Really? He's had his chance. And his second chance. And his third

Most seem to think he did pretty well.

 I think he did pretty well, but I also think he's had his chances. I
*don't* think bringing Lawson in will magically improve things (and he
may actually do worse for a while), but I think they have to look
medium-long term rather than short-term.
 As Phil says, new blood is a good thing.

So it should be applied to all drivers in the field, who haven't done as well as Lawson did in the first ever 5 races ?
A bit harsh.
