It's more like 50% of driver ability when it comes to Red Bull. Nevertheless, hybrid-Mercedes-like dominance was never seen before when they ran their engines underpowered so that they wouldn't lap the whole field several laps.
50 % is Max? so what your saying is, Redbull team is worse than Has, But Max is dragging them up, with perez giving 3 % less than Max right? so for LH and co, it was the car, but for Max its Max...
Cool.
It's fifty-fifty; you either win or not. As we can see from Red Bull's win ratio '21-'24, the driver can definitely matter—a lot. Same thing happened last season in competitive Aston Martin where just one driver dragged that car into podiums race after race.
So why is Alonso not on the podium now? he get --- over the last season, or was it really the car? Would Max have found that extra 1.6 secs Alonsos AM finished behind Max in his Redbull at Spa in q3 If Max was in that AM?
Did Lando and OP suddenly get better? or did the car get better?
Or does this 50 % extra only come from Max because he is some kind of Demi God like Maui?
So you think, If say Alonso was in the Redbull next to him, you think he will beat Alonso by 1.6 secs still? does Perez bring more than Alonso? to a car? Casue Perez is ahead in the drivers champ. But its not the car right?
Is Lando, OP, GR, and LH now better than Max casue they are now on the podium and Max isnt? Or is that the car only?
Drivers cant get more out of a car than what the car is capable of, Doesnt mean drivers bring nothing, good drivers are able to get the cars max performance ( Well as close as possible ) they cant make a car go faster, you cant just slap on some go faster strips and gain 50 BHP, or stick Max in a mini metro and expect him to win the f1 drivers championship in it.....
Yeah he beats Perez, but like seriously, who wouldnt, He didnt beat DR.... over the time they was team mates. Max didnt even get a pole, Didnt make the podium as much, didnt get as many points, blah blah... but liek Max is supposed to bring 50 % right? DR bring 55 % then? Does Lando bring 150 % given he demolished DR?
