Like you clearly stated, one of Max's special talents is that he is able to adjust his driving style to suit the car's limitations in order to push the limits. But ..... our humble opinion, Max's greatest talent is his ability to turn off all the incredible responsibility his fans & team put on him the moment he starts the car and manages to focus's on getting more than the maximum out of the car every race.

[@F1Unchained]

Agreed one of his own in that and blocking any noise

[@JayQ2k]

At the moment I can only see Oscar emulating something similar. Oh, and oversteer is indeed faster. Understeer is also known as stable platform. Stable is like reliably quick (and as Lewis showed very quick), but within limits. Oversteer is twitchy. It's a very thin margin where it works and the margin for error is next to zero, but if it works... It's like driving on eggshells all the time. You can slow the car down to save tires, but never ever let go. A stable platform leaves room for error. The more room for error, the slower the car is. Equestrian has the same thing. Twitchy horse can get you the title, a stable horse absolutely not. In the end it all depends on how capable you are in controlling the madness underneath you.

[@hanaegpy]

This was so beautifully explained.

[@Minifliek]

That's because the stable car puts the limitation on the car, the unstable car puts a limitation on the drivers skill.

One of the greatest qualities of Max IMHO is his ability to have meaningful interactions with the engineers working on the car, explaining how he thinks the car can be improved in a way that engineers can implement.

[@lucthien601]

I have to said Max is a great driver and his feedback and tech team work out so well, that help Max to get the best out of the car for each track. This is One of the best F1 Team Work right now.

[@42earthling]

Point 1 is that the car isn't build for Max his driving style, the start of the season shows us this. What Max has learned in Baku during the race is unknown but it certainly has given him the edge over Sergio. point 2 is talking about oversteer or understeer, in my view that points to an unbalanced car and thus excessive tirewear either on the front or rear due to the unbalance. Obviously the front axle is developped in a way that it is properly responsive and thus the driver is able to position the car for and through corners and hence gain time, especially when it is a combination of corners. And of course the exit out of corners, if the car is properly positioned for the exit, there is a whole straight where time is gained due to a good exit out of a corner. But in order to gain that time, the car must be properly balanced during entry, mid and the exit out of a corner, that is why i think speaking of understeer or oversteer is not the proper wording.

[@Minifliek]

It is indeed not the right wording, thats why a pointy car would describe it better. Since in the hands of Max the car is not "oversteering" but he is on the limit.

[@hammadkaimkhani7632]

Leclerc has very similar style he even likes it more pointy. But he doesn't know where the limit is usually. In equal machinery specially on qualifying trim ill bet on leclerc but in race trim Max is on another level

Great analysis. Max has matured immensely over the last few years, and has been able to develop his abilities without compromising position.

Interesting to see Max often go out very early in a session and immediately be fast.

[@optyfen5276]

Max's style is more similar to Schumacher than Senna's. Senna was about late braking and had long corners whereas Max and Schumacher both brake earlier and shorten the corners.

[@CarlosSamuel-ms9ee]

I think whether an oversteery or understeery car is faster depends on how you define them. Technically every track car combination will have an optimum balance which allows you to get around in the minimum amount of time. That is almost by definition a balanced setup. That's because on a rear limited circuit, a balanced setup will involve maximising the rear end grip available in the car and vice versa. Having said that there are car track combinations where that will frequently involve making many adjustments on the steering wheel, and others where precise throttle control is more important. It's clear that Maxs style is well suited to carrying a lot of speed, through high speed corners, and in qualifying, that's where he dominates.

This kind of style is greedy on tire.

Also, a oversteery car is easier to push than understeery car because of easy it is to rotate the car around

[@dco1019]

actually not.. cause front end limited cars are as the word says limited on entry and exit.. and the limit shows itself with rather benign and stable understeer...thats why understeery cars are considered easier to control. Not saying btw that certain drivers dont excel grinding out every margin on every corner... but the margins are inherently much smaller cause going over the limit is easily identified>some very stable understeer. oversteer.. is a much more violent and snappy affair..blink of an eye and you lost the car.. it makes drivers scared to push and its therefor harder to push. more difficult to control, more difficult/scary to identify the limit without suffering the consequence. most drivers lose confidence and drive too much on edge (so it becomes nerve wrecking) with that setup.

[@cococalm]

That MV is a talented driver is a moot point. I do not think anyone contests this. That Adrian Newey is a legend is also undisputable. The combination of Newey and MV is arguably one of the best there has ever been. It is also very clear that Newey designs his car with his lead driver in mind, because winning is the only thing that important. One without the other ( design / driver ) does not work - proof is on display in RB at present. When Mclaren dominated in the MP 4/4 and MP 4/5 years, Gordon Murray designed the car around his drivers, So too did Ferrari with Ross Brawn, and then again Adrian Newey with RB in Vettels time and finally, MB's Paddy Lowe and James Allison who designed cars around their star driver (though LH and Rosberg had similar styles). Where the pairings have been competitive with eachother are where the driving styles were the same with the exception of Mclaren with Senna and Prost both having their distinctive styles. But Gordon Murray designed the cars to suit each driver - probably easier because the cars were simpler, smaller and less "technical" and Prost being much shorter than Senna - 1.65 / 1.75. What needs to be understood is that any domination is bad for business. Especially when that business is reliant on sponsorships and msot of all viewership. Predictability is boring which is hand in hand with domination. It is a fine line. And then there is DOMINATION and domination ......

[@greentea9335]

Steve Nichols designed the MP4/4, and Neil Oatley designed the MP4/5. The fastest combination is a car designed to be as fast as possible (within the rules/physics), paired with a driver who can alter his style to push that car to its absolute limits.

Yo @F1unchained heard about the rumors of Aston Martin restarting their Valkyrie LMH project in 2025? that's a year before Honda swoops on in to the team as their engine provider. from this point on its entire my own speculation rather than what is being reported, take it all with a grain of salt as its all unfounded and just what i think will happen: 1: Lance leaves the F1 grid to join that LMH project. 2: With Honda coming in, the ever so rumored Yuki move actually happens and we have him in green rather than AT/RB colors. Liam Lawson takes the AT seat with Daniel Richavocado if he doesn't move to RB, if he does. maybe they keep Checo in AT like bottas going to AR. despite his errors lately, Checo is a good driver and a loss for the grid. 3: If the car is competitive, it will usually finish in top 5 with Lance behind the wheel. 4: Lawrence will try to leverage the RedBull ties to the Valkyrie project.

Since you like so many "ifs", Max got a few victories every season even when the RB was not the dominant force, sometimes the third or fourth during the bad Renault years. Now, how many victories did Hamilton get since he doesn't have a dominant car anymore (still a great car, often the second best this season)? Yes, none...even his rookie teammate has got one...So, applying your own logic, put Perez on Lewis dominant (unlimited budget) Mercedes and he would also be able to clinch all the titles Hamilton got, maybe even one he lost to Rosberg.

The more teammates Max chews up and spits out the more special he looks.

Lets compare it to the Mclaren recently . A car that has improved a lot but people would argue is nothing like as good as the RB. The gap per lap between Max and Lando was 0.36. However Lando lost 10 secs because of Perez and the VSC That reduces the deficit to 0.17. I assume that Max would respond so the margin would be greater.
