He only got a draw in HtH qualifying and that's bare minimum for "Mr. Saturday". Ferrari duo was more consistent, closer in performance but got outed by strategies, freak DNFs (LEC in Australia because of Stroll, or Brazil on way to the grid) and there was less drama between them. So as a driver pairing I would rate them higher. The Brit-bias is strong ;) Cheers.

Red Bull have a clear nr.1 driver in Max with a classic wing man. This is similar to Schumacher/Barrichello, Senna/Berger, Hamilton/Bottas. I believe Max is better than any other driver currently on the grid, so as long as he can do his thing, Perez' performance is les of an issue. I would prefer a Norris as team mate though... Mercedes and Ferrari have 2 drivers that are quite close in performance, and it might turn into a nasty rivalry if it would come to a title fight. I think Piastri has shown that he could become a driver to challenge Max, his mental capacity and demeanor are those of a champion, and I think Norris might have a tough year ahead of him. I agree with putting Sauber last: what a boring line up of also rans... The team feels like it is in a state of limbo. If Haas can somehow improve, they will be dead last, along with Sargeant and Stroll.

Snap! Approximately lol. I've probably technically been watching it since 1965 but it took till the early '70s for me to start remembering them. I have "photograph" - like watching a series of postcards - memories of numerous races (especially Graham Hill at Monaco - couldn't tell you where he finished, or how many times I actually saw him. His last one is the one in which the commentary has brief snatches of memory so I say that's the first I remember). The race I remember for the majority of the laps was Japan 1976. I definitely remember Lauda's accident in Germany (who doesn't?), and more so, his incredibly brave return. Seeing the blood on his fire "proof" balaclava still gives me the shivers. Despite being a Hunt fan, I had 100% respect for Lauda, especially when he pulled in at Japan. That took bigger balls than staying out given the toxic masculinity of the time. I agree with you regarding Aldas too. Do you watch Aidan Millward and Josh Revel? If not, I totally recommend them. You'll really appreciate them too.

Funny, if Max would have performed worse but still won the championship, Checo would have looked better and they probably would have been first or second. All drivers above Redbull had some bad days too but they didnt have a teammate who always wins. Just like Mercedes, Redbull had one very consistent driver and one who struggled more, but in Redbulls case the consistent driver performed better. Personally i think Redbull has the best driver lineup by just having Max. He could have won the championship on his own and checo shows how good the Redbull car is. Yes its the best car but not that much faster as Max makes it seam to be.

I'm talking about things like that curb strike at Canada. The definitely do not have the best driver Line up on the grid purely because of Max he couldn't win the championship on his own if other teams had a better car. Perez was underwhelming which created this godlike illusion around max. There was none of that at the first 4 races of the season when Checo was performing, staying close to max and those two wins. It was when he started underperforming was what made people think max is god, but really he just wasn't challenged. Races like Singapore he couldn't win because the cars were more even there. Races like Las Vegas He couldn't pull away even if he wanted to because Ferrari had a decent package their too

@@san-joshuabarrett You are undervalueing Max's season. There is a reason why no one came close to these numbers even with equally or more dominant cars (Ferrari 2004, Merc 2014-2016 were more dominant in my book, we can debate the timing gaps if you want). I am curious which mistakes you are referring too because I think most people agree that Max drove as close to a perfect season as F1 has seen so far. Perez also isn't as bad as people say. Sure, he is below Hamilton, Alonso, LeClerc and probably Russel but he is very resilient, experienced and a good team player. In equal cars, that means as a team RB will mostly be getting P1 for Max (due to Perez actually helping him and he currently edges Hamilton and Leclerc imo) which is a lot more points than P2 and below. Perez would than still end up in top 5 usually.
@san-joshuabarrett8 ай бұрын
@@NardKoning The reason why no one came close to it was because they had competition if you take the Merc 2014 - 2016 season for example. Rosberg and Hamilton were challenging each other and taking wins from each other right throughout. If it was Rosberg performed like Perez throughout those 3 season (2014-2016) then he could have easily have atleast 15 wins each of those seasons easily. Perez only challenged for like 4 races then his performance went off a cliff. I’ve stated the mistake before him making one at Canada at the same curb Russel lost it if I’m not mistaken. But I remember his radio message “Almost took myself out there haha😅” He had one or two other tiny moments in his car and even a race where his brakes were an issue too but he was just too far ahead for it to be a problem. If it were a closer battle those would be much more detrimental. And I am NOT undervalueing his season. All I’m saying he’s not godlike as people make him seem. Atleast I’ll wait to see him win that much in a season which has much more competition from other teams. Which I hope 2024 season the teams (particularly Lewis in the Mercedes’)can take the fight to him consistently. And not that one race good other 3 races bad thing they had going on in 2023. If max does that in a close championship battle, all credits to him.

@san-joshuabarrett the reason checo looks bad is because the difference between cars haven't been that large. Qualifying results were close. It wasn't like the Mercedes years in which the two Mercedes cars were 0.5 to 1 sec faster than anyone else. Checo is a bit slower as Max in qualifying and therefore a lot of other drivers qualified between them. That made the difference seam that large. Even Max wasn't always on pole. Still in the race he made something that is very hard look like it is easy. Still the difference in speed between the Redbull and its closest rival is smaller as between the Lewis and his closest non-merc rival in the Mercedes domination years. The strength of the Redbull was tyre wear, but towards the end of the year, other teams were catching up. Still, Max kept winning. Even as you pointed out, other teams were close in race pace. If you have 19 out of 22 wins, you are one hel of a consistent driver. No other driver had this kind of consistency. I stand by my statements.
@san-joshuabarrett8 ай бұрын
@@ruudkooijman819 I stand by mine too. RB’s Quali pace is nothing compared to their race pace. And everyone knows it’s on race day that RB car comes to life and no car on the grid can come close to it. Countless number of races Max fans boast about how he was just cruising. He can put late in the race to get fastest lap with no issue. And their were plenty of races where the RB was miles ahead Quali, where the even create graphics showing on track how far behind the closest car was. So that 0.5 to 1sec ahead thing isn’t just unique to Mercedes. Winning 19/22 is good but I don’t see that happening with the right competition that’s all I’m saying. And if he does that in a tittle fight as competitive as 2021 or even 2014-2019 I’ll comeback to these comments and give him his cherries. Until then he’s a phenomenal driver just not godlike as some would make him seem.

I really don't like the sprint races, but watching this - with a number of individual drivers in various teams being "held back" by their team mates - I had an idea. It could even work with a reverse grid. Only have the top scoring drivers from each team in each sprint. Don't add the points to the GP scores, so retirements that are not the fault of the driver aren't going to affect it, and have two championships to fight for. With only 10 cars on the grid, I reckon the racing could be awesome!

Its closer over a season than people think. Halfway in 2022 season (after fairly equal cars in this first segment) these are the standings: 1 Max Verstappen 208 2 Charles Leclerc 170 3 Sergio Perez 151 4 Carlos Sainz 133 And that is with 2 reliability DNFs for Max. Otherwise RB would walk Ferrari much harder and LeClerc would be closer to Perez' amount of points even. Notice how Perez is above Sainz? And if people claim that Ferrari is better than Merc (which many are), then that means RB would beat Merc even more than in these points I just showed. I stand by my point, RB is stronger than rated here and the best team out of all. They are underrated because Max is at one with this car making Perez look terrible and crushing his mentality.

I agree that Mercedes have the best driver line-up even if others might say Russell and Hamilton are the likeliest to "clash" if they have a race winning or championship tier car. I think they are both mature enough to keep it civil, they are in two very different places in their career which helps. Additionally, Lewis Hamilton's driving always goes up a notch when there is a championship on the line so I think the gap between him and George would keep the peace regardless.

@DanielB.-uv5ji8 ай бұрын
Any team wouldn't take Checo if they risked losing the constructors' championship (which Red Bull did in 2021 btw) due to him underperforming while also facing a COMPETITIVE team (i.e. not the 2022 and 2023 Red Bull domination). For what happens when you have just one great driver in a non-dominant car see Aston Martin. Would you sign Alonso if that meant Stroll came with the deal? Let's be frank here shall we? This ranking is about the line-ups not how incredible Max is so the teams would happily sign Checo alongside him (they would most definitely not). You can't have the cake and eat it too. Checo won't matter as long as the Red Bull is in a class of its own. The minute others catch up or pass we'll see Checo's value and then it won't matter how incredible Max is. And it's the constructors' title which gives the winning team the big, big money not the drivers' title.

You're assuming their team would have a dominant car, for a driver line up ranking you need to imagine all drivers in the same car, surely. If you still think Max & Checo would outscore Leclerc & Sainz, Lewis & George and Lando & Oscar, think about this... If all drivers had the same car and the results were something like this: 1st Max 2nd Fernando 3rd Lewis 4th Charles 5th Lando 6th Sainz 7th George 8th Checo 9th Oscar 10th Lance Max and Checo's team would be around 3rd or 4th I reckon

I just have a different view on the top 2. I think on the end is hamilton carrying russell on this. Carlos highs and lows last season were def better than the highs and lows of russell. So in terms of lineups Ferrari for me is on top of Ferrari. So if hamilton is carrying on this section russell on this type of list why is max not carrying checo? Just doesnt add up and the top 1 placement just makes this list a bit of inconsistent. Specially when he mentions in "terms of talent theorically mercedes line up is stacked" well this is not theorically if we are analyzing their last season performance. So the list was good until you arrived to the top 2 and it makes the list like meee

They didn´t even win one race in the 2023 season, and that with the grid closer then ever in the second best car. Constructors championship does not lie. I do rate Lando and Oscar higher than the Mercedes duo and also I give Charles and Carlos a higher score than Lewis and George. As you said, Lewis was consistent fifth or sixth, what is far below expectations of a 7 times world champion.

@@hanstubbenKind of impressive that you manage to falsely balance twice in two comments While you are correct that the field spread overall was closer than it ever was, the gap from the best car to its closest rivals was on the bigger side rather than the smaller So tell me, when should Hamilton have wrestled a race win from Red Bull this year? His only hope was to be in the right place at the right time when Red Bull get unlucky or make a critical error…which didn’t happen at all this season And btw, concerning that „second best car“ claim, Mercedes had the second best car over the season because they consistently had the 3rd best car on average, good over a whole season when your rivals are inconsistent but not so good for individual results😂 When you bring up Monza 1988, let’s remind ourselves…how did that Ferrari 1-2 come about? I don’t know if you‘ve experienced an alternate reality or something but the way I‘ve seen it, McLaren had one mechanical failure and one race ending…incident…which means to get that win Berger had to beat his teammate without any other contention in the second best car by far that day…how do you even think about comparing that to Hamilton this year?

I question the part on Driver Line-Ups already with many. I think that an obvious number 1 driver and being supported number 1 driver goes a long way. That is underrated.... I think Lewis LOST the 2021 not because of the last race. He should have been ahead already of Max in points. Easy to blame masi but it was the working together as a team. You can say whatever you want but that 2021 season of Red Bull, beating the Dominant Mercedes in that season WAS a team effort. We even saw Albon (praised by many including Max) on the back getting the best setups... You can say much about Perez but HE does have the back of Max (not saying it goes both ways). But they can work together, that is completely different from Russell and Hamilton. They even pushed there team to work opposite... if it would have be Russell they would still drive the 0 pod concept. Putting them at number 1 is just ridiculous to me. If your looking at the top 10 drivers of team bosses/drivers they all ranked Russell 9th. So to me if you want to great drivers together think best is Ferrari if you consider chemistry as a factor because it's a team sport I would go for Red Bull...

Of course Red Bull did a real good job to catch up and 2024 isn't a 100% Red Bull will win it all. But in general there is 1 team dominating an era.

Now if RB was Max and Verstappen.... easy #1, if Checo would be replaced mid season for Daniel, they instantly gain a spot, maybe even two. I rank Oscar and George higher than Checo but not higher than Daniel in an RB. And yes, I am biased, I am an RB fan. That said... everyone is biased so there is that.

10) Stake - Neither drivers have got much, Bottas can show some potential but is nothing compared to what he used to be. Zhou is fine, but doesn’t seem like a huge amount of potential (kinda like Gio) 9) Williams - Albon is a solid driver who on his day I feel can fight with the best but Logan needs to show more potential than he already has 8) Haas - Kinda similar to the Stake lineup but more solid I feel 7) Racing Bulls? - Yuki has become a very solid driver, Ricciardo is still solid for sure, not the Daniel of old but still able of some great results 6) Aston Martin - Alonso is performing amazingly and is such a valuable driver to Aston, stroll is fine but lacking considering is vast levels of experience. 5) Alpine - A very solid and closely matched pair of midfield drivers, no wow factor from either driver but both very capable 4) McLaren - Probably the lineup with the most potential to grow. Lando is definitely on his way to becoming a top driver. Piastri has bags of potential too, defo has some areas to work on but no doubt that will happen with experience. 3) Red Bull- Verstappen is scarily good right now and will take a lot from those around him to beat him. Checo has been lacking and is defo a weaker no2 driver compared to the likes of Bottas, Barrichello etc, but he is a very capable driver and has proven himself to be a quality driver in F1 over his career 2) Ferrari-Both top level drivers, Sainz I think has surprised a lot of people with how close he has been to Leclerc during their time at Ferrari and one of the safest pair of hands in terms of a lineup. 1) Mercedes-Close with Ferrari and similar sentiment. Feel Hamilton and Russell have a higher ceiling to Leclerc and Sainz, although it does have the potential to be a tense relationship
