I think the fact that Ferrari is in the title fight despite having the clear fastest car for just 1 race this entire season shows how they have the best and most consistent driver line up on the grid. Letting go of Carlos was such a strange move. Both Mclaren drivers have been dropping regular points here and there, and RBR have Checo.
Would say its been more than 1 race still, Ferrari were mighty at Monaco too but its incredible how close they're to McLaren and passed Red Bull in the WCC despite them generally having a worse car than both teams.
@askeladden450 The guy replacing Sainz is also quite consistent, albeit in the fourth-fastest car. He also has two race wins, whilst driving a slower car, and has the most points of any driver not sat in a Red Bull, McLaren or Ferrari. All the pro-Sainz arguments are hypothetical - the objective data suggests Hamilton would match Sainz in a Ferrari.
Lando and Max will keep going at it with each other in the remaining races. Charles and Carlos are clever and cool enough to capitalize from that. They have a real shot at WCC.
Cue the endless comments decrying Sainz being replaced by the man directly beneath him in the WDC standings, despite Hamilton also having two wins this year in a Mercedes that is slower than Sainz's Ferrari...
Sainz is a pretty solid driver but there's this thing that whenever he wins a race, and he has just 4 to his name, he's almost considered a reincarnation of Senna. That said I wouldn't have touched the Ferrari lineup... let's see if Lewis is able to prove me wrong.
I think they're very similar drivers, fast but measured. Both excellent strategists too. It will be interesting to see next season. I'm not sure who is the fastest drive, out of the two, at the moment.
The Mercedes was the fastest in Silverstone and Spa, just like how the Ferrari was fastest (minus Verstappen) in Australia and Mexico. Getting rid of Carlos is insane, Ferrari do have by far the best and most stable driver lineup on the grid. However, Lewis is the only one who MIGHT be a upgrade.

It will be hilarious to see if Mclaren throws this away despite having the best/second best car for 90% of the season and their main rival having a Perez sized problem when it comes to scoring points, it's honestly incredible how I've been on this planet since the late 90s and McLaren only has one WCC in my lifetime And this would be despite the infamous Spain package update from Ferrari which combined with a shocking performance from Ferrari at Canada meant they were not really anywhere for 6 races after the emotional Monaco win. Also a certain man hailing from Stevenage must be smiling at this upturn in Ferrari performance
The races in Baku and Singapore were missed opportunities. Charles not defending aggressively again. Piastri in Baku and Carlos crashed with Checo. Singapore quali ruined the chances to score more points and even a win.
Ferrari won the 2008 constructors title. Yet everyone still talks about the drivers title being won by Hamilton. I think you might be in the minority here.
Ferrari has a dream pairing at the moment, I would even say the best overall pairing at the moment. So sad Sainz had to go like that. I think Sainz has made the biggest leap during the last two years.
I keep thinking about what an incredible driver pair Williams will have, though. If the investment by the owners pays off in car improvements next year, they could be best of the rest, and maybe real contenders in 2026.
Too be fair. Leclerc didn't have any Friday practice for his setup since in 2nd practice the setup they could run was prescribed from Pirelli and thus he was behind Sainz and couldn't catch up anymore. But if Ferrari had switch positions in stint one where Leclerc was faster than Sainz and switched back on the hard tire stint, then they could have gotten a 1 & 2.
If Sainz doesn't do his usual 3 good races then disappear they have a real chance. Leclerc has been on it this year consistently, just need Sainz there with him
@@Neutralinosure but that Abu Dhabi performance needed to count and he couldn't even finish in the points. Not saying he's a bad driver by any stretch. But OP has a point. He has peaks but can't sustain it.
@@nisuraperera6068 That was one weekend. His peaks are very high but he is also pretty consistent, that’s how he was able to be very close to Leclerc in points in 2021 and 2023. And fairly close this year too.
Piastri needs to get back to the kind of form he showed between Austria and Baku . He was drubbed by Lando in Singapore and Mexico and finished behind in COTA even with Lando's penalty having been six tenths slower in qualifying Really McLaren has dropped so many points this season they only have themselves to balme if they win no titles. They should have been out of sight by COTA and then Ferrari's resurgence wouldn't have mattered.
Ferrari is definitely in the mix for the constructors’ championship, and I wouldn't count Leclerc out of the drivers’ championship either. His points gap to Norris is smaller than Norris to Verstappen.
Remember that they didn't bring any upgrade in USA and Mexico, only the same front wing but with more flexible materials. We'll see how it gets when it bring the new major upgrades in the next races.
how the hell constructors championship is supposed to be the lesser of the 2 is beyond me... not that it is not indeed believed to be the lesser one by most people. I just find it baffling to be so. I am always finding the most important to be the constructors. I support a team though, not specific drivers. First team, then drivers.
Confuses me every time I hear it. 😅In F2 or F3 I can sort of understand it because drivers compete in equal machinery, but in F1 it's all about the combined team effort. So for me it's constructors title > drivers title.
Ferarri have constantly had the 2nd or sometimes 3rd fastest car throughout the whole season and they now get their reward for it. Exciting to see if McLaren or Ferrari gets it in the end.
Whatever anyone says this is the best season since 21, maybe even before as each week there seems to legitimately be 5/6 drivers that could win, shame there’s only 1 more year of these regs
That’s how it goes lately, eh? The grid tightens up a year or two before a sweeping regs change, and then a team inevitably nails them has a dominant era.
Best season in the last 10 years is still 2018 as of now (after the Mexican race). In 2018 we had 21 race and we had 6 wins, 24 podiums, 6 Pole positions and 571 points. In 2024 (after 20 races) we have 5 wins, 18 podiums, 4 Pole Position and 537 points (we also have some points score in 4 sprints this year) Close call but i still think 2018 was a better car
I bet he's a relieved man. He must've been worried just after his move to Ferrari was confirmed, when they had a dip and Mercedes had their brief rennaissance. Right now it's looking once again like he's made the right call.
a good result in Singapore would have made the title much more closer. i still cannot believe the team threw away podium points with some poor tyre prep in a circuit that suits rhe car so well! anyways, waiting since 2008!! come on!
When people said that Hamilton was regretting signing with Ferrari a few months ago when their performance had fallen off, and when Mercedes was looking very good, I pointed out that a lot can change before the beginning of next season. Even still, I can't say that I actually expected things to turn around THIS quickly for them either, I only knew that it was possible, and far too soon to right Ferrari off for championship contention next year. By the same reasoning, it's also far too soon to assume that this trend will continue for next season either.
The problem Red Bull is being plagued with is that they had a car that wasn't legal from the start of the season until around the 7th round when and where it was discovered they were playing outside the rules and were subsequently told remove those illegal bits and we'll keep it quiet for as long as we can. Once that happened the playing field was essentially leveled and since their car was built WITH those illegal components (there's no way Newey didn't have a hand in this), The planned upgrades weren't going to bring as much improvement as was planned because they were designed to work with the illegal system as a whole. Since McLaren was fully legal, their upgrade program continued forward and worked in unison with the existing system and the directive to make their wings more rigid didn't really affect them at all and thus they swept past the performance of their illegal rival, and Ferrari's development program was similarly effective to that for McLaren, but their car isn't quite as versatile and adaptive to as many track types as the McLaren. At certain tracks Ferrari are solid but on others they struggle to get the setup perfect because of the characteristics of the car, but they're never that far off.
Neither Ferrari nor McLaren have to thank them for the updates that have been made to the car, they have to thank Red Bull and Checo who has not been seen on the podium since April.
Why do people write empty meaningless comments like that ? Of course Ferrari will be competitive next year but to covertly imply and suggest Ferrari will wipe the floor the comepetition is pushing . From what I here Ferrari 2026 PU has issues too . Lewis hasn't made the move because he thinks Ferrari is going to be top dog he's done it to top unp his retirement fund.
Another random thought - has Lewis timed the move perfectly YET again? It was only earlier this year we were wondering if he probably had buyer's remorse!
Ferrari has always been close but their drivers have been too inconsistent when the car is good or their strategy has been a joke. I think Lewis at least brings the consistency.
Ferrari started at the wrong foot, but they are going to finish this season in the right place in the right direction. And then AM slaps us with their NEWey design and a Stroll WDC
It'll be so funny if Ferrari beat Red Bull by 6 points or fewer as that'll mean the rookie Bearman sealed their victory over the previous champions. How long until Ferrari admit they've made a mistake with their signing Hamilton over Sainz? I give it until the Summer break.
Ferrari have made a mistake in replacing Carlos Sainz who is in his prime with Lewis Hamilton who is no longer in his prime and close to retirement. Also Carlos Sainz has fully adapted to everything in Ferrari as he is driving for them since 2021. While Lewis Hamilton will take at least an year to get adapted to everything. I hope Ferrari will win the constructor's championship this year and in 2025 if the car is as good as now will win the driver's championship with Charles Leclerc but lose the constructor's championship due to Lewis Hamilton taking at least an year to fully adapt to the car along with almost similar car perfomance between Mclaren, Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes. It is almost certain about the peformance of the cars of top teams being at least as close as this year due to cost cap, cfd and wind tunnel limits based on the constructor's championship position finally working to make the car pefomance similar at least for the top 4 teams. It will be even better if midfield teams can fight for podiums.
One who has shown he can't drive sub-optimal cars, unlike George Russell, who has spent his early F1 career driving uncompetitive cars. Sainz is a much better driver, especially when it comes to race strategy, able to make his own plans if need be, instead of listening to the team and then complaining about the strategy when it doesn't work out
The Hamilton decision is above Fred. John Elkann lead those discussions, especially considering Hamilton will be the highest paid member of Ferrari by far
Don't get your hopes up for the Scuderia _just_ yet - Ferrari are *perennial* choke artists and have been so since the return to Full Slicks in 2009. There's still time for Ferrari to fumble the bag again and enter a historic new low in terms of title drought, and that won't go unnoticed by Ferrari Corporate. Let's not forget that Ferrari hiring Hamilton was a Corporate decision and _not_ Vasseur's. If a Hamilton Hire is a Vote of No Confidence, then should Ferrari lose the title again who knows what they'll do for a full-on Coup D'etat?
That was because of the way they caught traffic. There was a 1-2 tenth difference between them a lap. Then charles caught backmarkers every lap for about 5 laps in the 6/7/8 complex, then had to sit behind them in the esses, weras Lando got to them in the stadium, then got the DRS down the 2 massive straights, which cut a 4 and a bit second gap down massively over just a couple of laps. The Ferrari, especially with Charles, is good at managing the fronts, like in Monza, because he leans on the Rears more
I see Honda are in trouble for over spending. Redbull have now had issues with over spending, illegal floor/plank, illegal aero, illegal breaking, illegal driving, illegal engine provider... they only have tyres left.
Controversial opinion - Piastri is deliberately under performing at the moment so he’s not forced to help Lando in the title run - whereas Sainz and Leclerc are both out to run well for team
Lewis isn’t dumb! He knew that Ferrari would give him the best chance at getting his 8th should be 9th world title. Ferrari made him their number 1 driver next season! John elkan is running the show and he and Lewis have a great relationship!
It will be a tough competition between Charles & Lewis..One is a qualifying master other one is best for race pace.. Tough lineup to beat by their rival..
@ Charles makes mistakes under pressure. Plus John elkan wants to make sure Lewis is the number one driver. Look how much they are paying Lewis ! If they thought Charles was the number one driver they wouldn’t bring the greatest of all time to Ferrari. Lewis will make 100 million a year!! That is a ton of money! Charles is a great driver but he isn’t Lewis Hamilton!

Ferrari have made a mistake in replacing Carlos Sainz who is in his prime with Lewis Hamilton who is no longer in his prime and close to retirement. Also Carlos Sainz has fully adapted to everything in Ferrari as he is driving for them since 2021. While Lewis Hamilton will take at least an year to get adapted to everything. I hope Ferrari will win the constructor's championship this year and in 2025 if the car is as good as now will win the driver's championship with Charles Leclerc but lose the constructor's championship due to Lewis Hamilton taking at least an year to fully adapt to the car along with almost similar car perfomance between Mclaren, Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes. It is almost certain about the peformance of the cars of top teams being at least as close as this year due to cost cap, cfd and wind tunnel limits based on the constructor's championship position finally working to make the car pefomance similar at least for the top 4 teams. It will be even better if midfield teams can fight for podiums.

There's still time for Ferrari to fumble the bag again and enter a historic new low in terms of title drought, and that won't go unnoticed by Ferrari Corporate.
Let's not forget that Ferrari hiring Hamilton was a Corporate decision and _not_ Vasseur's. If a Hamilton Hire is a Vote of No Confidence, then should Ferrari lose the title again who knows what they'll do for a full-on Coup D'etat?
Lewis making another career move to be envied off 😂😂😂
Like 2007?
Finally! Thanks
It’s piastri underperforming and max sabotaging lando at every chance.
Just one min at the end talks maybe 20% of the title of this video.
Another reason why i dont subscribe to channels like these.
“Battling with max verstappen” … translation: “being PUNTED off the track by Max crashtappen”
Again...Hamilton makes the perfect move to a team on the brink of greatness...
And Lewis Hamilton smiles……………
We nolonger street car 😊
Ferrari will win the championship sure thing
McLaren is still far stronger especially on its tyre deg.
The way Norris caught and passed leclerc was scary
That was because of the way they caught traffic. There was a 1-2 tenth difference between them a lap. Then charles caught backmarkers every lap for about 5 laps in the 6/7/8 complex, then had to sit behind them in the esses, weras Lando got to them in the stadium, then got the DRS down the 2 massive straights, which cut a 4 and a bit second gap down massively over just a couple of laps.
The Ferrari, especially with Charles, is good at managing the fronts, like in Monza, because he leans on the Rears more
@ you know your stuff
double dnf incoming
The reason is Perez sucks.
Since the first four/five races of 2022, he's nowhere to be seen, especially this season, disgraceful.
@@JohnWiku He was good-ish in 22,
Lewis will win his 9th next year!!!
Nope. Not falling for it.
I see Honda are in trouble for over spending. Redbull have now had issues with over spending, illegal floor/plank, illegal aero, illegal breaking, illegal driving, illegal engine provider... they only have tyres left.
Controversial opinion - Piastri is deliberately under performing at the moment so he’s not forced to help Lando in the title run - whereas Sainz and Leclerc are both out to run well for team
Too long
Yea… your gonna regret uploading this
and that tw@t Hamilton made the right choice again..
Okay massive hopium butI hope Carlos wins every coming race and ferrari gets a wdc
Carlos is already mathematically out of contention.
It would be better of Ferrari if Charles won those races, not Carlos
Lewis isn’t dumb! He knew that Ferrari would give him the best chance at getting his 8th should be 9th world title. Ferrari made him their number 1 driver next season! John elkan is running the show and he and Lewis have a great relationship!
you will have to discount his first title. mclaren cheated back then.
It will be a tough competition between Charles & Lewis..One is a qualifying master other one is best for race pace..
Tough lineup to beat by their rival..
Ferrari made who their no.1 driver? Over Charles? Really?? 😂
@ you are underestimating Charles in race pace. His pace in races is no joke. Remember his antics with that tractor in 2020.
@ Charles makes mistakes under pressure. Plus John elkan wants to make sure Lewis is the number one driver. Look how much they are paying Lewis ! If they thought Charles was the number one driver they wouldn’t bring the greatest of all time to Ferrari. Lewis will make 100 million a year!! That is a ton of money! Charles is a great driver but he isn’t Lewis Hamilton!
