Sean KennedyHOST
McLaren is a shout as well, yeah.
Sean KennedyHOST
And they've already, they've obviously just kicked out Leo Fornaroli, effectively, from having a shot at F1.
Sean KennedyHOST
And they dropped Alex Dunne, or they'd lost Alex Dunne.
Sean KennedyHOST
They dropped Ugo Gachukwu there.
Burke DavisHOST
Signs went off into the grass around turn one.
Burke DavisHOST
Fornaroli went off at T1.
Burke DavisHOST
At the 13-minute mark, Crawford's on the side of the road.
Burke DavisHOST
There's a virtual safety car.
Matt GallagherHOST
In for Verstappen.
Matt GallagherHOST
McLaren, Fornaroli.
Matt GallagherHOST
In for Norris.
Matt GallagherHOST
Racing Bulls, Solov.
KathrynHOST
He finished P15.
KathrynHOST
So that means he finished ahead of A couple of full-time race drivers, Carlos Sainz in a bad Williams, the McLaren rookie driver, Leonardo Fornaroli, Sergio Perez in the very slow Cadillac, Aston Martin sub Jack Crawford and Lance Stroll's very slow car, Williams sub Luke Browning and Alex Albon's very slow Williams, Audi sub Freddie Slater, who had a nightmare of a day, but at least got a couple times laps in, and then Cadillac sub Colton Hertha, who we have so much to talk about with Colton Hertha that we will do that after Mexico City.
KathrynHOST
And then today in FP3, he did 31 laps, probably more of a race pace focused effort rather than the qualifying speed.
KathrynHOST
He finished, I think, P18.
KathrynHOST
Also adding to the challenges is we have a number, a big number of teams bringing rookie drivers for the mandatory FP1 sessions.
KathrynHOST
Starting with McLaren, it is Leonardo Fornaroli who will be driving for Lando Norris.
KathrynHOST
Mercedes will be longtime reserve driver Fred Vesti driving for George Russell.
KathrynHOST
Ayumu Iwasa will be driving for Max Verstappen in the Red Bull.

MaireadPANELIST
Lando's out for Mexico and Oscar is out for Brazil.
MaireadPANELIST
And then Jack Crawford is in for Aston Martin in Strosker.
9 MINS LATER
MaireadPANELIST
IndyCar is fairly solid as well.
MaireadPANELIST
WEC as well.
MaireadPANELIST
I think they say Leo Fornaroli was doing something with WEC as well.
Tommo McCluskeyGUEST
Do you hear about the test that they did? It was like behind closed doors.
Tommo McCluskeyGUEST
They're doing Fornaroli, Hirokawa and Kamara.
Tommo McCluskeyGUEST
Yeah.
Tommo McCluskeyGUEST
Behrman set a lap to match.
MaireadPANELIST
We've seen Drogovic, Bestie, none of them have got seats.
MaireadPANELIST
Fornaroli hasn't got a seat either.
MaireadPANELIST
So it's, these series are brilliant.
MaireadPANELIST
They're brilliant racing.
Scott TuffyGUEST
And I get people's sentiment because there are lots of talent.
Scott TuffyGUEST
I mean, you've got that Leonardo Fornaroli.
Scott TuffyGUEST
He's won F3 and F2 back-to-back, which is the proper route to go through, as the FIA like to label it.
Scott TuffyGUEST
It's a lot of money, obviously, that's been invested into him.
Scott TuffyGUEST
But it builds, it presents, doesn't it present a problem with the structure of the junior category system? If you have, because obviously there seems to be more people who are able to do back-to-back F3, F2 championships, but they are considered to be top talents, right? It was one of the big things about Oscar Piastri.
Scott TuffyGUEST
He won F3 and F2 back-to-back.
Scott TuffyGUEST
And then you've got Leonardo Fornaroli.
Scott TuffyGUEST
You've got Rafael Camaras potentially on course of doing that as well.
Sean AbbottHOST
Possibly McLaren.
Christian AbbottHOST
Speaking of McLaren, they just announced that Fornaroli is going
Sean AbbottHOST
to step in

there.
