Just for Bagwan, drivers who might not belong in F1

What say you Bagwan?
A bit harsh no doubt, as I think Stroll might still have a drive on a team without his father involved. Though he certainly isn't one of the sports top talents, he's better than some on the current grid. And being paired up with Alonso is tough for anyone, as he's a driver rarely beaten by the closest of margins even in equal machinery. So for Lance.... I give a maybe.
Right now the only driver I would say for certain that doesn't belong in a seat is Sargeant. He's just not making progress, even if in a backmarker car. At some point most start getting it right, but for now it's not Logan.
Zhou is hard to measure really. Once again in a backmarker car and up against Bottas, neither of them have any points this year. But I think Zhou at least has some potential, and at times has had decent races considering the car.
Ocon is out at Alpine, and I really don't expect him to get a seat mostly likely. Though he's not a terrible racer really, he seems to have an attitude on par with the best of the best, and no skillset to match. He seems to get in his own head and see the red mist around any teammate, and that's not a good thing for an F1 driver.
And as much as I hate to mention it, Danny Ric is walking a fine line at the moment. He seems to be gaining some momentum against Yuki and driving better, but right now with less than half the points as Yuki there might be better options.
As I said, I'm still on the fence with Lance. What does everyone else think?
