It really starts to feel like Checo is a glorified seat warmer for Ricci.
Checo has these moments of brilliance, and usually under the biggest pressure. But he just doesn’t have the consistency he needs to be WDC. I know that the comparison is a tall one, but being partnered with a guy like Max who’s at his peak really highlights all of Checo’s flaws.
If Checo was the lead driver and Max wasn’t in the game, I think Checo could take WDC this year, but it would be a hard fought win, nothing like this run away dominance we’re seeing with Max.
