It’s not even that they’re hybrids though. There’s 40 Sportage HEV/PHEVs available in 25 miles around me. Only 3 are Prestige trim and they’re all shipping/spoken for. The other 37 are lower trims just sitting on the lot and have been all month.

In a clean race, that RB should be on the podium every time. Less than that is subpar.

Hope so. Lando has put in the work and deserves to drive a car capable of winning.

Mid West US. What sucks the most is there are tons of LX and EX Sportages sitting on lots unwanted. But Kia just isn’t shipping out many Prestige Versions.

Yep, demand has cratered as a result of inflation in other areas and high inflation rates. Watch what happens when student loan payments return.

Some mods may be concerned about losing their mod status if they go to Lemmy.

Cox reports on the Mannheim Index so the sources are the same.

Agreed. A seat is better than no seat. But yea he’s definitely going to have to prove himself again.

Latifi and Mazepin were both pay drivers. Likely, sponsors and money were tied to their seats.

Good point. They swapped Gasly with Albon mid-season and that could have gone better. I’d still like to see Lawson get his shot at some point.

Tough call. The return of Danny Ric would make for great TV but deep down I think Lawson should get his shot.

Tough for Nyck but F1 is a ruthless sport. At 28, Nyck is a seasoned driver and has likely shown what he is capable of and is unlikely to develop much further. I don’t see a reason for keeping him in that seat any longer.
