I think this decision and the way Max immediately said that the lights have to be green for people to go around during the aborted start fiasco shows how much Max knows the rules and his racing IQ when it comes to strategy. It's another thing that separates him and Norris. Norris didn't know that he had to stay right where he was during that aborted lap. Norris also made the wrong choice during the rain in Russia 2021. These are the things that make Max better even when Norris has the better car.
Yeah max is the best player ever from this era on par with Lewis, Schumacher and senna yes Lewis people forget how good Lewis was and still is when overtaking and defending
If Lando finished first and Max, let's say, 5th... it would have been 26 point difference in three remaining races. That could have very well cost Max the championship.
@@NotAfraidToQuestionThings If my mom had balls she would be my dad. You can't trust Lando with a P1, from the moment it was annouced that it will rain all favours turned to max. P1 from max was a masterclass on his half but he would achieve podium in these conditions anyways.

Imo Mclaren’s biggest enemy isn’t Verstappen let alone Red Bull, It’s themselves. They cooked their own strategy, done this time and time again. Lando also bottles pole all the time, and just doesn’t have that killer instinct. Also kudos to Max for winning the championship, that was the greatest championship-winning drive I’ve ever seen.
Yeah McLaren don’t help themselves by constantly getting in their own way. It must also be quite nerve wracking watching Max just slice his way through the field. Probably adds to the pressure
Mclaren is responsible for most of what has happened to be honest. Of course, fact of the matter is Lando bottled a lot of opportunities, but the team does not hold his back like Red Bull does with Max. Its underestimated how important team support is. Take Hungary for example. They basically guilt tripped him into giving Piastri a win, after Lando basically saved both his and Piastris ass from turn 1, because were Piastri to try that divebomb on any other driver, both cars are DED. That ultimately had an influence on the rest of Landos season. Mclaren ruined Landos momentum. Had Mclaren tried to make up for Landos weaknesses (particularly mental ones) we might have had a title fight on our hands still. Of course, fact of the matter is Lando simply does not have that thirst for victory that a champion NEEDS, however I do think too much criticism is put on Lando and not enough on the team, as they share as much of the faults as Lando does if not more. What Mclaren has done is fucking disgusting this season.
Honestly, the McLaren of 2024 feels just like the McLaren of 2000-2012, just without a true S-tier driver. Even back in the 2000s/early 2010s, they were the masters of seizing defeat from the jaws of victory. Early 2000s was just Kimi constantly getting screwed over by his own car. 2005 they threw away because of reliability. 2007 they threw away because of Spygate. 2012 they threw away because of bad strategy, bad pit stops and reliability.
The British press skipping the post race press conference brings their ability to do their job into question. You know they don’t skip it if Lando, George, or Russell wins. Pull their credentials
That was bad - just screams bitterness and insecurity. People at some point will need to accept Max will be top 5 all time by the time is career is done. Him, Lewis Ayrton, Michael, and Alain (imo at least). Ordering them from there is subjective at that point and literally nobody can be objectively correct. Just personal preference
@@BMPHF1 Max is one of those once in a generation talents that came to Formula One, even if he was like unpolished diamond at first. I already had my eyes set on him when he moved up from karts, instantly felt like am seeing very similar work ethics to Michael but also similar raw speed, specially when its raining.
Norris wasn't WDC ready, his car was. People keep saying that Norris will gain experience this year and come back stronger the next year but I don't think so. Max destroyed checo's confidence just driving from P9 in miami 2023 and what happened in Brazil is just another level of confidence crusher. Max was fighting McLaren solo while his teammate is licking windows with stroll and still came out on top.

Max proved he’s more than just the car well before 2024. A couple times in 2015 I could tell the kid was different. Spain 2016 was just incomprehensible how cold that drive was. 2021 - if we ignore the bad stewarding - was outstanding. And he has the mentality of a warrior. Seen countless times him be knocked down, only for him to come back even stronger. That’s an insanely tough package to beat
@@BMPHF1 Yeah he did prove it to us well before 2024 and to any other person with common sense but there were still people or should I say haters that said max only wins because of dominant car. Well, I wonder what's their excuse for max winning is gonna be now
@BMPHF1 The huge difference is at Lando's age rn Max was fighting with the 7x champ and won on a 2nd best car. When max got the best car last year with the rb19 he just straight up dominated everyone with 19 wins. He is a generational talent and if you switch max or even Lewis with Lando during the middle part of the season where the Mclaren clearly have the best car then we know these guys would already have cleared the championship a few races ago. That's what separates a great and a good driver.
@@Rin-ob3is Next year we will also see Lewis in Ferrari which can either turn out great or be a complete disaster but 2025 teams so far looks so much better than 2024 which in my honest opinion will take out lando from the contest for WDC fully.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but the way Max said “Simply…Lovely, I’ll tell you that” with a pause tells me that he didn’t like Lando using his phrase which was undoubtedly a cocky subtle dig at Max(Cause he’s a bloody British with a vast vocabulary and chose Max’s exact phrase)
Lando is a weird cry baby, he literally said "it's not talent it's just luck" after the race when asked about Max his results... Naw mate, that's not luck, it's the combination of capable strategists & a _much_ better driver 🤷♂
Even Daniel knew it was kinda of a shady thing from Lando to say that knowing it's Max's line and said it in Max's home race. The funny thing tho is that Lando thought it's gonna trigger Max to perform less or be like a "ha!" moment, but it only motivated Max and that showed in Brazil with fastest laps after fastest laps. And the cherry on top is Lando going off and Max overtaking to be in P1 at the same time. Pure cinema
Mclaren sold the championship so hard 😭 Absolute masterclass by verstappen, when i saw p17 for verstappen and pole for norris i thought it was over, then 15 consecutive fastest laps later verstappen p1, insane drive Ferrari WCC?

You are all infected by your lousy media. Just an observation not trying to attack you, I liked your video.
Yes, Tommy from P1 comes to mind. But it’s okay to not like Max (although watching a few videos with him and Kelly’s daughter “P” would cure many of this). It just makes videos like this better: it shows how people can objectively give props to a great drive. It shows that they love the sport and can transcend the petty fanboy attitude that has been dividing the fans too much lately.
how the FUCK did norris lose 18 points to his title rival who started SIXTEEN places behind in the way slower car 😭😭😭 imma be honest there was never a championship fight this year. max has always been insanely clear.
Yeah fr. The hype only came as a result of McLaren getting faster and Red Bull getting slower. Otherwise, Lando vs Max isn’t a rivalry. It’s more of a father-son relationship
I’m so glad this season has happened… because if anyone who keeps shouting it’s the car, it’s the car… Lando shutting all of you muppets up forever. You can have the best car, if you haven’t got the driver that can reach the level of consistency needed to win a championship, it won’t happen. So stop trying to belittle what drivers like micheal, vettle, lewis and max have achieved. Lando is in the best car since about the third of the season, and has fumbled the whole bag. Respect to max that’s a legendary drive, this is why I personally don’t get into debating who the best is. The amazing sports people I’ve been able to witness in my life time in all sports is a luxury.
Norris doesn't have the bastard mentality. Verstappen does. There's not many with that mental strength, but Verstappen is one of a few that possesses this. I honestly think this is Norris' one of only title shot. Piastri seems to be the better driver already, and has such a calm mindset its quite frightening. Next season could be one for the ages.
@@BMPHF1 Agreed, I am a Max fan, but will never belittle the enormous achievements of Hamilton and while their rivalry at times went off the deep end, boy was it exciting to follow F1 then. Leclerc will always be the coulda woulda I'm afraid though he is a superb driver.
People seem to forget Hamilton pulled that off in 2 races ( sprint + gp) it's not he went from last to first in 1 grand prix. But still, it was a masterclass drive of Lewis.
Go look for Brazil 2016 (Hamilton won that one) but Max run and overtakes due to 2 wrong pitstops and tyre changes and still somehow ending 3th..Witness the commentary and enthousiasm from Sky towards Max back then.
Mad Max is the best Max Lando reeked a bit of rotten papaya. Les Bleus were magnifique. Charles against Max next year pease. Stroll was actually really smart to crash out . He didn't care for being a bouncing ball for 69 laps. Did Lewis actually say that this was his last race for Mercedes? That was a strange radio message. Charles asked his engineer what the fastest lap was and his engineer replied " you don't wanna know. I wish I could be as calm cool and colkected like GP. Love the mans voice over the radio. Damon Hill, just shut up and be humble for once . And that goes for Sky too.
GP is up there with Bono as one of the coolest, calmest race engineers ever. Especially for GP, this guy knows how to keep Mad Max in check 😂. Just perfect replies every single time. Their relationship is part of why Max is so successful
Nah bryan didn't say u dont wanna know to charles 😂 He just told him the time It was the commentators who said u dont wanna know I see so many ppl saying this Where r y'all getting ur info from😭😭
That vsc in sprint race just blew my mind, all the credits of FIA claiming how they keep improving the system of driver safety just went down the toilet completely. Bro with professional training and years of experience sitting in their office with high tech monitors and equipment, could not file a VSC in time until the McLaren swap position. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!! Oh and don’t forget that free getaway from incorrect starting procedure + rejoining the track unsafely, TWICE. Thank goodness Max won the race and saved this sport from becoming a show with pre-wrote script.
don’t you think it is a bit early to call him GOAT? am fan of Max, but common, there is still lot of apex in front of him….. let’s keep manners and wait for a right moment to give such statement
@@Rakonjack No driver in the past had so many rule changes to his credit. No driver ever got Lauda taking his headpiece off and praising that driver as the talent of the century. No driver in the past made a team switch (Torro Rosso to RB) and won directly. (granted it did help Hamilton en Rosberg knocked each other out that race) But he still had to pass Ric and keep Kimi hot on his tail lap after lap behind him in a slower car No RB wasn't the fastest car by a long shot in 2016. No driver ever before had 2 times the wrong tyre choice on him and still managed to reach the podium. No driver ever before had 2 4th place finishes in a lower midlevel car. Max can show an insane list of records he broke longer then anyone else on the track. If you judge only on the number of worldchampionships won then sure Max isn't the GOAT... YET! Remember dude Hamilton had his first World title when he was 23 years and 300 days old.. Max was 24 years, 72 days in 2021 so there isn't that much difference still time for him to catch up if he decides to stay around that long. It looks like it's a given that Max will win his 4th title in a row. From there he needs only to win 2 times more somewhere in the future to become on par with Shumacher & Hamilton in world titles as well. And he's only 27 Hamilton is 39.
i think this whole season and the title race will make lando realize that he doesnt have that extra 10% in the tank that world champions like the likes of hamilton or vettel do, and i doubt he'll mentally recover from this season, atleast not for a while IMO, in any case love you vids big dawg, keep em comig
Ty for the luv as always 🫶. I also don’t think Lando will recover any time soon. This season has been very tough on him mentally and some people just aren’t built for it. Which is fine - everybody is different. He just gets affected by small things too easily. Whereas Verstappen got unlucky with a badly timed red flag, he used it as motivation.
Isn't it funny how Hulkenberg get's disqualified because Marshals touched his car, but Lando, who starts another lap whilst not allowed and thus endangering the marshals on track that are recovering the vehicle is a simple 5k fine. Also, Lando has made the same mistake in the past, going an extra lap whilst there was a red flag, and he got a 3 place penalty on the grid (is normally 5). So to be giving him a slap on the wrist is wrong.
Congrats on the win lad! Your boy absolutely bossed it. And don’t think I missed that lil “Simply Loveliii” revenge for Zandvoort. Must’ve hit like crazy 🔥 🎉
Your videos have become mandatory viewing for me. You're so reasonable, as well as insightful. No clickbait, no chaff, no sponsored ads, just entertaining commentary from start to finish. This is the winning formula right here. Keep it up!
This is the reason why max is a 4 time world champion. I think his fight with Hamilton in 2021 completely raised his bar way beyond average wins. You can’t win a championship with so many mistakes like Lando did, the team and driver should be in perfect sync without silly “papaya rules “
Whether you’re a fan or not….You’ve got to applaud that Drive from Max. I wanted this championship battle so bad but Boy! Have you got to appreciate that Performance.
Lawson on his 3rd race this year P5 qualti gets spun by Piastri loses places and gets screwed by the team strategy to stop for wets when a red flag was coming soon and still holding off Hamilton and Perez for P9 is a fantastic drive without wrecking the car on a track he hadn't driven before the weekend and on wets and inters he hasn't driven. Yuki's experience showed and he was brilliant also.
You know what, I didn’t delve too much into Liam which I should have. But you’re absolutely correct. He was phenomenal. Ollie and Franco struggled quite a bit with the conditions. Liam’s race went under the radar.
@@BMPHF1 I have to remember to imagine if the incidents were the other way around to make sure I am not too 1 eyed in my view. But yeah it hurt when Colapinto crashed and Ollie spinning it was wild out there. The talent coming is amazing but rain is no joke.
2:41 I know right max is the type of guy that see something and keep it in his inventory. Only to use it when no one expects. Cough cough Monaco 2022 to Brazil 2022
Bro It was raining since the FP day, Interlagos city (where I live) always rain on november and december. There was no luck or surprise, everybody was ready for the rain
@@51bikerboy that's a ridiculous statement, did you already forget 2021? Mercedes put a fresh engine and low drag setup on lewis and he did a last to first with only straight line passes.
Exactly. Max is seasoned. He’s been through pretty much everything one could put him through. Whatever he’s doing now is either side-quests or adding to his legacy
@@BMPHF1 Yeah. He already cemented himself as one of the best ever to do it in 2023 or 2022. He's just showing everyone that he's not a one season wonder
For me I didn't think a championship fight unless lando go it down to 30 points or less with at least three races to go and he had a great opportunity to do it this weekend and bottled it. Max just showed why he's a cut above everyone and lando still needs alot to learn and McLaren before they can win championships. Also my guy lewis had it bad this weekend think he would've been better off in senna's car instead.
As a lando fan, this was a monstrous drive from verstappen. Bit annoyed that Lando and McLaren Fumbled so hard and I’m just hoping for an insane title fight in 2025. I also think it’s shocking how toxic some f1 fans are and especially the British media are when their drivers aren’t on the podium.
this is such a well made video, and it resonates in so many ways. It seems obvious to me that Max has a Senna-esque mental/intellectual advantage to everyone that Lewis is going to find hard to beat in the Ferrari machinery
You have a very vivid and distinctive auteur as a content creator, which I both apreciate and admire. Thank you for your service. Always happy to see a new vid pop up!
Mad Max in purest form has appeared in this chaotic GP now this might have nothing to do but I'm sad about Colapinto, will he get another opportunity with this? I hope I'm just exaggerating...
Also sad about Franco. I think he’ll be fine tbh. Those were some crazy tough conditions. Even Fernando was like they should safety car or stop the race.
@@BMPHF1Thanks for the reply! Yes I hope.. I mean if many more experienced drivers were struggling maybe they should not let go of him despite what happened but what do I know
Yes, back when Max was first joining F1 people said that his driving style was only comparable to Senna and I honestly think that if anyones Sennas successor, it's Max.
Definitely. Hamilton does have a good relationship with the family and the foundation, but his style comes from the school of Lauda and Prost. Senna was a passionate rebel (yet very knowledgeable), aggressive on wheel to wheel and always hungry for fasts laps. He would’ve liked Max a lot.
And also safety car help after safety car help after red flag help. Wasn’t impressed with max I was impressed by the FIA and now bamboozled by the way, people reacting to this easy win by Max
The thing was with more than 20 laps or so Lando was struggling behind George and then Charles while Max was putting faster laps after laps in heavy rainfall where most of the drivers struggling
Pity that some only remember the red flag that got Max and others get free pit stop but forget the red flag that saw Max eliminated in Q2 (P12 before penalty was applied)
Not to mention that the stewards waited for Lando (who was in the elimination zone) to cross the line before calling that red flag. May have been a nice bonus to push Max where Lando was, but it really shows where their dedication lies. Not with the (medical) helpers or the stranded driver who is a sitting duck on a proven hazardous location, but with their self-assigned national hero who is free to endanger them all.
I knew he was going to win this race (once we knew it was going to be a wet race), we watched that onboard from the 2016 Brasilian GP about 30 times (the 20 minute version) and there was no doubt in our minds that he would win. The bookies hate me now.
I just think it's funny that the britsh media believe that lando is on the same level as Max. Max is exceptional, Norris is just a fast driver when he got the fastest car, it's sunny en there's no one to put pressure on him. Not even close!!
First time watching your channel. Great summary of the weekend! Overall cool video. About the race, Verstappen proved to be the best driver currently (in the last 4 years).
17 fastest laps and 15 overtakes on a slippery wet track with new asphalt, where everybody else driving like a sissy and many are still flying off. That is *no luck* . And Max was already on P2 when the safety car came out. And then having the coolness of mind to wait for the inevitable red flag, that is the *killer instinct* of the true *champion* .
We saw Lando's career peak and I think he knows it too. He's never going to have a better shot than 2024 at winning the championship and he blew it quite dramatically.
Ocon’s lost Mercedes seat is always one of the biggest what ifs to me. Really wish they’d given him a chance. Although, there was just nowhere for him to fit. Prime Hamilton was there and Bottas was the perfect wingman. It’s probably for the better now tho in hindsight cuz Mercedes don’t look great rn
Honestly I think it's impressive for Ollie to not crash in these conditions (besides the Colapinto incident). He didn't crash at points where other much more experienced drivers have crashed.

Yes, Tommy from P1 comes to mind. But it’s okay to not like Max (although watching a few videos with him and Kelly’s daughter “P” would cure many of this). It just makes videos like this better: it shows how people can objectively give props to a great drive. It shows that they love the sport and can transcend the petty fanboy attitude that has been dividing the fans too much lately.
how the FUCK did norris lose 18 points to his title rival who started SIXTEEN places behind in the way slower car 😭😭😭
imma be honest there was never a championship fight this year. max has always been insanely clear.
Yeah fr. The hype only came as a result of McLaren getting faster and Red Bull getting slower. Otherwise, Lando vs Max isn’t a rivalry. It’s more of a father-son relationship
@@BMPHF1Father son relationship has me crying 😭
It was obviously luck
@@Warlun888 keep crying. max is so clear
@@Warlun888 Yeah the luck was given to Mcalren in the sprint by fia
max is pure skill and lando is FIA
I’m so glad this season has happened… because if anyone who keeps shouting it’s the car, it’s the car… Lando shutting all of you muppets up forever. You can have the best car, if you haven’t got the driver that can reach the level of consistency needed to win a championship, it won’t happen. So stop trying to belittle what drivers like micheal, vettle, lewis and max have achieved.
Lando is in the best car since about the third of the season, and has fumbled the whole bag.
Respect to max that’s a legendary drive, this is why I personally don’t get into debating who the best is. The amazing sports people I’ve been able to witness in my life time in all sports is a luxury.
As soon as I saw Max jump from P17 to P10 in the first 2 laps, I knew it was over for Lando.
Norris doesn't have the bastard mentality. Verstappen does.
There's not many with that mental strength, but Verstappen is one of a few that possesses this.
I honestly think this is Norris' one of only title shot. Piastri seems to be the better driver already, and has such a calm mindset its quite frightening.
Next season could be one for the ages.
Schumacher was the same and that's why he and Max are multiple times world champions.
Yeah Lando's done💀
Doubt he’s coming back from here 😭
Lando is better off now to keep Leclerq from becoming 2nd in the drivers championship! His lead over Leclerq is down to 24 points.
Landone Cookednorris
brazil 2021 and this year brazil GP are some of the greatest single drives ive seen
Also 2016😊
Absolutely. Max with the 5 place grid penalty with the engine too (just like LH). This was just the wet-weather version. Two legends!
@@BMPHF1 Agreed, I am a Max fan, but will never belittle the enormous achievements of Hamilton and while their rivalry at times went off the deep end, boy was it exciting to follow F1 then. Leclerc will always be the coulda woulda I'm afraid though he is a superb driver.
People seem to forget Hamilton pulled that off in 2 races ( sprint + gp) it's not he went from last to first in 1 grand prix.
But still, it was a masterclass drive of Lewis.
Go look for Brazil 2016 (Hamilton won that one) but Max run and overtakes due to 2 wrong pitstops and tyre changes and still somehow ending 3th..Witness the commentary and enthousiasm from Sky towards Max back then.
It was like he was driving in the dry. It was like the rain didnt bother him at all. Amazing.
Max has trained in the snow, even though he was really freezing to death...
Mad Max is the best Max
Lando reeked a bit of rotten papaya.
Les Bleus were magnifique.
Charles against Max next year pease.
Stroll was actually really smart to crash out . He didn't care for being a bouncing ball for 69 laps.
Did Lewis actually say that this was his last race for Mercedes? That was a strange radio message.
Charles asked his engineer what the fastest lap was and his engineer replied " you don't wanna know.
I wish I could be as calm cool and colkected like GP. Love the mans voice over the radio.
Damon Hill, just shut up and be humble for once . And that goes for Sky too.
GP is up there with Bono as one of the coolest, calmest race engineers ever. Especially for GP, this guy knows how to keep Mad Max in check 😂. Just perfect replies every single time. Their relationship is part of why Max is so successful
@BMPHF1 when are you going to do an episode on the race engineers? So many interesting personalities.
Nah bryan didn't say u dont wanna know to charles 😂 He just told him the time It was the commentators who said u dont wanna know I see so many ppl saying this Where r y'all getting ur info from😭😭
Thanks for mentioning Kimi's race, that's what I was thinking too, its a rare talent to munch up a field in the wet like that, balls of steel.
it's kinda bittersweet that max shares a rare record with kimi ^^
Him and Kimi I feel are the most similar personality wise. No bs. Just that Max loves to YAP 🗣️ whereas Kimi is 🤐
That vsc in sprint race just blew my mind, all the credits of FIA claiming how they keep improving the system of driver safety just went down the toilet completely. Bro with professional training and years of experience sitting in their office with high tech monitors and equipment, could not file a VSC in time until the McLaren swap position. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!! Oh and don’t forget that free getaway from incorrect starting procedure + rejoining the track unsafely, TWICE. Thank goodness Max won the race and saved this sport from becoming a show with pre-wrote script.
Max's GOAT status is firmly cemented after this race. No 1 can ever take away that from him
don’t you think it is a bit early to call him GOAT? am fan of Max, but common, there is still lot of apex in front of him….. let’s keep manners and wait for a right moment to give such statement
@Rakonjack Max is up there , what you see now can go toe to toe with any legend F1 ever had
@@Rakonjack No driver in the past had so many rule changes to his credit. No driver ever got Lauda taking his headpiece off and praising that driver as the talent of the century. No driver in the past made a team switch (Torro Rosso to RB) and won directly. (granted it did help Hamilton en Rosberg knocked each other out that race) But he still had to pass Ric and keep Kimi hot on his tail lap after lap behind him in a slower car No RB wasn't the fastest car by a long shot in 2016. No driver ever before had 2 times the wrong tyre choice on him and still managed to reach the podium. No driver ever before had 2 4th place finishes in a lower midlevel car. Max can show an insane list of records he broke longer then anyone else on the track. If you judge only on the number of worldchampionships won then sure Max isn't the GOAT... YET! Remember dude Hamilton had his first World title when he was 23 years and 300 days old.. Max was 24 years, 72 days in 2021 so there isn't that much difference still time for him to catch up if he decides to stay around that long. It looks like it's a given that Max will win his 4th title in a row. From there he needs only to win 2 times more somewhere in the future to become on par with Shumacher & Hamilton in world titles as well. And he's only 27 Hamilton is 39.
@@Rakonjack I genuinely think he is, or at least top 3 ever
@@randar1969tldr
i think this whole season and the title race will make lando realize that he doesnt have that extra 10% in the tank that world champions like the likes of hamilton or vettel do, and i doubt he'll mentally recover from this season, atleast not for a while IMO, in any case love you vids big dawg, keep em comig
Ty for the luv as always 🫶. I also don’t think Lando will recover any time soon. This season has been very tough on him mentally and some people just aren’t built for it. Which is fine - everybody is different. He just gets affected by small things too easily. Whereas Verstappen got unlucky with a badly timed red flag, he used it as motivation.
Lewis had a 20% more powerful engine! Since he lost that advantage he never won a world championship!
@@51bikerboy when did you start watching f1
Max the legend,Lando the crybaby😂
Max=GOAT
The small fine for starting infringement is absolutely insane to me honestly
Literally right? These subjective penalties are so ridiculous
@@BMPHF1 it's like they're trying to downplay it because "Norris already lost so many points this race 😢😢" like dude where even is fairness anymore
This was SIMPLY LOVELY
Isn't it funny how Hulkenberg get's disqualified because Marshals touched his car, but Lando, who starts another lap whilst not allowed and thus endangering the marshals on track that are recovering the vehicle is a simple 5k fine.
Also, Lando has made the same mistake in the past, going an extra lap whilst there was a red flag, and he got a 3 place penalty on the grid (is normally 5). So to be giving him a slap on the wrist is wrong.
I said i was a max fan last vid and im still here max is on top 🎉😊
Congrats on the win lad! Your boy absolutely bossed it. And don’t think I missed that lil “Simply Loveliii” revenge for Zandvoort. Must’ve hit like crazy 🔥 🎉
@BMPHF1 the simply lovely was definitely for Lando you can just here it in maxes voice
After this race, Max can be comfortably be put amongst the very best to have ever driven F1
Your videos have become mandatory viewing for me. You're so reasonable, as well as insightful. No clickbait, no chaff, no sponsored ads, just entertaining commentary from start to finish. This is the winning formula right here. Keep it up!
Max was out there driving with something to prove and he proved why he is to never be underestimated because when it all lines up.....pure domination.
I was actually sat there in awe. Just pure cinema
This is the reason why max is a 4 time world champion. I think his fight with Hamilton in 2021 completely raised his bar way beyond average wins. You can’t win a championship with so many mistakes like Lando did, the team and driver should be in perfect sync without silly “papaya rules “
Whether you’re a fan or not….You’ve got to applaud that Drive from Max.
I wanted this championship battle so bad but Boy! Have you got to appreciate that Performance.
100%
Lawson on his 3rd race this year P5 qualti gets spun by Piastri loses places and gets screwed by the team strategy to stop for wets when a red flag was coming soon and still holding off Hamilton and Perez for P9 is a fantastic drive without wrecking the car on a track he hadn't driven before the weekend and on wets and inters he hasn't driven. Yuki's experience showed and he was brilliant also.
You know what, I didn’t delve too much into Liam which I should have. But you’re absolutely correct. He was phenomenal. Ollie and Franco struggled quite a bit with the conditions. Liam’s race went under the radar.
@@BMPHF1 I have to remember to imagine if the incidents were the other way around to make sure I am not too 1 eyed in my view. But yeah it hurt when Colapinto crashed and Ollie spinning it was wild out there. The talent coming is amazing but rain is no joke.
Waitin for this one felt like ages! I love your vids!
Ty for always supporting. They do take a while to put together tbf
@BMPHF1 no means of critisism brother! I was just really hyped and couldn't wait🙇🏾♂️
That must have been one of the most expensive F1-weekends in a long time
Max VS Charles battle next year
Whe had that already i like alonso,or piastri better
Max vs Lewis is the best
Max vs Charles vs Lewis
Lewis is cooked
2:41 I know right max is the type of guy that see something and keep it in his inventory. Only to use it when no one expects. Cough cough Monaco 2022 to Brazil 2022
This race was more about skills then speed, all the cars could drive the same speed in the rain. Max won from 17 without DRS. Remember that. No DRS.
9:59 just seeing ocons little smile made me so happy
I saw this on reddit: if people keep saying "its the car not the driver" then for Lando's case, its the driver not the car
Luck wasn’t the red flag. Luck was the rain. If it wasn’t raining Max wouldn’t be able to wipe the floor with such an amazing performance.
True. Interlagos really clutched up
The Red Bull looked good in the Sprint though
Bro It was raining since the FP day, Interlagos city (where I live) always rain on november and december. There was no luck or surprise, everybody was ready for the rain
Interlagos is more about the driver and far less about the car!
@@51bikerboy that's a ridiculous statement, did you already forget 2021? Mercedes put a fresh engine and low drag setup on lewis and he did a last to first with only straight line passes.
“This championship was never a contest, Norris just happens to be his closest challenger in second.”
Damn!!
Max was racing like dinner was getting cold. Also F drs
No DRS… just pure skill
Ocon literally grinning EAR TO EAR 😂😂 Love it
Really well put together video man. Legendary drive from Max. Road to 100k for the fam. Let's get it.
Thank you very much! Means a lot genuinely 🫶 100k #soon 🔥
While Max proved why he is an F1 legend, Lando proved he isn't championship material.
I've seen in the comments multiple times. Something along the lines of "Max showing why 3 WDC's are better than 3 Wins"
Exactly. Max is seasoned. He’s been through pretty much everything one could put him through. Whatever he’s doing now is either side-quests or adding to his legacy
@@BMPHF1 Yeah. He already cemented himself as one of the best ever to do it in 2023 or 2022. He's just showing everyone that he's not a one season wonder
For me I didn't think a championship fight unless lando go it down to 30 points or less with at least three races to go and he had a great opportunity to do it this weekend and bottled it. Max just showed why he's a cut above everyone and lando still needs alot to learn and McLaren before they can win championships. Also my guy lewis had it bad this weekend think he would've been better off in senna's car instead.
For real. Max’s level is unreal at the moment. It’s actually kinda peak that’s what Lando has to deal with 😭😂
This was the first video I have seen from your channel and I really enjoyed it. Keep up the good work!
As a lando fan, this was a monstrous drive from verstappen. Bit annoyed that Lando and McLaren Fumbled so hard and I’m just hoping for an insane title fight in 2025. I also think it’s shocking how toxic some f1 fans are and especially the British media are when their drivers aren’t on the podium.
this is such a well made video, and it resonates in so many ways. It seems obvious to me that Max has a Senna-esque mental/intellectual advantage to everyone that Lewis is going to find hard to beat in the Ferrari machinery
Great video man. Every take is just on point and even sneaking in things like 3:54 is just chef’s kiss
I watched that race twice, honestly I don’t understand how Max managed that!
I love how you are critical of max and rb but also fair and objective. Rare combo
The nicest compliment ever for Lewis and Max is coming from Lennie James in 2021 before the last race. Brilliant Lennie thanks 🙏🏼
You have a very vivid and distinctive auteur as a content creator, which I both apreciate and admire. Thank you for your service. Always happy to see a new vid pop up!
This was a harsh reminder that He is HIm on Wet tracks
I LOVE the production of this video. This is beyond excellent!
Unforgettable GP! Best F1 weekend ever.
Lando can’t even beat Piastri without team orders and upgrade priority
Yeah I forgot in Mexcio or Austin, Oscar didn’t have the full upgrades. Just let them hash it out for the rest of the season tbh
Mad Max in purest form has appeared in this chaotic GP
now this might have nothing to do but I'm sad about Colapinto, will he get another opportunity with this? I hope I'm just exaggerating...
Also sad about Franco. I think he’ll be fine tbh. Those were some crazy tough conditions. Even Fernando was like they should safety car or stop the race.
@@BMPHF1Thanks for the reply! Yes I hope.. I mean if many more experienced drivers were struggling maybe they should not let go of him despite what happened but what do I know
The British media hype up Lewis as Senna's successor but after Brazil, I think Max is more closely Senna material.
Yes, back when Max was first joining F1 people said that his driving style was only comparable to Senna and I honestly think that if anyones Sennas successor, it's Max.
Senna reincarnated as max and is banging piquets daughter by revenge
Definitely. Hamilton does have a good relationship with the family and the foundation, but his style comes from the school of Lauda and Prost. Senna was a passionate rebel (yet very knowledgeable), aggressive on wheel to wheel and always hungry for fasts laps. He would’ve liked Max a lot.
2016 brazil was the drive he showed his skills.
2024 brazil he showed a champions drive.
Bro deserves more support 💪🏿 banger of a video good job 👍🏿
Flying Dutchman indeed, drove the boat on water with the highest speed
Not only 0 mistakes but fastest lap after fastest lap after fastest lap.
And also safety car help after safety car help after red flag help. Wasn’t impressed with max I was impressed by the FIA and now bamboozled by the way, people reacting to this easy win by Max
@@F.F144 oooh the cope
Seen a few comments about Max and Lando. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Brutal but it works.
Great video ! i enjoyed it !😁
Tyty! Glad you enjoyed 🫶
The thing was with more than 20 laps or so Lando was struggling behind George and then Charles while Max was putting faster laps after laps in heavy rainfall where most of the drivers struggling
That drive was a statement
Max is the best driver since he entered F1.
Pity that some only remember the red flag that got Max and others get free pit stop but forget the red flag that saw Max eliminated in Q2 (P12 before penalty was applied)
Yeah it’s swings and roundabouts. Sometimes you’re lucky, sometimes you’re unlucky. Just the way it goes.
Not to mention that the stewards waited for Lando (who was in the elimination zone) to cross the line before calling that red flag. May have been a nice bonus to push Max where Lando was, but it really shows where their dedication lies. Not with the (medical) helpers or the stranded driver who is a sitting duck on a proven hazardous location, but with their self-assigned national hero who is free to endanger them all.
I knew he was going to win this race (once we knew it was going to be a wet race), we watched that onboard from the 2016 Brasilian GP about 30 times (the 20 minute version) and there was no doubt in our minds that he would win.
The bookies hate me now.
I just think it's funny that the britsh media believe that lando is on the same level as Max. Max is exceptional, Norris is just a fast driver when he got the fastest car, it's sunny en there's no one to put pressure on him. Not even close!!
Maaan I am so glad Max is taking this chip! Can you imagine how sickening Norris and the British media would be?!
Nah Sky Sports would’ve been unbearable lmao. I can’t stand when they hype Norris for doing the absolute smallest thing ever.
Perfectly analysed!!
The funny fact is that it was 62th win for MAX and he made 62 points ahead of Norris.
First time watching your channel. Great summary of the weekend! Overall cool video. About the race, Verstappen proved to be the best driver currently (in the last 4 years).
Wasn't a reason for the british media to show up at the press conference though, Buxton said it "Wasn't really worth interviewing about"
Never make mad Max angry.
17 fastest laps and 15 overtakes on a slippery wet track with new asphalt, where everybody else driving like a sissy and many are still flying off. That is *no luck* . And Max was already on P2 when the safety car came out. And then having the coolness of mind to wait for the inevitable red flag, that is the *killer instinct* of the true *champion* .
LOVED THIS VIDEO AND JUST SUBSCRIBED
Tyty :)
Bro, the video is good, the talk is small and good, you deserve a subsrcibe
Content is GOAT TIER BRO MUCH LOVE
Thank you!!! 🫶🫶
17!!!!fastest laps?!insane!
I got emotional when I heard the Dutch anthem on the top step of the podium. It has been so long 😢😢. I can only imagine how Lewis fans must have felt.
We saw Lando's career peak and I think he knows it too. He's never going to have a better shot than 2024 at winning the championship and he blew it quite dramatically.
If it were up to Leclerc, there would be always "inchidents in the race" when rain appears
11:24 - consistency is key 😂😂
Ocon is a mad lad some days, but he can give max a bigger challenge than Lando. Shame he never got a merc seat, because he always had the pace.
Ocon’s lost Mercedes seat is always one of the biggest what ifs to me. Really wish they’d given him a chance. Although, there was just nowhere for him to fit. Prime Hamilton was there and Bottas was the perfect wingman. It’s probably for the better now tho in hindsight cuz Mercedes don’t look great rn
fourth championship awarding to max coming soon LETS GOO, wasn’t even a competition tbf
This shows that the Brits can't drive in the rain but the french certainly can 😁
We’re washed in the wet now 😞😂
Max is great in all weathers but that is not true, Brits can drive in rain.
Honestly I think it's impressive for Ollie to not crash in these conditions (besides the Colapinto incident). He didn't crash at points where other much more experienced drivers have crashed.
Great video! Finally some non-British biased British media
