What is the point of track limits if you can just drive all over the track?!
F1 is a joke.

F1 is a joke. | One of the few reasons why I don't follow F1. I know it's an unpopular reason I but view this as "bad racing." Granted, my bias comes from driver education where you just don't do that, and if you do, it's because you made a mistake or got overly confident. The risk is higher where if you crash your car, that's on you. For these F1 drivers (or most drivers, anyway) they crash a car, their sponsor just buys them a new one. In other race series like WEC or IMSA, driving all over the place has penalties that can cost you an entire race, or make the difference between winning and losing. How this is allowed in F1 is laughable.

I find it ridiculous you can run off the track and return back to your original position without penalty even if was your own error.
You make an error and lose 10 spots because it was your mistake? That's racing! Deal with it.

Not sure if y'all familiar with Chicken Shop Date but the host of that has been doing a series of interviews with F1 drivers and its pretty amusing: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...OLdjnO5tu3tEBV

Cracker of a race - it was pretty hard to keep track of all the different strategies and action. Brilliant race by Verstappen, I don't like him much but he is driving incredibly well right now - so well that he is raising so many doubts about the quality of Norris and Piastri.

Diver quality isn't a zero sum game. Lando has matured a lot this year. I'm not a big Max fan either but it's hard to deny that he's a beast.

The thing that proves Verstappen is just a beast is the fact that he's in a close 3rd in the championship despite essentially having ZERO support from his teammate(s) all year.
The ability to have a teammate following closely for strategy calls is huge.
If Red Bull had a second driver that could at least keep within a position or two of Max all year, this would have been a very different championship.

I was trying super hard not to comment, but HOLY EFFF WTF IS WRONG WITH Elkann, he should be the one STFU....
REALLY BRO, REALLY !!!!
AFTER LIKE MULTIPLE YEARS @ FERRARI, YOU BLAME THE FUCKING DRIVERS FOR LACK OF A TITLE?!
Lecler and Hamilton dont deserve this.... you gave them a piece of shit, its a miracle that Lecler can compete in this trash... fuck...
And even when the car and driver somehow in a miracle gets it right... the strategy on the pit wall is just completely baffling...
never forget 2022 Monaco lolol... but just the constant bad calls and weird calls that cost Lecler positions...
ok... end rant

In F1 there's always this debate of "Is it the driver or is it the car". I think when it's mostly the car, you see both of a teams' drivers very close to each other. In Max's case it's clearly the driver.

I think as with era's of domination in the sport, its a combination of things. RB has designed a car which is REALLY fast, but it must be driven in a very specific style and has a VERY small window. Max is able to drive the car in that style better than anyone, which could be due to his specific driving style OR he's phenomenal at adapting (I believe the later). His ability then pushes the design further down that path.
We saw Vettel dominate with the blown diffuser cars, but he wasn't able to show the same dominance later with rule changes. Which highlights the impressive careers of drivers like Schumacher, Hamilton, Alonso, and Verstappen.

RB designs the car to suit Max....every failed 2nd driver has said this.
Checo was the only one able to drive the car anywhere near to Max
