Formula 1 was supposed to be holding a bonus sprint race for junior drivers in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. Here’s our informed guess at what the line-up would’ve been
This week, we were supposed to witness a unique Formula 1 event where junior or inexperienced drivers replaced the regulars, thanks to Christian Horner’s idea. The concept was to run a sprint race during the post-season Abu Dhabi test, giving new drivers a chance to showcase their skills in a competitive environment. While the idea has been postponed, we can imagine the excitement of seeing fresh faces on the grid and the possibilities they bring. Imagining a realistic grid, we might have seen talents like Pato O’Ward and Ryo Hirakawa making their debut and possibly impressing fans with their skills. Despite some established names like Antonio Fuoco and Arthur Leclerc, the spotlight would have been on rising stars like Liam Lawson, Isack Hadjar, and Jake Dennis getting a taste of F1 action. The absence of familiar names like Kimi Antonelli or Frederik Vesti may have raised eyebrows, but this hypothetical scenario offered a glimpse into the potential future of the sport and the talent waiting to shine on the big stage.
