All he has to do is pass rookie orientation for the 500, which is a test that has existed for a long time. The issue with F1 is the super license which is set up to protectnl that ladder. IIRC, had it not been for the covid period that wreaked havoc on the IC ladder, Herta would have had enough super license points. Not going this year has much more to do with no open seats. Kanaan is already filling that 4th ride, I don't think there is anything open among McLaren, Penske, CGR, and Penske. He could come over right now an run a full season with no problem if he had a seat and funding.
