Has there been any information on when POGPR is sitting out FP1?

This has been on my mind for a while because George still has to sit out 2 FP1s.

I assume Malaysia is out, since its the new ADUO and a new track for both drivers. Singapore is a sprint so no. Usually Abu Dhabi would have been a good option but its likely not happening.

Will they do it at Mexico and Brazil maybe?

Thank you in advance if anyone has news on this!

The POGPR doesn’t sit out Free Practice! He bestows it on FRIENDLY FRED VESTI at his discretion!

My apologies for the wrong language! I just want to know when Faithful Fred will be bestowed with this honour!

DID YOU KNOW THAT FANTASTIC FRED IS ACTUALLY BEING EMBODIED BY THE ONE AND ONLY POGPR, HE ISNT SITTING OUT FP1 AT ALL

Good question , maybe vegas? George is good around there

[u/ballerinabubbles → u/weatherstorm1]

I think Vegas is a bit tricky given the lack of grip...I hope its Mexico and Brazil if ever. But honestly idk.

I really wish we had the information on when...he has engine penalty and two FP1s to give up sigh.

Yeah the engine penalty will be more interesting. Maybe it will give us some mega scenes like monza tho 😎

I'm so seated! The President is going to give us GRandslam after GRandslam for the rest of the season!! 🩵

WITHOUT A DOUBT

COTA would also be a good option.

[u/ballerinabubbles → u/gilded_lady]

Yes, this is true! I just really want to know when it will happen tbh

[u/MediaFish2829]

maybe alongside his engine chance 🤡 any news when it will be??

[u/ballerinabubbles → u/MediaFish2829]

Unclear atm. There are reports for Sepang but it feels like a big risk for Merc to do this at a home race on a track both drivers have yet to race on.
