He is by far my least favourite person involved with commentary

This is exactly what he should have tried but for some unknown reason he didn't he just kept doing the same thing lap after lap expecting something different.inb4 "you're an amateur hack who's never going to race anything more powerful than an excel" but if Lando braked earlier than Max and had more grip on better tyres it probably wasn't his best call to commit to going around him on the outside instead of doing the switchback. Max would have gone off anyway and wouldn't have been able to defend without falling afoul of leaving the track and gaining and advantage himself.
It won't happen because motorsport is ridiculously expensive. The vast majority of drivers in come from quite well-off families who gave them big financial backing, or their families had friends in high places that could give them that backing. Especially in Australia where all the drivers have to move halfway around the world to Europe to get noticed. A lot of talented drivers don't make it simply because they don't have the sponsorship.
Danny Ric himself said everyone in the paddock is a pay driver with "daddy's money" to some extent, it's just often less blatant than Stroll.
To fix this though you'd need to remove a lot of money from both F1 and motorsport in general. All of the junior categories appear to be built around paying your way into a seat, even kids karting comps.
