2023 Fantasy Outlook

Last season was the first in Formula One for Guanyu. It was marked by an 18th-place finish in the standings with six points scored and a best finish of eighth in Canada. With seven DNFs, an improvement in 2023 would simply be finishing races more frequently. Another area that would help him move further up the standings is extracting the most from qualifying. Guanyu had just two top-10 starts at Silverstone and Monza, and starting lower on the grid makes it much more difficult to finish higher on race day. Guanyu was a consistent finisher, though, which is an important thing for fantasy players to remember in 2023. That consistency makes him an immediate feature among the top-12 finishers, which could quickly turn into frequent top-10 potential with the improvements highlighted earlier. Read Past Outlooks

Gunayu finished eighth in the Qatar Grand Prix F1 race at Lusail International Circuit on Sunday.

ANALYSIS
Sauber introduced significant upgrades to its car in Las Vegas, and Guanyu has shown strong pace in both races since. He reached Q2 and began the race in 12th, his best starting position of the season. Guanyu then ran a clean race, something that couldn't be said for the majority of the field and left him in a position to cash in for four points -- his first of the season. Though he will be off the grid in 2025, Guanyu showed his potential with even mediocre machinery.
