Marcus Ericsson

So did I, and going by your measures I think there's a few more that does not belong in F1:Because I watched F1 this year.
Kobayashi, Kimi and Vettel to name a few.
Vettel and Kimi are world champions, which automatically invalidate your argument.
Kobayashi smashed Ericsson all year.
But I see you're from Sweden, so I can understand that you're looking at this with blue and yellow blinkers on. However, nothing you say will make me believe he's good enough and override the evidence we've witnessed this year.
I'm not from Sweden, I live here but I'm from Norway. I don't believe ME is world champion material either, but to say he doesn't belong in F1 because he struggles to compete in a piece of s**t car is strong words.
I have not seen Koba smash him all year, on the contrary I've seen ME beating Koba in the last few races, and not by a little.
Again, Ricciardo have smashed Vettel all year long, so I guess Vettel doesn't belong in F1 either, I'm just applying your logic here....
Please do....Maybe I should draw pictures...
Come on guys, keep it civil...
ME did not look good against two drivers that had never diven an F1 car before in their lives... That alone shows me he is not F1 material.

Except that he's slower than every driver that's driven the same car, including rookies who do one-off races with no experience in the car whatsoever.
Yeah he has CLEARLY been outperformed in EVERY race this season.........
I'm done arguing this anyhow, I frankly don't care if he stays in F1 or not and cba wasting energy on arguing over him.
Well, what we can see in this picture is: Kamui outperformed Marcus 7 times, while Marcus outperformed Kamui only 4 times and was also beaten by both "guest drivers".
(that last part is not exactly in this picture but everyone that follows F1 knows that it happened...)
Oh and for Qualifying: KOBAYASHI 11:5 ERICSSON

Considering his pace the last three races I think he can do a good job there if this is true. Too bad for Sutil though.Seems Marcus might be driving a Sauber next year, good news (if Sauber can keep from financial issues

When he got Caterham to abandon the poor joke brake recovery systems that he hated driving with, and that nearly put Koba in the wall a couple of times, his times have improved greatly.
He has also shown a lot more confidence.
Having followed his carreer i know he is a good driver, much much better than Chilton, IF he has material he trusts and can work with. In Sauber he will get a car that is not 100% worthless, so i think he might suprise some of you
Hopefully he gets to bring Charlie along as chief mech... Those two work really good together.

Let's hope so, for Sauber's sake.
If the choice is "Ericsson or no team" then fair enough - but other than that. Ouch.
Sauber it is. -Confirmed!
Winning the Japanese F3 championship is "not driving good"? Ok, whatever
