😂😂

As someone who likes Checo, yes, yes he would.

As someone who likes Taco's and Perez, Yes. But in his current form, Stroll might even be able to do so.

@@BvS.404 😂😂

the worst thing is that I honestly dont even care or watch whats happening to Checo anymore. Basically RB is a one driver team now.

Yeah maybe ppl will finally see that it was never the car. The car was good last year, but, Max’s skill is what did the job.

I am a Verstappen fan, I do. I also know that it can't go on like this. Verstappen got helped by mistakes from McLaren and Norris in the last 2 races, they will get their shit together soon and Norris will start winning races. Red Bull needs to step up if they want that constructors title. and even the drivers' title could become a struggle.

2022 and 2023 it was the car

@@TzomthekliafafanboyPerez proves that is not true sorry

@@Tzomthekliafafanboy not entirely. The RB was indeed the clear best car, but the incredible consistency of Verstappen was still remarkable. Even with the best car winning every week is not easy. There is a reason Hamilton was not that dominant in the Merc dominant years.

I was thinking Lando might've got the win if George had got on with it but he was funky and Lando lost more than 3 seconds behind him. Or you could say McLaren lost the winning margin in the pits.

this made me cackle

Very hard to believe this for me, Red Bull should have already been knowing this situation before offering the new contract to Perez. Unless Perez crashes like Mazespin or Mick Schu, no way he will lost 2025 first few races

Nah so many sponsors and sales to mexican community, he is gonna retire at Redbull.

Lol... But let's not forget Nyck Debris 😅

Haha good one 😂

and he's not "just" winning. If not for the DNF he'd have an 80% win rate this season which is highest of all time bar his own achievement last year.

well said bro

I know everyone is saying Red Bull doesn't have the fastest car anymore but they still have a pretty good car. Most data usually puts them p1 or p2. Yes what Max is doing is amazing but the car is good too. When it's not he also struggles.

@@swatitrivedi6039 the car is still good, and still the best if you count all races from Bahrain. But having a win ratio above Hamilton 2019/2020 isnt just the car.

@@swatitrivedi6039 don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying Red Bull don’t have pretty great car. They’re just not DOMINATING like they have been. It’s gonna make the rest of this season so much more interesting.

I’m so sick of these haters. They must never get laid to be so bitter.

@@underSTATEDexcellence idk not everyone is a max fan

@@finewine1001 you don’t have to be a fan of a driver to respect them. Again that comes down to your personal life experiences. I guess I do forget which YT channel I’m on too.

Max has been basically banished from DOTD since 2022

Im a lewis fan and i dnt like max winning but if anyone deserves the dotd tday it was max . wut did lando do , he couldnt keep his pole lead for one lap and he also had a marginally better car though it was all lost frm tht first 2 laps

As a robotics engineer, so can I 😆

Stat 10, one zero Ok, 2 confirmed.

GP: “Okay Max. Strat 10. Strat 10.” Max: “2 or 10? I can’t hear you!” GP: “Ah I see. It’s 1010 Max. 1010.” Max: “Thank you!”

Binary or decimal?

If they add a leading zero, then you know you're in trouble. Friends don't let friends use octal

🤣🤣

For real. Bro was like "WE'RE NOT ON PLAN E? WHAT!?" 🤣

Verstappen - /effect give Max Verstappen Luck 5 3races

why u can say it so easy that he is in the 2nd best car? and norris the best?

Im sorry but the McLaren was not faster than the Red Bull in race trim today 😭 They literally offset the strategy bcs in a straight battle they were not quicker.

Because Norris said he thinks he had the fastest car today.​@@lukasholthus421

Facts, Norris got Pole and Fastest Lap, and didn't get into DRS at the end thanks to him bottling the start. Bar one slow pitstop, everything else was his fault.

The same day the kids or new drive to survive fans realize that this award is for admirable racecraft shown that race. Nobody cares about popularity or social media shit.

He used to win it all the time. He just isn't voted for any more because he's won so much

@@Septimus_ii Mostly because he is the undisputed dotd back in 2023. And you really can't make an argument against him when he put it on pole, lead every single lap and got the fastest lap as well. Whereas now, he is still the best driver, however, it requires you truly understand the race to see how great he is. This is not gatekeeping, but whoever think lando is a deserving DOTD this time around is delusional and has zero knowledge about F1.

LOL

Their shouting and booing during the national anthems was a disgrace. It happened in Miami and Montreal aswell. Time for the commentators at Sky to call this out!

Nah, I'm a fan but he bottled the win at the start. And yeah, he didn't deserve DotD. But why do we care who gets FAKE awards? DotD is a fake award. Even the drivers couldn't care any less.

Why though? It’s a popularity vote. Those drivers are not popular besides theyve dominated

The reality is that yeah, overall max drove best today. However aside from the start Lando drove quite well. But more than that, Lando, because of his strategy was basically coming from behind most of the race. We saw him battle other drivers like the Mercedes, (great battle with George) and also put in laps catching max. He was where the excitement and tension came from this race and I think as a result that’s why people were entertained and why they voted for him.

its not even really lando bias people just always vote for whoever was fastest that isnt verstappen

At first I mumbled "like taking candy from a baby" but then I ran it back in my head and knowing this was Russel, I said to myself no, this was just pure brilliance.

And Piastri dragging his Mclaren which is best car compare to RB20 from P9 to P7 i wonder what we call it lol some people now hating on perez is do bad in that Red bull meanwhile Piastri is miles behind Norris in the same car and he just 6 point ahead of Russell and with Mercedes current pace i dont be surprised he finish this season behind Russell or even Lewis aswell in the final standing in WDC and Norris fight for wins at the front 🤔🤫lol

Awesome

That was some of THE best racing of the season

Because George was involved in a good clean battle. There's a certain narrative out there which this doesn't fit.

You do realize how that works?

I think DOTD rarely goes to the race winner but I could be wrong

@@msvanveen Not really. Even if Lando won, he would be DOTD. It's just the mindset of voters hasn't changed. They think it's still 2023. So max winning is considered to be expected. Doesn't matter if Red Bull falls off a cliff.

@@msvanveen It does. If it's not Verstappen.

@@msvanveen didn’t say it should have gone to Max…

IKR.. as a non-brit i was enjoying the way george raced a lot today, yet no brit gave him any love with the votes. feels bad man

Well it is a joke anyway, today I tested what would happen if I installed five browsers on my phone an bring out a vote in each, and hey, I could vote five times....

Max won it every week until he was in the fastest car. It just goes to whoever has the most screen time and can portray themselves as an underdog

If Max was pushing the whole race like Lando then he would deserve but coasting around 0.8s slower than he could've gone isn't DOTD performance.

​@@paperplane-db8qf It literally is. You have to be able to coast so hard in the first place. Which means you were able to drive that gap in the first place. Which also means he was consistensly faster than norris over the entire race, not just in the last 15 laps while having considerably fresher rubber. Its not a DotD performance to start on P1, bottle the start immediately to land on p3, not getting past P2 for WAY to long and then refusing the undercut SEVERAL TIMES despite being notified about this losing him position (again several times).

Ric was expected to be the leading driver, not play 2nd violin.

That’s the difference with RBR. They know what they’re doing. Max trusts them. And RBR trusts Max because they know he can execute a difficult strategy. McLaren is indecisive. They give Norris way too much input. They need to let Norris focus on driving and give him the strategy and tools to win.

Norris has a tendency to fuck up pitstop strategies. He should have won Russia 21 and this year in Canada and Barcelona.

As soon as I heard him say he was racing Max, at that point I was just shaking my head, it was so obvious this wasn't going to be realistic any longer.

You can tell McLaren is not used to fight for wins, their strategy is nowhere near as fine tuned as Red Bull's in a game of fine margins.

@@soundscape26i agree with everything,Mclaren wasn’t fighting for wins in a like 12 years despite 21.Ric win and Lando’s win in Miami but they are gone get back with strategy a will win more races.

He did. Because he reverted back to his old chassis.

Sick of it

I guess his racing with Russell won him dotd. Max didn't really have that.

​@@pianissimo7121Because he was just faster and quickly overtook him

@@strexle7446 i know that, I saw the highlights. But face it, Lando overtake was much more enjoyable then Maxs overtake. And dotd is just a fan vote. I kinda expected Lando to get it. Am suprised everyone else is suprised.

I don't think lando should have won Monaco or Canada. Imola and this he should have but I'd say he didn't have the pace for Monaco or Canada

I agree, but I think the recovery drive was admirable

I'm honestly baffled with all this talk of the "second fastest car"... They're pretty equal, in fact the race simulation showed red bull slightly ahead of mclaren and they were almost evenly matched during qualifying... Perez can't handle the RB20, but neither could Piastri this weekend, that doesn't make the RB20 a slower car than the MCL38... In fact, unlike the RB20, the MCL38 didn't have any upgrades this weekend. Yes, Max is making the difference in the RB20, but so is Lando in the MCL38... We saw today in 4 different races that the grid spot for P1 in Barcelona is badly chosen, happened in F3, F2 and F1A as well, just because the left side is the racing line during the race, it doesn't mean its the optimal side for the race start, which is shown by the fact that it wasn't hamilton behind Lando that could make the most of the slipstream on that long rununtil Turn 1, but Russel from P4, behind Max... 600 meters into a pretty fast right hander, by starting on the left side, you already have a longer way to get to Turn 2 than P2 on the grid... Lando didn't get DOTD for losing position by Turn 1, he got it by driving an amazing race after that, getting back to P2 even with that weird gamble on trying the uppercut on a track that is known for having a strong undercut potential. Max did one overtake besides getting past lapped cars, Lando did a ton, driving in dirty air and STILL getting back to 2 seconds behind Max, who had clean air for most of the race, except for some backmarkers towards the end. That overtake by Lando on Russel alone should be enough for DOTD

​@@bl4xxunthough i agree about rb 20 marginally faster overall or equal but lando didnt deserve dotd tday hes gettin dotd almost every weekend and even if lando did good for the p2 doesnt mean verstappen didnt hold on to the win

@@bl4xxun I guess you know the car better then Lando Norris the one driving the car and said it was the faster car today..

Max won because Lando doesn't know how pitstop strategy works. Lando put himself 9 seconds behind Max from trying to go long on the first stint, it isn't like Max did anything to cause that.

Everybody like a pretty boy

All of sudden, the fastest car isn't the one max is driving and its a issue? Absolute chump

​@@oneway_stinglol

​@@oneway_sting The point is... Lando has the fastest car now and he still isn't winning 🤷🏻‍♀️

It's not about who the best driver is, it's about who gave the most entertainment, because you know F1 is there to entertain. Landos drive today was the most exciting and thereby the most entertaining. I don't get why people think its about who had the best drive. If it was just a popularity contest wouldn't the Orange Army put Max in the top 3 every week given their size and fanaticism?

Yeah, no fair. He got all those bonus points! This is a super serious issue. The FIA shall look into immediately.

Yea but Max’s race wasn’t as entertaining, after lap 4 Max never fought anyone he was ahead the whole race Lando fought for it making the race good and entertaining to watch

Literally nowhere I say it should be Max, but how about Lewis or Gasly?

@@bomburthedwarf9036where does it say it’s about the most entertaining driver?

Checo's peak was so much lower and so much shorter than last year that it's not really comparable

Perez was only looking good when Red Bull had a dominant car. As soon as Red Bull fall back closer to others, Perez is showing he is pretty bad, worse than Bottas at Mercedes I argue. At this point Perez has the Red Bull seat just because of his marketability in Latin America, as well as keeping Max happy, having an easy teammate.

@@samuelsiltala119 There’s a reason it was HAM VER BOT and never gonna be VER NOR/LEC PER.

@@samuelsiltala119 What are yo talking about? Perez was extremely good in 2021 where the Red Bull was only the best car for 50% of the season while Merc had the other 50%. Once the car actually got dominate he has fallen off a cliff. Al least get it right. Cuz Perez problem isnt what you say it is.

​@@samuelsiltala119lol

Exactly. And then his fans call it a "recovery drive". He recovered from P3 to P2 effectively. How is that a recovery drive? Because he went for a bad strategy and then had fresh tyres to get some places back? So stupid.

They signed Perez because he backs Horner and doesn’t cause any internal chaos. Carlos isn’t a team player. But he’s quick. So that might cause some friction. And Carlos Sr. and Marko have a bad history from 2015 because he spread false rumors to the Spanish media about Max going to Ferrari to increase his son’s chances to get the RBR seat. While Sainz had nothing to do with that, he’ll likely never race for them ever again. They hold grudges.

​@@theglitch312 Also, after being held up at Toro Rosso, Sainz gave Marko the bird and went off to Renault in 2017 as soon as the opportunity was offered. He didn't even finished the season.

Easy. Perez will play the team game to help Max win the title whenever Red Bull requests it. He's proven he'll sacrifice his race time and again to get Max the win when he's asked. The team values that most of all. Carlos doesn't exactly play the team game.

@@IkLms11 No, the team values Checo's sponsorships most of all.

tin foil hat time... they signed Perez to keep Ricciardo out of the team as it may be in his contract.

Like bono my tyres is gone and then pulling away someone not long ago 🤔🤫😏😂😂😂

@@user-wy5xe6ht2m Exactly!

Exactly. I mean, when you talk about "the last Ferrari title", most of the people think about Kimi's 2007 WDC. Very few people think about the 2008 WCC.

Lol

Because Mclaren and Mercedes is improverd since Bahrain now both is either on pace or better car than Ferrari especially Mclaren and of course Ferrari is Ferrari

Also, if/when Ocon joins Haas, I'm gonna need you to retire that cursed shirt, honestly I might advise ritually burning it to get rid of the bad juju.

I would give George it based on pure entertainment value as without him this could have been a snooze.

Why are you going to exit F1 at the time when we've had the closest racing in the past decade?

How was Hamilton better? Got outpaced by Russell until Russell got shafted with a 5 second stop and awful hard tyres

He finished 17 seconds ahead of HAM in a slightly faster car. Max and Lando were leagues ahead of everyone else. HAM started 3rd, finished 3rd so I don’t see how HAM would deserve it. Only Max

@@Duval-In-The-Wall I wonder if there was something wrong with the wheel locking system as it happened on the same tyre. I remember during the Stake issues they kept mentioning that it is built into the cars axels so any error or damage would cause issues regardless of the different wheels.

Lol

Perez's biggest issue is the pressure. As soon as everyone started saying he would challenge for the title, mistakes creeped in which completely shattered his confidence

George is in a slower car. So it makes sense that he gaps George. Max’s entire gap was the result of him getting P1 and driving in clean air. Norris had to cook his tires behind other cars and try an alternate (less optimal) strategy. We saw that when both were in clean air, Norris was faster. If he kept the lead, he’d have won easily.

Max literally runs away with the race every time he’s in the lead and we’re meant to believe the Red Bull isn’t the fastest 😂 Perez must pay for his crimes

Sure and Lando himself said McLean was the fastest car in spain but of course some delulu people on internet know better lol

Instant Builder of the Day award.

If you read the comments on almost every Mercedes post, you would think Merc is on the verge of taking Hamilton out behind the shed. Lewis will get like p7, p3, and then p4 in practice then quali 5th and everyone will yell at Merc that they "touched the car" and that the "sabotage is so obvious". They also forgot that George is just a great quali driver whose nickname used to be Mr Saturday. They just can't handle Hamilton not winning and decide to take it out on a social media admin thinking that it'll get to Toto and mystically the team will improve overnight.

Of course Red bull dont want to win WCC lol

Russell 5.3s pit stop 🤔😏

@@user-wy5xe6ht2m a slow pit stop doesn’t mean it was intentional 🙄

If it depends on Norris, it will stay at 0%

Charles had lost how many poles? Lando has no where near as many

majorit of charles' poles are when the car is not the fastest in race trim

@@ravinderdasila9334 Exactly. Norris had the fastest car for both his poles and still wasn’t able to convert them

@@Milkywayboy and whose fault is that for only having 2 poles?

I mean, the team did tell George that they were going Plan B (which was the switch to the hard tyre) just after Lando overtook Lewis, so quite a bit before their battle. They told him he was doing great managing and even a bit too much on the medium, so I'm wondering if knowing he would switch to the hards kind of influenced his decision to battle with Lando, like 'oh I'm changing tyres soon anyway, might as well have a good fight before that'

Fastest car yet Piastri (who’s been excellent this season) barely got the Alpines and was nowhere near Sainz

Lol

​@@Duval-In-The-Walllike Perez 😂😂😂🤔😏

@@user-wy5xe6ht2m It’s well established that Piastri is better than Perez tbf

Of course Red bull dont care about WCC Lol

Saw that 🤔

There are 10 types of people in the world...

Very few people lol more like is Max the only can handle that best of a car

Shocker! Right?

Oh no. Brown will double - down

Norris got the 2nd fastest car on pole - Max just cruised to an easy win after underperforming in quali like usual.

​@@paperplane-db8qfBro are you slow or something? McLaren and Lando admitted that they were the quickest car this weekend. What data do you have that proves McLaren and their drivers wrong?

@@charleswilfred6463 some people are having a hard time accepting that max can win without the fastest car.
