@@ntf9438 he got into a car(which everyone knows) is designed specifically to Max. The problem is max like a car that is almost un drivable by 90% of drivers. Chuck max into a new team next to an established driver he would really struggle I.m.o. he has driven for red bull for his entire career. He is a prime example of "its the car not the driver" max only won once the car was the best(we shall ignore 21 because it was 50/50 and a dodgy decision won it) he was outclassed that year and won on a fluke... the dominant 22 makes me think it genuinely was fixed... passing of the torch moment

I was already pre-rolling my eyes because a lot of these previous ones have been "here are the products I'm sponsored to sell you and here is why they are so great, wink wink." I mean honestly, who is that fooling when every essential you have has a big name brand on it, but this was just refreshing to just hear Alex talk about stuff I genuinely believe he uses. This is what's interesting about people, not what they NEED to sell us.
