I'll lose a lot of respect for Newey if he goes to Ferrari. Not that I think they will win anything anyway and hope RB does show them up in 2026 too.

That will happen for sure, new car construct will take 2-3 years for them to even get close to the RB series who will still be ahead.

At the same time, I do think Max will have his choice of team if the RB isnt good, but I certainly wouldnt mind seeing almost spec level racing to really see how much Max would beat everyone in equal machinery. |

As I said : Pierre Waché is extremely good and he's the new generation at Red Bull but actually the whole RB aero team . Think that Newey felt like he was put on a side ,probably he thought now It's time to go.. His concentration will go now for 100% to his RB17 hypercar and that's a fantastic project from him ! Newey will remain the visionary and the super aero genius..

The Japanese had to re-build the PU to make it fit in the RB20 , because the 2024 RB20 design changed a lot . The radiators and the oil coolers needed to be moved to make it fit in the special RB20 design. Same with ultra small gearbox , last year in the first 5-6 races they got issues with the small gearbox. The Japanese did a fantastic job to make it happen ! Again : Never split a winning combination ... Too bad !!!

using your logic we may declare Michael Schumacher (Merc) because of 2012 results is actually worse than Kamui Kobayashi (Sauber) also F1 is not a math test where everyone has the same questions and the answer sheet is repeatable, everyone drive different cars and sometimes cars crash, timely vs untimely safety cars, or cars don't finish the race for whatever reason, Jensen Button was a World Champion because of Ross Brawn's genius double diffuser, and then everybody copied and Jensen couldn't win a race but had so much lead he won the WDC anyway. He's still a WC and I'm still not. Last edited by G30M; 05-03-2024 at 05:00 PM.. |

So if Max doesn’t win anything after this set of regulations, are we going to have the same conversation of being overrated and overhyped or we going to make up excuses with hypotheticals without seeing the numbers? The success Red Bull is having now is an exact mirror of Mercedes during their era. You have the best car paired with the best team with the best driver. That is literally what F1 is - it’s a constructors sport not an individual drivers sport. When 2026 comes, anything can happen but I wouldn’t be so confident thinking Newey’s departure isn’t going to have any affect. Everyone said that when James Alison left Mercedes thinking Mike Elliott and company would be more than capable. And look at Mercedes now. The team might have a good concept on paper, but sometimes it’s someone overlooking it making it all the difference. The zero pod concept theoretically works, it’s just that Mercedes couldn’t figure it out. The exact same thing could happen with Red Bull. |

The RB car has no distinct, or material advantage other than who is driving it. And yet, despite that, Max has made what MB did look somewhat mediocre (and they were the most dominant in history where avg and below avg drivers won). Not even Sch was this consistent (50 win race % - Max is 78% and Sch and Ham at 62%). Most points, most wins, most podiums in consecutive seasons and the list of records goes on and on. Plus Max is doing all of this in a grid of F1 that has parity of budget, restrictions for testing that impact the top team more cascading down, and F1 has never been this competitive or close from top to bottom. That all shows that with everything stacked against you, his driving sets it all apart. |

Bad blood between Jos Verstappen and Christian Horner. Jos has a massive influence on Max.

By the end of 2025 it will become clearer how strong and reliable Horners Ford PU will be . And if MAX wants then to leave the Red Bull Team , he will drive in the team where the HONDA PU is ... => https://gp33.nl/f1-nieuws/max-versta...gabod-mercedes

On the other hand, Max has only had 3 season with a good, not dominant car, (and ~60 races) and already over 100 podiums, nearly 60 race wins, and we all know Max doesnt need pole to win like some do but even those are starting to rack up (his pole to win ratio is much higher though for this reason).
