  • Only caught the highlights, but what happened Perez? That second RB seat seems to attract terrible performances from otherwise pretty decent drivers.

    Like Schumacher era Benetton and Ferrari, when you build a car for what one exceptional driver likes, you make it very hard for anyone else.

  • I mean, Verstappen did win his first race with RB. Ricciardo & Kyvat didn't struggle as much as Perez, Albon, Gasly (& Vettel in his later RB years). I'm guessing it's more a general style that fits some drivers and takes others some time to get up to speed with (much like Ricciardo in the McLaren). Though I wouldn't be surprised if they're currently chasing raw pace and Verstappen can deliver that, as long as the number 2 can score enough to keep them ahead of McLaren & Ferrari I guess it's not a major problem.
