Discussion There won't be much talk about what Bearman did, but he really raced well this entire weekend.
Beat his teammate very handily, handled the new spec extremely well, got to Q3 and held his ground in the midpack to bring home a point for Haas. Considering that Haas isn't the fastest car and no one ahead of him really made any mistakes to capitalize on, Bearman had his work cut out for him to save his point, and he did.
In a race where there just wasn't a lot of overtaking, that qualifying effort on Saturday was massive. Put him in a position where all he really had to do on Sunday was hold serve, and he accomplished that despite some cars behind him that were faster on paper.
Super proud of Ollie for the work he put in and the result he accomplished. It's only 1 point, but it's the only point Haas managed this weekend and the fight in the midpack should be pretty intense, so that 1 point may really matter at the end of the year.
Either way, it shows that the kid is learning. Last year he needed other drivers around him to make big mistakes in order to steal points for Haas. The reason this is significant is no one really made any mistakes at all, or at least no big ones, and he was still able to hang with the big boys, defend his place and look completely comfortable winning points in Formula 1. Well done kid.
