Thats three weak team mates? Albon, Ric Gasly, ? Ric clearly not.. Max has proven itself. so not really a comparison.
Gasly and Albon win a lot in the junior classes
Bottas actually won a championship in a lower category, which Albon failed to do, but success in lower categories isn't very relevant as we know from case Stroll and others. Bottas has actually merits in F1 as well, destroying Massa at Williams. Albon shouldn't even belong in F1.
I maintained until yesterday that Bottas was just about good enough to keep his seat, but I changed my view about that now. However, anyone wanting Bottas to go and not acknowledging that Albon is at minimum as useless if not arguably more, is hypocritical.
This idea of not choosing the best second driver but the most complicit one or the one that pays most is destroying the competition in F1. Mercedes, Racing Point and Red Bull are all doing fans a disservice with their dumb choices and now it looks like the guy who just won a race is ending up without a seat due to this farce.
