Brown’s comments come after Herta failed to land the second AlphaTauri seat for 2023 due to not having en⛦ou🍰gh points to acquire a superlicence to race in F1.

Despite Herta’🍨s ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚsuccess in IndyCar over recent seasons, he currently falls short.

Herta has 32 points, with 40 the ⛄required꧅ total to secure a superlicence.

“I get tha🤪t rules are what rules are and they shouldn’t be broken, but I question♑ whether just because those are the rules that in place now, those are the correct rules,” Brown said.

“Someone of Colton’s or Pato’s [O’Ward] Calibre or half of the ‘IndyCar’ field are Formula 1 capable. If someone like Colton who’s won♚ a lot of IndyCar races isn’t eligible for a superlicence, then I think we need to review the superlicence system.”

B⭕rown cited the examples of Max Verstappen and Kimi Raikkonen, and the fact that both drivers wouldn’t have qualified for a superlicence un𝔉der the current regulations.

Verstappen ꧙made his F1 debut at just 17, despite his limited single-seater experience.

Whꦺile Raikkonen drove for Sauber in 2001 with just 23 car races to his name beꦫforehand.

“I don’t thi𒐪nk Max Verstappen would have been eligible for a Super License, I don’t think Kimi Raikonnen would have been eligible for a superlicence,” Brown🎃 explained.

“If you🧸 go back and look, there are a couple of guys, world champions who wouldn’t have got their superlicense in today’s environment.”

He added: “I would not rule Colton out but anything we do is going to be in the best interest of McLaren as opposed to helping out AlphaTauri," Brown ad🌟ded.

"Who we put in depends on track knowled🧸ge. Obviously, Pato in Mexico is a scenario."
