minus-squarejonne@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·1 year agoI think it’s because the reserve would need to qualify in order to be allowed to race. I read elsewhere that the reason is that Lance was physically affected by the crash. He’ll race in Japan tho.

minus-squareWhoRoger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoReserve driver only for the race who didn’t even have one practice session isn’t much use, they’d just smash into the wall anyway. Besides their reserve driver is Drugovich who never raced in Singapore, or they could borrow Mick Sch who crashed there a few times iirc.
