“Tough times ahead” tipped for one F1 driver whose debut was “devastating”
Intense glare from demanding F1 ♕bosses "a problem" for rookies

A difficult future has been predicted for two F1 drivers ꦕwho will come under the intense glare of their tough bosses.
The 2025 season-ไopening Australian Grand Prix saw several drivers caught o♔ut by the wet conditions.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Racing Bulls debutant 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Isack Hadjar crashed out at Turn 2 of the formation lap, and was consoled by Lewis Hamilton’s father Anthony as heꩲ🀅 trudged back to the garage.
Alpine’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Doohan also lost control of his car at his hom🥀e grand prix in the challenging weather.
But for Hadjar, his tears were a stark reminde💛r of th💯e price that drivers pay to reach the top.
“I don’t think we can even imagine,” Bernie Coll𒉰ins told the Sky F1 podcast.
“This guy has worked🐷 his entire career t🥀o get an F1 seat.
“Everything has been for this moment, to get that drive, to get his first race in F1. And he didꦉn’t even make it to the start.
“That has got to be devastating.
“He was stellar untဣil then. He showed that he was a good driver, he was one of the best in qualifying.
“It must be gutting. Thank 𒁃goodness he has a race next weekend to pick himself up. People will forget quickly.
“He was saved a little bit by Carlos Sainz and Fernando Alonso going off. Th🔯at showed how tricky the conditions were, to lose someone of Alonso’s experience.
“He was saved a bit by not being the only driver who ꦐdidn’t make it.”
Tough F1 bosses 'the problem' for rookie drivers
Hadjar was criticised by Red Bull’s Helmut Marko for ♊his tearful reaction to crashing o♛ut before the race even began.
Red Bull are notorious for their impatience with drivers - Hadjar’s chance in F1 came after Sergio Perez𒊎 was axed from their main team.
Doohan’s first F1 retirement came amid intense speculation that A🦩lpine plan to ditch him an꧙yway.
He is only two r🌱aces into his F1 career but Alpine’s acquisition of Franco Colapinto gives them a talented option waiting in reserve.
“It’s really unfortunate,” Ted Kravitz noted.
“Both Hadjar and Doohan have hard🦂 taskmaster bosses, in Helmut Marko - who called Hadjar’s emotional reaction “embarrassing🍷” - and Flavio Briatore.
“For Doohan to crash out will only harden Flavio’s reacti𝐆on towards him.
“That’s the problem - these two hard taskmasters, old-school Fo🐽rmula 1 hard men.
“If you are Hadjar and Doohan respectiv🌃ely, it means tough times ahead.”
Botℱh drivers have an immediate opportunity to respond.
The F1 Chinese Grand Prix, ꦚthe seco𝐆nd round of the 2025 season, is this weekend.
The spotlight on Hadjar and Doohan may be even brighter as they attempt to get rid of m🅘emories from Au⛦stralia.
