Maybe I missed something, but it seems like he doesn't have enough points for a superlicense. The last three years are his best scoring (he only had 1 point for coming 8th in the Euroformula Open in 2020), and those are 10 points for coming 4th in Formula Regional Europe, 25 points for coming 2nd in the F3 series, and 3 points for coming 10th in F2 in 2023. So… 38 points rather than 40.

As an aside, when is Sauber going to 'add some value' to F1 by winning a race?
