Ultimately in the end Doohan is only as good and so are all F1 drivers, they’re only as good as the last race. And if Doohan does performance like AbuDhabi that was of last season finishing P15 and some 44 seconds behind his teammate each weekend and his teammate scoring points, sooner rather than later he’ll be out the door before you know it.
If the was a race between Doohan and Colapinto I’d expect Colapinto to be more on it from the moment the red lights go out then Doohan. That doesn’t mean I think Colapinto wins just means I think he’d be a bit sharper in everything he does and reason I say that because unlike Doohan he has 9 races under his belt. So naturally like anything in life more you do more you knowledge and know how you gain. However I don’t see why you bring Colapinto who was bare in your mind under contract at Williams and I don’t see why you’d bring Colapinto to the team unless you have a plan in place for him as a driver.
Alpine can’t afford to have one driver scoring points and the other driver down in 15th some 44 seconds behind. Obviously I don’t want to be to critical as Doohan was chucked in the deep end with very little practice or training regime and I think it’s unfair to judge Doohan rookie race in F1. Of course you can point towards other rookies who jumped in and shined but that’s very far and very few. And even they actually got more running in a F1 car then what Doohan probably had up until that point in his career. Let’s put it this way.
Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support.
I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized.
he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that.
he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened.
he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence.
i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me
i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction.
after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly.
things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it.
we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe …
our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far?
this has upset me so much its hard to even function.
You have to consider his position at Williams. It was clear a seat weren’t going to open there anytime soon, Albon is pretty nicely embedded into the team and Sainz, well he’s obviously Williams star boy given his past experience with McLaren, Renault, ToroRoso and Ferrari of course.
Possibly. I don’t think it’s untrue nor true. It’s a bit of both and mixed answer.
And if you looking at who Alpine more likely to replace then of course Jack Doohan would have undoubtedly be the first choice. You wouldn’t pick Gasly who’s scored podiums, gets decent points and clearly a decent midfield driver. You’d probably pick Doohan given his lack of experience and potentially not being good enough. Not that I believe he’s not good enough for F1 but he’s the one with a lot to prove unlike his teammate who has now 6 season under his belt, multiple podium finishes and 436 career points.
Why in my 60s do I have a strong desire to suck cock and swallow?
However whatever the case is I think Franco and Alpine must have a plan otherwise why would Franco go to Alpine without reassurance from top management what is to become of his future.
