What we have seen over the past couple of races where Max has not won, he has on average still outperformed Lando and gained in the championship. So Lando (and the team) cannot continue as they do, they really have to improve to beat Max.
There’s also the scenario of RB losing the constructors because McLaren’s drivers have placed in the top places in the past races while Checo has failed to scored big points for the team
It's not the case that if drivers with the same number of wins and points are tied for the Championship that it would be decided by the driver who scored his first win in the season. Artice 7.2 of the fia 2024 sporting regulations states... "If two or more drivers finish the Championship with the same number of points, the higher place in the Championship shall be awarded to: a) The holder of the greatest number of first places in a race. b) If the number of first places is the same, the holder of the greatest number of second places in a race. c) If the number of second places is the same, the holder of the greatest number of third places in a race and so on until a winner emerges. d) If this procedure fails to produce a result, the FIA will nominate the winner according to such criteria as it thinks fit. " Possibly they might consider number of Poles e.g.
Lando can win a race, Oscar can win a race and Lewis is still capable of winning a race, don't forget Carlos can win a race, and if everything goes right even Charles can win a race. And in the end, we have Super Max and the end of the season. Great video.
Problem is, there is no one to win other than MAX. Don't get me wrong, Lando, Charles and Oscar are very fast, but they've shown a few times not to be mentally ready for a title fight
@@bjrnchrstnOscar has made huge steps over the last six races. It may not seem like it, but he and his race engineer implemented tactics to manage his tyres better. At the Belgian GP, Oscar closed down the gap to Lewis. The more races he does, the better he gets. In most race scenarios, Oscar can now match the big guns. One area that Oscar is really good at is race starts and the first couple of laps. Oscar always seems to move up the grid.
It's not gonna be easy Kym considering that now Merc are quick both Lewis and George are gonna make life for Max and Lando difficult. It's not gonna be a walk in the park in my opinion
These are all nice scenario's and calculations but the simple fact of the matter is that this is a mechanical sport. When the car brakes down for a reason these scenario's go right out of the window. Besides the mechanical part it's also a team sport, so when the pit crew craps up during a pitstop it all goes tits up too. We've seen that in Austria this year where Max and Lando met to close for comfort on track after Red Bull dropped the ball during Max' last pitstop. Same story at Monza which ended in Max' car on top of Lewis' car after a slow pitstop by RB. That being said as long as his car doesn't break down all Max has to do is finish close to, or preferably in front of Lando and he has his 4th consecutive title with Red Bull, just like Sebastian Vettel.
Max should get this years glory but the money is in the constructors, and this one is looking a lot closer. Would be great to have a similar video looking at the teams overall as well.
I'm pretty sure if they have the same number of wins, it'll get decided on the number of 2nd places, if that's the same, the number of 3rd places, and so on, but I could be wrong
If points are even, then it goes on number of wins, then number of seconds, thirds, fourths etc. If all that is the same, the FIA chooses which criteria is to be used. You’d have to guess they’d use the number of fastest lap points first, but it’s so unlikely it’s not something I’ll lose any sleep over.
I came here to say something of the kind, but you beat me to it. I've never heard of a title being awarded to the driver with the first win in case of equal points...
In Hungary the team showed us that they don't want to support Lando for it, 'trying to play the fair game' (If Oscar was in Lando's position I would want the team to support him too, such a nice lad) The team is insisting that they don't have a No.1 driver and that will never win either of the driver a championship especially if they are not achieving a consistent 1-2 (like Merc in 2016).
They've screwed Lando soo much this season, he should have won in Silverstone, in Hungary they should have let him win as he was the faster one in that stint and in Spa they should have put him on a one stop strategy (pit him around lap 18) he runs the hards for 26 laps, instead they allowed Max to undercut him twice 🤦🏾♀️ The strategy has been soo bad that even if Oscar had the chance in the championship they would still screw him up.
I wish your analysis was based on the last 5 races, not the whole season. The season changed dramatically in the last 5 or so races. The first half of the first half of the season was a red bull walkover and that influences the stats quite a lot.
Even if Red Bull do struggle there isn’t one other team / driver dominating enough to catch Max in my opinion. Look at recent races it’s been different drivers every time. Exciting but it means that no one will challenge Max.
There are many Australians out there in the big bad world. We seem all sophisticated etc. but secretly all we crave is Weetbix, Vegemite on toast, proper barista coffee and an Australian voice. Thanks Kym.
*Holy Pact ... you mean. Call it the Max Brake Testing in Jeddah 21 No Penalty....Running another driver Off Track Brazil 21 No Penalty... Abu Dhabi 21 blatant Race-Fixing Most Corrupt Day in F1 History .... Illegal Car 2022 "Catering" Budget Cap No Penalty and... 2024 Illegal Brakes No Penalty.... Holy Alliance. Lewis 21, Leclerc 22 and Lando 24 have all been f'ed over someway by RedBull and Max cheating whether through dirty tactics or RedBull's influence over the corrupt FIA. Honestly Lewis and Leclerc should take turns trying to DNF Max over the next few races to give mentally frail Lando a chance, by applying Max's own tactics on him, divebombs... brake-tests... running drivers off track.
I'll tell you what will happen. Lando will have Max kidnapped and held until the end of the season, he knows Ricciardo won't do much if he replaces Max and so won't Sergio, Lando wins the title, after that he releases Max ....Lord, I gotta stop watching True Crime shows on Netflix ... my imagination is all over the place. Sir Kym, thank you for another grate stats video ;)
Mercedes is the X factor preventing Landon from overcoming Max’s lead. Yes, Max himself will be a factor, but one can expect Piastri to play the team game, which leaves the Mercedes duo as Lando’s undoing. Ferrari, until they prove otherwise, won’t be a factor apart from being moving chicanes during races. 💯
It would take a miracle for Max Verstappen to lose the title on for Max to win this year. Realistically, it’s not happening. The only way the title would swing is if somehow Max DNFs three races and the odds of that happening or slim to none. Max can get super aggressive to the point of compromising and threatening his race when people are about to overtake him for the lead, but I think he knows the math now and I don’t think he’s going to take the kind of chances he did in Austria risk more DNFs given that narrow Lando wins over Max will not get Lando the title. By contrast, the constructors title is in play, and McLaren looks well positioned to overtake Red Bull and win
Realistically, yes. I don't know how much (if any) money attaches to a WCC, but it's just a consolation prize. Any team would prefer to have one of their drivers win the WDC, gaining bigger attention for their sponsors.
Lando or Oscar would need to win 7 out of the last 10 races to have a chance. I don't see that happening but Oscar is more likely to challenge Max imo. I think mercedes will take points away from mclaren. I think redbull may have had a car that was pushing the envelope to say the least for the first 6 races. Seems something might have changed from that point. Max is on 141 points over the last 8 races and oscar is 2nd on 126. Hamilton 3rd on 123.
There is no way Lando is good enough to win most of the remaining races. There is no way Max is going to go without points enough times for Lando to catch him.
I assume Max has to take 2 grid drops while Lando has to take one. We also take into account the Mercedes resurgence and the failing Ferrari who will only be better at races like Singapore or Texas where there is a lot of undulation/kerb riding. Assuming McLaren stop shitting the bed and put up a decent strategy for Lando every time, I think Lando can improve his average finishing position to 2 and Max to a 4. Assuming Lando gets the fastest lap everytime and they maintain the average finishing positions in the sprints too, that's a 76 points gained. That seems like a less likely scenario that McLaren dominate so well that they can finish on average 2nd always and RedBull screw up so much that they can't make it to the podium with Max and also Lando would have to bag the fastest lap and stay on top form in sprints too. Even if you give him all of this, he would still fall short by a few points. So yeah, Max has the title wrapped up for sure. It will probably go down to the second last race or something but Max Verstappen will be a 4 time world champion before Abu Dhabi. Even though this scenario for Lando looks highly problematic, I feel this is the closest Lando will ever get this year. Short answer, Max ain't losing this one.
You forgot the scenario when Mad Max has another track rage incident that puts himself out of racing for the season. That's the most likely way that he'll lose the title this year.
@@Redlingstein when was the last time he won a race again? Ignoring the sudden loss in performance aren't you? Suddenly 2 teams out of nowhere caught up to RB in performance? Then why do the numbers show RBs drastic decline in performance not massive gains from McLaren and Mercedes? Enough of the excuses. Even RB disagrees with you.
Sure, but it will have to be to Norris or Leclerc, Hamilton is mathematically out! All they need is for Piastri or Sainz to crash Verstappen out of the races, then max wont get any points for the rest of the season.
I don't think him not winning has anything to do with his form, thats for sure. plus nope, Max will not lose the championship. Something must have gone sooo wrong in Red bull for that to happen.
if lewis had that mclaren car yes def!!! but plando is a joke but Oscar is quite good tho and max is very good so yes he will be champion again but he aint no goat lol
He won't. He has accumulated a heap of points by virtue of RB's cheating with the differential brakes. Now that is no longer available to him he is back where he belongs, in the second or maybe third fatest car. Provided he doesn't revert to his old ways of knocking his rivals off the track, he can be caught.
cmon now lando won once race in his life,these calculations are wild, unless max gets hit by a truck somewhere on a road,chances of him loosing this championship are non existant
bwahahaaaaa 🤣😂🤣😂 NOOOOO.! though I think Max will struggle to win another race because the FIA have finally done their job and found something that was not right on that car, is why they are going backwards fast.. Max has enough of a buffer to just make it to the podiums and see it home because RBR will put all their efforts on that one car and Max will also have Perez blocking for him..! With their car advantage Norris should be able to catch Max because Oscar is driving great at the moment BUT Norris aint that guy, Now he and his fandom are finding out that its not just about a fast car.. Truth is revealed on track, not with lip service in the British press or sky F1 bias punditry.. even if Mclaren put all their efforts in Norris and have Oscar play 2nd fiddle, they still got to contend with a fast emerging Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton, which should really help them, but we've already seen Norris falter when Max has had bad weekends.. No so Mathematically or not Max is still winning it but just..!
It’s hard to like Max Verstappen as a person he’s very driven and very focused but also extremely arrogant that aside he is a brilliant driver. Certainly one of the best in the last 40 years. But isn’t it great that we’re having this conversation all of a sudden? We’ve got a few teams now that are challenging Red Bull whereas the last couple of years it’s been as boring as bat shit Can’t wait til Zandvoort
Max and Red Bull have it covered. Sure from the last 7 rounds, Max scored the most with 116 points, Lewis is second with 115 points, and then comes Lando with 114 points. Lando needed his team to be actually competent with strategy, but nope, they’ve been doing a Ferrari.
@@3rdGenGuy Max didn't win anything in 2021. His title was stolen from Lewis as the FIA admitted through Human Error. Prost's 1989 Championship stolen from Senna when Senna had to fight Prost and the FIA is farrrr more legitimate than Max's "Human Error" Championship. Even Schumacher's Benetton 94-95 championships using dirty tactics and an illegal car are more valid than what happened in 2021... Brazil (running a driver off track - no penalty), Jeddah (brake testing - no penalty) and Abu Dhabi (blatant race fixing in contravention to the regs that got the race director fired and an admission of guilt by the FIA "Human Error"). Max has two legitimate titles for now.
what about it? Lewis at the moment sits at 150 points + 250 he goes to 400 points but you have to consider the other drivers, what if Max finishes 2nd in the rest of the races? Even with Lewis winning all the remaining races Max would be ahead of him by 57 points... there's a lot of permutations and other than that; is very unlikely anyone winning the ramainging of the races, just remember that througth the history of F1 only once a driver won 10 races in a row and I'm not saying that to praise max but to put in perspective how improbably it is, last year the rb19 was miles ahead of the competition, this season is pretty close.
Short answer: no
Long answer: nooooooo

Possibly they might consider number of Poles e.g.
Thats literally what he said ? @@Redlingstein
Next year we may see a different winner. Think Max still has it covered for this year.
I wouldn't say it's Max's "form". He is still driving the best on the grid. It's just that he now has the 3rd or 4th best car on the grid.
Max is still dominating, other teams are just catching-up with their car. The bad news is other teams have not a Max Verstappen in their seat.
Erm…
@@jakefabian You are right
Well stated. 💪🏻🏁
Max is no where near dominating. No win in 4 races or podium 😂 yeah that’s not dominating at all
Lando can win a race, Oscar can win a race and Lewis is still capable of winning a race, don't forget Carlos can win a race, and if everything goes right even Charles can win a race. And in the end, we have Super Max and the end of the season. Great video.

@@Redlingstein You speak like an orange army fan always on his side even when he makes mistakes
The ones close to him in the championship are not consistent enough to catch up , they will keep taking points of each other till max wins
‘Max…..recent drop in form…’ I’d argue his form has never been better- he is driving the CRAP out of that tractor.
Max will get a few more wins & then he will just finish on the podium pretty much every race with clever strategies to secure it.

if im not mistaken and they have the same number of wins the driver with the most number of 2nd places will win
So I believe.
Realistically only Lando can catch him..unfortunately the point's are being split by merc mclaren ferrari and Max
You have to come to three before four!
mclaren have shown themselves of being unable to do the right thing for their lead driver.
Barring an accident that causes him a significant injury, no.
Max probably wins anyway this year, but for another year, i'd rather get Oscar to wins wdc than Lando tho
Lando needs to hire K mag to dnf max in every race from here on out
It can only happen if Norris wins the remaining races which won't happen
Max can still get back to his original form now that hes found a challenge
I don't think him not winning has anything to do with his form, thats for sure.

even if Mclaren put all their efforts in Norris and have Oscar play 2nd fiddle, they still got to contend with a fast emerging Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton, which should really help them, but we've already seen Norris falter when Max has had bad weekends.. No so Mathematically or not Max is still winning it but just..!
I'm fourth to comment! 🎉
Second half of the season should be interesting.
@@Redlingstein Whatever. Second part of the season then🙄
It’s hard to like Max Verstappen as a person he’s very driven and very focused but also extremely arrogant that aside he is a brilliant driver. Certainly one of the best in the last 40 years.
But isn’t it great that we’re having this conversation all of a sudden? We’ve got a few teams now that are challenging Red Bull whereas the last couple of years it’s been as boring as bat shit
Can’t wait til Zandvoort
Max and Red Bull have it covered. Sure from the last 7 rounds, Max scored the most with 116 points, Lewis is second with 115 points, and then comes Lando with 114 points. Lando needed his team to be actually competent with strategy, but nope, they’ve been doing a Ferrari.
@@Jumpman-s4l and Max has resorted to his reckless driving now he's not 30 secs ahead of everyone. He's going to choke some more too!!
@@trance9158 nah, we are getting MAX MAX again, and I love it.
he won in 2021 driving like a mad man.
@@3rdGenGuy he also only won the WDC because of the FIA and massa aided and abetted him and cheated.
@@3rdGenGuy he doesn't have the car anymore. They were caught using illegal braking tech.
@@3rdGenGuy Max didn't win anything in 2021. His title was stolen from Lewis as the FIA admitted through Human Error. Prost's 1989 Championship stolen from Senna when Senna had to fight Prost and the FIA is farrrr more legitimate than Max's "Human Error" Championship. Even Schumacher's Benetton 94-95 championships using dirty tactics and an illegal car are more valid than what happened in 2021... Brazil (running a driver off track - no penalty), Jeddah (brake testing - no penalty) and Abu Dhabi (blatant race fixing in contravention to the regs that got the race director fired and an admission of guilt by the FIA "Human Error"). Max has two legitimate titles for now.
Lando *Onewins" Is a looser, so Max Will champion Easy
I choose not to waste 5:19 minutes of my life listening to some ridiculous scenario
Grateful for all comments.
what if Lewis wins all the rest of the races?
what about it?
Lewis at the moment sits at 150 points + 250 he goes to 400 points but you have to consider the other drivers, what if Max finishes 2nd in the rest of the races? Even with Lewis winning all the remaining races Max would be ahead of him by 57 points... there's a lot of permutations and other than that; is very unlikely anyone winning the ramainging of the races, just remember that througth the history of F1 only once a driver won 10 races in a row and I'm not saying that to praise max but to put in perspective how improbably it is, last year the rb19 was miles ahead of the competition, this season is pretty close.
@@elChirrinChirriondelDiablo It's a dream.
The Verstappen fans thinking "no" aren't considering the FIA's recent change to Article 11.1.2 of the 2024 Sporting Regulations.
Those brake regs won’t affect Max as much as you are praying for.
Sure and red bull was the one asking for scrutiny about other team (mclaren) breaks when they are the ones using it... smart move
