Love Ferrari their consistency level is insane. They never disappoint me at disappointing me. They even found a new strategy to do so
I seen you comment this exact thing on another video
Tbh I love Ferrari racing teams but the actual company is pretty awful, so seeing them loose sucks and is entertaining at the same time
@@jaymack396 his comment about consistency is consistent
🤣🤣🤣
😁
Albon's P10 is the most heartwarming result this race. Totally deserved it with that tractor of his.
Rocket down the straights tractor in the corners
@@russell6075 streamlined tractor
@@russell6075 so basically an American muscle car lmao. he's out there in a supercharged Camaro
@@modermoder2 the Camaro is actually a track weapon 😅
It's the fastest car on straight. Not that bad
Here to see his pain once more…
Same. He takes it so well though.
No
Ferrari are done. I think, if you're still hoping for them to pull out Q's regularly, you're wasting your time.
We’re all here for Matt’s pain
Yup
Latifi must be really sad that Mazepin is gone, because now Latifi is hands down the worst driver in F1.
Finally, somebody talking some sense about him. There are better drivers who can take his place.
@@xtheamazingax unfortunately though, are there better drivers who would provide Williams with more money than him? Sad how F1 works sometimes
@@golanheights9000 I disagree, Stroll is definitely clear of Latifi. He has great race craft, he is just inconsistent with it.
Shoutout to Latifi for helping Max score his first WDC. Best driver on the grid. 😅
I love how people say that drivers like Alonso or Vettel are so old that they are taking the spot of better and younger drivers. WTF is Latifi then? iirc he's the only driver on the grid without a single point as well.
Leclerc's last 2 laps are the perfect epitome of his whole season.
And just for good measure, throw in a time penalty after that.
I almost got a heart attack when he was leaving the pits and alonso appeared
The stupidity of Ferrari, chasing a bonus point and losing two in the process
looooooll
@@calumbishop7082 tbh, it was Leclerc his fault that they lost p5 and got a penalty, but I agree it was still not worth the risk too pit him...
Matt at this point is the literal "Man Who Thought He'd Lost All Hope Loses Last Additional Bit Of Hope He Didn't Even Know He Still Had"
Indeed
I love that meme
is that from the onion
Can someone give Gasly some recognition: started form the pitlane & finished on the points. Epic drive!
Yeah he was brilliant today. We'll definitely talk about him on the podcast tomorrow :)
I hope he does end up at Alpine next year, a more competitive car to show his abilities
@@rh-tz1ez I really want Pierre to end up at Alpine, but then Danny would 99% not be in F1 and I would hate that.
@@ThinkAboutVic There's always Haas but only if Mick loses his seat... and I would hate that one myself.
Let’s not get carried away, this the at best his best result all season he just hasn’t been there
Actually Leclerc's penalty is a bit of Ferrari's fault. They said they used wrong pit limiter sensor that caused them to go 1km/h over the limit. You switch the sensors between each type of tyres
Leclerc posted on Facebook saying it was not just the wrong sensor but the sensor also failed meaning he had no indication what speed he was going in the pit lane, therefore unfortunately causing his first ever time penalty in F1, seriously I don't know how much more pain I can take from ferrari it's really hard to be a Tfosi this year.
Omg, I didnt know that 🤦♀️
I feel so bad for the drivers and you tifosi
@@aidancrawford2084 even without that problem, pitting with two laps left and putting yourself behind Alonso is bonkers. good ol' Ferrari strategy I guess.
@@aidancrawford2084 First ever time penalty?
@@damp2269 I don't know what they were trying to do? If you want to go for the fastest lap you need to prepare your tyres and charge the battery. How was he supposed to do that battling Alonso? Also you don't risk late pitstop like that without a gap to another car, something could go wrong like long pit stop or even loose wheel causing DNF. You are putting driver in a lot of pressure too
Ferrari truly has embodied the "Never let them know your next move."
Oddly they almost let people know what they were planning to do too much today.
@@quintuscrinis it's all part of the Ferrari Master🅱️lan
"To fool your enemies, fool yourself first."
-- Ferrari (probably)
Yet no one blames chaarles for overspeeding in pitlane, if he didnt he could have finished p5 and also got fastest lap but meh ferrari is always to blame huh?
@@sanik4725 these 2022 tyres take a number of laps to get to temperature. His chance of getting the fastest lap was slim, and no chance of speeding in the pitlane if you aren't called into the pitlane.
I loved Ocon's double overtake. Almost a recreation of Hakkinen and Shumacher in 2000, 22 years ago
If you ask me it was even better. Because the middle car (Vettel) wasn't a backmarker
Imagine pitting for fastest lap, and not only not getting it, but losing a position because of it 🤡
Masterclass
Did Ferrari make him get 5 sec for speeding???????
Even the fact that they were after that extra point felt a bit desperate from Ferrari tbh.
@@rodolfoptx i mean it was free drs and slipstream that even better. And it was obvious that without a mistake leclerc will easily catch back in the last sector what he did
I mean the penalty is leclercs fault in all truth..
could you imagine if we had 10 teams that ran like Ferrari? we'd certainly have more race winners!
There will be a different winner every race (They are so dumb they could use reserve driver for no reason)
😂😂😂
Not with the way Max is driving.
I dont think there would be anybody to finish the race
I suppose it would look just like a match of Mario Kart.
After that race, it's no longer a case of if Verstappen will win a second title in a row, but how many races to spare will the title be sealed for him?
I could be wrong but he could win by Suzuka which would leave 4 races
he can be champion in singapur
He absolutely deserved to win last year but without the controversy
Tainted a beautiful season
@@thegreatafrican3367 I don't think many people argue that he didn't deserve to win. They both drove brilliantly. Just a shame there's no fight anymore
@@thegreatafrican3367 Yeah, that mess soured an incredible season. Hamilton and Verstappen both deserved to win, just not like that.
The fact that Charles exceeded pit limit by 1.0 km/h is something :D
km/h*
Ferrari strategy is less km/h than smh
It was a damaged pit limiter sensor
How did he do that?! He literally presses a button which limits the speed to 50 km/h!
@@tropickman , he probably pressed too late when entering the pits, maybe because he knew it would be tight with Alonso
Can you blame the Ferrari strategists if Leclerc was clearly head of stategy today (“question”).
Yes because he shouldn’t have to do his own strategy
@@dragonslayer3631 You missed the “question”
With Leclerc heading the strategy team, makes it that you can indeed blame this week's strategy team
We have these things -> ?
They're called question marks and if you put them at the end of a sentence they denote a question 😛
@@hallamhal joke went over your head question
So true about McLaren. Can't believe I remember the days when people were complaining that Ferrari and McLaren were the only teams winning and no one else had a chance. We've come a long way since then.
The only defense I could say for McLaren is that they've regularly struggled with rule changes (and they have outdated resources). Even so, they've definitely dropped the ball on their car this year, while their strategies haven't been good. Ferrari on the other hand built a fast (albeit unreliable) car, but their strategies are as bad as they have been over the past few years. McLaren are still building an updated wind tunnel so there's some hope for them. If they struggle even after it's finished, then I'd be very disappointed. Ferrari's problems however should've been solved years ago, but haven't. Hopefully the fact that they lost both championships due to team blunders hurts them enough to realise they need change.
Mercedes and Red Bull don't look like they'll drop from the front any time soon, and I'm confident that Merc will build a more competitive car next year. Alpine seems poised to slowly move forward, but they need to figure out their driver lineup soon (Ocon is a good driver on his day, but he's been inconsistent and has never been a great team player). McLaren and Ferrari are both capable of getting back to the front, but they need to iron out their issues quickly.
Now it's only red bull and Mercedes
Fun fact - this is only the second time since Bottas' debut in 2013 that Bottas and Hamilton DNF'd in the same race. First one was Austria 2018.
Wow only one time how realible mercedes
During qualifying coverage I pointed out to my son that in the Ferrari garage there was half a Pirelli tire cover laying on the floor between the tires. I said that is the perfect sign of the problems at Ferrari - they are not paying attention to the details. Team radio today made it seem like Ferrari had no clue how a Grand Prix worked and what they were doing.
They need Ron Dennis. That would be absolutely golden television.
They might as well have Dennis Rodman running the team.
@@dcdc2407 You know what, that might actually help 😂😂
@@dcdc2407 rodman was smart man
That move for fastest lap at the end was so Ferrari, 5 second penalty was just the icing on the cake. Also kind of expected a meme about Vettel getting Zonta'd down the kemmel straight.
When Crofty said "Charles sped in the pitlane, where was that speed during the race" 💀
I really love seeing Alex in a healthy place racing wise again. Also Nando's for Horsey and the Gang
This was my first GP that I could watch live and it did not disappoint
That was one of the most boring races I’ve watched for a while
@@amonero1 probably because you are a Hamilton fan
@@amonero1 lulu fan hahaha
@@WernervanDugteren he could be a bottas fan😂
@@WernervanDugteren After Max jumped to the lead the race was pretty meh.
Im literally hoping everytime i watch this, that Haas gets in the social media team championship. You cant win everywhere, but this is good enough 😂
Ah, yes, time for my post race dose of how much can Ferrari demoralise Matt.
Ocon's double overtake,brought me back to Schumi,Zonta time, brilliant move, truly knows the car and his ability to pull it off.
Shame it's not being talked about. It was the best overtake of the race.
@@apurv3638 maybe because it was Ocon who did it.
Ocon with gasly a sure interesting match up, will probably reignite the force India glory days as they don't get along any better than Esteban did with checo
Hahahaa, although they say different, they really hate each other since they were in diapers.
@@joostprins3381 idk if they say different, I've seen an interview where Pierre says that ocon was overcompetitive and they were never mates even as kids
@@giwrgoskatsaros13 they where in their cart age the biggest enemies.
Seems like Ocon never gets along with anyone anyway
@@oOGuArdeRKilVOo It's almost like some unwritten requirement about the number of French drivers allowed in Formula One, there were 3 when Grosjean was still at Haas, but it seems that even two is too much? 🤔
Thankfully I'm already well past numb to Ferrari mistakes. By the time they started full on strategy soliloquy over team radio, I was already congratulating Max in my head. I'm actually genuinely surprised we managed to even get a 3rd place finish.
Yup, I was genuinely surprised that Georgie Rus didn't catch up and blow past at the end.
Toto is an amazing politician. Lobbying for a TD and then changing the narrative when Merc fails to capitalize
Fair play to Ferrari for at least asking Charles this time if he was okay with the hards instead of just putting them on without warning. You won’t see other teams doing that but that’s bc they don’t blunder strategies as often so it shows they’re at least trying to change.
You do see and hear several other teams ask about that though.
Valtteri: Nicky where's my birthday gift you promised?
Nicky: Here it is!
*Nicky takes out Valtteri*
Never been a Ferrari fan but even I'm feeling bad for them this year. I mean, just how wrong can a team get it with a championship winning car??? 🤯
Hold your horses sir, its not a championship winning car until you actually win a championship.
the RB is the much faster car as we could easily see this weekend.
@@Yes-sw8gh "championship winning car" as in it is capable of winning a championship.
@@89gauna It wasn't in the first half of the season, especially not at the start. Back then Ferrari was on par, just less reliable.
Not anymore and on top of that their two drivers are not ready. They all can take a stack of good lessons out of this season
Matt, do you think that Ferrari can still get that 2nd place on constructors by the end of the season, Question 😂
I see what you did there.
Why not? They had more points then Mercedes this weekend.
If hamilton learns how to overtake mercedes have a chance
“So we are looking at a p5 finish”
@@joostprins3381 Than.
The new lighter chassis in the RB18 is working well for them! Dominant in practice, Dominant in qualifying and DOMINANT in the race!! What a superb race from max. Fastest lap, driver of the day and he won.
I thought that was only speculation/rumour at this point.
Leclerc discovered his penalty on the interview of the french broadcast, you could see his pain
could you please give a link to that interview?
@@shirahuj ua-cam.com/video/lMJ73axIxuQ/v-deo.html
Pain 😭😭
Fernandos collision with lewis had me like the two old men playing scrabble:
Yeet? Whats a yeet?
*Y E E T*
I think Ocon can be a Team leader for Alpine, but it was very interesting seeing Ocon and Alonso compete this season, because they were bith driving on a similar Level. But in the future they might even more on different teams
Ocon is a great and very underrated driver, don't think he's WDC material, but he's definitely team leader of a midfield team material.
@@billhoult3262 Ocon and Megnussen are the two most underrated drivers imo. Magnussen even more so I think. Driving a shit car for years can do that. But we didn't hear much the times Magnussen has done double overtakes. Really happy Ocon is getting some credit though!
@@Vlad-sj5yw yep, was really looking forward to a strong haas giving magnussen the opportunity to show his talent this year, shame he only got one race really.
@@billhoult3262 I'm still hopeful if they get the upgrades working at some point. But it's not looking too good unfortunately. But he has shown time and time again, if the car is capable he's driving it to the limit and performs brilliantly. Not to mention one of the absolute best starters on the grid.
Fun fact, Ocon is one of (if not the) driver Magnussen respects the most in the sport. (Said by him as commentator last year at Spa, waiting for the rain to die off)
I was on the track where bottas, we all sung Happy Birthday to him , hopefully he appreciated it!😂
Also Leclerc his fastest lap is over 6 tenth of a second slower than max his fastest lap, while max being on medium tyres while leclerc being on softs, having 12-14 more laps worth of fuel on board and also leclerc had slipstream and drs...
And people think this was a great drive by Max... the car was insane. Dude just had to stay out of trouble and keep in on the road.
@@brandonstevens4513 Of course the car is insane but the lap times would still not be as good without a driver like Max. Moreover, many drivers wouldn't be able to handle that car. This race was a clear case of best driver in the best car, and it shows.
@@brandonstevens4513 checo had the same car, sooo?
@@diegomora7608 checo didn't have a brand new engine
@@matthewthomas2546 true, but if you want to compare, just wait until he changes to a brand new P.U and then come and tell me if he wins from the back
It's sad how consistent the "Imma now watch the internet's best reaction to see Matt's pain" vibe is
speeding in the pitlane was due to a burnt sensor for the tear off inc(h)ident
Ocon may well be the most underrated driver of all time. Not because he’s the next Schumacher or anything, just because everyone seems to think he’s garbage despite the number of great drives he’s had.
He’s rated just fine. Nobody thinks he’s garbage, nobody just thinks he’s great, which he isn’t.
I’m REALLY hoping that Ricciardo can get Alonso’s seat. I think having a rejuvenated Ric and Ocon on one team would be a solid 1,2 KO punch to McLaren.
Ricciardo has lost his confidence. Will Alpine want him?
@@JohnFromAccounting they've got his 2020 as a reference, I don't think the alpine has changed much in terms of design philosophy, he should go okay to start then claw back some form.
Although if it were to happen, they would probably keep an exit clause in the back pocket should he not come back to form.
It's really the only thing that makes sense for him. I don't see him being interested in a "project" i.e. Williams or HAAS. It's really half a step up given the teams relative performance. It actually still doesn't make sense to me that Piastri would rather go to McLaren than Alpine for that reason. Of course there are rumors that the atmosphere in the team is so bad no one wants to drive for them, but I've yet to see or hear much to support this.
Where ever he goes , there is going to be a reckoning. Either he and McLaren were just a bad fit, and he returns to form in a new team. Or he confirms that he truly has lost it.
@@ians5245 Agree with everything you said, just wanted to add that Piastri to Alpine means midfield and occasional podiums is pretty much his ceiling. But at Mclaren, if he can beat or equal Norris before Hamilton retires then he's first choice for the Merc seat. I think it's his best route to a WDC, but it is a gamble to assume Mclaren can turn this year's car around.
@@JohnFromAccounting he has but then McLaren strategy cost him any chance of points this weekend. It is almost as if they want to kick while he’s down with the decision to leave him out on the hard tyres for 4 laps longer than Norris and the rest of the field. Especially with a car that was clearly far too slow in a straight line to overtake.
This year I was hoping it wouldn’t rain, next year I’ll be praying for rain!
The Hamilton walk of shame clip was brutal... no lift, but a camera~
Whenever Lewis used to win you guys put the praise on the car.
Now literally the same scenario, max is the best driver at the moment.
Sic
1 race where the guy is half a second faster compared to seven years where mercedes were that quick, nice judgement
@@samay5902 If its 1 race or 7 years ..... The car has to be the best to beat other almost powerful cars. The point i am trying to make is people having different yardsticks for different people.
Now you are saying Max is the best driver.... So does that mean if max wins 4 or 5 years in a row the praise will shift to the car and max will no longer be the best driver?
In the same yardstick lewis was also reckoned as the best driver when merc was nothing. How come the perception changes if the car has got better?
Now who is judgemental here? This is plain Hypocrisy.
You can listen to Leclerc's radio all race long if you have an F1TV membership. It's only $80 a year. I really like that I can pick any car I want and watch from the camera on the car and hear all radio messages.
For the love of God, tell Tommy to take it easy with the Onesie. Switch it up for the good of a competitive F1 season.
I really enjoy your channel. Thank you for another great video.
Ross Brawn: Michael we need 18 qualifying laps from you. Michael “Thank you”. The disparity of Ferrari then and now summed up.
Aint that right
That was a totally different universe. To be fair, at the time, it was Ross Brawn, Jean Todt and Michael Schumacher with carte blanche on all decisions and they were like a hive mind!
I used to skip Race Rundown before you threatened to remove it. Now I always watch it. Watching Matt slowly lose his mind is my favorite part of these videos now.
Matt in denial of Leclerc finishing 6th during the run down. Don't worry mate he will finish on the podium at least once in the next 8 races... right Ferrari? right?
Man, this video makes me laugh a lot. Thank you guys for the video!
Ferrari: Charles we are going to plan D, "Don't win the Race"
Plan D for Plan Do it yourself
Ocon should be driver of the day, as it is not often you see a driver overtake two cars at once but the same driver doing it twice. Way to go Ocon.
They should just give Max the WDC title already 🥲
Ferrari is trying. Every week they are trying.

What was Ferrari doing with that final pit stop 🤦♂️🤦♂️
They took a risk that only didn't work out because Leclerc speeded in the pitlane. Not Ferrari's fault.
This is one of those times when it's Leclerc who makes the mistake, not Ferrari. It's hilarious though.
Ferrari calculated the gap wrong with alonso so leclerc had to battle p5 back and couldnt try to go for fastest lap which was ferraris fault but leclerc made a mistake speeding and thats why he got penalty
Or its possible that they didnt calculate it wrong but thought that leclerc would get it back on out lap
@@Panfilo2 He didn't need to pit, he didn't want to pit either, definitely a Ferrari blunder even with the 5 sec.
Extreme E is a good sport to watch!
More action and absolutely beautiful tracks.
Alex Albon deserves a better drive. I love to see him in a team like Mclaren

@@user-co7db7kv8d already signed for Williams.
Better drive you said
@@TonVanDerAa yea it can be meant for the cars as well
Painful race as a Ferrari fan, but you have to respect the class that Max just put on today. This kid is in another league right now.
It was kind of a boring race - but my word, Verstappen was crushing it out there. I've been watching Formula 1 since the Hill, Irvine, Schumacher days, and Verstappens performance today was one of the most dominant ones, I've ever seen. It was a kind of a bizarre theatre.
Shout out to Albon, Vettel, Gasly and Ocon as well.
Max Verstappen is one of the very best ever compared to their own time. He is just on another level and anybody else. Definitely rates among Senna and Schumacher in pure talent already and he still has a lot of experience to gain.
I was at Spa this year, on the end of the straight before Raidillon. Amazingly handsome track and seeing the cars accellerate throughout corner 3/4 pushing up the mountain is an incredible sight and technical challenge.
The track needs to stay. Historical, but also a great track for overtakes, which is why everyone chose to take the grid penaltys this race. It was a chaotic start but a lovely race to watch and the atmosphere was amazing.
To be honest, even though im a ferrari fan, i really think that Verstappen could really become at least a 3 time world champion at this level of skill.
Given how young he still is, and the fact he seems to keep getting better, that number could be just about anything. 3 would be a disappointment.
That Homer Simpson meme made me shoot Pepsi through my nose! Hilarious! Kudos
somehow i feel what leclerc is missing compared to a verstappen and hamilton is the overall understanding of strategy and this is not only during the race but also affects his input towards the team the days ahaead of the race, which ultimatively leads to the insecurities whithin the ferrari strategy team we saw the last couple of races.
See i think the drivers must be able to communicate very clearly how they feel on each tire, performance whise. and here in spa i think you saw, that leclerc is missing out on that. There was long discussions with him about the tire options, but none with sainz and i think it is because they knew sainz would speak up immediatly if he was not the same oppinion. they were not with leclerc.
I think that's a possiblilty. But it's *pure speculation* without any indication it's true and still doesn't excuse Ferrari underperforming for a team of their caliber. You could have a mute driver and they should perform better from their end.
Goatifi: Fastest in FP3 with the slowest car
Matt: That’s not enough
Leclerc has to start making calls. Carlos clearly takes decisions with the team and with Leclerc the strategy just happens. Super talented driver but it seems he misses still some ingredients for the complete package.
they asked him to make the call on tyres and he couldnt , he couldn't pick hards or soft think about that. its at the beginning of this very video.
How many times did he retire from the lead this year? How many engines blew up? At this point it's Leclerc over compensating because Ferrari blew it early on in the season. Could he be closer in the championship? Sure, but at the end of the day, I think Leclerc is just as good as Max, he's just had to come from too far back too often.
Also, today was not about Max, but RB's insane car. If last year in Brazil was all about Merc's fancy engine, this was RB's fancy car. You don't dominate that way just on skill at these level of sports.
Exactly...Sainz dictates, Leclerc debates...
Double overtake is a supercell meme! Clash ahead! 😂
I think we must start accepting that not all Leclerc problems are Ferrari's fault. He's been making costly mistakes all by himself, too.
Everyone has been accepting that for some time now. Including Leclerc himself.
This time not so much his fault.
I love that you are a Ferrari/Charles fan but still respect all the other drivers and acknowledge it if someone is doing great! 😊
Another beautifully edited video Katy!
ocon is definitely a team leader, he performs very well almost every race and just like today he has some really clean overtakes
He's not a team leader while Fernando is still there.
@@JohnFromAccounting that is not the debate, with fernando gone he easily could be team leader
I think Ocon has the potential of being a team leader, not just yet, but if continues his form then yeah.
Its kinda insane how much he gets ignored tbh. Like he literally had one of the best drives from the back to 7th and nobody gives a damn
During qualifying they said "The softs and mediums are good, the hard shouldn't be used this weekend" and I was like "Watch Ferrari put them on."
Imma say this, but pitting for fastest lap wasn't a bad move, they're losing by such a big margin that they need any and all points they can get, so fair play. That was a gamble worth whatever risk it carried
If he’d had a free pit stop, then yeah. But too much risk imo
But the difference between 5th and 6th place are 2 points. Considering how close Alonso was, was it worth getting one extra point by risking two?
No, you have to maximize the expected number of points. You do this by multiplying probability with reward.
In this case the reward was one point with moderate risk (fast lap, crash... getting behind Alonso, etc.) The punishment for either of these things was high. Now if you multiply the probabilities with the point reward/loss, you end up at a negative in this case. So you do not do it.
In this case, Alonso was much too close. Leclerc was lucky to overtake him. In vain, but still.
@@jd3330 with how far back in the championship he is, they need to go for every opportunity possible. Also, since Max would have lost the fastest lap, the difference would have been two points.
@@Resto35 With how close Alonso was, it was a bad decision. You’re risking losing TWO points by getting passed by Alonso for a mere ONE point. Would have should have blah blah blah. That’s pointless. Max still got the fastest lap and Charles finished 6th. Instead of having a net of +2 by holding position, he ended up -3.
Max was a fantastic shot. Landing his tear off in Leclerc's brake cooling duct on lap 1
Imagine he's still at the team when Porsche enters. Nothing then is impossible. Best pure racer since schumacher
@@TonVanDerAa I mean he's already winning the championship. Not sure what's impossible now or how it would improve with Porsche?
Even at the beginning you can see how much pain Matt is in
The rocket league meme I originally seen posted from Battery Bottas. Whether he was the OG tweeter I don’t know but I got the notification from him and he had this pic and soon after everyone was using it.
There’s no way Ferrari could of took fastest lap. Max’s pace was overwhelming.
Ive been waiting all night for this video😹❤️
I think Ocon is absolutely a team leader compare him to some of the other young drivers and he’s really doing quite well. I think with some assurance that he doesn’t have to worry about a drive every year he will do great.
He isn’t really one of the young drivers anymore. He’s youthful but does have 5 full seasons under his belt if I’m correct
ocon avoidance of latifi on l1 was brilliant. none of the commentators mentioned it but it was a sweet move
Max was playing on 0% ai
Hey Matt, first of all I just want to say that I absolutely love the Internet's best reactons series! I have a suggestion for you: just like you do with the tweet of the week (show other memes before actually showing the tweet of the week), maybe you could do the same with the teams' tweets? show a couple of them, maybe more, before actually showing the top 3? I think it would be even better! cheers
As soon as Alonso came around turn one on the second to last lap I just rolled my eyes and said FFS
Engineer to leclerc: would you like pepperoni or ham on your pizza
Verstappen isn't driving to win the championship, he's driving to win each and every remaining race. He's gunning for most wins in a season
As a big McLaren fan, we are used to it I think. 8 years of crap and then tiny brief moments of hope and then back into the crap. It's much like being a Buffalo Bills fan prior to 2018, we just accepted our fate after 20 years of crap. "There's always next year." - New McLaren slogan, probably. Great video guys!
Did this also remind you a little bit like Brazil 2021, in which Lewis was in another league, just like Max today?
Good communication with the drivers about strategy is priority number 1. If you can also do that in secrecy that’s a bonus. I applaud Ferrari for at least trying.
Max has now entered the same place Lewis entered in 2014 onwards. He's got the best car, the best team around him, and he's performing at the top of his game. You could say he's the best driver, and I'd probably agree still, but.. you have to bare the car and team in mind too. It's years of work on RB and Verstappens side that has come to this moment and they're riding it. Even if max has a bad race or makes mistakes, he's still in the equivalent of what was the Mercedes not even 2 years ago so, it's likely he will still win the championship. You's see what I'm saying? I think he's still on par with Hamilton, Leclerc, Russel, Alonso, etc. I don't necessarily think he exceeds any of those as much as Hamilton didn't necessarily exceed any other driver in his dominance period. It's more right place right time and not that Verstappens skills alone is why he's winning. Of course he's incredibly talented but it's more than just him. RB is now in that zone and it could continue for a while, but I think it might reset in the next season cause of this car regs is much easier to adapt with than before. I suspect that another team will bounce back next season and challenge them. I can't see RB drastically running away like Merc did.
Max is going to make a last to first challenge in one race (and i wouldn't be surprised if he wins in that race)
I don't think Ferrari really did anything wrong, as far as the team is concerned. Glad to see they're actually asking Leclerc for his opinions now, but his engineer sounded like a kicked dog.
I don't think it's a good idea to ask the driver which tires they should do next. It is the strategists job to make that decision... if anything, I feel like they are scared to mess something up again so if they ask Leclerc and it ends up a bad decision, then the fault is not theirs because they did not make that decision.
@@DimeF1 It is and isn't. You can only get so much information looking at data and arrays, so driver feedback is important too. Putting all the decisions into the driver's hands is wrong as well, but that's not what they were doing.
Of that was another team or another driver in the same team nobody would blame Ferrari on a driver over speeding in the pitlane. But Ferrari is already a meme and a lot of fans cannot see Leclerc doing anything wrong
@@Garvm The stop itself was a stupid idea and way too late. They knew the sensor was off right from the tear-off/break-duct issue at the start. In the prior stop, he was probably keeping it slower than necessary to prevent from violating the speed limit But at the end, they gave him barely a lap and hardly enough time to take a pit stop(gap to Alonso). In that situation, it is a miracle that Charles was only 1km/hr too fast. He simply didn't have enough time to be careful/slow enough not to cross the pit lane speed limit manually.
It's definitely a bad idea to have such open convo on strategy over the radio. there's a reason why MacLaren have Plan G. Ferrari didn't consider enough scenarios pre-race and didn't plan ahead.
I love the idea of the Haas social media guys in their annual review with their manager just showing a screenshot of the WTF1 league table... "At least we are top of one championship"
I always thought that an f1 driver was unshakeable in their will to win, being able to come back from crushing defeats, like Hakkinen coming back from his major blunder in Italy in 1999...
But i honestly think that, at least for this season, Leclerc is just defeated, and unable to come back from it mentally... The amount of distrust in the team for their bad calls, his own unforced mistakes, and the general unreliability and lack of pace in the car compared to Red Bull might have just pushed him to a point where he simply can't keep it together and give 100%, only ever being able to go at 96%...
it's all been going catastrophic for Leclerc, since Matt got to meet Charles
It’s sad to see how unlucky Leclerc is. Out of all the things, Max his tear off caused Charles brakes to smoke and Ferrari as always with their amazing strategy.. I really hope that we will see more battles between Max and Charles in the future.
Oh and what a race for Albono!
Max his tear off? How did you get that, did Max drop it on purpose with his autograph on it?
@@theporcupine9993 Not at all, has only had 2 mistakes this season, that's not inconsistent, Max has just been pretty much perfect, especially now that the RB car is clear. It's a dangerous combo.
@@joostprins3381 Don't think he ever said it was on purpose, he literally said it was unlucky.
@@joostprins3381 there is literally a replay where you see the tear off coming from Max on to the car of Charles.. en btw ik ben een Max fan hè.
@@theporcupine9993 he is unlucky and Ferrari strategy isn’t helping him either..
I gave up on F1 live after 25 years of watching religiously. I now watch races via UA-cam highlights and the after race reaction is this. 😎
I think that Ocon havn't had the chance to show that he can be a teamleader. He have always been the younger less experianced driver with teammates like Perez, Ricciardo and Alonso
And always was the biggest rat.
