... Theo. Oh Theo. Winning the F2 Monaco Feature Race as a 17-old rookie is... Something.
It's starting to look like Pourchaire is the next big star to come into F1 after Russell and Leclerc. Which is going to be interesting since he's not part of any of the big driver academies but rather the Sauber academy which frankly, not all that many people even knew was a thing before Pourchaire. So he's basically waiting for Kimi to retire to grab that seat.
It's gonna be interesting to see how that'll pan out, because if he indeed joins F1 as a Sauber academy driver he could have all the big guys after him if he were to have a Leclerc type rookie season. Let's say things go well for him for the next 2 or 3 years, he could be a big player in the driver market.
I was thinking the first season in F2 would be for finding his feet. Those cars are difficult to get accustomed to. Especially since ART have a history of not really getting the most out of two cars. But no he's just gonna qualify on pole at Monaco by half a second and win the feature race. He probably would've already grabbed a podium in his very first start in Bahrain had his car not given up.
