Even if there is no guaranteed place for the next campaign, this seems strong for very important flyers, even if Franco Colapinto He is aware that he must continue to do what he did during his first races at the Grand Cirque.
And it seems like he has the mentality for it, because he had to go through a process in which he went from seeing drivers like Fernando Alonso either Lewis Hamilton competing for world titles fight them directly: “Every driver's dream is to reach Formula 1, and that's why I worked so long. I have more dreams, but, when you arrive, you want more, I arrived © and I wanted to score points, what's next, make a podium?”

“I saw Alonso racing against Hamilton, fighting for championships and all that, and so me racing against him is a shock, but when you put your helmet visor down, everyone is the same.” , he declared. “That amateur point that you had as a kid is gone, you want to beat everyone, and that non-conformism comes to say that it doesn't matter who's next to you, like if I have Verstappen or Zhou, it's is that” I If you want to beat them and stay in front of them, as long as it is within the limits of the possible, this moment of idols or heroes goes away, you respect them a little less, because if they continue to be one, it's very complicated.
