At 26, Gasly has a long future ahead of him in the sport and has demonstrated his potential with a stunning drive to win the 2020 Italian Grand Prix, his maiden victory in F1. And the highly-rated Frenchman believes he can mix it with drivers of a similar age, such as Verstappen, Charles Leclerc, George Russell and Lando Norris.
“I see Charles in a Ferrari, I see Max in the Red Bull, George in the Mercedes, Lando in the McLaren – I’ve been fighting with these guys all my career,” Gasly says. “I know that’s where I belong and I want to get my chance to be in this position as well.”
If he is denied the chance to partner Verstappen with the team in the future, there are likely to be several teams interested in his services. McLaren may be looking to replace Daniel Ricciardo in 2023, while Mercedes would surely enlist Gasly as a candidate to succeed Lewis Hamilton if he decides to hang up his gloves at the end of the season.
