since.

      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm definitely thinking about doing a video on one of those academies in the future!

    lewis and russel should be a teammate partner in 2022, i want merc like a lewis and nico era their fighting each other

    • @AlexTalksRacing
      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would love to see a teammate battle, but from Mercedes' perspective if they're winning with a clear number 1/number 2 lineup then why would you change it?

    It was really sad to see Pascal leave f1 and Marcus stay

    • @suncaratz9694
      @suncaratz9694 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea it is nowadays its money over talent like how Mazepin got a seat over Callum

    • @AlexTalksRacing
      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I liked Marcus but Pascal had more natural talent. I don't blame Sauber though the fault lies with Mercedes.

    They do seem to focus on one guy dont they...

    • @AlexTalksRacing
      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They definitely have limited options. Without Vesti they only have a couple of drivers under 18 that won't be near F1 in the near future.

    Agree about Pascal but he did make some silly mistakes towards the end of his f1 career tho

    • @AlexTalksRacing
      @AlexTalksRacing  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree, but he was only in his second season of F1 and was still really young at the time
