zak brown is 100% using f1 as the "goal" to attract these drivers to sign with him as if there's nothing to win or fight for in indycar or FE and I find that disrespectful as someone who wants to "dominate" every racing series he signs up to
literally this, its sickening
first of all, he lures these young talented drivers in with the promise of an f1 ride, which there's only 1 that might be available if he breaks daniel's contract (and he has done this before so there is precendent for it to happen). second of all, he uses top tier motorsport series like indycar and fe as development series for his f1 team. third of all, once he signs all these drivers to the 'mclaren family of racing' with the promise of an f1 ride, he can't deliver to all of them so he sets up a culture of 'you dont perform to an unrealistic standard and you get the axe'. he's done this in indycar already (most notably with oliver askew after forcing him to race after his indy 500 concussion-inducing wreck) and he's poised to move his drivers between series on a whim if they fail to perform. the mclaren racing organization as a whole is a toxic place to be and i have no respect for them. i hope any driver who gets lured into this hellhole of an organization realizes they're throwing away their careers.
