Thumbs down Pay Drivers in F1

what do you guys think about pay drivers and their talents?

Williams is probably the most interested team on pay drivers.. but high cost of racing pushes some teams into that way and its somehow understandable.. i never like Ocon but actually the reason he lost his seat 2 years ago because Perez had few big sponsors that flows money into Force India back in that time and still.. Perez does have some talent though.. but some of the drivers like Alex Yoong back in time, Esteban Gutiérrez, Sirotkin these names were pure money.. even if they had some success on lower series except Yoong..

but the fact that some drivers cant find a seat with their overwhelming talents find themselves out of grid is so frustrating.. knowing that Niki Lauda borrowed money back in time to have a seat, Michael Schumacher manager paid for him on lower Formula classes for initial part but they had some distinctive talent already with them.. Alonso used the same way up in the beginning.. i want to see the best drivers on the grid in F1...

you guys think budget cap will help?
