@@bananagaming7612 people are really obsessed with this take. Charles has barely made any mistakes since France/imola 2022. Charles is incredibly consistent now, why do you think he is the only driver to have finished in the top 4 in every race and sprint this season. This take is so old and terrible. Max made a mistake in Miami that cost him damage and possibly the race win, but nobody talks about that. Congrats on being a Charles hater though and having this over used and terrible take

1988 Senna Monaco qualifying was, for single laps, the greatest ever. He was 1.5 SECONDS ahead of Prost. In the race, he had over a MINUTE lead before crashing simply because he kept pushing. He was trying to bury Prost, and in the end, cost him the race.

[@KailamiMwiinga]

Senna was a go big or go home driver

[@goomerpyle6005]

thing is, prost is too objective driven to care if senna won by a minute or 10 minutes. why risk the car closing that lead when there is no need to do so. probably knew he couldnt outqualifying senna or beat his race pace so he settled for second without shunting it.

[@F1Unchained]

I could see that happening as well my friend

[@franchico_o]

I don't think getting rid of the hard tire would do much for the race, people would just go even slower and make a one stopper work with the softer compounds. A mandatory two stops in the other hand, would be nice to see. Great video as always! Cheers from Brasil! :)

[@F1Unchained]

Cheers my friend and fair point with the hard but with a mandatory 2 stop without the hard, that would be fun

[@Srga91]

I fear the Aston Martin won't allow Fernando to shine at Monaco. Their qualifyings have been a disaster lately! Maybe he can squeeze somehow into the Top10. Mercedes should be strong here, as they are good in low speed corners and tyre wear isn't an issue here as well. I too hope Charles can finally brake his home GP curse and win the race on Sunday. The Ferrari is very good in low to medium speed corners, which should help him and Carlos this weekend. Don't underestimate Carlos, he's very good around here. Maybe not quite as good as Charles, but still very fast around the streets of Monte Carlo.

[@TyroneTsan]

Great video, with fantastic historical data! Thanks man love your Chanel, keep it up 👍 Peace ✌️

As a Verstappen fan, I hope Charles wins. It always feels nice to win at home. However, if RB gets their car sorted, I'm pretty sure RB will win.

[@rommelberenguer8938]

It’s beautiful, McLaren really got the right combination, love the tribute car. Well done! Senna was a BEAST in that track

[@cammiegibson7102]

I think Lando will do pretty well in qualifying tbh, currently forecast to rain over quali and he has historically gone quite well here, also his confidence in the McLaren seems to be growing with each race. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a 4 way pole fight between him, Leclerc, Verstappen and Alonso tho, they are all super strong here. Either way should be great weekend, margins are gonna be so tight!!! Thanks for another great video!

[@sheeshman9713]

He always seems to crack under pressure in qualifying when the McLaren is able to take pole

[@bkbaughn]

I definietly could see a Charles W but the way Max has qualified this year is another level... I'd be shocked if he didn't win pole, and therefore, the race... I also like Lando above Piastri. I think Lando drives well here as he was on the podium not too long ago and his race pace will be better as well... @f1unchained will you be watching the Indy500?

I predict someone will get in the lead, then lap about 4 seconds off the pace, put in a bit of a charge around the pit stop window, and then repeat to the end. There might be an overtake somewhere down the field, and we get to look at the floor of a couple of cars. Could be a thriller.

I guess Aston will do something about their brake problems & Fernando will show us what the car can, or can't, do. An Alonso driven upset could be a possibility

[@slapmynutz]

As much as I want max to Win, I think Ferrari and Charles will dominate. They have the best low speed performance and mechanical grip because of their supreme chassis control from their suspension. Redbull has their suspension set up to allow the car to work as aerodynamically efficient as possible which is not as advantageous around a track like monaco. Ferrari usually set up their suspension to allow for the highest mechanical grip, that's why they've always had tyre troubles since the 2000's, but setting the car up like this usually pays dividends around tight and bumpy tracks.

One part of formula 1 that still boggles my mind is how the drivers get told and have to time getting out of the way of the dude on a hotlap coming up behind you. I would have too much anxiety trying to not screw it up for someone. I cant imagine trying to do that on this tight track - maybe an idea for a video topic? Who decides the quali order. What are the rules, what is the meta. Whats best practice for a driver to follow while being on track while others are doing a hotlap.

Ferrari doesn't have a tire warm-up issue. The reason why the SF-24 was losing out to Red Bull and McLaren in sector 1 during the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix has to do with how the Ferrari Power Unit developed its power. Ferrari uses a smaller turbo than both the Honda and Mercedes Power units. From the data, Jolyon Pamer's analysis shows that Max Verstappen gained .150 seconds over McLaren and .250 seconds over the Ferrari because of the Nico Hulkenberg tow. After looking at the data, Charles LeClerc came to the same conclusion. It's not because of their tire warm-up. It has to do with their power unit.

I´m gonna add to that top 5 a dark horse (well he should not be a dark horse since he drivers a Red Bull) Sergio Perez.
