I'm in agreement with Senna's opinion..."he was the best of the best"..Jim Clark.

I think of Sargeant but then it fades.

Why? There are a lot of good American drivers. The constant anti-American driver hate is pretty tiring.

I'm 'Merican as they come but get real, name one

Scott Speed and Logan Sargeant didn't work out too well

M5Rick · 11-29-2024, 03:31 PM

There's Michael Andretti ex F1 driver, he likes rock music but oh just forget that .

Looking over my back shoulder - but I'd hope GM might have a resource or two more than Haas....*

Maybe Herta or Crawford? I've watched a little bit of Herta, not so much Crawford..But he looks ok based on my limited knowledge..

Nah, I just can't buy into Herta and never heard of Crawford.

Hell, our cousins to the north and south; Perez, Stroll & Latifi even SUCK

Herta's name is frequently thrown out there as a potential F1 driver and I've never understood why. I think I've watched enough IndyCar races to form an opinion of him and I'm not terribly impressed. Beyond that, I don't think his F1 test from a year or two ago went all that well either. However, he is an Andretti driver and therefore will likely be one of the first offered up as a contender for a seat, assuming he gets that last Super License point he needs.

He will pull a Logan Sergeant and pile up a bunch of cars jumping from Indy Car to F1. Whole different animal and like you, I haven't seen anything impressive. He would have to dominate Indy Car before I'd even consider it.

Indy Car is where washed-up and never-been F1 pilots go to die.
