Oliver Bearman has become the talk of the town since the recent race in Saudi Arabia. Fred Vasseur and Oliver Bearman had a fantastic weekend, with Bearman securing a well-deserved seventh place in his car. There were rumors circulating in the paddock about Bearman’s future with the team after Hamilton’s departure, but Ferrari team director [name] dismissed those rumors.
Bearman replaced an injured driver in the Saudi Arabia GP and exceeded expectations with a brilliant performance. In response to the speculation surrounding Bearman and Hamilton, Vasseur spoke out, emphasizing that these rumors are about the distant future and that Hamilton has not even joined the team yet. However, it seems that Ferrari may face some challenges, as Bearman is a promising talent and they currently have two seats occupied by top drivers.
There is a possibility of a situation similar to the Alpine-Oscar Piastri partnership emerging in Maranello, but only time will tell how this partnership at Scuderia will unfold. Bearman was the center of attention at the Saudi Arabia GP and received praise from other drivers for his impressive performance. However, he admitted to feeling exhausted and physically drained after the demanding race.
Although Bearman was happy with his seventh place, he struggled towards the end of the Grand Prix due to the high G-forces experienced in an F1 car. Additionally, his headrest suffered some damage. Despite this, the 18-year-old is determined to excel in the F2 category this year and is considered one of the top contenders for the title.
