Sargeant, Zhou, Tsunoda and Ricciardo/Lawson are not confirmed for 2024 and could still be replaced.
If Yuki doesn’t have a seat next year I will riot.

Although I hear both teams are considering Drugovich since daddy Stroll won’t let anyone take Lance’s seat.
What about Pourchaire?
All due respect but Pourchaire is in no way as dominant as Drugovich was last season. I expect more from Victor Martins than from Théo Pourchaire. But it’s been a while since an F2 contender was considered for an F1 seat. Zhou and Sargeant are exceptions because the Formula 1 commerce organisation would love to get a greater US and Chinese audience. Piastri had to wait a full season and Nyck de Vries had to seek refuge in Formula E to even keep racing.

Unless he fucks up completely and repeatedly crashes out, Sargeant will keep his seat. James Vowles said that the plan was always to have Sargeant racing in 2024 and the reason he’s racing this season is they had an opening and thought it was better to give him a “practice” year in F1 than another year in F2
Kicking a driver out because they didn’t do well in their rookie season always sounds like the kind of insane move that not even Helmut Marko would try
Not stopping a lot of stupid hot takes about it though.
Isn’t that what Sargent is already doing?
Having an American driver is probably good commercially I guess, but Albon has destroyed him.
Yeah, thats what I mean. That’s why it’s unlikely he’ll be replaced, even if he hasn’t formally re-signed yet.
