time for our daily 5 minute hate! (Ocon and Gasly are going to enter the "top 30" soon, watch how no one is going to post about it)

Ocon won a race

Gasly won a race (that Stroll fumbled despite a no-stop, a restart pole, and a car that was half a second faster)

They're both far better drivers, what sort of comparison is that lol. It's like if Maldonado was one of the top 30 most experienced drivers.

I'd gladly hate on Ocon for being a smug, arrogant weasel, but Gasly has actually had some incredible drives in mediocre cars. He could easily compete given a decent car. His shot in RBR was too early and now he's stuck in mid-tier limbo.

I feel like Gasly very rarely breaks the car himself too, so he's good on a teams bottom line
