22 seconds on his teammate while starting 4 places behind him…

I wonder who from today's grid, when given a Red Bull car is able to give Max a real challenge? Charles? Lando? I think Oscar looks promising. I don't see anyone in RB's current line up being on par with Max.

[–] JimmyMcGill@lemmy.world 14 points 3 years ago (2 children)

Of all the drivers and you don’t pick the obvious pick?? Lewis Hamilton. I’d also say maybe Alonso and Leclerc.

Lando would put up a better fight than Perez though, but probably not over a whole season. Same with a couple of others.

Odds of Ham in a Red Bull are nill, Him in a Ferrari though? Maybe...

[–] SouthernCross@lemmy.world 1 points 3 years ago (2 children)

Hamilton is a Mercedes driver. I don't see him even considering RB.

Whether we like it or not, age has a massive effect on driver's performance. Lewis might still have it, Alonso too but the young guns like LEC, NOR, and PIA.. They're hungry for a championship win.

[–] JimmyMcGill@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

I mean it’s also unlikely af for the drivers that you mentioned. Other than Perez, Yuki or Ric no one is close to a Red Bull car.

I took your question as an hypothetical focusing purely on driver quality and not on the feasibility of them getting to a Red Bull.

Based on that interpretation your question has no answer, because no driver that is close to a Red Bull can get anywhere near Max.

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 2 points 3 years ago

I read your parent comment as being hypothetical, not tied to the driver actually having to have a contract with a team.

The only drivers who I think would trouble him are Hamilton, Norris, Piastri (maybe, he's got the pace but lacking experience), and Alonso. Leclerc is fast but too error prone.

Thank you for the spoiler-free title. The results table image seems like a good compromise.

[–] Radium@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 years ago

Yeah, easy enough to recognize and skip over if I haven’t seen the race yet

[–] koolkiwi@lemmy.world 9 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Tsunoda managing to score a point here is exactly what he needs to show, even if it required Sainz and Piastri retiring.

[–] blackstrat@lemmy.fwgx.uk 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

Daniel Ricciado should have been 18th

Tsunoda only got a point through Sainz and Piastri retiring. If they hadn't then Danny would have been 18th.
