- The only true way to compare F1 drivers is to see who beat who in equal machinery - right?
So that's what I did, I made a chart of EVERY pair of teammates in F1.

This is waaaaay too much work for a stupid graph that was never going to tell us anything. I like it.
correct - would not recommend - thank you
@@MrVsGaragelmao
But it told us that Button is the GOAT. He is litterally always ahead of himself by many steps. Infinity loops for the win ;)
It is more than a numbers game. It is about being the best with technology of the time and drivers of your own eara. IROC (International Race of Champions) is the best as you have drivers from all levels of motorsport compete in identical vesicles.

Hamiltons the goat
Fun fact: Alain Prost would be a 7-time world champion with the modern points system.
Don't care. Lauda beat him. Therefore Lauda is the GOAT.
@@wingracer1614Jenson beat Lewis, therefore Jenson is the goat
@@wingracer1614Lauda was an amazing driver, however Prost was still growing in 1984. In 1985 Prost beat Lauda convincingly, although Lauda suffered some reliability issues that year as far as I can recall.
Schumacher was way past his prime on his second stint (with that neck injury too) that hurts him in this list. Verstappen had a Renault-engine ruined season too which damages his ranking here... But very nice video-idea :D

"This isn't accurate!!"
*Says Prost is the GOAT*
Seems pretty accurate to me
It's not just 'who beat who', when some drivers had #1 status in their contract and could never finish 1 place behind their team-mate'. Schumacher is the obvious example.
Schumacher ALSO is the prime example of why the "equal machinery" mentioned in this video is nonsense. In that era there was NO equal machinery for any team all first drivers had better equipment. Also Schumacher for instance had some time with software traction control that his team mates did not have. As that was illegal it was uploaded to the car from the pit wall during formation laps and deleted from the car during the race. It is the reason why communication car to pit wall currently is one directional, car to pit wall only.
This is true but let's be real, Irvine, Rubens, Massa, etc. were not on Michael's level. He had that number 1 status for a reason. If Ferrari could have found someone better, they would have kicked him to the curb in a heartbeat which is basically exactly what they did when Kimi became available.
The comparison between Senna and Prost is very telling of the shortcomings of this method. Senna and Prost were teammates in very different phases of their development as drivers. Prost was the best version of himself, while Senna was still a long way to achieve his peak. The Senna of 1991 to 1994 was arguably the most skilled F1 driver the world has ever seen. Had they been teammates in this period, Senna would have blown Prost away. And Prost knew it. That is why he retired so gracefully when Renault (who was looking to enter the Brazilian market) forced Frank Williams to take Senna for 1994. He didn't want to have Senna as teammate again because he knew he would face a much better Senna and there would be no doubt as to who was the best.
Nonsense... He was way better then his teammates therefore they added that clause, not the other way around! Same as giving a teammate a worse car. Why would ANY team do that!?
@@hound83 It's not about giving a driver "a worse car", it's about giving one driver a better one. Schumacher was given updates first. At some races his car would have literally been more advanced, but also he was therefore given addition time to come to grips with these things. Earlier in this current season Perez has beaten Max on track. Red Bull know he's not going to be a true rival to Max over the course of the season (much like with Ferrari and Irvine etc), but they didn't request him to move over in the way that the 2nd Ferrari drivers were requested to (and the same goes for Hakkinen/Coulthard, Hamilton/Bottas etc). Schumacher is obviously a titan in F1, but he still received special treatment that many other legendary drivers haven't been afforded.

Love this. I've always judged drivers on head to heads with their team mate over a given season and the consistency throughout their career. You always get a better picture that way
I've always used it too. It's ALSO fun to push it to the extreme because you get some interesting but also very silly results
True but I think it isn’t always accurate though. The team isn’t always giving equal treatment and in the past, things like reliability and funding can hamper a head to head outside of how good the drivers really are.
It isn’t really accurate tho. How about rookie drivers (i.e., max vs daniel)
The comparison between Senna and Prost is very telling of the shortcomings of this method. Senna and Prost were teammates in very different phases of their development as drivers. Prost was the best version of himself, while Senna was still a long way to achieve his peak. The Senna of 1991 to 1994 was arguably the most skilled F1 driver the world has ever seen.

@@user-dd4ib5eb1i I agree that Senna was better than Prost later (certainly 1993 showed that - my favourite out of all of his seasons). And he is, still for me, the greatest of all time along with Clark.
I think head to heads like any other method of measurement is not totally reliable because there are always so many variables that come into play. An example of that is the whole Hamilton/Alonso in 2007; both had equal points, Lewis lead on 2nd places, Alonso signed for the team as No.1, conflicts between Ron and Alonso, the politics of Alonso trying to blackmail Ron into giving him No.1 status.....the list goes on and on. Head to heads show Alonso beat Hamilton that season while you'd expect that from a double world champion. Not easy when Ron reportedly said "We're not racing Ferrari, we're racing Fernando!" I suppose that was more to do with the fact that the constructors didn't matter any more and Lewis was his man.
Regardless, much as I rated Senna extremely high, I still rated Prost as another legend as he was incredibly measured and smooth and calculating. Then again that's why I love things like this, it's not perfect it gives you a different perspective and insight
Watched a video on that topic from someone else, he gave modern points to every season before and Alain Prost turned out to be the GOAT
Which is ridiculous. When the point system changes you'd have to take different decissions in equal circumstances. When you potentially gain 2 points from 8 to 10 for a P2 to P1 move at the risk of a DNF the calculation is a lot different than when it is from 18 to 25. Just plain and simple mathematical game theory. Some outcomes of finishing orders in races form the past would have been different had the point system been todays point system.
@@endthisnonsense7202 i agree with you, tactically it should have changed the championship. But I do believe also that Prost who was an extremely consistent driver would have definitely benefited a lot from the new point system. All in all I am not surprised that Prost is in the discussion for the goat.
It should be considered that there were fewer races in a season back then.
@@alanpassos468 What is measured here is full season wins/draws/losses versus team mates. The number of races is irrelevant for such a comparison.
@@endthisnonsense7202 Well, it certainly influenced strategies, just like you stated it did when the scoring system changed.
Alain IS the most underrated champion. Hands down.
If the point scoring system was the same back then as it is now, Alain might've won 7 titles.
No. Nelson Piquet is the most underrated champion. Prost often receives the credit that he is due. Piquet never receives. People have the guts to put him behind Mansell, whom he beat for the championship as teammates and who only won one title, while Piquet won three. That's actually probably the reason. The British press never forgave him for defeating Mansell in 1987. It also doesn't help that fact that he is a dick.
@@user-dd4ib5eb1i its all based on opinion me thinkz. When you say he's a dick, its already opinion. You have to look at the stats, Nelson was better than Mansell, but not on Prost/Senna level.
@@KevinHwoarang I'm not discussing who was better. I'm discussing who is the most underrated. And it is Piquet. As I said, he never gets the credit he is due. Prost often does. And I think Piquet was more or less on Prost's level. The stats until 87 indicate that. And Prost blocked Piquet in 1988 at McLaren and lobbied for Senna because he shat his pants in fear of having to share the team with Piquet after he saw what he did to Mansell at Williams. Context: Honda wanted to appoint the other driver and wanted either Piquet, Senna or Nakajima. Ron Dennis vetoed Nakajima, so the choice was among the two Brazilians and Prost thought that it would be easier to beat thhe younger, unexperienced Senna.
@@user-dd4ib5eb1iyeah, he’s an idiot but was one hell of a driver…
@@danielsgrunge exactly
My prediction halfway through the video is Alain Prost.
Because he went up against a lot of great drivers which would give him a lot of wins. The algorithm might also select someone like Rosberg who has gone up against champions.
Damn Prost was a boss.
True. That time was something magical.
This was good fun 😁 Going into it, I felt like one of the biggest issues was going to be the bell curve that is an F1 driver's career. Beating 2012 Schumacher is not comparable to beating 2000 Schumacher.
And for this reason, Rosberg made sure he beat Hamilton in his prime.
As a Prost fan, i find this bringing me a smile on my face, Alonso comes close as he also won in multiple different racing sports
Ok, this is a work of art.
The best part is the fact that you can see other random users examining the chart AND YOU CAN USE YOUR CURSOR TO WAVE AT THEM!
the amount of dedication you put in is absurd...ly awesome ! keep it up dude, you deserve sooo many more subs !
Thank you! Honestly when I started this I thought it would take 2 weeks. After 4 weeks had gone I realised I was in too deep to quit 😂
@@MrVsGarage sweet sunk cost fallacy thingy right ?
I used to claim myself as a statistics maniac. I dived into MotoGP, F1, and WorldSBK in a detailed manner, to the point that I can name all WorldSBK and F1 champion from its inaugural season to now, F1 runner-ups from 1980 to now, WorldSBK runner-ups from 2000 to now, MotoGP champion from 1976 to now, MotoGP runner-ups from 1980 to now, even naming each race's winner from 2000 to now.
But after watching Mr. V's video, he is indeed the undisputed King of F1 Statistics (read: statistics lunatic). 🤝🏼🗿😭
nah bro you're the maddest lad I've ever seen because what the fuck
As a fellow F1, MotoGP & WorldSBK enthusiast and also a stats nerd, I salute you!
I could have given you the same results simply by having watched The Professor in action during the 1980’s. Senna was stunning, and so much fun to watch, but Prost was simply extraordinary. But imo, one of the most exciting races in F1 was (if I recall correctly) Mansell’s extraordinary drive at Mexico in 90 or 91. One of the best races ever. Had that race on VHS for years,but who has a working VCR anymore 😂?
There were some scientists that used this logic for their study to calculate who was fastest over a lap and Heiki Kovaleinen ended up being one of the fastest of all time lol
🐐
Fun fact- he’s the only teammate Hamilton has never out-qualified at Silverstone
As a Brazilian and Senna fan (ofcourse my Top 1), is great to see ACTUAL DATA and AGREE not with the choice of the GOAT, but, the actual GOAT A.K.A Alain Prost. I really like him and he is a great guy. You'll not hear that coming from other Brazilian, the only one who I heard talking great things about him was acutally Ayrton Senna, in the tragic Imola 1994, before the race he saluted Alain who was in the French broadcast TV as an analyst.
"A special hello to our dear friend Alain, we all miss you Alain."
And now I'm almost crying writing this hahaha Thank you for the great vídeo!

As a software engineer, knowing you could’ve automatically generated this graph by reading the spreadsheet in a little bit of code is so painful
Yeah, but this was more entertaining 😂
All info considered, in my opinion that absolute greatest of all time is Niki Lauda. Won a world championship, almost died in a crash, returned in record time, won another championship the next year, retired and then came back,to beat Alain Prost for his third title. No other champion has won a championship after surviving a life threatening crash and no other driver has come out of retirement and been competitive enough to claim a championship. 🐐
@@innes2892You could say he wouldn't have crashed and had to deal with the near death experience if his skill level was higher
@@DeLaCroix1211 name a driver that hasn’t crashed.
Moreover, he didn't even need to plot the graph. With the proper algorithm he could get the desired conclusion from the spreadsheet
Charles Leclerc was beaten by Sainz in 2021. So he is not undefeated...
Then you didn't listen to the video carefully. He took into account the instances the drivers could not start a race due to incidents outside of their control. Leclerc did not start in 2021 in Monaco due to a driveshaft system error discovered on the morning. I guess that's why in his point system Leclerc bested Sainz twice then.
And Leclerc beat Sainz in 2022 by a larger points difference, so they drawn on wins, Leclerc takes it on points I assume
@@piwo647 you mean the driveshaft error that was caused BY A DRIVER ERROR CRASH the day before? it's 100% Leclerc's fault he did not start Monaco

excellent video! I'm new to the f1 world and its videos like this that make me so interested in the history of the sport. I can see the effort you put in this video besides just the graph and research but also the energy you bring and your obvious passion for f1.
The comparison between Senna and Prost is very telling of the shortcomings of this method. Senna and Prost were teammates in very different phases of their development as drivers. Prost was the best version of himself, while Senna was still a long way to achieve his peak. The Senna of 1991 to 1994 was arguably the most skilled F1 driver the world has ever seen.

Prost was the better driver in every year they raced together.
Prost was more consistent hauling in more points. But Senna was the quicker driver, especially in the wet and qualifying.
Imo the fact Prost topped this list, and the fact Senna clearly bested him as teammates, confirms to me that Senna is really the true GOAT
Amazing dedication, looking forward for the next project!
Brother you r real goat in the f1 yt creators community.
Gonna make sure u get ur deserved views.
Thank you! Just making the best stuff I can, I'm glad I can be considered along with the top guys

You could also measure relative finishing positions rather than points, or (which gets even messier) relative quali pace and/or race pace in %.
I coooould but at that point we're in danger of going from "silly idea" to "actual work"
@@MrVsGarageI feel like you probably already crossed that threshold by most people's assessment
After watching this video i clearly realized that this channel is severely underrated show much effort and details my friends you earned a life time subscriber
Sir I have a rabbit hole for you: Who is the best driver under adverse conditions? We can start with weather, bad tracks, etc.... add in having non-competitive cars, equipment malfunctions and bad teammates/owners as variables.
It would be interesting but as we start to look even wider it becomes more and more difficult to research and come to a conclusion. I know people who have (literally) written books about how F1 careers would have been different without DNFs, if other events were included, using different points systems.. etc.
I have thought many times about doing something like this with and I am happy to see someone did it! Running an ELO system on all the results might be a genius move. Can’t wait!
Ngl the fact Prost beat 10 different teammates, 5 of them world champions is actually fucking ridiculous
When you take into account that Senna was the faster of the two, it really was the greatest rivalry of all time and that Senna is probably the closest to the greatest of all time
Prost is on a whole other level when you look at any kind of stats. Obviously not the top of any record tables but when you look into who he had to beat it's mind blowing
all this madness has earned you a new subscriber , fantastic work mate
This is a great video. I admire you for pursuing a goal that is quite impossible to achieve. The story was very well told. Thanks!
This is the your first video I have ever watched. Loved it. Keep it up!
Here's an interesting statistic about Prost. If you take the amount of fastest laps as a percentage of races entered, he was statistically faster in races than Senna. Obviously that doesn't tell the whole story but it does show one reason why Prost was good enough to be in the GOAT conversation.
Absolutely loved this! I’ve actually wondered about this a lot in the past so I was super excited for someone to actually figure it out.
This channel is for taking small F1 ideas like this and spending months pushing them to the extreme!

Amazing video man, just superb.
I think this guy is my favourite UA-camr in history and this is the first video i’ve ever seen from him
A chart that I've wanted to see in a head-to-head teammate out-qualifying percentage. Then also a separate graph showing an average of how many grid places a driver out-qualified their teammate by/got out-qualified. Having (weirdly) endlessly looked over F1 stats, I thought that Pierluigi Martini was going to be high on this list! What he consistently did in the Minardi year-on-year was nothing short of phenomenal. If someone was to make a qualifying graph (of either type I've suggested), I think he'd again be very high on the list!
This was amazingly, congratulations on this beast video. Entertaining and interesting
I hope for the ELO video, you can show the highest peaks, the highest average/ median (which one you think applies best) and the highest elo's when they retired. Good Luck with the video, I really liked this one!
A comment with a titbit... ELO is not an acronym. It's a name and is written like Elo
Awesome stuff, loved it
I'm glad, thank you! ✖️✖️♥️♥️
Comparing F1 drivers with their teammate is interesting. I see the usual lists in the comments, but then 'the best' may be very surprising. Is a driver who ends 10th in a championship with a teammate who ends 18th a better driver than a driver who ends 1st with a teammate on 2nd?
Without too many spoilers, lots of greats are "worse" than someone else if you use this logic.
Hamilton lost to Russell and Alonso
Alonso lost to Ocon
Schumacher lost to Piquet and Rosberg
Etc etc

Amazing content! I'd be very interested in the content you could create with the preparations you already made for this video. Such as "Which championship titles would have been swapped if the current points system was used?"
I could, but I believe I've seen other people making similar videos. I'd rather find a new angle on it, maybe something like what happens if World Champions aren't allowed to compete anymore
@@MrVsGarage That sounds interesting. The one I suggested was just an example. Since you have all the data now, it should be just a matter of coming up with an idea.
@@MrVsGarage Also, I appreciate your unique content and trying new approaches. So please keep doing what you're doing!
Maybe you do not know but that was a really nice data science project involving direct networks and degree centrality! It is also fun to see that closed loops caused problems in your original ranking which is a common issue :D Is the data available in any form? Great work btw!
Does anyone know what the name of the background sound loop in the "Rules" Chapter from 2:08 to 4:45 ? is called? @Mr V's Garage maybe you can help me directly please kindly. The genre of music or the instrument it comes from is also greatly appreciated.
This was great. Love your style
You could improve the graph by adding weight to the arrows, therefore giving a score to the driver. That arrow could be a function of how many championships did the teammate win, or raced or how many race wins........ and still being objetive. That way, for example Alonso wouldnt be as handicaped as it is now
This video is basically the STFU card to all the new fans who uses points stats to determine a driver’s greatness instead of using their abilities and other variables
5:27 so you're telling me alonso would have won the 2007 world Championship if they had the points system we have now? Lmao thats wild
Kimi still wins with the current system, by more points actually. But instead of tied 2nd place, Alonso beats Hamilton who then comes third.
If I'd have to crunch the numbers on who is the GOAT of F1 UA-cam there's alot of others that beat you in views & subs. But if we add context and emotion we all know that you are the GOAT
I fully thought you were going to imply for one of US to make the elo system, but no YOU MADMAN. Really looking forward to the next video

No one has had so many world champion drivers as team mates as the professor and he beat them all. Prost came sixth in his first race and out performed his team mate in qualifying. He also would have had more world championships with the modern points system.
Lauda beat Prost in 1984 and Senna beat Prost in 1988. And Senna could've beaten him in 1989 if not for a black-flagged Mansell crashing into him in Portugal and Balestre's shenanigans in Suzuka.

Yes, thank you for the history lesson. The 1988 season I think Prost had more points but Senna had more race wins and so won the championship. Prost was very consistent in terms of bringing home points over the course of a season, Senna was the quicker driver but on a clear track without back markers Prost could hold his own. In qualifying and in the wet Senna was an undisputed king, no one could get near him. I remember those days quite clearly, I've been watching f1 since 1985.

I'm Brazilian, I love Senna, but for me it's clear that Prost is the GOAT.
There's one thing that wasn't mentioned in the video, besides having 4 championships and having won several champions, he was also 2nd in the championship at least 4 times.
Mate, maximum respect for this. I made a monthly chart tracking the top 100 most popular board games on board game geek since 2001, and while that was a big spreadsheet, it aint nothing compared to this.
And Prost was the real deal, i kinda like the idea of him as the GOAT, even though as a senna fan i remember the 88/89 seasons pretty well

The biggest problem with evaluating F1 is that we must assume a level playing field in some capacity. F1 is one of the few sports that's intentionally designed not to have that.
So much effort. great video
This deserves much more views.
According to ChatGPT The goat of F1 is Michael Schumacher
Love the video, but I would have done it based on the head-to-head finishing position of each driver instead of points, and stipulated that both drivers have to have finished the race for it to count
Love the commitment
That was amazing, man. I think I learned something from this cursed chart though, that I actually already knew. In my opinion, Fangio is the GOAT, because he consistently shows up at the top, no matter what the method to classify is. Oh except on one: wins at a young age, because he was a dinosaur who whooped everybody's rear bumper in style. Just an awesome boss.

Thank you for your effort!
This is a great video I think it will get this channel to the hundreds of thousands of subs
You're absolutely correct. You can't compare drivers of different eras.
But, what fun. It, like any method, fails but there is a nobility in trying. So, props for that.
The main issue: racing cars used to be way, way, waaaaaaaayyyyyyyy less reliable than the modern era.
When does the 'modern era' begin?
No idea.
But regardless, how do you calculate that in? Create a 'curve' where points are available only to races finished?
How do you tell a broken car vs. a driver error created broken car?
Oh dear.
In any case, Prost is the best, so well done. 😅

Subbed as soon as you said you coded an elo engine, fantastic work my dude
This shows to me that Prost time really was the F1 golden era. Senna was the goat to me. They kinda push each other to the peak.
In 3 days, I have checked your channel around 20 times to see if the elo video is out. Well played.
Sadly I can't edit that fast 😅
@@MrVsGarage Damn, I feel that. But you can reply to comments fast
Crazy amount of work lol, but the video came out great! Keep up the good work.
Can't wait for the yearly updates on the graph 😊
I dont usually comment ever but HOLY FUCK YOUR DEDICATION IS UNBELIEVABLE 😭
Great watch 11/10
Good work💪🏼
I respect your dedication :D
Whoever followed F1 in 80’s knew Alain Prost was the one to be beaten in sport.
