Imagine getting pole in F2 and having to retire from the weekend, to instead get to race an F1 wagon. Up the Bearman!#f1 pic.twitter.com/zqvxAHyxQK

He will be replaced by reserve driver Oliver Bearman. Oli had taken pole for the feature race last night.
Get well soon @Carlossainz55, I know a good surgeon if you need

Wishing well to Carlos for his recovery. Huge opportunity for Bearman jumping straight into the Ferrari for his F1 debut. https://t.co/QeBaHAjsNF

What an incredible opportunity for Ollie Bearman to step in this weekend
A huge talent, let’s see what he can do!!
The task ahead of Bearman is huge. His F2 pole lap yesterday was a 1:42.2. Checo’s F1 pole here last year was 1:28.2. So while he may know the track, it’ll suddenly be coming at him 14 seconds faster over the 6km lap. Massive challenge. It’s gonna feel like a rocket ship. pic.twitter.com/Ao7YPrG9od
