And , team Willy has Lance , who isn't a rookie any more , starting in the most complicated series , in the most complicated car , on the trickiest tires yet , going into his second year much more confidently .
That's good , isn't it ?

And , Sirotkin showed well enough in testing to make his cash usable , and so they have two young , hungry drivers .
So , that's good , too , isn't it ?

And , then we come to Kubica , who should be ready and able to sub in , should it be needed , but , more importantly , should provide good mentoring to the young lads , along with his set-up skills .
Stability and calmness in the debrief room could be essential with the young pairing .
So , there it is , good , too , so team Willy doesn't seem to be really in such dire straights after all , does it ?

The bagwan's crystal ball sees Willy running over False India this year , so be ready for the shock , y'all .
I wonder how much of that money would be spent on repairing driver error crashes. Force India have a better driver lineup. I would be surprised if they can bother Force India. I see them drifting further down the grid to about 7th or 8th if Sauber with a 2018 Ferrari engine recover their mojo and Ericsson drive as well as he did in 2017. Stroll is still wet around the ears. Williams may well be doing battle with Torro Ross at the back of the grid. Besides the big boys, I think Redbull, Mclaren, Renault and Force India would be ahead of them.
