Why young people think than everything that happens now is legendary ? Usually we see what is legendary after 10-20 years. This is why all of the modern drivers are lame. Last legendary driver was Schumacher.
I can never watch Abu Dhabi 2021 the same again. I used to watch and find it wholesome how Checo did a killer job of holding up Lewis and just seeing how the whole team was doing everything possible to dethrone Lewis and Mercedes. Now when I watch it, I'll be thinking about how Max wasn't willing to do 1/10 of what Checo did for him in Brazil 2022...
And you only just say shit on the internet you didnt do research on. Matter of fact you didnt even need to do fucking research to understand that max did it because checo crashed on purpose in Monaco. Max is a smart guy and just doesnt let it seem to bother him until the moment he can get payback for what checo did.
Not just Abu Dhabi. I’m a big Checo fan and one of the biggest moments that season was Russia. Max P9 Lewis P2 Checo P3 they pit max before Checo to give him the best jump up the standings and Checo the next. Then we see Lewis P1 Max P2 race finish that’s huge points. And then again this season at the start Spain Checo told he couldn’t attack max when max was slower and to stay behind for 5 laps so max could pass only for then straight after that Checo to dispose the same driver in a lap. The amount of team orders in 2021 where Checo was told to sacrifice his race to stay out and hold lewis up or to pit for fastest lap to take it off lewis is insane and showed how great of a support he is to max,. This and last season. It’s a Shame max couldn’t return the favour now max had wrapped up his championship
Hard to believe that all this while, every wholesome moment between these two that we see on camera, Max was holding a grudge deep inside him. Unbelievable. His true color exposed.
@@ErnestoHerreraLegorreta only psychopaths? You talm bout super competitive people that risk there lives several times week just to go fast around a track? Imagine that? Nevermind you obviously can’t.
@@longsleevethong1457 the thing is that it was WITH HIS TEAMMATE Max has a lot of wins, Checo had some too but the difference in wins is abismal, so, what happened that got him so pissed off?!
@@longsleevethong1457 yea, super competitive that make him unable to think rationaly? sounds like psychopaths to me think about it, what Perez and team ask for? a win? a podium? no, a p6, a mere 2 point which doesnt even matter for max at all, if these was driver for other team and not your own team mate, yeah sure, understandable. but this is his own team mate who fought tooth and nail to the end just to open a way for him to become WDC last year and maybe this year too, thats "petty" on another whole level, even feel disgusting tbh
I notice a lot of people turning away from Max now, and a lot of them seem to be rooting for Perez. Maybe not next race, maybe not the race after, but to quote Rush "every now and then, it helps if people like you"
@@anameyoucantremember I don’t think that’ll continue to be the case. DTS gave Checo a really nice redemption arc to go along with his Sakhir win. That being said, there will always be certain people who’ll hate him for being Mexican, I just don’t think anyone continues to perceive him as a villain.
ive never been a max fan. I always saw how toxic he was and just saw the comments be like "hes amazing hes the funniest" when he was a complete lunetic in that video and disrespectful to everyone.
Perez hasn't been a loyal teammate, just over 0.5 s a lap slower. He always was spared over that, but as soon he could match Verstappen for two races he started claiming to have a go at the WDC himself, fuelled by the British press in denial about drivers being significantly faster than the rest. People forget very fast, because he was put back in his place by Verstappen being is usual much faster on the track soon enough, but modest and loyal, no.
It was absolute zero sportsmanship to defend like that last year and this year he got his karma from the person he was fighting for . Hurts but what comes around goes around
@@jdr4307 what do you mean man he was helping out his team mate keep crying about it nothings going to change toto said hell overspend next session and pay the fine or consequence
"I gave my reasons and stand by it" As a max fan, I am BEYOND flabberghasted that he has the audacity to not let his teammate through to gain points in the current battle for second in the DC. Bro literally has already won DC 😭💀
What brings second place in the WC? There for i realy like it that he does what he alredy said. This problem wil never ever come back again. He says im not goinging to let him pass, and he does as he says. I respect that in a person
@@findamozo9046 you’ve never been a competitor and it shows. Second obviously won’t bring any tangible reward, but they’re in a multi national, damn near year long competition at the pinnacle of motor sports. Second in the championship would mean everything for the drivers and teams, especially for checo who’s had moderate success at any other team before. What Max did was wrong, Checo is one of the main reasons Max even won last year, so to even stand by Max is borderline tasteless, coming from a Redbull and Max fan myself.
Max needed the 2 extra points. Nobody has ever had this many points before and he wants to make sure nobody will ever be able to ever again. He has his reasons. It only cost him 500 000 fans but it's worth it.
I have been a Max fan for 5 years now and what I saw yesterday, I cannot even describe in words the level of disappointment I felt. I am heartbroken for Checo and I definitely lost a lot of respect for Max.
@@victory2115 same, started the season celebrating his wins by playing super max, ended up agreeing that Masi stole the championship from Hamilton wishing that he won the whole thing. And god knows I'm not a hamilton given he was the main rival for the german drivers (rosberg/vettel) I was rooting for.
Max has always been a spoilt little b**ch! Gifted a 2021 championship and cheated in 2022! The guy is a selfish little pr*ck, I'm looking forward to Mercedes resurgence. I'm glad he showed his true colours, now we can all see who he really is!
Yes i think he should had slowed down so checo 4.6 seconds behind could overtake and then drive as fast as possible away from ocon that was 2 seconds behind checo
Not really a good example I'd rather say unleash your Nico Rosberg as he actually became champ even though Ham was clearly the number 1 driver for Merc. Bottas however good of a driver he is didn't win it yet and probably never will.
@@lemoninzest17 I don't think it's an insult, if checo goes rogue I think he had a shot at it unless Red Bull really doesn't give a shit about him. The insult would be to think checo isn't capable.
To openly disrespect the guy who gave you the chance you needed to "win" your first world title is appalling. You think Albon or Gasly could've held up Lewis for 10+ seconds? Disgusting behaviour by Max, shows who he truly is.
@@radityaindera3442 in what world are you living in? Both Gasly and Albon failed abysmally in the redbull car. No other driver on the grid could’ve held up Lewis as well as Checo did in AD 21
perez didnt give him the chance lmfao. it should never have been equal. where was perez in silverstone? where was he for the whole season bar turkey and abu dhabi? acting like max won cause of perez in particular is so stupid.
@@racistlobsterofficial Where was he in Silverstone? He was in 10th until the team pitted him very late. He came out in 12th on fresh tyres to take fastest lap away from Hamilton. Fastest lap means nothing to somebody outside the top 10. He knew full well he was sacrificing a point to help his team-mate & he never complained.
At the end of the race, Hamilton was asked to comment on his collision with Verstappen. He did not say much, but what he said was: You know how it is with Max.
RB fans should really appreciate Checo, Abu Dhabi 2021 was an incredible fight to handing his immature teammate his first WDC while Bottas was nowhere near helping Lewis.
@@Edittname As a Lewis fan, I was both frustrated and impressed by Checo's defence, and he has done it multiple times with Lewis. That guy is the best teammate an elite driver can ask for. Heck, I'm sure Lewis / Leclerc would've killed for a teammate like Checo.
Remco this is amazing to hear! It's great that you finally realize this of max. It's one thing to have even been a fan of that man child but it's an even better realization that this is is truly who he is.
I am a max fanboy due to many reasons. But man, I absolutely rage over this incident. That one guy (Checo) deserves at LEAST that much respect to be given that spot to fight.
@@paulahner900 One could ask the same question to you. How can you be a fan of X-driver? Everyone has their reasons. Many reasons for one to fan-over certain drivers, most of which are personal preferences and some of a technical nature. Quite a dumb question but hey!
I can understand why Ferrari wouldn't swap their drivers for P3, they might have not wanted to get boo'd on the podium. But did Max really need that P6? Really?
All I ever hear about from any F1 fan I meet is how good they think Perez is at defending and helping the team. He is an absolute legend and no amount of WDC titles will stop people from choosing checo over Max any day of the week.
Checo cheated on his wife after monaco. Whoever made the call with las vegas bet rigging on red bull to not have soft tires on checo is the reason why he fell back to 7th. Checo was 1/5 cars on medium tires and the other 4 were out of the points.
100% agree. Worst part is, Max was not even going to sacrifice anything. He's already champion, he was not losing anything, all he was going to lose was his pride... for a P6.... it's just disgusting from Max. Shows who he really is.
Senna once gave up a win for his teammate Gerhard Berger. Schumacher once he won the championship in 2001 i think gave up a win to Barrichello to thank him for giving up a win to Michael in Austria. Hamilton in Hungary 2017 asked his team to tell Bottas to let him by and try to catch the Ferrari's and if he couldn't he would give the place back. Hamilton was at the middle of a title fight and he was behind Vettel in points. Hamilton was unable to pass and he gave Bottas his position back. I guess what I want to say is that all these greats gave back to their wingmen.
I know quite a few Mexicans and if there is one common trait, most are very loyal people. He did a great job being a teammate and deserves so much more credit.
@@mukwoorusilverhair4283 lol what? Did they take your f’n kidneys or something? Please do share the gory details, this place IS for sharing our experiences and opinions! Duh!
@@M15Taka "i have a personal experience that is different than yours. so let me project my personal experience, don't project yours!!!" i'm sorry but that was HILARIOUS 😆
Re-watching Abu Dhabi has always been really hard for me as I saw my favourite sport lose so much of its integrity for the sake of crowning a new champion, but now after watching what happened to Checo on Sunday and then going back to watch his defence against LH like an absolute beast is hauntingly poetic - the way you edited this video gave me chills. Max can enjoy his paper crown, because he is nothing without Perez - his defence in AD 21 will be bigger than any of Max's hollow titles, mark my words. Checo has managed to become the single most important figure behind a championship in modern f1. We have witnessed history.
"He is nothing without Pérez..." I dont agree with what Max did in Brazil, but come on!... lets get the facts right, Max is a hell of a driver even if most people hate him now... on the other hand Pérez will never win the WDC.
Glad to see the world finally getting their eyes opened up about who and what Max has always been. Max has been treating the rest of the grid with this type of disrespect his entire career, that people are actually shocked by his behaviour is the real tragegy, but at least they opening their eyes, better late than never.
I always thought that max was a brat but an amazing driver, this cemented that statement but I’m a fan of Lewis because he let bottas through after he couldnt pass Sebastian during the 2017 Hungarian Grand Prix, and there was even a championship on the line but still respected bottas for his contributions
And he apparently got schooled by Nikki Lauda for doing that and not prioritizing the championship. People love to shit talk how Bottas was treated by Lewis, but the fact is, they remain close friends to this day. That wouldn't be the case if Bottas wasn't treated well.
As much as ppl would love to believe it, Hamilton was never #1 by contract, neither vs Rosberg nor Bottas. Only when his teammates had no chance for the championship anymore did they have to help. Perez on the otherhand gets sacced in race 3(Portimao 2021) or 4 (Barcelona 2022) because little Max must become the overlord of F1. Thats RB for you. Same as with Schumacher, Alonso or Vettel at Ferrari, they have to be #1 before the season even starts to perform well knowing that there is no rival with the same car. Im sure Toto likes to see Hamilton win over Russell or Bottas or even Rosberg, but they dont actively sac or destroy their races for that unless they are hopelessly behind Lewis in the championship (like Russia 2018 for example)
@@Devilfish6666 lewis could have probably won the brazilian gp while he was still on mediums due to his longer stint on the softs Merc made him pit to give the maiden win to russel and secured the 1&2
Just like Kanye West... they show themselves over time. Still, we defend them...until they do something so indefensible that you are forced to accept what everybody else was saying about them the whole time...but deep down inside, you always knew they were terrible people.
There are certain moments where silence falls on a racing track... and if you listen closely you hear a big mexican heart breaking into pieces along with others worldwide
I strongly believe this is the moment Max will regret most in his life. Its just a guess but I believe this advice is coming from his rather arrogant father. There is a reason Lewis didn't want his dad around as his manager. Sometimes family can make a simple decision seem so emotionally driven.
I dont think Lewis father is like Jos. btw, max fan, and if Max's reasons are the fact that he knows that Perez crashed on purpose in Monaco, i'll support him.
@@ramos_4892 Perez was 3rd after both Ferrari's in Monaco when he crashed ... he was not even first ! You could crash on purpose if you are first on Monaco which will give you an advantage for the race. Max is my favorite driver since 2015 .. but what he just done in Brazil made no sense to me ..
@@Amigow0w thats the thing, i agree, it seems checo had no reason to do it. But if you take a look at the onboard and/or the thottle data from that lap, in comparison to other laps, it looks mad sketchy
Without Perez Max wouldn't have won the championship. Had he not defended the way he did, Lewis would have been 17 sec+ ahead of Max and then the pitstop under the SC would have been a no brainer for Merc. Shame on Max ! Frickin Awesome and Cold Edit tho 🥶
Okay.. I admit..I was the no 1 fan of the Max. But after Brazil Gp, i hope he gets what he deserve. He absolutly ignores everthing Checo does for him, just to give him a champion win.. #Checoislegend ♥
The thing is if he actually theoretically might need the points let's say 5 races ago I would say "ok maybe" but not giving Checo that point even though he already won the title is just making him a pathetic prick.. As Checo said very well it shows what kinda person he is. Always stretching the rules, always trying to push others to gain an advantage, taking everything for himself but unable to give anything back. The worst kind of human there is.
He is not stupid Donty.. What you see in the TV and what happening behind is 2 different thing. The reason what Max did was a payback for a moment what you didn't understand yet. Monaco Q3 crash was not a misstake by Perez. If you think it's just a conspiracy theory, then please check Perez's telemetry data what shows the truth, and if you still don't believe, just check hes (no)reaction with his steering wheel. Max told that he won't let Perez pass for a reason
@@nicolazucca well then max is one he'll of a vengeful guy and it does not reflect well on him. If you are still clinging on to something that happened months ago, even when checo had done everything he can for msx to win the title then that shows max is an arrogant and selfish person. No doubt max is a great driver. But he is not a great person. Max showed his real personality in brazil.
This year I was thinking that I would rather someone besides Max to win next year cause he was dominating this season and I'd like to see tighter WDC fights, but now I don't want Max to win championship this year cause of how he treated Checo. If Red Bull dominates next year too, I wish Checo becomes the main driver and stop being on Max's shadow. -Meanwhile I also hope Ferrari finally awakens, with Charles and Carlos winning more races-
After every race he helped him, every help he gave, Every support checo went through with Verstappen even helping him win the world championship last year, this is what Verstappen dose not letting Perez through? Max really showed his true colors, he was right, this shows who he really is
Seb was most hated person in rb and also it was his prime time by winning 4 wdc but things change when he got no wdc in pocket after that but shown his generous side.
@@sovanpati Difference is webber fought for the title checo hasnt even been close. Checo has done a lot for max i agree but perez should now just focus on himself and not help max anymore they both should put the team first from now on i hope max and checo learn from this
@@yatindrasinghyadav2319 no one dislikes ver cause he's "successful", cause he really isn't. He's always been a clown, a sore loser and thoroughly useless when it comes to wheel-to-wheel racing. A disgrace for the sports, that a guy like him is being rewarded for his narcissism.
@@jamesc1199 also has massive amounts of respect for his career btw, max did some amazing stuff already early in his career. that will never change, so keep hating if u like.
@@Dayfitnl *his career. You're proving my point with your own words. Max thanks people when they do things for him, but doesn't return the favour, which makes him seem like an ungrateful winner. A winner, he may be, but a grateful one is questionable.
You've matured as a person! That's great, honestly. There are surprisingly and also unsurprisingly, still some people out there who are still fans of max and even dare to defend him still after that stunt he pulled.
Yeah because team orders were never ignored before 🙄😶 Earlier this season Sainz got the win when he got asked to hold up Lewis for Leclerc after the late SC in Silverstone. But instead of following orders he got full attack mode and took the win where Leclerc only got P4. In the one hand I think that it was greedy from Max but if someone is to blame it is the team, they did not communicate clear. Have all the facts before you judge. They never should’ve asked max to full push and attack ALO & LEC but keep positions for the last 5 laps. Or they had to say that he had 4 laps to try otherwise swop the cars back (but they only told Checo), you can confirm that yourself by checking both onboard radios during lap 67-71. Asking it halfway lap 71 while in DRS of ALO (which they asked to attack) wasn’t a smart move knowing that they discussed it before. They could smell from 1000 miles this would going to happen. That’s what makes me sad because the team was in full harmony almost the whole season and now they acted very stressful. Beside that it didn’t make any difference because it was just two points. Perez still has to finish in front of LEC to get P2.
@@YouriKlijn dude, no matter how hard you try to pull a justification out of your bum that blames it on the team, it won’t work. The mechanic told Max 3 times to let him pass. It was clear as fuck that the reason he was let by was because he had better chances at catching Alonso. But when he didn’t, he was told to give the position back for the championship. And you can’t say it was due to late communication when max says he did it on purpose and would do it again. Like, wtf. Even if the communication *would* have been bad. Then he would have said that and not that it was fully on purpose that he did not let him by. I am beyond shocked that there are actually people fanboying so hard for max that they will construct anything to fit the picture of his flawless idol. Holy. Also: 2 points CAN make a difference. Because the last points spots only have one point difference. *and* if both don’t finish the race, Leclerc wins because he has more overall wins then checo. There are not many scenarios in which it matters a lot, but there ARE scenarios. And Max, in his clear mind and with access to his full judgement decided to make it harder for his teammate on purpose. Even though the whole fucking team and his teammate basically breath to serve him. That right there is a god complex in the making. Mark my words.
Anyone bringing up the supposed Monaco incident - Checo has still helped Max out and been a team player many more times, even if you net of that one event. To continue to hold a grudge like that, irrespective of the whole past relationship, does really say everything.
Really beautiful piece of editing and I'd like to see more like it. I like Max but how can you do this to such a helping teammate with nothing at stake for himself? There might be a personal reason behind this decision, but that cannot outweigh all Checo has done for him.
Well said, that sums up all. Max arrogant actions sitting on top of the world will be his demise when coming down, BECAUSE NO ONE STAYS ON TOP FOREVER. AND SO MIGHT NEVER WIN ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP. CERTAINLY WILL NEVER HAVE ANOTHER LOYAL TEAMMATE LIKE CHECO STARTING WITH CHECO IN 2023.
Max was really the first driver I ever "loved", was always excited to see him race, loved how the Red Bull looked in his hands. I'm so disappointed. Big respect to Checo, amazing driver and amazing teammate. Without him so much would be different. Why Max would do this to him I do not know, and the fact he doesn't speak of his "reason" to me feels like he already knows it's not a good enough one to have done this, especially when it made no difference to him at all. He won nothing doing this, but I suspect he has now lost much, including the respect of his supporters. (Somehow, I don't really think he cares all that much about that though haha)
Checo puts up masterclass wingman performance in RBR, while Max just doesn't live up to a name for a WDC winner. I still love the healthy fellowship between Guanyu and Valtteri in Alfa Romeo, no problem with that.
Hamilton is still pretentious and a hypocrite. I also despite everything he stands for. Hamilton's true colors will manifest themselves again too once Russel starts threatening his title chances. Lewis even said it himself... It's all fine as long as we're fighting only for P3-P5 in the championship.
@@stevedownie1378 Don’t think Hamilton didn’t want that win yesterday. The risk of losing a 1-2 for Merc was too great. Russell wasn’t going to let him through without a fight. Hamilton’s a big a-hole too just ask Nico.
Top dogs are always a holes with just 1% or less of them being actually good but they won't get noticed often cause good deeds are not what humans prefer to talk about
Without Checo's Abu Dhabi defence, Max wouldn't of gotten even close to the race win and therefore to the WDC. The problem with Max is that everything was thrown at him at his desire and whenever he wanted.
i was so mad when this happened... like WTF that's the guy that got you that last win for the Driver champion last year and you won't let him pass for his battle for 2nd....
I remember watching Rubens Barrichello leading in a Ferrari ahead of Schumacher, and everyone, including the commentators, saying that given that there was only a few laps left in the race, Rubens had it in the bag. Barrichello must have thought the same thing but then was told to let Schumacher pass him. It meant nothing for Schumacher. He had already won four of the last five races. Barrichello was way ahead and in fact, had started from pole position. It broke my heart to see what looked like a well earned win for Barrichello, taken from him when so little was at stake. I lost all respect not only for Schumacher, but Ferrari as well. It was just so petty.
Either Max has to publicly address his reasonings for why he did what he did and apologize to Checo and fans or he will or he will go on to be disliked by many and lose his fans.
He won't explain a thing. It'll be like that time he said he'd headbutt anybody that kept asking him questions about his crashes in 2018. Just wait in Abu Dhabi, he'll just shut down those questions. If you hate him, that's gonna be on you.
@@adl6907 bro...im a redbull fan, and my favorite driver is Vettel. But what if i like max u got a problem with that? U probably suport hamilton but i dont have a problem with that so stop being a manchild
When I was in leadership school in the Marines, an instructor told us ….”There will be a moment in your life that others will define you for the remainder of your years” This will be Max’s moment. I lost total respect for him. Everyone in the living room froze when that radio call came over the TV. Unbelievable was the comments.. it was actually sad.
Helping to get your teammate 2 WDCs > Crashing on Purpose in Monaco. The way max betrayed checo is so unbelievable dirty. I hope he will think twice about helping him next year.
As a max fan, Max has definetly crossed a line here. His ego has spiraled to his head. Max had damage and wasnt able to pass fernando, yet he didn't let perez trough.
I would consider myself a super fanboy of max and red bull, but what he did yesterday really upset me. I hope he learns from it and how it’s affected his teammate, if not then all the best for checo
If you are a Red Bull fan, cheer for Checo. Max has been a jerk for a long, long time. His bravado and immaturity have at times cancelled out his talent. And that's saying a lot because his talent is undeniable, but so is his childishness. Checo is most definitely the better person. He is loyal, well liked by teams and drivers. It was the same with Schumi and Rubens. Schumi was the better driver, but in my heart I always, always cheered for Rubens.
@@f1shorts587 No reason should justify what he did in Brazil. Checo literally ruins his race every time Max needs his help, what could you possibly ask for more?
You’re right but he has proven his speed of defense to hold off drivers for wins (singapore…) i just think whether he’s fast enough or not doesn’t change the fact that they like each other less
RB will be stuck in a tough position on who to side with. They can't just get rid of Checo. Checo is a big part of the reason they won the Constructors this year. No teams wants to just win the Drivers title. Its all out civil war within RB now though😬
Checo is not even remotely as quick as prime Daniel, he is a great guy but he will never be able to fight Max as Ricciardo did (considering also that Max was still a beginner back then)
Not only was Checos defending on point in Abu Dhabi but in quali checo gave max a slip stream down the straight allowing Max to get pole. Max really did checo dirty
This can't be anger from Monaco, they were so friendly with eachother and no one expected an issue. Before the Mexaco GP Max was asked if he will let Perez win, and Max basically said he can do it and doesn't need help.
Actually his pre-Mexico interview he was asked if he could let Checo win and it was a firm NO. Go watch that interview. Somethingis going on underneath there
