ur not gonna get pole by running barefoot up eau rouge
u r gonna get pole by being in a top car and putting a solid lap together

in equal machinery piastri wouldn’t win a single race across the season

Verstappen leclerc and Russell would win most of the races
then maybe a rare lando, Oscar, or lewis win

pretty bad take
for he wouldn't be the best (that'd be max ofc) but he'd definitely win some
In answer to OP: a combinnation of both. It's ALWAYS a combination of both 😭
nuance exists

yeah i dont think you can get pole by running up eau rouge
dont think u can get pole in a lorry either

he wouldn’t
because piastri NEVER has weekends with exceptional pace
he just has consistent strong pace
compare that to someone like Verstappen with consistent exceptional pace or Russell/Leclerc who at times are ludicrously fast
and other than that strong
piastri isn’t a top 5 driver on the grid
he’s a jack of all trades, master of none

he’s skilled, but the car helps him

because piastri NEVER has weekends with exceptional pace
besides baku last year
and his this years baku was wild
slender island
besides baku last year
not a weekend with exceptional pace
got leclerc through smart strategy and that questionable rear wing
he was like a tenth faster than norris who was on a worse strategy

piastri isn’t a top 5 driver on the grid
who are your top 5 then?
slender island
who are your top 5 then?
verstappen, russell, leclerc, hamilton and alonso
slender island
yeah but that can win races
it wins races when his teammate is inconsistent

it wins races when his teammate is inconsistent
it wins races when the top drivers have an off day
or get bad luck
reef rain
verstappen, russell, leclerc, hamilton and alonso
hamilton and alonso way past it, particularly the former
might just make top 5 but definitely not both
slender island
it wins races when the top drivers have an off day
russell verstappen and alonso don’t really have off days
slender island
hamilton and alonso way past it, particularly the former
hamilton has been matching leclerc since the summer break so he’s easily there for me
and alonso is so consistent that he hasn’t been outqualified in a year or something stupid like that
not to mention both drivers were brilliant back when the circumstances actually favoured them (2023)
reef rain
and alonso is so consistent that he hasn’t been outqualified in a year or someth...
his teammate is the worst qualifier on the grid though

not to mention both drivers were brilliant back when the circumstances actually ...
and you have to be quick all the time, not just when the circumstances favour you
reef rain
russell verstappen and alonso don’t really have off days
very debatable
slender island
his teammate is the worst qualifier on the grid though
Alonso is the ONLY undefeated driver against Stroll in the same time period btw
Which makes it ridiculously impressive

Not really

BUT HES A LEGEND IN THE WET 🔥🔥

Which makes it ridiculously impressive
It's literally Stroll

It's literally Stroll
how come verstappen, leclerc, russell, norris and piastri have been outqualified by him in the same time frame lol

how come verstappen, leclerc, russell, norris and piastri have been outqualified...
some of those will have been anomalies, e.g. crash or team-related quali issue. a few of those have also been in cars that were worse than the AM at points
let's not be silly here, none of them were in the same car and once you introduce any context they all fall apart
