Very curious to see how he does. I know Marko really rates him but his performances in F2 so far hasn't really been those of a generational golden boy.

Yeah IMO the way better play would be to keep Lindblad in F2 for another season, he's not winning the championship this season anyways

They could even do that, but told Lawson and Tsunoda to light a fire under them to see who could out-compete the other. Neither team is close to winning the Constructors championship, so the risk of losing points from being over competitive (crashing) isn't that big of a deal. Sounds like a great opportunity to really test the mettle of both drivers in real world conditions with low risk to the teams.

Marko said after the race that the decision for the seats will be made end of October. Until then I guess it's what you say: lighting a fire under them.
