Tiresome to read these kind of comments. Best car doesn't automatically translate to the record breaking and matching results that Verstappen has achieved. He is probably the single most consistent driver ever. Certainly among the absolute top 3. And Senna might've had a world champion team mate, but so what? Leclerc wiped the floor with Vettel 4xWC in the end. Verstappen would've crushed several world champion drivers if they had been in Perez's seat.Just_a_fan wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 23:51That's what comes from having a dominant car and a weak team mate. Except for Senna who had a dominant car and a world champion team mate. Senna's performance is one of the reasons he's still held in such high regard.
Fair enough to still rate Senna or Schumacher or Hamilton etc as the best. Thats up to each and every person to judge.
But its cheap to imply that these records are to be expected just from having a good car alone. Hamilton had a good car. He broke other records, but not these. He is recognizing Verstappens achievements. Bitter rivals yet he's expressed respect for the achievements, as has Verstappen.
