Max Verstappen is ABSOLUTELY RAPID. Why? Well, he has the best car.
But, so does Perez. And where Max started 14th at Spa, Perez started second, And Max STILL won by just under 20 seconds.
So what makes him so outrageously fast? And are those two Red Bulls definitely the same? Because Max’s car looks like an absolute rocketship.
So I’m going to use my years of Racing Experience and driver coaching to show you HOW Max is finding so much time.
Let's get into it.

It was Stroll's tear-off which affected Leclerc. It looked like Max's but some people did some "forensic" video watching and they said it was Stroll's. Personally, I couldn't tell either way, and it's not like it was on purpose, regardless of whose it was.
you can clearly see it was from stroll
You can see max his blew over le clerc in the air,
This guy hates max, go figure

Why can't they just dump them in the car? Apparently, that is what Vettel does.

For the record, Selling "Lord" titles in Scotland is a fraudulent scheme, since this type of mini-land sales are expressly forbidden by Scottish law. You don't even get to own that land, because the company you "bought" it from retains all rights to the land and can pretend to sell it again infinitely (they're skirting the legal boundaries on this). You can call yourself whatever you want under Scottish law, but that doesn't mean the title has any meaning, you might as well call yourself "Pokémon Master" and it'd be as accurate and legit. Please don't promote rip-offs.

@@janneroppola_photographer I never said it was a good idea. It's about as useless as naming a star after someone.
Best part of Spa was the last lap when Leclerc went for fastest lap only to get stuck coming out of the pit. Too funny.
Maybe one day Ferrari will use real time telemetry instead of reactive emotions only.

Well Russell has been outdriving Hamilton mostly. LeClerc has mostly been better than Sainz. But yea nowhere the gap is as big (if we remove Latifi from the equation).
Niki Lauda in 2016 about Max Verstappen (after his first F1 win) "This is a once in a century talent. There has never been a driver like him and if you ask me there will never be another with that level of natural talent"
Do NOT spread fakefacts. Laude never did say that. Lauda sad that he is a rare talent and those come once in a decade.

@@idontexist2868 wow someone's salty
@@idontexist2868 you are wrong... nikki lauda did say that and he even added MORE.
he also said: he switched from the junior team to the main team and won the first race in a new car.... that has never been done before AND IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN i dare say!
That point about Max being patient and waiting for a safer moment to make an inevitable pass is the biggest sign of his improvement and growth. Young Max has an incident, current Max waits for a better moment. He is in a class of his own at the moment. Personally I don't support him but there's no denying he is just by far the best on the grid!
Well...he actually didn't change that much when you would've followed him from his early karting days, where he also was pretty dominant in the end.
When you do not have one of the fastest vehicle/engine combination on the grid, you simply have to race differently to stand out and pick your chances.
When you are new you have to be ruthlessly clear in how you battle on track, earn your spot, and the risks involved doing that are valid as long as you don't have a chance on a championship.
You go for successes and exposure by finding the limits on almost everything.
He did that very well imo.
Even to a level where they had to change several rules to stop him and of course others of exploiting the gaps in existing rules.
Once circumstances changed Max changed his approach.
In short,
He's imo the best adapting racedriver I've ever seen, and I'm a motorsport nut for over 40 years.
@@EricW6800 couldnt said it better!
@@EricW6800 That's a fair comment. I disagree slightly but understand what you mean by him wanting to stand out and therefor pushing the limits. I still believe he has learnt to be more patient. I can remember numerous times where it was obvious he was going to get by an opponent but chose the wrong moment to do so and ended up hurting only himself. Either way. He is currently unstoppable!
@@spencermartin5622
Of course he made mistakes, some even twice and gained experience in the proces.
So we are on the same page for sure.
But his abilities to adapt are phenomenal.
@@EricW6800 a very sane comment
A small correction: the tear off that went into Leclerc's air duct came from Stroll, not from Verstappen. F1 Insights on UA-cam did a frame by frame / side by side analysis of the onboards of Verstappen, Leclerc and Stroll and the tear off definitely came from Stroll.

I saw that when they saw that 1️⃣ from Max at their rear view mirror, they just let him overtake out of sheer terror. Or maybe respect.
Max looks like Vettel from 2013. Absolute monster on track
Something very similar when drivers back in the day saw yellow or red helmet.
Yup, it's terror. You either defend him, lose time and he passes you anyway or just let him breeze by and carry on with your race. Clever strategy is the latter even if a bit craven
@@mrkic23 You mean Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher?
@@Altroz115 yes
He has clearly a superb control over his rear tyre grip.
He can balance between grip and drift like no other.
This allows him to exit corners perfectly positioned for maximum acceleration.
As well as extreme control in the wet.
his control on wet is a flawless 360 spin and still do a fastest lap time,
He can even risk a spin in the last round, just to generate a yellow flag and protect his fastest round by destroying any attempts of others on fresh tyres.
Did anyone notice the yellow flag in sector 1, shown after Max drifted into his last corner?
@@jaimea2958 a 360 spin is not flawless control, by definition
@@nickgovier well to be fair he does the 360 to recover lost control unlike other cases when the driver loses control and does a 180 (or any other angle that makes the car lose all it's momentum)
@@henriwolbrink The yellow flags were because of the lack of an inlap, I believe
It was just the perfect storm for max. Little porpoising at the top speed, lesser down force setup, a very smooth steering and taking care of the tires.

@@emerald39 dont be sad just enjoy the moment
@@emerald39 not as much as merc did with their underhand tactics in influencing the engine TD for the old generation since they had insider info from brawn.
it wasnt verstappens tear-off, it was from Stroll
Max was born to be a Red Bull driver. His driving style just perfectly suited for what RB wants in their car. He is also insanely talented. He is a world championship driver.
Checo is almost fighting with the car because it really doesn't suit his driving style, giving him some level of discomfort. His high experience is what made him wrestles the car to P2. He's also the guinea pig; they're experimenting new stuff to his car while Max keeps the fastest ones (seeing as Checo gets a new floor while Max does not for Dutch GP).
His style is aggressive, unstoppable like a tanker Lorry,. Paired it with the Honda engine, given the Honda engineers absolutely loved drivers who didn't hesitate to push their machines to it's limits, and Red Bull's expertise in taking risks all the time.
Red Bull is a team that is drowned in adrenaline, and Max after 2021 with all that pressure, it has solidified his confidence
Max got the new floor in Spa. Checo gets it in Zandvoort.
Perez is doing great. he is second in the championship.
@@starkahmed43 I heard Checo actually reverted to the Silverstone floor in Zandvoort, to see if an older revision can help mitigate the discomfort Checo feels with the current car.
@@halofreak1990 Makes sense. That has been his latest dominant race. I truly, truly, hope it's not his last for this season.
It was Stroll's tear-off. It was a tear-off fitting Stilo helmets which only Bottas and Stroll use.
Most of the field uses Bell and I think RBR + Schumacher use Schuberth. Arai was used by Max and Albon until a couple of years ago.
Max has a different level of car/driver relationship over the entire grid. As you said, giving him an advantage managing tires, which is key for everyone.
remember same with seb nd redbull, he had such a nice and similar relatioship back then, his tyres were always better than others
My assumption is because built the car to suit his driving style. A driving style nobody else on the grid has. It’s the style that makes him unique. That’s only gonna make it 1000 times tougher for whoever partners for him.
Dominant driver in a dominant car. Now we see why Mercedes and Lewis were so good for so long.

Oh now you see it 😂😂😂. "Now we see" 😂😂 yeah we all saw it for 8 years.
Driver 61 always a fan of your info. You can say Max pulled a Senna for that Spa Race! Keep up the great work and congrats on being a Lord!
It was Max who brought me back into F1 after I gave up when Schumacher retired. Something about him is exciting to watch. I know ppl bring up Seb but even when Max was driving a not so great RBR he was trying something & had the hunger to win!
Having a decent lead in points definitely helps Max. If it was like 2021, he more than likely would have taken more chances.
It's the here and now..
Not only the that, but the other drivers are not going to fight his overtakes. The other drivers have nothing to gain by fighting him on track now, they will just hurt their own times.

The thing is Max requires a car with sharpy front end that works every time but this comes with a tricky rear end that hurts Sergio's confidence. Checo prefers a more balanced front and rear end. That's the reason why Red Bull's second drivers have not been able to match Max's pace. Bcs Red Bull produce cars that suit his style way too heavily. But when you have a close title fight it's a big disadvantage in the WCC like in 2021. It's like wearing someone else's shoes and trying to match him. That's a big advantage in a WDC fight but it will hurt you in the WCC bcs when you have a title fight this close as last year you need your second driver to do well.
I love it when people make comments like this like they know 😂.
A car with a more sharp front end and loose rear will always be faster than a balanced car. Drivers that can handle it will be better.
@@PDXmerckx oh yeo i forgot that. But at the start of the season Red Bull had a pretty good front end with stable rear end that Checo then could work better with the car. But since they introduced upgrades that made even sharpier the front end and this came with the rear end being loose which has been hurting Checo's confidence. It's just different driving style. But since Max is Red Bull's best chance to win championships so they should build a car around his style so it makes sense but as i said when you have a title fight like last year you need your second driver to do well. Bcs right now Checo is wearing Max's shoes and is trying to match him which is very hard.
It isn’t complicated. The reason Max is faster than his team mates (after Riciardo) and Hamilton was faster than his team mates is they are able to adapt their driving styles to new cars/new regulations better than their team mates as the season progresses.
Also as the season progresses, drivers like Max/Lewis are able to provide feedback to their engineers that demonstateably improves performance better than their team mates hence it looks like the car is built around Max/Lewis’s driving style (which in part is the case).
The end result is typically a driver/car package that emerges and is dominant for a period of time until the regulations change - Schumacher/Ferrari, Vettel/Red Bull, Hamilton/Mercedes, and now Verstappen/Red Bull.
The 2018 season at Ferrari showed a similar thing. Ferrari made their car suit Kimi as well as Seb, causing Seb to spin a lot as he couldn't handle the unstable rear end.
Max has proven himself beyond doubt, as has Newey. Together, and the rest of RB wow... What a team.. ohh and Christian and Helmut are ok too lol
Absolutely 🇳🇱😁🇳🇱
I like this channel over other more opinionated but less informative channels so I don't know how fast you guys can churn out content but I'd be very interested if you guys could do a post race analysis or summary after every race weekend
Top notch! To paraphrase, Max slows down in most corners, to get a faster exit speed, except for the final corner, as the run to the finish line is short. Brilliant!
I'm also so curious what's happening in the back end. Checo looked very upset on his interviews for the last few races.
It's because he's confused on how max can be so fast , same happened to mazepin who thought mick had a better car
I've seen some people say it's just jealousy that Max is so much quicker. Personally I think he just can't figure out what Max is doing that he can't or hasn't figured out. Checo is very quick but Max is just blowing him out of the water. I'd be frustrated and confused about it as well.

I thought Perez confirmed that RB made a Ferrari style new floor (based on some cut-outs) that makes the care more balanced. Which Perez has used, Max didn’t use that floor because he prefers the car slightly oversteering.
I think one thing that is really impressive is that at the start of the season Max was fighting for the title and was considered the best driver in a car that didn't suit his style at all.
On Hamilton's picture it seems like Mercedes tried a high rake concept! 🕵️
Hahaha. They nearly went for a fully vertical rake. Very brave
Braking when straight means more rolling for the tyres to dissipate heat into brakes, if turning when braking, you end up with slight "drifting", which dissipate heat into the tyres
Excess heating causes wear, for brakes VS for tyres is the same, but brakes can dissipate heat into the air from the cooling system, so it reduces wear that way.
Late braking usually means ongoing braking whilst starting the turn, meaning that the front tyres are loaded on momentum and trying to turn on them will cause them to heat up and wear faster
Early braking usually means that there's less braking whilst on the turn, so less loading on the front to cause excessive heating on the tyres, and the car's momentum is balanced on both front and rear wheels when turning, so less excess heating and wear
Also, early braking means more heat dissipated into the brakes than into the tyres, allowing the tyres to be used for accelerating rather than braking
It's better to use the tyres to accelerate because it is rolling friction rather than static friction when turning. All late braking drivers will suffer from this issue, getting cornering speed at the expense of their tyres early on, and then when the tyres are worn, not able to make the fast cornering later on.
Tyres should be prioritised for accelerating over cornering rather than being forced to do both.
the answer is 'because RB tells Checo to get out the way' aka 'team orders'
Great video. Always the best.
Thank you for this video, I spent a lot of time on f1-tempo trying to figure it out. Glad you came to the same conclusion as me: He is just ridiculously quick, with a few other things working in his favor. Must be so demoralizing for Perez.
Actually, the car started with incredibly different driving requirements. They tailored it to Max impossibly well
No no no. It’s all Adrian Newey. Red Bull is the only automatic self driving car on the grid that can move without an engine or a steering. Adrian Newey is a genius. Since I quoted his name, I’m a formula 1 expert now.
Max put to shame every team mate he's had. He's in a league of his own.
Riccardo was faster early seasons
He was only 18 back then..
@@zebhoevenaars6837 what does that have to do with the initial statement?
I'm not a fan of red bull or Max Verstappen but I have to admit, the guy is in a league of his own at the moment. Makes driving a F1 car look easy
@windfall starts 14th, finishes 1st by over 17 seconds. He would be leaps and bounds in front in the championship if it wasn't for reliablabtly issues. Perez is in the same car, Leclerc, somewhat understandly with strategy but he has also cost himself races with the mistakes he has made. Tell me a mistake Verstappen has made this season?
@windfall so what you're saying is that Max has made mistakes and then carried on to win the race or finish in the points? I'm not a Max fan but there is denying he is way out in front at the minute when it comes to driving ability. All the data backs that up. His biggest attribute is his consistentcy
@windfall yeah I can see where you're coming from. I just think after France. Leclerc has lost confidence in the car and I believe he's given up on his title chances. Which is a shame, because earlier in the season the battle between them two were superb. I actually think the reliability issues for red bull were down to Max pushing the car as much as possible because of Leclerc and Sainz
@windfall yeah the strategists at Ferrari haven't had the best of seasons. I think we will see Mercedes back up there towards the end of this season too. Be great to see a 3 team battle next year
What do you mean with engine modes? I thought they weren't allowed to change those anymore after parc ferme.
The battle for both championships effectively ended at Spa. What's left is seeing if Mercedes or Ferrari can find anything to close the gap to Red Bull and how the midfield battle sorts out.
Nah, it was pretty much over 3 or 4 races ago
Only interesting thing remains is whether Merc can beat Ferrari for 2nd position
@@leomurry8195
It was on life support. At Spa, the plug was pulled.
Perez needs to up his game in order to reel in the constructors tbh. If the Ferrari's can (yeah that's going to be hard considering) consistently finish in front of Perez the consturctors may be in jeopardy for RB
@@viincanity Red Bull will be fine. Perez is tied for second and Verstappen has a huge lead. Mercedes still won in 2018 (I think that was the year) when Bottas was only fourth in the drivers’ championship.
I thought there was the engine mode change after Mercedes party mode. As I remember the cars cant turn up the engine and if they turn it down during the race they cant turn it back up. They can only play with the deployment of the electric motor. Did they remove that rule with the new cars?
I think you are correct, engine modes can only go down after the party mode bs.

Bottas was an amazing driver with multiple wins and many pole positions, and he still sometimes finished 49 seconds behind Hamilton. Some people just get the better car setup and strategy calls.
More than the better car setup, I would call it the tailored car setup. With how close they were at the beginning of the season, it might not have been surprising to see Sergio outperforming Max if the number one roll was inverted.

Nice analysis mate! Maybe you can do analyze Oscar Pistorius driving style and how it suits to Mclaren or does he struggle to change also style?
Where do you find all the high quality images showed in the video?
So, could it be worth it, espacially for a top team, to take penaltys for swapping old engines for new ones at tracks like spa and monza (where overtaking is relatively easy) and then use these ‘extra’ engines for more power during other races.
After Spa and with the Ferrari strategists, the sky is the limit
*especially. A new engine doesn’t automatically mean it will be so much faster. Halve tamme, bent u nieuw met de sport?
Definitly, Mercedes prove that last year, Hamilton changes wasnt about wear, was all about strategy
Because 1. he's very quick; 2. maximizing Verstappen's potential is the goal of the entire team including Perez (even if he disagrees... "but ok"). Sergio's strategy is usually dictated not by where he needs to be to win, but where Verstappen needs him to be in order to hinder Ferrari (or whoever is in contention). We've just seen this at Spa. That's how Red Bull has been operating at least since the late 2000s. We've seen a similar story with the likes of Vettel and Schumacher, who later failed to replicate anything similar to such a dominance within a different team that doesn't operate the same way.
Schumacher was 40 years old and out of the sport for 3 years, the man had no fire in him anymore. Vettel would dominate if he had a great car but Ferrari was always behind Mercedes, just compare Vettel and Kimi when they were together. Btw, Mercedes did the same with Hamilton and Bottas, used the latter as nothing more than a pawn for Lewis results, when Hamilton had good team mates he never dominate as well, just look how he is performing badly under the pressure of Russell.
Great to see you in the Praga.
Well, this is the easiest question to answer... Some drivers are BETTER than others. For a variety of reasons. And it always will be like this.
I thought it was Stroll’s tear off in Leclerc’s brake duct.
It was
Max is the fastest driver in the grid.
Watched corner 8 at the Dutch GP last sunday. The drivers take that corner in many different ways all the time. Max is the only one taking that corner in exactly the same way, the entire race.
2:22 😅 Was very funny, Driver61!
very insightful. There are a number of races whereby Verstappen did not qualify as the fastest car but produced an amazing race pace during the race and win it. Your insights has shed light on this. Amazing insight.
Because he is almost robotic in consistency. While other drivers can do really good laps 7/10 laps, Max has near perfect laps every single time
Imo, Red Bull went with Max whilst developing the car, as he wasn’t comfortable at the start of the season. And then upgrades took the car away from Checo
Max was in front of checo even at the start of the season. Max just knows how to adapt to a car better.
@@emieloss7229 not a surprise. Max been at RB for how long compared to Perez? Red bull jus do everything for max since day 1. They don’t care about there 2nd Driver
@@anyonecanwin1462 It's simply not true. The engineers develop a car that performs well. Not something that suits Max.
Checo claimed at the start of the season he was happy with the car because of the steady rear. Max was less happy because it didn't turn in as sharp. Max also said in interviews he just adapts to the car he's driving. So even at the start of the season, when Checo was more happy with the car than Max. Max was ahead of Checo.
I like Checo, I think he's a great driver and a great person. Same goes for Alex Albon, Danny Ric, Pierre Gasly.. But Max is just on another level.
Quick question: I thought engine modes where locked since last year, but Scarbs mentions they run the engine with more or less power throughout the race?
Did the rule change or was there something that I missed there?
I think they're pointing out deployment of the kinetic energy (the electrical system). "push overtake"
@@viincanity But Max took new ICE and the were talking about that. And yes, engine mode switching is banned, so I'm also not sure what he's trying to say.
@Driver61 Can you tell me where the Picture at 0:38 is from? I was at the Grandprix and can see me and our Group in the Background. I would like a high DPI Version of that Picture. Maybe you can give me the source. Thanks!
Its so good to see Max improve everyday 🙌
he learned to manage his tyres properly !!
It's easy to manage your tires when you've got the best part of a second per lap in hand.
F1 is a team sport.
Lol, he was alwwys good on his tires. People just didn't care to see it.
Inasmuch as I have nothing but respect for Verstappen's overwhealming lead, a much deserved position he and Red Bull earned through merit, it is a disappointment that this very season, meant to bunch up the cars after the changes FIA established for drivers to race closer to each other, we are seeing another season like Schumacher 2000 thru 2004, or Vettel 2010 thru 2013, and Hamilton 2014 thru 2020 (yes, yes, Rosberg somewhere in the middle). In the end of the day, seasons like this get very boring, unless you are a fan of the winning driver.
It always happens when there is an entire new design principle coming into play - some teams were always going to nail the regulations this year better than others, but there is a decent hope that it'll be ironed out in the coming years. The cost cap helps a bit with that process I believe, because the team ahead can't extend its lead as monumentally as Merc used to since the start of the hybrid era. I guess it remains to be seen just how close things will become in the coming seasons
wasn't the tear-off incident before the race? I seem to remember hearing about it before the race had even started
Beautiful stuff Driver61 makes for us. Cheers Thanks m8! Hmm call me weird but how Max approaches entry does remind me of Carl Fogarty. heh weird.
Its not allowed to change the engine strat mode during the Race scince 2020!!!!
From Q1 to the end of the Race it is the same mode, they can only change the SOC mode
I was thinking about this when they mentioned engine strat modes.
@@danielmonsanto8286 You can't change engine modes that regulated fuel flow and such anymore, but modes related to energy usage are still fair to go. The battery also contributes to the total power of the car, so nothing they mentioned in the video is wrong, just gotta keep in mind it's about the battery.
Stupid question: If his line through La Source is so much quicker why don't more drivers use that line?
You cannot just randomly pick a different line, when on the limit it is the setup of the car that also determines what line is still feasible or safe to choose.
@@vincenzodigrande2070 that’s one of the slowest corners in F1. Your car should be able to take that line. Fact is he had an upgraded engine but more importantly he ran a smaller rear wing than Perez. Did only produce one because of budget cap?
So because of the newer engine he could use the overtake button for longer and combined with this specific racing line and the setup he was able to gain so much time through the sector? Makes sense to me :)
@@Yahniboy Well, I am not inside RB's 'kitchen', but I reckon it is all the little things that add up. The difference in the wing is perhaps what is resonating everywhere, the rear grip that Checo likes to have, whereas Max prefers a more loose back end.
I've noticed that you guys seem to use the same animations a lot, have you heard of Chrono GP, they have some great animations for the 2022 cars, and some of the smaller details of these cars.
I thought different engine strats (ie. Party Mode) was banned now and you had to use one engine mode that you qualified in and only for reliability issues could you turn it down to a lower strat? I'm genuinely confused now.
Perez just said yesterday that the cars are different plus you didn't mention the new engine. It was the same with Lewis in Brasil when he took a new engine nobody could stop him. Engines wear down a lot in a few race Max will be in the same range than Perez.
PU is worth .2/lap as per Honda. Merc gained almost .5/lap last year, like Brazil. Last year the Merc was the lowDF/drag car, RB was the high df/high drag car. Some races like Zandvoort, the Merc couldn't handle the RB, but the fast tracks Merc had dominance so Brazil (like Spa) you see a higher deficit to the pack.
The Hamilton joke😂😂😭
Max trusts his car despite the minor setbacks, he has a great engineer and team. Confidence is top tier
So how would recciardos style go with this redbull @driver61
I would like to see Fernando in this redbull
Max will kick his ass
Certainly having not just a setup but entire car designed around your drive style has some benefit.
Designed around him how exactly?
What are these “higher engine modes”? (Strat?) tks :)
How do you get the data for the graphs?
The fact that Verstappen can get this much performance out of a car that seemingly no one else at Red Bull can replicate just shows that it really isn't just the car.
Because Perez isn’t on his level.
Lewis and max imo are just so far clear
People like to hyper focus on specific instances to discredit either of them , the fact is their consistency and pace is almost inhuman and just the car alone can't win GPs .
yeah Max showed hes no longer a Rookie style driver at Spa. Hes showing patience and knowing when its good to take risks. very impressive!!!
They seems to struggle in zandvoort.. Hopefully they can sort it out
He had a brand new engine, and a car thats build to his liking/style
It's good that this kind of heroics are apreciated, because when hamilton did similar we were so used to them that we treated them like "normality"
Who has ever called Hamilton normal ? Even his haters can't help but admit how much of a machine he is .
@@Retr0_Blues the amount of times I heard haters saying ‘it’s the car’ during Hamilton’s dominating rein..
@@Retr0_Blues "It's the car" is literally the most repeated line for mindless Lewis haters
@@Senny_V well then it's clearly in bad faith then since it's painfully obvious the skill Hamilton has
Max's Schuberth R1 helmet in the thumbnail looks like something from Transformers.
Always loved the Schuberth R1 helmet ever since Schumacher used it in his latter Ferrari years...
max has learnt how to drive the red bull efficiently, making use of the top speed, better to get on the gas quicker so better to square off the corners. Ferrari’s all around approach to the new regulations doesnt work as well (currently).
I believe these new regulations benefit top speed as it means slower corner taking, which means more wheel to wheel. It benefits red bull. And ill be honest i dont really know but it wouldnt be surprising if it also specifically damaged mercedes design principles
Max was born to race in the F1. His dad did everything he could to drill him for this moment in his life. The fact that he can deliver each week is something amazing to see.
Spicy new engine, remember how hamilton became unraceable last year at brazil.
Have heard that the Brazil engine of Lewis was only used that race, while Max’ from Spa was also used in Zandvoort.
Spicy engine, illegal rear wing and suspension. Look where are they now. 30-40 seconds behind Redbull in each race. Whereas RB18 is completely legal.
4:09 this is one amazing photo. I'd love to get a print of it.
Didnt they get rid of different engine modes a year or two ago? Pretty sure its a rule that you have to do the race in the same engine setting as in qualifying, the only variable being energy deployment no? or am i missing something
