[sedicisantidote]

I will NEVER shut up about how charles is not only one of the fastest drivers ever be it quali or race, but he is also one of the most intelligent drivers, like this is all just 3d chess for him, he can gauge his opponents car placements, think of his moves one-two laps ahead, and figure out others' strategies and come up with a plan instantly

Like we saw today, he guessed what fernando was doing, managed his tyres accordingly because he knew fernando was going to push at the end, never let him get close enough, all of which resulted in him being on the podium, in a car with worse tyre degradation and against one of the best drivers.

He is just so brilliant and like i get it, he's a bit of no thoughts head empty guy sometimes off track but he is NOT an idiot!! he is so underrated it makes my head hurt sometimes.

He is a fucking mastermind and a genius, he can react to challenges as they happen on the spot without losing time, you can't learn that, you either have it or you don't and he has it in spades!!

some other examples include (2017 bahrain sprint - he was thinking of what he was gonna do in two laps time while doing overtakes and then pulling off the later overtakes exactly how he planned, bahrain 2022- he read max and his moves like a nursery poem and had back up strategies planned in case max tried something different, jeddah 2022 - he would have won the drs chicken game were it not for the late safety car ruining it, etc etc etc) (also sorry i have terrible memory and am too lazy to list other 738282 instances of his genius)

he's like if alain prost and ayrton senna had a lovechild kjsksn

Ex-Driver Profiles: Zhou Guanyu

Updated December 2024

Name: Zhou Guanyu

Age: 25

Nationality: Chinese

Years in F1: 3 (Alfa Romeo/Kick Sauber 2022-2024)

Number: 24

WDCs: N/A

Driving Style: Zhou is a precise and measured driver, often leaning away from aggressive styling. He seems to prefer for consistency over risk, and due to this has strong tire management. He also keeps his composure during races, a boon when fighting in the midfield. However, this cautious nature leads him to not often be able to fight with the more aggressive racers. He tends to hold his position for entire races, and does not do that much overtaking.

History:

Zhou was born to an extremely wealthy Chinese family, and started karting when he was 8 years old (2008). He won multiple local karting championships (including one named after him) and showed a talent for racing from a young age. In 2012 he moved to the Uk in order to get more involved with competitive karting. In 2013 he won both the Super 1 National Rotax Max Junior Championship and Rotax Max Euro Challenge, with standout performances that meant drawing more senior level attention. For his final year of karting, Zhou finished 2nd in the Rotax Max Senior Euro Challenge and participated in selected rounds of WSK Champions Cup and the KF2 European Championship, with middling results.

(Zhou during his karting days)

He debuted in F4 for the Italian F4 Championship. He had a fantastic year, and finished 2nd in the standings. This also meant he was the most successful rookie that year, and so he won the rookie championship. 2016 he joined F3, and finished 16th in the European Championship, a less than positive result. He stayed in F3 for 2017 and improved to 8th place. His last year in F3 was 2018, and it was the year he achieved his maiden F3 win. He would go on to win another race and gain 3 pole positions, but finish 8th in the standings once more.

(Zhou during Italian F4)

2019 Zhou graduated up to F2, and had a positive rookie year. He won one sprint race, and finished in high points often. He finished the season in 7th place as the highest ranked rookie. 2020 would be a similar year in F2, but he would end the year in 6th, a slightly better result. During the winter break before the start of the 2021 Formula 2 season, Zhou participated in the 2021 F3 Asian Championship and won the championship after achieving 4 wins and 11 podiums. 2021 was his best year in F2, and he would win 4 races and 9 podiums. He finished that season 3rd in the standings, his best results yet.

(Zhou on podium during F2 days)

Throughout all of this Zhou had been involved with the Ferrari Driver Academy (since 2014) and then the Renault Sports Academy (starting 2019) which allowed him to get his foot in the door in F1. After a successful final F2 season, late 2021 it was announced that he had been signed with F1 team Alfa Romeo to partner Valterri Bottas. Through this he became the first Chinese F1 driver in history. He had a negative first year with Alfa Romeo, experiencing several mechanical problems, and 8th was his highest finish. He ended the season 18th in the drivers championship.

(Zhou in his 2021 Alfa Romeo)

2023 was pretty much an identical year to 2022 for Zhou. He did have a few races where he achieved fastest lap, but his highest finish was 10th place. A more positive aspect to his year was that he qualified much better than 2022, making it up into Q3 a few times. His highest race start was 5th place. He ended the season with the same number of points and in the same position as the previous year. 2024 he was retained to the newly named Kick Sauber team, and so far it has been an even worse year for Zhou. He has not finished in the points yet so far (neither has his teammate). As of right now he does not have a seat for 2025.

Major Races:

2022 Bahrain GP - His debut race, Zhou pulled off a good performance by finishing the race in 10th place. A remarkable result for a rookie in one of the slowest cars on the grid.

2022 Canadian GP - Zhou's highest finish to date, his calm approach in wet-dry conditions allowed him a leg up over faster cars and let him get higher in the points than normal.

2024 Australian GP - While not a points finish, Zhou showed he could fight with drivers to establish a higher result. He navigated a rather chaotic midfield and avoided any trouble throughout the race.

2024 Canadian GP - This race was marred by the typical mechanical problems that Kick Sauber has been experiencing, but Zhou showed resilience and was able to work around any difficulties to finish the race.

Cheers,

-B

Bahrain. 2017.

The first time Max watches it, it's not out of his own volition. Daniel shoves his phone in Max's face after dinner on a race Sunday with a glint in his eye, urging him to watch some onboard from the Formula 2 sprint. 

"From P14 to P1 in 8 laps, mate." Daniel says, grinning as he waits for Max to take his phone, expectantly.

"It's just the sprint." Max says, not understanding why Daniel has all of a sudden taken an interest in Formula 2. He didn’t even care that much for Max – or Carlos – when they were in Toro Rosso, still doesn’t care about either Daniil now or Pierre, and it’s supposed to be their sister team. But here Daniel is, holding his phone out to Max, waiting for him to take it. After a couple more seconds of being on the receiving end of Daniel's encouraging stare, Max relents. "Who is it, anyway?" Max asks as he presses play.

The start is nothing to write home about. Whoever put together the onboard video agrees, because it jumps to lap 14 after the start.

"Prema rookie.” Daniel answers. Max looks up, frowning a bit at Daniel’s tone. But then Daniel adds, “Jules knew him”, and that's when it clicks. Max understands. And he knows who he’s talking about. “I think his name’s Leclair?" 

"Leclerc." Max corrects him, gaze now focused on the screen as he watches his karting nemesis pit for softs and knows the comeback Daniel gushed about is about to start. It's a compilation, obviously half the turns being cut out – probably for effect and to make it seem even more impressive –, but Max knows even the best editing can't change a narrative if the backdrop of it didn't have the material to make this comeback meteoric. The end result is the same. The overtakes keep coming, and coming, and now Max can’t look away. It’s weird, watching it just from the onboard camera. He doesn’t even know how Daniel got access to this footage. Max didn’t even know F2 had onboard cameras fitted this year.

THE CROWNING OF THE PADDOCK PRINCESS.

Take a look through her journey towards the pinnacle of motorsports. Why don't we count her achievements together?

I. KARTING TO FORMULA 4

Griffiths took up karting at the age of 8 in 2009 in West Wales before she progressed to the cadet class in 2012, becoming the MSA British Champion and British Open Champion. In 2013, she moved to the Rotax Mini Max category before she soon graduated to the KF3 class in 2014, where she earned the SKUSA Supernationals title and became the CIK-FIA European Champion, which she successfully defended in 2015. In her final year of karting in 2016, she finished 3rd in the KF1 CIK-FIA World Championship.

In the beginning of 2017, Quinton moved on to compete in the BRDC Formula 4 under the TRS Arden Junior Racing Team, wherein she had a very close fight with fellow TRS Arden Junior Racing Team driver, Oscar Piastri, for the championship, and ultimately won the championship by 65.5 points. At the end of her rookie season, Griffiths won the Autosport BRDC Award while also earning the privilege to test Formula 2, DTM, and GT3 cars. At the young age of 16, she had become the youngest-ever winner of the award following the previous achievements of fellow driver George Russell who was 17 at the time of awarding. Afterwards, she was selected for the BRDC’s Superstars Junior Driver mentorship programme, where she had once again become the youngest-ever selection.

II. FIA FORMULA 3

Although Griffiths was rumored to spend the entirety of 2018 competing for Arden International, her BRDC award had given her the privilege to skip directly to the European Formula 3, wherein she debuted as part of Prema Theodore Racing, alongside Guanyu Zhou and Ralf Aron. She made her debut in Circuit de Pau-Ville, where she finished 1st in the Drivers’ Championship with 365 points – her best finishes being first in Round 3 at Spa-Francorchamps, Round 2 at Silverstone, Round 1 at the Misano World Circuit, and a total sweep in Nurburgring. She continued her streak up until the second round of the season at Red Bull Ring. She finished ahead of her teammates, which ultimately helped Prema secure their Team Championship the very same year.

III. FIA FORMULA 2 (2019 - 2020)

Griffiths moved up to Formula 2, wherein she was signed to DAMS and set to race alongside Nicholas Latifi. She would end the season, finishing 4th behind Luca Ghiotto and short of 62 points for the championship. With her and Latifis place in the championship standings, they were able to secure DAMS their team championship for the year.

However, in the sprint race in Monza following a double rear collision with Ghiotto, Griffiths suffered a rear right puncture on her car after Ghiotto misjudged his braking for Turn 1 that led to a collision with de Vries, simultaneously hitting Griffiths. Going into Variante della Roggia, her car lost control and violently smashed on the safety barriers. Unfortunately, due to the sheer impact at the speed she was going, Griffiths suffered a break in her fifth metacarpal on her right hand which gave her about 3 to 6 weeks to fully heal.

Griffiths would unfortunately depart from DAMS the following year and temporarily resign from professional racing due to her aforementioned injury – with the rigorous training she had been subjected to before the beginning of the 2020 season, too much strain was put into her injury which only worsened her condition, hence her temporary departure from the sport.

IV. FIA FORMULA 2 (2021 - 2023)

Griffiths made her awaited comeback on the track in 2021 with her previous team DAMS, racing alongside Guilherme Samaia and Roy Nissany. However, on her comeback race in Bahrain, Griffiths experienced a major power loss which caused her retirement from the first Sprint Race of the season. Her misfortune soon followed after in the second Sprint Race wherein she climbed to 6th place by the 13th lap, but was unfortunately dropped to 10th after a safety car was deployed and rivals with fresher tyres passed her. Griffiths ended the 2021 season 13th in the Drivers’ Championship and 8th in the Teams’ Championship.

The following season in 2022, Griffiths was set to race for DAMS alongside Roy Nissany once again with high hopes to come back from the arguably worst season she has ever had in her career. Her steady positions within the points led to her finishing 5th in the overall Drivers’ championship, beating her teammate by a huge 121 points in the final standings. At the end of the season, however, it was announced that Griffiths would once again depart from DAMS and join ART Grand Prix in the 2023 season, joining Victor Martins. 

Her unexpected move to ART Grand Prix was exactly what she needed to start the season on the right foot, finishing 5th and setting the fastest lap in the Bahrain Sprint Race in 2023 and 1st in the Feature Race, while also starting from pole position. Throughout the entire season, Griffiths consistently finished within the points, rarely ever getting arguably terrible results which led to her winning the Drivers’ Championship for Formula 2 in 2023 with 203 points and an 11-point gap to rival Frederik Vesti. ART Grand Prix also went on to finish 1st in the Teams’ Championships with the efforts of both Griffiths and Martins, who finished 5th in the Drivers’ Championship.

V. FIA FORMULA 1

Throughout her achievements in the 2023 season and given her performance all throughout her career, Griffiths was offered a chance to test for Scuderia Ferrari back in Fiorano to be part of the 2024 grid. Despite performing well, she was offered nothing more than a reserved driver role — one she thought would not suit her, hence the spot being given to Arthur Leclerc and Oliver Bearman. Griffiths respectfully declined further negotiations from Ferrari, believing that the Scuderia did not have enough faith in her talent to offer her a much more enticing position in the team.

At the end of the 2023 season in December, Griffiths was once again invited to test in Abu Dhabi at the Yas Marina Circuit, this time for the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team, alongside fellow driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli. Despite performing with little to no mistakes, she fell short compared to Antonelli’s results in terms of pace and ultimately, did not secure a seat for herself — one that Antonelli secured the following season, to be able to race in 2025 for the aforementioned team. 

It was in January of 2024 when Griffiths received a call from Oracle Red Bull Racing and their Team Principal, Richard Martin, offering her an opportunity to test for the senior team directly in Silverstone. Clawing for a seat in Formula 1, Griffiths made quite the first impression for herself, finishing just fifth-hundreths of a second behind 4-time Drivers’ Champion Max Verstappen. Martin was incredibly impressed by the performance shown by the rookie, offering her another reserve driver role for the 2024 season. However, in her contract, a condition set by the team was that her role would put her at the forefront of consideration should a driver be taken out of Oracle Red Bull Racing. 

Griffiths sat in the shadows of this news throughout the 2024 season, waiting to hear from Red Bull once again but after not receiving a call from them until the Qatar Grand Prix, she slowly started to lose hope. It wasn't until the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix that she received a call to test for them one more time at the Yas Marina Circuit, alongside VISA Cash App RB driver Yuki Tsunoda. This time, Griffiths was determined to learn from her mistakes during her test drive in Mercedes the previous year. 

Griffiths ran a lap time actually ahead of Verstappen's performance in 2024, which would have placed her in P5. She would finish a half a second behind Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton, which only further solidified Oracle Red Bull Racing's decision on choosing Griffiths to be their second driver for the 2025 season. This news was announced to the general public last 23rd of December, 2024 via the official social media platforms of Oracle Red Bull Racing, following the departure of Sergio Perez from the team. Since then, Griffiths has been continuously preparing for her upcoming season with Red Bull with the expectations of fans worldwide hanging on her shoulders.

FACTS AND STATS: A first front row in Baku for Verstappen but the wait for a Red Bull pole here continues

Friday qualifying yielded plenty of drama, with Charles Leclerc grabbing a first pole position of the season for Ferrari despite stiff competition from the Red Bull drivers. That was only half the story though, with two red flags disrupting proceedings in Q1 as both Nyck de Vries and Pierre Gasly came a cropper at Turn 3. Here are all the best facts and stats from a very busy Friday in Baku… Leclerc made it three consecutive poles at a venue for the first time in his F1 career. The Ferrari man has led one lap in each of his last two starts from pole here. Max Verstappen was second, and while Red Bull have never taken pole here, Ferrari have never won at this track. READ MORE: Leclerc beats Verstappen in qualifying thriller for third straight Azerbaijan GP pole It is the Dutchman’s first ever front row start in Azerbaijan. Sergio Perez made it two Bulls in the top three for the first time since Bahrain. Third is where Verstappen won the race from in 2022. Leclerc might have started on pole here twice - but he has yet to win in Baku Carlos Sainz was fourth, meaning that the grid order is Ferrari, Red Bull, Red Bull, Ferrari for the second straight year. Lewis Hamilton’s P5 means he outqualified George Russell for the first time this year. Hamilton has only ever won from fifth once in his career – in Singapore in 2017. Fernando Alonso was sixth in his worst qualifying of the year. FORMULA WHY: What makes F1 Sprint weekends harder – your questions answered in our new podcast Lando Norris managed seventh for his first Q3 appearance of the season. Yuki Tsunoda was eighth, in not just his, but also his team’s, first Q3 showing. The AlphaTauri man has never qualified lower than eighth in Baku in three appearances. Lance Stroll was ninth, for his highest start in Baku since 2017, when he finished on the podium. Oscar Piastri in P10 set an identical time to the Canadian. It did mean that both McLarens made Q3 for the first time this season. Russell was 11th, missing out on Q3 by just 0.004s. Tsunoda made Q3 for the first time this season Alex Albon’s P13 was the best qualifying for Williams in Baku since 2018. Valtteri Bottas was 14th leaving Alfa Romeo as the only team without a Q3 appearance in 2023. Logan Sargeant became the first American to reach Q2 since Scott Speed at Silverstone in 2007. This was the first time Williams managed to get both cars into Q2 since Russia 2021. WATCH: Nyck de Vries and Pierre Gasly crash out of Azerbaijan Grand Prix qualifying Zhou Guanyu missed out on Q2 by just 0.020s. Both Haas cars went out in Q1 for the first time since Austin last year. Kevin Magnussen was outqualified by a team mate here for the first time in his sixth visit. Pierre Gasly missed out in Q1 as he did in Bahrain. Nyck de Vries suffered his third Q1 elimination in four races. The Dutchman’s accident was identical to his team mate’s from qualifying here in 2021. via Formula 1 News https://www.formula1.com
