When has fairness ever happened in F1? It is all a factor of who you aligned yourself with.

Pourchaire was in the Sauber academy, Sauber academy is a mess, he pays the price. It has nothing to do with fairness or worth or who won what. How many F2 champions have never even sniffed an F1 seat?

From 2005 (when F2 was re-founded) to 2011, every F2 champion except Giorgo Pantano made it into F1. Valsecchi (2012) and Leimer (2013) didn't make it, but again from 2014 to 2021 every single champion made it into F1. Drugovich and Pourchaire not so far.
