Ant Davidson is brilliant. Humble, a superb and professional communicator. Really interesting podcast.
Ant's analytical mind must be a huge bonus from a sim driver. I imagine he can give a more in depth insight than the rookies and reserves
I coach formula drivers on the sim and highly recommend more drivers spend time with coaches to learn the craft and study further
Always enjoy listening to Ant. Met him once, at Oz GP, he's a really nice guy
Does he know who is in Lewis seat next year
Another skyf1 employee spouting the “ unbiased “ line. I feel like they forgot they have cameras pointing at them and we all can literally see them. I’m English and find it really unfair the way they treat others with their British bias. Although I am looking forward to the comedy show next season when they will suddenly be speaking incredibly highly of Ferrari
For those not familiar with Ants skills I suggest you look at other material about him. He’s a very very smart guy and has incredible car knowledge. Very detailed oriented. Look at what the sim operators say about him. Total praise for his extremely precise ability to know what’s going on with a car re set up etc.
Oh, and v humble too. Top drawer.
Ants comments always worth listening to !
As for the the " young hopefuls , "how about putting them all into last years F1 cars for a Friday sprint race ? That would preserve this years F1 cars for their usual pilots but give them a chance to shine , ( or not ! )
They could also drive different teams cars each time maybe ?🤔
Anthony is such an asset to the Sky team, he always comes out with great insight.
We really need more teams in F1 andretti ect and maybe give young drivers in a P1 session up to 8 weekends per year
13:28 In F1 everyone goes against the clock. It's just – at the moment – Max Verstappen does it the best. Because he knows all the factors to be the fastest and RBR has the experience to help him.
(The root cause of being the fastest in F1)
Are you sure you’re unbiased Ant ?? I definitely remember you saying Mercedes was the 2nd quickest car during winter testing.
If I hear about bear guy again I will go insane
Lewis doesn't use the sim, he thinks he's above that. Just another reason why George is making him look like an amatuer this season
Anthony Davidson is such a good pundit. He really articulates his insights well to the viewer.
Also, he still looks about 15! 😂
He was a good driver was Ant. I remember when he was reserve driver for BAR he was often as fast as Jenson just never really got a fair shot. I’ve always said you can show your skill in a poor car but Ant had dreadful cars. The Super Aguri was absolutely awful.
No no no… don't pamper rookies.
It may sound harsh but I don't want "ok" drivers.
I want a grid full of drivers like Verstappen, Leclerc, Norris, Piastri etc.
Junior classes are where you scout the talent.
F1 should be the final exam.
Throwing buckets of money and time at drivers like Sargeant to see if he may or may not have it is just a waste.
Ooh Fewawwi fwiend,
Anthony is one of my favourite Sky F1 presenters
I think Ant is great & enjoy his commentary but he disagreed with all the other pundits choosing the pecking order during winter testing naming Mercedes as the 2nd quickest team . We can clearly see now they’re definitely not the 2nd quickest team . Maybe wishful thinking from him as he’s a Mercedes employee ?
