Since Max bought Redline some years back, how is that even supposed to work? Max decides on whether he enters races with Redline, no one else does.

@@EntropicExergy sarcasm, mate.

@EntropicExergy ummmmm, it's a joke bro. Wow.

@@EntropicExergy Come on now lol use your brain.

@@EntropicExergy lol, ouch. To be fair mate. I missed the sarcasm too. Then again it's like 4am and zi just woke up. 🙃

exactly, if he was that kind of driver he wouldn't keep pushing when he is 50 seconds up the road, but he does anyway

Finally someone who gets it. Max doesn't sandbag, and 2023 is the proof of that. If he has a good car, he would extend he gap because he's Max.

He does make mistakes when hes under pressure everyone does. Its just that he usually isnt under pressure anymore so now that he is people see his mistakes and think he cant take the pressure but they are fools. ALL of these drivers have been competing since they were very young they are use to this its in their blood.

@@vashisl33tso you’d have to be comparing Max to a robot to say he makes mistakes like everybody else. The fact is he doesn’t. He used to have a lesser car and had to claw for pace, that’s when he made mistakes. Max didn’t even let Lando get a chance at an overtake, he was 1.5 seconds up with 6 laps to go. He was at one point losing 1 second a lap sometimes more for the 5 laps before that. How he found pace is magical. You’re a common hater and should really leave that crap to American sports. This is world sports, we should all have respect for the athletes and their accomplishments. And right now Max is Pele, he is Roger Federer

Max proved he can handle pressure with his first win in Barcalona with Kimi breathing in his gearbox for 30+ laps, lol

​@@vashisl33the makes less mistakes than other drivers imo. The pressure of a world championship is different than just to score a point.

Anyone who thinks Max isn't good under pressure, should watch the Barcelona weekend 2016 again! That race also underlines what Peter said early in this video Max has the ability to trust is driving capabilities and free up brain power. He actually used his knowledge of when the Ferrari engine derated, because the race before he drove a Toro Rosso with that same engine in the back!!! That helped him in knowing when he could ease off, preserving the last bit of life in his tires and when he needed to use his battery power! To hold off World Champion Kimi Räikkönen in a Ferrari (which at that point was a better car than the Red Bull), was nothing less than astounding!!

Agree to disagree. Max tyres were done.

@@alimantado373Lando’s tires were about to be too, if they weren’t already. That’s why he stopped catching Max so fast. Lando started struggling too.

@@darthmalgus232exactly. Everyone seems to be under some delusion that only Max’s tires were going away. Lando pushed those tyres and they got him caught up but unlikely on that circuit they would get a pass done.

Max is almost impossible to pass , one of the best position defenders ever.

@@alimantado373 After thinking back and remembering Oscar stuck behind Carlos and Yuki behind Sargeant for many laps after his stop... I have to say I agree and think he would not have made the pass. We'll never know as the race was 63 laps.

lol

He sure is!

That’s a bold statement.. he’s knocking on the top 5 but still got to prove it in another car.. as for most existing racer to watch he’s already no1…

@marksutherland I concur 🥰🤫🤐

On hards that would not work, and almost no battery reserve...

You know I think people only say that because he hasn't had any "car vs. car" pressure for a while and for some reason they think he couldn't handle it which is completely false.

Those people saying that has no clue who Max are. If anyone can handle pressure, it's Max. He IS Formula 1.

All the best drivers thrive under pressure. Max is certainly in that category

I thought he just said that they made Max sweat a little? Which is a complimnet isn;t it? Or did Cameron make something else out of it?

He’s just spitting facts.

@@frankellis9627 i agree sir.

I like Peter, also. But he is wrong on this. Watch the "ghost" comparison, with Lando, and see just how much time Max lost in sector three, esp in the last 3 corners... without the tow he would not have been on pole.

​@@turninflatYour lot are looking at this completely wrong. Was Max faster than the Mclarens by 2-tenths in the last run of q3? Yes. But he was only 6-hundredths faster in the first sector in his second run than his first run of q3. Which means he didn't gain 2-tenths from the tow, rather only 6-hundredths. Furthermore, if you had really paid close attention, you woulda notice that Max was consistently faster in sector 1, bcoz that is RB's strong sector.

Also within every team the drivers tow each other, they even have a set schedule per gp who tows who , its just news bc VER used a Haas bc mister Perez didnt make q3. Relax.

He is finally getting there, but it took him ages;-)

@@user-yk6wu2cp4y i guess we can disagree, after I saw the ghost video posting... with analysis. sorry i cannot find it now... not worth arguing about... we can agree Max is God.

Champion tax, since he is a multiple world champion they expect him to win all the time, which he consistently does. Tough to become DOTD with that.

Peter has been a big Max fan, from his first steps in F1!! 😄

Merc-fans? Peter likes Lewis more than anyone, but he also realises that there is someone who does just about anything just a little bit better And Cam has always been a total hamboy, but he is an intelligent chap who has learned a bit about the intricacies of F1. He still has a certain audience to serve, but imho he really shouldn't because quite a few of his subscribers are genuine F1-nuts who have no issue with someone displaying absolute greatness behind the wheel as much as we do like Cam's incredible wordsmithery btw. Especially when that someone is completely invested in perfecting his craft(again applicable to both😉). I, and many of my fellow F1-nuts, will always have an issue with someone who dresses up like a peacock and parades around. Despite that I acknowledge that Lewis Hamilton is a really, really good driver who made the most of being in the OP-car for close to ten years. In fact, I like the fella but he is definitely susceptible to what his fanbase wants him to be. His fanbase (and also about half of the orange army) I despise with a vengeance. They are toxic, they are mean, they are oftentimes incredibly racist and they have zero clue of what F1 is all about. Guys like Max, Charles, Lando and Oscar often chuckle and joke around when the journos try in every way possible to add a toxic bipolar narrative to all of it. To them it is, like Peter said, just a motorrace mate.

Max has been challenged one time in 2021 and he lost. As long as Max has no challengers he’ll be #1.

@@rosswilson8917 Just know that I just point and laugh at people like you.

@@rosswilson8917he won by all means

Max is the best of the latest 40 years!

@rosswilson8917 Lewis was challenged 2 times in that Merc and he lost both times...

He won't. Because there will always be excuses from those people. People that don't have a blind and irrational hatred for Max already know what he is capable of and don't need proof. The people who need proof will never accept it. It will always be down to his car being better, a decision going in his advantage, unlucky drivers, being favored in the team, cheating etc etc. Personally, if anyone still has to be convinced of his talent and capabilities, I highly doubt their motive and intelligence.

Max won 11 races in 2021

​@@herhel 10

1O wins before 2021... Please be consistent.

Verstappen : "We were two buddies out there. Q2 and Q3. I gave him a toe to turn 17 and he gave me a tow to turn 2. I think I did arrive a bit too quick for my liking because I did miss turn 2 a little bit. Overall, I think it did help me. When you are struggling all weekend and then finally it's coming around, you have to look for these little advantages to try and stay ahead. It worked out beautifully." Helmut Marko - “We should also thank Nico Hulkenberg. He gave Max a slipstream. He [Verstappen] made up two-tenths against Piastri and then only seven hundredths in the last sector." I don’t understand why people are offended that Max got a tow or not or how relevant the tow was to his lap. He got a tow! Big deal. It’s basically great track craft from the guy and he more or less said it himself. Where’s the beef here?

What theory… he got a tow. So what?

@@mrorangepeel659 so what? Poor journalism, that's what.

There've been countless Pole positions throughout the years, that were partially thanks from getting a tow somewhere on track during the lap! So I really don't see what the fuss is all about! Why is it all of a sudden such a big deal! Because it's Max Verstappen? And because he normally doesn't seem to need one? Pffff!!! 😮‍💨

@@mrorangepeel659 theres a sense that some people want to feel like they are the victims of some kind

I’ve always said the RB19’s performance lied somewhere between Max and Checo. It wasn’t nearly as dominant as everyone made it out to be. In Max’s hands it was unstoppable.

@@Oli-vt9sh 1 McLaren + 1 McLaren = 2 better cars.😁

This week you cant take it away from Max , and I despise him.😶

Simple. Biased because he is not a Brit.

Bitter he’s better than Lewis

Because they are unfortunately hamcucks, look at the coverage every day they constantly try and prop ham up, they never ever give an honest account that he is not what he was sold as. It's a shame as I love the sky style but the massive bias is disgusting.

It’s not just what they say, it’s the venomous tone in their voices. Specifically Crofty and Ted.

Everybody had been gushing over Max since he arrived at F1. He has been propped up given special treatment and fast lanes all his life.

Exactly. That’s why I’m a day one fan. All true F1 fans knew he was the chosen one from the beginning. This is a man who quite literally learned to drive before he could walk.

yes and actually already during karting he was second to none

Yup 49 points in a trash torro rosso. 2 4th places too. And scored double what carlos did

I agree; that is the ONE thing Max won’t do…he won’t play ‘games’. If he says the tires are off, it means the tires are off. He says it like it is

Agreed. Newey has had many times he didn’t get cars right. When he nails it, he nails it…but his record shows that he doesn’t nail it every single time lol.

Oscar😂

When he wins every F1 fan will be happy, just like Landos win.

He's incredible sir. That stoicism feels like championship material somehow :)

I think Red Bull needs to be looking at Oscar to replace Perez not Eeore, I mean Lando.

The Red Bull was the best car. You put Lewis in that Red Bull and he’s 20 seconds down the road.

@mrorangepeel659 here come the delusional british.

​@@mrorangepeel659 you mean 20 seconds behind Max

Max outpaced Lando from the first lap. Ofc its still the quickest car. Otherwise Lando would have stayed on him.

@@daverudai think it’s good to conclude that the mclaren and rb were abt equal and Max just drove astonishingly quick and on the hard, the mclaren was very clearly the quicker car because they had more downforce which is also better for tyre deg. Redbull struggled all weekend and chose to run less downforce so that they could have a go at pole but they sacrificed their long term pace which is usually their strongest feature.

Sam is Lewis his buttplug

That’s harsh… Max is a very fast driver. He just isn’t the best and so when I listen to Cameron and Peter on these podcasts I wonder what drugs they are on. Max still had the best car and Lando nearly beat him with the second best. I just think there is this huge hype train surrounding Max. Peter was even wrong on the Red Bull PU discussion - the Honda was sorted before Red Bull even took that road.

@@mrorangepeel659 spoken like a true Lewis fan 👍

Yep, I remember when Sam Collins said that Max was overrated....now 3 time World Champion.

​@@mrorangepeel659 McLaren was obviously faster than the Redbull on Imola, look at where Perez was the entire weekend. Max would've won it by 15 seconds if he and Lando would've switched seats

He has been there for seven years , it's about time he starts to do something .

@pietervanbreda4360 This has a lot to do with the upgrades in the Mclaren, he never really had a car to fight for wins before.

He has also had 5 years more experience then Oscar if you look at it like that Oscar will be a way better driver then lando with 5 years under his belt

@myslavi9500 Not necessarily. We are talking about 2 drivers who are already performing very close to the limit. Don't be fool to think it is easy for Oscar to catch up with Lando in terms of race pace. Norris is setting the benchmark really high, and I can't believe it is a Spanish f1 fan having to tell the British this🙂

Thank you sir. It's all PW, that. 😃

You don’t watch F1 lol …. Max and Daniel are 8 years apart 😭 lando and Oscar are 1 year apart catch up

Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏🏾 Thank you

Too kind. Thank you. The credit though, all Peter Windsor's. 🍻

Legend! 🙏🏾

Because he never gets the same upgrade as Lando immediately ,so always on the back foot and then the stewards always find a way to demote him behind Lando when he is in front of him on track , and we all know the Miami race was given to Lando by the racing gods as it would have been Max or Oscars race to win.

@@pietervanbreda4360 I can’t think of a single race where Oscar’s race pace was as good as Lando’s. If you find one feel free to point it out.

@@szymczak34 sprint in Qatar?

If you say him being heavily reliant on a front end slows him down in races, then why has verstappen got such good race pace, he has to similar driving style. Maybe the McLaren and Red Bull are different in the sense the McLaren is less accommodating to that style over race distance.

Yeah, the fact that Max is so good in Sim racing just underlines the talent on display in the real world.

Adrian newey didn't design that much of the actual car and floor. He spent most of his research time on the suspension. In fact he was one of the only people to work on the suspension in Red Bull so that he could prevent the porpoising and other issues that most teams had at the beginning of this new era. He has not been a full-time employee working on the Arrow side for well over 5 years. There was a point where he wasn't even really at Red Bull he was working on the Oracle sailboat. I know that everybody wants to know you to go to Ferrari or somewhere and. I just think he might want to take some time off and do things that aren't F1. Which is probably the only team that could interest him would be Ferrari so we could work on the hypercar and he can work on streetcars. And then there's the Williams ending his career we started his career in F1. I just don't think he likes the hustle and bustle of the circus the traveling constantly and specially it's all over the world it's not like it's just within a 6-hour plane ride. It's in a double digits or there is multiple layovers to get you to your destination. You may just want to go design whatever he wants to design.

Happens frequently when one talks with P Windsor

As long as merc keep showing that they can't build a competitive car (which is all Max needs) even if their lives depended on it, which they have been showing for three years, Max isn't going there.
