Both can be the case, I think its fair to say Max is better than average and checo is worse, My only argument is that we dont know which one of the 2 is the bigger outlier and I dont think we have a way of knowing for sure
Dying at DTS doing a whole episode about how George became team leader and the pinnacle is him winning at Spa and then they never mention he got DQ’d
Takeaways through episode 3... - Still really really dislike Max. - George is just so whiny. - Toto's wife seemed to really dislike Alonso. That wrinkled up face when Toto mentioned him as an option lol - The Kimi kid seemed likeable in the short time they showed him.
This…the first 4 episodes make you think Sainz is the second coming of Jesus Christ. Not a guy who finished 5th, nearly 100 points behind his teammate, and cost Ferrari the constructors title with his meaningless crash in Baku. Sainz and specifically his dad have always played the media game
There is so much history with Alonso going back to Spygate, crash gate, etc... that he's not worth the headache for a short term fix. There is a great BBC podcast on Spygate that I recommend for everyone in here. It details the combo of spygate along with Hamilton's rookie year and his fight with Alonso. https://www.bbc.com/audio/brand/p0dg9kj4
Warms my heart how the Haas employees were like why are you hiring this loser ocon? You go, old man in apron.
I honestly think DTS is taking a bit of a gamble the last few seasons by really positioning some of the drivers as likeable and heels.
as a Red Bull fan if Lawson sticks and max ends up retired or elsewhere that’s going to suck and I’m def hitting the portal.
Ha! I happen to like Toto, regardless if he's playing the face or heel role... committed to his redemption tour with Kimi, or not, I guess
Why is Cadillac coming in as a Ferrari team? I get they’re developing their engine but seems weird they’re gonna start life running someone else’s powerplant.
agreed, more specifically i really dont like it. They seem to have chosen a few sides in a way that will make teams more reluctant to give the access that made the show work
Ita really just reality TV at this point with how they edit everything. Which is ridiculous bc there’s so much baked in rich people drama already.
Cadillac needs some drivers that have experience developing a chassis. Checo ain't one. Also, reminder to read Newey's book. It's fantastic.
How far we’ve come from the days of setting vpn to India to get the $30 deal to fuck it, take $130 I don’t even care. I’m in for the native custom multi view
I couldn’t take anything seriously from his dts episode this year once his wife started yapping with yogurt all over her face.
To be clear, that was my ranking on who I like, not the best or most successful. I assumed that was a given considering the post above mine but maybe not.
