So... I haven't used my tumblr account for things like this in a while, but I am forced (by myself) to write something, since here at least I have more characters than on Twitter.
I know Logan's situation isn't great, I would completely understand if Williams doesn't re-sign him, but I feel (and I like to believe even though it's not a very healthy defense mechanism) that Williams will, Logan was one, if not the biggest, academy project, I followed him in F3 when he fought the championship with Oscar, when he dragged that tractor in 2021 to points because he had been left without the possibility of moving up to F2 due to lack of financing, when he joined the Williams academy, perhaps his fourth place was not a big deal for some but he was a rookie who from one moment to the next another began to feel the pressure of reaching the points for the super license and moving up to F1 in the team that had given him the opportunity to follow his dream.
They promoted him before, at this moment if everything went as it should have been, I would have to be mentioning that Logan was going to be the only rookie next year and not fearing in case he loses his seat; but the reality is different, I know well about his mistakes, but I also know that he can do it better, but he has a lot of pressure currently, every day a different name comes out to take his seat, and now only his seat is the only one that does not have anyone confirmed, if I, who am just a fan, have my mind at least one couple of hours a day, I can't imagine his situation, he is just early 20s and he is already seeing how his dream in F1 is apparently ending, adding to the hate he receives on social media, I'm not saying that they love him, I don't love many drivers in F1, but I don't understand @'s reason to him or in Williams' answers.
Maybe it's just me, but I feel like he also has extra pressure in wanting to somehow repay Williams for everything they did for him, basically saving his career in 2021, giving him the opportunity, that others can only dream of by promoting him in their first season in F2, and he only sees how, race after race, his progress is sometimes overshadowed by errors.
He wants to give back to Williams and help the resurgence of the team, but I don't know how to help him to show him that there are people who support him even in bad times.
