It will likely come down to who's car is better. If the cars end up being really close for the rest of the season, I would give the advantage to Max, but if Ferrari can maintain a car advantage (on most tracks), then I think Leclerc will win.

[@daftlad526]

Well put. I see Max as the more "complete" driver but his style has become much smoother and less aggressive and oversteer-oriented in recent years, while Charles is the new Seb - blinding one-lap pace and untouchable if the car is set up right for him.

[@MM_2000IT]

personally I am quite certain that this rivalry between the two will never go too far, certainly not at the 2021 level with Lewis. certainly during the season there will be contacts, accidents, controversies if you fight for the title, but from the outside you can see a big difference in the relationship between the two compared to their relationship with Lewis. despite as explained (once again) very well by Tommo, they clashed practically for half of their life, still today they have a splendid relationship, and despite two strong characters, we often see them chatting and laughing together. I think the difference is given by the fact that they grew up together sportingly, and growing together despite the "rivalry", you know your opponent well, you respect him enormously. last year here in Italy there was an interview with Charles where he says he would have been happy to see Max world champion, and that he values ​​him very much as a rider and as a person. the same thing can be said of Max with Charles (like the post-race compliments in Bahrain for example). in fact if you think about it, many peers or similar in f1 are very friends with each other, Max and Charles but also Alex, Lando, George, Pierre. and as normal that it is mostly off the track they have different ratios than a Lewis or Sebastian for example.

[@hithesh7665]

True. I think the younger drivers know to keep their work and personal life separate, which I greatly admire. And yes, we did have the Ocon v Verstappen drama, but that seemed to have fizzled down too. Despite immense media pressure, I believe they should stay friends. And honestly, only Hamilton seems to be the isolated driver at times. The rest of the grid get along real well.

@@jarijaridewa nah the difference between them is Max would push the car to its limits just to compete

[@jarijaridewa]

@@darkraig7378 That one is basic skill to attack if the driver behind the leader of race. If Max Verstappen start the race in POLE, his duty is just MANAGE tires. Thing that i dislike from his fight style is the way he defend his position. He drag rival out track, clipping rival front wing, zigzag move to blocking rival pass him, or just cut the line to stay ahead. That's why this year his restart moves BANNED because illegal moves. But he win in Abu Dhabi last lap in that way. Thanks to Michael Masi who legalize all his dirty fight style. Only him fan of it. But i saw Max change a lot this year. Horner think he fight Charles in different way. I agree. But my main problem is NOT Max Verstappen. HIS FANATIC fans who insult and under estimate other skill. For me, that one is NOT great style to cheering others hard work.

Like you said it depend on the car development, I think it will be the key. Also team around them is important pull hard decision strategy in the pressure coocing environment is very tough thing to do for the team.
