It is because The Honey Badger came up though the Red Bull Academy. So Marko thinks he is better maybe?? I don't know. Honestly Danny is not a bad driver but not a great one in my opinion.

I think Danniel had a lot of hype around his return but he did not deliver. I hate to say it but he seems to have lost his touch.

Seems to? He hasn't been good enough to justify his seat in F1 for about 4-6 years now imho. He's jist riding the success of the past, his good looks and infectious smile.

Oh absolutely he is not sharp enough anymore. Before I made that last comment I went and double checked his record. It was not that great. 8 wins over 14 seasons and his best championship finish was 3rd. I didn't bother to compare him to his teammates, but it still seems like it isn't a record worth the hype.
