@tkpenalty2 жыл бұрын
Very interesting that his tendencies in F1 carry over to RF2; not always late braking, and prioritising earlier traction over a late exit, aided by a car that likes to roate.
@Reetzah4 ай бұрын
For all tracks one of most important thing to get a good lap is corner exit speed. So everyone is doing that, Max just does it better.
@Leynad7782 жыл бұрын
During the first 24h Le Mans, that was red-flagged in the middle, Verstappen was about 1 sec. quicker in average than Bono Huis in the same team, so same setup. I couldn't believe it😀
@divinasi0n2 жыл бұрын
Based on a recent interview, i believe Max practices for these Esports competitions all week, as if it was a full-time job - so don't feel frustrated if you felt like he can just show up and be quicker! 😀 As you're aware, practice is much of the battle. Congrats on your achievement.

Just observing it looks like he's got a looser rear, lets him turn harder, rotate and get on the gas. He's prioritising getting in the gas early over corner entry speed when there's a long straight afterwards.
@classicjoker20082 жыл бұрын
Driver61 did a fantastic analysis on his driving style. Verstappen does rotate the whole car around the corner so when he does get back on the throttle his car is in a straight line and has more balance, leading to quicker acceleration thus the gap.
@savag.e78902 жыл бұрын
@@classicjoker2008 To be fair though...the way he gets it rotated in some corners is insane. 1, maybe 2 corrections in every corner he starts to lose the rear end, and he's got his foot back in the throttle when most people would still be catching the slide. To me, the amount of time he FAILS to lose when the car gets out of hand, is bananas.

Some of the best F1 drivers have a similar style, lots of rotation, early throttle, driving it on the nose essentially. Max and Lewis have very similar styles . Maybe why they’re so quick.

@isuckatthisgame2 жыл бұрын
I would like to see Verstappen's telemetry. He must be having those short intervals on his braking graph where he holds the brake pressure at constant value before releasing it to lower stages until it hits zero...All in order to balance car's linear forces and preventing lateral forces from pivoting his loose rear end over pinned front.

Max getting early on the brakes let's him take smoother turns and be on the gas early, that and he's super smooth in the lines even on the straights, also his car seems to rotate more mid turn. That's pretty much what I can spot.

Come on boys, 0.2 sec distance is on the straight 60m spatial distance and it's 15m in a slow corner. People think that always the car in the back is better in breaking. It's not (typically), it's just normal that the spatial distance shrinks in a slow corner while the time distance keeps constant. See Ari's video for explanation...
