☕ underrated drivers?

este!!!!!!!!!!!!! who is surprised...tbf i think its esp hard to be rated in the middest of midfield cars because u can't mr saturday or scrape ur way into the points and be lauded a hero and ur also not in the fight for regular podiums or a championship because the gap (esp last years holy shit) is just too big. so if we go off points este's literally done everything right...he's never not scored regular points (imagine being in ur rookie year and scoring points in every race except 2 and 1 was a dnf) 🥰👉🏼👈🏼

and if we go by teammates he's doomed by the narrative whether he beats them or not!!! like yes alonso had more dnf's this year but este has had more dnfs than his teammates the last three years and its crickets but ig his past three teammates have had mammoth fanbases too

also underrated in fic not to get hit w the rpf beam but the explosion of lance and fernando lit as soon as they were announced is sooo like i love to gatekeep esteban but then im also like is he not good enough. for you. and your ships. hm? he should be the main character in everything? all of the time?
