## Resource

F1 driver sackings rarely start with the announcement... Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs F1 teams rarely announce a driver’s seat is in danger...let's talk about it! Pierre Gasly was publicly backed before Red Bull dropped him and Alex Albon was suddenly being asked to “retain” a seat he already had. Nyck de Vries had Daniel Ricciardo waiting in the wings...as you can tell, Red Bull gave me plenty of material! Suffice to say, drivers have to focus not only on their own performance...but who is readily available within the wider Formula One space.
