what has norris done that he has better potential for the next wdc than leclerc? i see piastri probably having a better shot due to the car and all but leclerc as a driver probably has the best chance if luck is up to it

#

in terms of right now leclerc but as the next massive dominant talent probably piastri i agree

#

but leclerc has the best shot at taking max head on

#

he was able to do it in 22 and hes developed over these 2 years into a better driver than he was fighting for a championship with max

rocky laurel
#

he's likely improved from that

#

but 2022 kinda showed that he wasn't fully able to

#

but he had the potential

rocky laurel
#

and who they back

#

because I personally back Lando to develop into a driver as good as if not better than Leclerc because I think lando has already shown incredible pace and control in tricky conditions which Charles hasn't shown as much, and I think Lando has a good way to go before he hits his ceiling

#

but of course if Lando turns out to be at his ceiling

#

absolutely not him over leclerc

#

mate did u see spa quali

rocky laurel
#

one quali

robust monolith
#

blud pulled a lap faster than the mclarens and mercs in the ferrari which is arguably quite shit compared to those things

#

im saying hes not that bad in tricky conditions

#

NORRIS ON THE OTHER HAND

rocky laurel
#

and also that's just a Leclerc signature lap

robust monolith
#

sochi 21

rocky laurel
#

that's not driving in tricky conditions that's driving on the wrong tyres when it's pouring

robust monolith
#

china sprint was wet conditions? i forgot i dindt pay much attention

rocky laurel
#

china sprint quali got wet in sq3

#

the 3 drivers who were instantly up there

robust monolith
#

but yeah maybe lando is better in tricky conditions but its not to say that leclerc is ass in those

rocky laurel
#

lewis

#

alonso

#

and lando

#

and lando got pole by 1.3s

robust monolith
#

ig

#

its just idk man he cant start from pole

#

its actually insane

rocky laurel
#

that's fair

#

he cant

robust monolith
#

you could have said before miami that it was the stress of the first win but now

rocky laurel
#

but that's something that can be fixed because it seems to be a mental thing

robust monolith
#

like spain and hungary

rocky laurel
#

like his launches aren't too bad but his mindset is like instantly cover off someone

#

and turning and accelerating is not the fastest way to start

robust monolith
#

max does the same thing but he just has so much aura that no one dares attack him

rocky laurel
#

spa again, he just drifted wide because he was focused on making sure he didn't hit anyone on the inside

#

like man needs to have the confidence

robust monolith
#

idk man hes good but like he just mentally doesnt have the confidence imo

#

i would put good money on piastri next win than lando tbh

rocky laurel
#

maybe it's because when he starts up front he's usually been in midfield or podium cars at best and he's gotten used to 'ive gotta make this clean or I've let the whole team down for our one good chance'

#

and he needs like he said

#

'a reset'

robust monolith
#

but hes had so many oppurtunites bro its mind boggling

#

reminds me of leclerc in 23

rocky laurel
#

I mean hes not the only driver who has had issues with bottling

robust monolith
#

yeah leclerc ik

rocky laurel
#

his is just the most frustrating because it's not like he crashes

robust monolith
#

he just cant hold it yeah

rocky laurel
#

like Leclerc or George (Canada 23 was just funny)

robust monolith
#

1st = 3rd by the first corner

robust monolith
#

alex masterclass

rocky laurel
#

he just fucks his first lap and his incredible pace and tyre management which he has shown this season

#

all for nothing

robust monolith
#

exactly bro

rocky laurel
robust monolith
#

im surprised leclerc held the lead for a full lap lol

rocky laurel
#

and then had to retire later

robust monolith
#

i was being so pessimestic i told myself leclerc would lose the lead and end up p5 by the first lap

#

praying mclaren pull a stupid strategy in zandvoort i want entertainment if ferrari isnt going to be good

rocky laurel
#

from what I've heard Ferraris upgrades are at Singapore?

#

something like that

#

so zandvoort will probably be another max v mcl v Merc

#

max might struggle with the bumpy nature of the track

robust monolith
#

man if the zandvoort package works and bouncing goes bye bye i have serious hope

rocky laurel
#

probably won't do much

robust monolith
#

cuz when theres no bouncing the sf-24 is good

robust monolith
rocky laurel
#

and still leclerc was slower than max and norris

robust monolith
#

and still kept em behind

rocky laurel
#

but because that man is a quali legend

robust monolith
#

one lap master

rocky laurel
#

he had the advantage and spa was almost impossible to overtake

robust monolith
#

yeah

#

i mean he kept up with lewis for a good while

rocky laurel
#

plus if zandvoort is rainy again

robust monolith
#

and kept both max and lando behind

rocky laurel
#

cooler temps don't do well with the sf24

#

they made it very kind on the tyres it seems

#

hence why they were slow at China and canada

robust monolith
#

thats so that it has better tire deg in race

#

yeah

rocky laurel
#

so if its cooler here they just won't be able to generate as much tyre temp and not quick enough

#

but who knows

#

that's the beauty of F1 now

#

we don't know who will win

#

other than it's not perez

robust monolith
#

lmfao

#

bludicous really went p2 to p7
