Maybe the car is just really bad. Would be the first time a driver does make a difference. Not completely the same, but some time ago I read an interesting article about Marquez as he drove for Honda. And how he was able to drive around the weakeness of the bike but other drivers weren't. There are some parallels to what is happening at Red Bull: https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/marc-marquez-max-verstappen-red-bull-f1-cautionary-tale/29-03-2025 07:25

A very mature and smart reaction from Liam. He keeps the door open for future posibilities while he can improve driving for Racing Bulls.28-03-2025 07:47

But even after the first 10 races, he scored more then enough points to never really let Lando near the title. Yes, the first races surely helped to secure the title, yet those alone didn't bring him the title.29-03-2025 07:19

Well, he still pulled off a brilliant overtake in the last few laps, so perhaps he does bring something extra.23-03-2025 10:34

I think it was Coulthard that said something in the line off: "I don't remember any driver pulling off an overtake in that corner." To me it was a great show case of how good Max is in close racing and able to pull off a move that nobody expected.23-03-2025 12:10

Wow, you don't remember the overtake Max made on Charles, or you don't want to give Max credit for performing in an average car? Just to refresh your memory, here is a link to the video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rOMZrPyyON0&pp=0gcJCfcAhR29_xXO23-03-2025 16:58

I don't need the highlights, I watched the race and the overtake from Max was the best on a very unusual place. An overtake from a driver that is able push his average car more then most drivers. Or like a lot of pundits say, the best driver in the current field.23-03-2025 21:49

Lol, there weren't many overtakes on the same spot. Perhaps with DRS in turn 1, but not in turn 3. That is why it showed Max is still the best driver on the grid. Kimi shouldn't have been driver of the day. He drove a solid race, but did nothing to justify the driver of the day. In my view it was Piastri. The total package was just too good. Leclerc seemed to benefit from the vroken wing as he was clearly faster then Lewis. Yet in the end it didn't matter, because both cars were found to be illegal.24-03-2025 06:47

True, driver of the day isn't about someones ability. For that I siggest sites like The Race: https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/f1-chinese-gp-2025-driver-rankings-edd-straw/ By the way, how many overtakes were done in turn 3? Or will you admit that you made a wrong comment with the second part of your comment below? "Vegan Warrior 4,9k Yes it's was a great overtake, on of many. There where many overtakes in the highlights many at the same spot ?."24-03-2025 14:59

Great deflection. A general comment with no facts or actual figures. Can you specify the overtakes you valued most in turn 3? By the way, to whom do you pay attention, only Norris? For sure it will not be Ferrari as Max alone scored more points than Ferrari.24-03-2025 18:22
