'Colapinto is doing in Argentina what Verstappen did in the Netherlands'

Things in motorsport can happen quickly: On Monday, Franco Colapinto drove his virtual laps in the simulator of his Formula 2 team, MP Motorsport, in Westmaas – just south of Rotterdam. A day later, the Argentine was promoted as Williams’ new F1 driver, replacing Logan Sargeant. Sander Dorsman – his former team boss at MP Motorsport – is convinced that Colapinto will succeed at Williams: “He has the winner’s mentality you look for in a driver.”
