The third consecutive weekend of F1 it's almost here and with it comes the time for all the Fantasy manager to decide who to deploy Fantasy F1This weekend we will run at Jeddah, the fastest street circuit with almost no degradation. Furthermore, this track has always given us many twists and turns as the risk of accidents is very high due to long straights that alternate with high-speed and S-bends. This makes it even more difficult to decide who to field in your team. But don't worry because today we're going to look at the recommended drivers for this weekend: is it better to focus on McLaren safety or take a risk by focusing on a driver from another team?
McLaren among the favorites, but Ferrari and Mercedes also have a chance
The two drivers are certainly still the favourites McLaren as the Papaya single-seater has always proven to be the fastest at the start of this championship thanks to its ability to adapt to every circuit. Who would you choose between the two drivers? Undoubtedly Piastres. In fact, the Australian proved to be more solid than his teammate, Norris, maintaining coldness and lucidity even in pressure situations. For this reason we cannot fail to include it among the recommended ones Jeddah F1 Fantasy. Furthermore, its value, corresponding to 35 Yaw, is still lower than that of its teammate. But you'd better deploy it soon before it increases exponentially! On the other hand, however, the Saudi Arabian circuit has an asphalt with very little abrasiveness, which could reduce McLaren's technical superiority which is standing out for its excellent tyre management, especially at the rear.
This also leaves hope for other teams who could see the possibility of taking home a victory this weekend. In fact, among the top teams there seem to be George Russell e Charles Leclerc the most convenient possible purchases to include in the team. On one hand there is the English pilot who is returning from a amazing start to the season, the best since his debut, and drives a car that seems to be the second force in the championship. On the other side there is the Monegasque who at the start of this season has thrown caution to the wind, extracting every drop of performance from an SF25 that has proven to be below expectations. However, the Jeddah circuit could provide some nice surprises for Ferrari drivers as it is a front limited circuit where the engine counts a lot and this could help the redheads alleviating their rear-end issues.
And for a less crazy expense?
Moving towards the centre of the group, the cars that have certainly proven to be the most competitive at the start of this championship are Williams e Racing Bull. But after Bahrain also Alpine e Haas they've proven to be in great shape. So who's best to field? gasly can definitely be a good choice. In fact, after the superlative weekend in Bahrain the French driver confirmed himself also in FP1 in Jeddah concluding the session with the best time. Is this an indicator of another great weekend? Or just a Friday exploit? Only the track will tell. On the other hand, also Bearman he could be a driver to take into consideration among the recommended ones for this Jeddah F1 Fanta. This is because he has always shown himself capable of great performances and comebacks. In this regard it is impossible not to remember his great debut with Ferrari last year, when he found himself catapulted into driving an F1 to replace Sainz, who had undergone appendicitis surgery, and despite everything finished in P7.
Among the least expensive Hadjar could be a good choice because even if his season is going through ups and downs for a price of only 10 Yaws it's worth giving him a chance. Also because with the exception of the Australian GP he has never made the Fantamanagers who trusted him lose points. Finally, you can bet on Sauber Bortoleto to try to get the + bonus10 points for the last place. Points he has already “earned” in Bahrain too.
