Wolff: Verstappen makes F1 rivals look 'like a field of F2 cars'
(www.motorsport.com)
Make a better car then
Yes. But I foresee a Toto Directive being penned one of these days.
Additionally, looking at how Checo cuts through the field vs how Max cuts through the field I firmly believe that Max really is the speshul sauce that sets the RB apart from the rest.
It's the best car, for sure, but it isn't 30secs per race better than the field unless Max is driving it.
I'd pay real schmeckos to see Lando, Piastri, Russel, Fernando and Lewis do runs in it to get an average baseline of it's performance.
Like let Max, Lando, Piastri, Russel, Fernando and Lewis take the ten teams cars for a "road test" type showdown on a few different types of tracks and then give their verdict on the cars.
What I would give to have Lewis and Max on the same team. Or even Max and Fernando.
The last time Max had a challenging teammate was Ricciardo but he's definitely evolved since then.
Honestly, this race has probably been the most boring so far...
