Tsunoda vs Lawson. I know they'll be in different league cars, but hear me out: Everyone knows Yuki deserved at least a chance on that Red Bull seat so the rivalry is already planted there, and I think they would race eachother more than not because Yuki will be one of the drivers leading the midfield and Lawson will be behind the drivers in the top 4 teams, so they'll be mixed with Fernando, Sainz, Gasly, Hulkenberg...
Norris is the heir apparent to British idol worship of Hamilton ...... Russell had the unfortunate responsibility to outshine Hamilton (which he did in two of three seasons as teammates). The choice has already been made, teamLH and the Brit media (sky sports ) have anointed Lando already........ I'm saddened because I like both drivers but am completely over the delusional worship of teamLH/LN......I would love to see a rivalry between the two, in as equal machinery as can be provided.
Lando is a lot more popular i went to the British GP in 2023 and when Lando went passed or anything like that there were a lot of cheers for him and Lewis as well. George i didn’t hear anything he’s not very popular imo he likes to just focus on his job and get it done the best way he can kinda guy at least of what i see publicly.
I mean in litteraly every team in 2025 someone has to prove himself to the other. Every team (except mclaren en am) have at least one different driver since this year. Will be a very interesting season. Also with the new regulations coming up. I am already looking forward to March!
im sorry but Lewis was clearly inside Max head in 2021, his desperate mistakes and the way he fell onto his car when he won the championship clearly show that
Oscar's only had 2 seasons in F1, and when you compare that to the other 7 front running drivers(drivers at RB, Merc, Ferrari and McLaren) his number of starts is ridiculously low. Yet here he is fighting with them whenever he's on the pace. The only thing he can do now is extract that last 0.1-0.2 tenths in quali and improve his speed when in traffic. If he does that, we're looking at someone special that could be the next new world champ if Norris, Leclerc and Russell take too long
@@ntwananotshabalala5992 Oscar has driven 58 F1 races. Lando drove 60 races in his first three years. So if Oscar had joined in 2019 he would be going into his fourth year, Not only having 2 years. Look at the number of races. "He is no rookie. He fights with them whenever he is on the pace. " That begs the question of why is he not always on the pace? "The only thing he can do now............... " is become a better driver if he can. In 2024 he was out qualified 25:5 by Lando in all races. If he doesn't he will be a great no 2 to Lando or moving team . Dont forget there is only 18 months in age between the two of them.
@bjs7442 age doesn't account for experience. That's like saying that cause Bortoletto is older than Antonelli, he should be better. That's not how it works mb. And yeah, but you have to take Lando's first 3 years with a pinch of salt given '20 and '21 had been affected by covid. But that's the past, I'm talking about the present. And if you look at it, only Max, Lewis (and Charles to an extent) have hit the ground running in F1, Lando, George and Carlos all had shaky periods at some point in their first 2-4 seasons. And maybe this is Piastri's shaky period, not as bad as the aforementioned names don't you think? And when you go back to Oscar's pace, there are many tracks that he's gone to for the 2nd time in his career...at any stage. Those flyaways are difficult to manage so maybe there's some behind the scenes work. But my long and short of this. You are being unfair on Oscar expecting him to be on Lando's pace week in week out this early in his career. Even Norris in his first two seasons wasn't that consistent, but in '21 that's when we all started to look at him as a driver at a high level. He got his time, now give Oscar his to fully hone his craft
@@ntwananotshabalala5992 I raised the point about age because you implied it by talking about experience and I was making the point that Lando had years with a lot less races, yes due to Covid, but also there were less races back then. So you cant talk about Oscar going into his third year when this year he has raced in 30 races. Its the number of races , not the number of years that gives experience. Lando has never had inconsistency. he out qualified Carlos in his rookie and year 2. He was within 8 points of Carlos in Year2. He was only 18 in his first year.
Not a rivalry, but I wonder if Gabriel Bortoleto is gonna seek therapy/counselling from George. 😂 Both have similar career paths (at a basic) level. Both won F3 and F2 back to back, and debut in F1 driving absolute tractors. Though, George had to tolerate that last one for three years (which shows great mental strength that seems to be often overlooked by fans).
I look forward to the Max v Oscar battle . It will of course be for fourth or fifth in the race with Charles and Lando racing for the victory and Lewis secure in 3rd.
Max, or anyone for that matter, vs Oscar would be great to watch. I'd love to see Oscar drive any of them nuts when they realise they can't get in his head. 😂😂
McLaren looked a lot more situationally dominant as opposed to constantly dominant by the end of the year. Red Bull made more gains by abu Dhabi and Ferrari are present as ever. I wouldn't count on Zandvoort McLaren making an appearance.
i dont think max and oscar are that different i think oscar is the chill version of max and max said if hes not champion its gonna be oscar that was after a few races in his rookie season they have similar driving styles and oscar memtioned that he watches him drive and learning so ithink hes smart if hes got a change he'll be ready and yes its gonna anger max for sure ,if he stays like this and never looses his cool hes gonna win and i expect max to respect him for that being outplayed by ''his'' game!!!!!
Every one is expecting Red Bull to dip. Based on what? At Red Bull the engineers are sitting on their hands for sure right? I expect McLaren and Ferrari to dip. McLaren due to tightened flex wing rules and Ferrari due to builiding a complete new car to facilitate Lewis. Mercedes still doesn't seem to know why their car is fast sometimes. Maybe they telling the media so 'cause they couldn't change it during past season. From AMR I expect another year of mediocrity with maybe at the end an upwards trend. Sauber doesn't look great indeed. The noises coming out of Audi aren't rosy either. Williams used up their development budget, Alpine is likely to be sold and RB are aiming for p5-6. Haas is depending on Ferrari to be decent again and with the Ferrari car a question mark so is the Haas.
@191_keshavmishra9 Yes cold races with smooth asphalt and little cerbstones. On those tracks Mercedes could slam the car to the ground and practically remove the suspension.
Yes piastri Is mentally very strong, he Is a master, max can't do anything with him....dream Reality...2 times they were in track togheter, brazil max Cook oscar, abu Dhabi oscar Cook his self ahah
Everyone says Oscar is so level-headed, just remember his "That's a champion's move for sure" radio (Max managed to championly turn his car to point in the right direction immediately, using the same movement, losing some places, while Oscar just clumsily drifted backwards not knowing what to do but complain on the radio ending up last, watch the replay), and then Oscar a lap later or so went to crash into Colapinto on a straight line all by himself. He's "level-headed" because he's barely there if at all, so, what pressure? It's delusional to think he'll manage to stay calm when and if he's actually in the mix with all the pressure on, and it's even more delusional to think Verstappen will somehow be shocked by this! People forget Max and Lewis set the bar for being shocked under pressure. Anyone seriously thinking Piastri is on that level, or even can be on that level is watching other series and too much F1 UA-cam experts. I think Lewis won't be too bothered by Leclerc beating him especially in Q: even if he's just a charade (as many people think), he'll have to maintain his very curated image, so we'll just see him all serious and sulky while claiming everything's fine but some settings and parts need this and that and they were testing different stuff, just as he was when Russell beat him. Finally, a video without Sergio Pérez and Red Bull trying to fire him! Happy holidays!

If Red Bull got it wrong and still won 9 races and Max could still fight, dont write Red Bull off just yet
Anything I've missed? Let me know for perhaps a second video!
the most important rivalry to me is Lawson vs Antonelli, the 2 rookie drivers that have seats in decent teams.
Tsunoda vs Lawson. I know they'll be in different league cars, but hear me out: Everyone knows Yuki deserved at least a chance on that Red Bull seat so the rivalry is already planted there, and I think they would race eachother more than not because Yuki will be one of the drivers leading the midfield and Lawson will be behind the drivers in the top 4 teams, so they'll be mixed with Fernando, Sainz, Gasly, Hulkenberg...
I think that Lewis V Charles will be the most exciting as imo it’s 50/50.
Stroll Vs anyone he crashes into.
Norris is the heir apparent to British idol worship of Hamilton ...... Russell had the unfortunate responsibility to outshine Hamilton (which he did in two of three seasons as teammates).

I don’t think that’s decided yet?
Gotta bring up Hamilton somehow 😭😭🙏🙏

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

He was desperate to win, it wasnt because of Lewis' antics
Max would eat up Oscar lmao first let oscar beat lando then he can compete with Max.
Oscar’s trajectory is 1 good race followed by 3 mediocre races😂

Merc was rapid quick in cold races

Yes cold races with smooth asphalt and little cerbstones. On those tracks Mercedes could slam the car to the ground and practically remove the suspension.
So if y’all can say “stop”, “step”, “steer”, etc… Why does Verstappen always turn out as Vershtappen?
