I don’t think Ricciardo leaves in 2018 as the team isn’t exactly gearing up to Verstappen now are they

[@El_Nano2005]

There was more frustration beyond that, also Sainz taking his first win in his first year, there’s a chance that in this hypothetical scenario Red Bull would favor the younger talent

[@Torero2901]

It was the dreadful reliability of the car that did that more than just Max. The frustrations cooked with every DNF because of mechanical problems...

[@rafayasfi]

@@El_Nano2005 not if Ricciardo scores more wins. Surely that’s just more unlucky reliability than losing on pure pace. I think the quali battle goes 50/50 as does race pace. But the car wouldn’t have been fighting for a title with that engine anyways. Only in 2021 did they have a championship winning car where I think Ricciardo could win through consistency.

[@El_Nano2005]

@ Also for five years Ricciardo was never given a car that was fast enough to contest for the title, RB at best was 2nd fastest in 2016 when ferrari regressed a bit, but the point is after the team won 4 straight titles he came in to get them their fifth and wasnt given the machinery to do so, and wouldnt be given said machinery until another 3 years later

4th in every single 2024 race is 288 points. Which would likely put him right around 4th place. If you just plop that result in the current championship, he'd be 6th, but both Sainz and Piastri have scored 4th places, so if we assume Hulkenberg took them for himself and pushed them to 5th in these races, he'd be 4th in the championship. Who would've thought.

That dialog in the end really made me cry 😂😂 A suggestion of mine, for your awaited next alternative history video: "What if" Gilles Villeneuve wasn't killed in Zolder 1982 ? My initial idea was about Senna's career after surviving Imola, but that's kind of a mainstream "what-if" scenario for an F1 fan so...

[@RadityaPramanaPutra2001]

For me, Gilles Villeneuve will "joins the party (I mean the multi-way battle)" with Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell, Nelson Piquet Sr., Niki Lauda, and Keke Rosberg, whatever if he successful or not.

2026 Hulkenberg finishes the first race in 14th place after Aston martin produces a horrible car for the new regulations but then all but 2 teams get disqualified for being found in breach of the new rules. This promotes Hulkenberg to 3rd place and all kinds of spells and curses have been lifted from his shoulders and he goes on to totally dominate the season winning every race completely outperforming a terrible Newey designed Aston that should not even be a consistant points threat but in his hands the magic lies and he retires after the season being bored of his own dominance.

For the algo! I do appreciate the reduced length of the video. On another note, maybe when talking about engines or car models, it could be helpful to also display the name in the screen.

[@doghat1619]

"he certainly is that at the moment" Ehhh, you can definitely argue that 5 years ago Lewis was the greatest driver in the sport, but these days it's pretty hard to argue that. His teammates is fighting for podiums and he's driving around out of the points, complaining that the car doesn't feel good. He's lost a lot of consistency, he can go from fighting for wins, to fighting to get into Q2 within a week.
