We must be watching two different championships. Here on Earth 1, Verstappen is winning by 20+ seconds like a boss and laughing at the checkered flag. And RBR have won all but one grand prix (and a sprint race). No, not dominant at all.

When they start locking out P1 & P2 in most races by 1 second over the rest of the field and lapping everyone in the race, then we can call it dominant. Other than that, it's down to the pilot, otherwise Per would be close. The only thing is, Max destroys anyone whereas Ham was never quite good enough to put much distance between himself and maybe average at best drivers like Ros and Bot at MB - hence all of the calls to 'not race', 'invert', etc.

MAX is extremely dominant ! MAX (Alone)! won the drivers and the constructors Championship ! Checo ? In this 2023 season , it was like Checo wasn't racing for the Red Bull Team in the same competitive RB19 car ! So far in this season : MAX-14 / Checo-2 Max Verstappen is the Red Bull Team !

Max is so dominate that he's rarely on the TV screen (unless there's a safety car)..we see the start and the first 4 turns, a couple of his pit stops, followed by a shot of him crossing the finish line and taking the checkerd flag. It's fine because the camera stays where there's actual racing action.

When you say he has a car perfectly suited to his style - that can work the other way too. His style has allowed RBR to take the car to a place that no other team can match. He can control such a pointy car at the edge in any situation while still preserving his tires better than anyone else on the grid at the fastest pace. His teammate obviously cannot do this with any kind of consistency in anything other than optimum conditions and still cannot match pace at that point. Once the car got to the point where VER started really dominating in '23 then PER's points per race plummeted. RBR was able to evolve the car into a monster with the right person behind the wheel - so in other words it's both. |

Talk about flogging a dead horse, there is yet another new floor coming for the Merc at Austin, what a waste of money being squandered on this mattress on wheels.

Getting top gear at your disposal is a good start, but can you handle it properly like an ace to achieve #1 results time and time again in all sorts of conditions ?

Excerpt from a Feb 4, 2021 article entitled "The elite group of F1 drivers with 50 wins and who could join them"
https://racingnews365.com/the-elite-...ould-join-them "Only four Formula 1 drivers have won 50 or more races in their careers, and it doesn't look like anybody will be joining them anytime soon. Here's an in-depth look at this distinguished group.Well, that escalated quickly. Less than a 1000 days have lapsed ever since and Verstappen is already at #49. He just turned 26 and is capable of also topping the race win chart someday in the future, jumping over Hamilton (currently 103 - possibly retiring at the end of the 2025 season) and Schumacher (91). Back in 1990 Prost celebrated his 40th race win:
