Both Max and the 2024 RB20 are quite impressive. I used to think it was mostly the car but have been long since schooled otherwise.

What I do know is the redbull is a great car and much closer to the competition, with Perez at the wheel.. Max on the other hand is clearly a once in a generation driver.. i almost bet he could still win in a Ferrari

Ya he’s just in another league.. I’m not sure what will happen too the RB20 after 2025 or Max.. in equal cars across the board there’s no one that’s on his level..blueline wrote: Fri Apr 12, 2024 6:04 pmBoth Max and the 2024 RB20 are quite impressive.

I bet the reason Alonso stayed at AM is because Stroll has bagged Newey… that’s my guess. I’ve also heard from a friend in the euro F1 circle Mick might be the other Audi driver but are considering Vettel996C438 wrote: Thu Apr 25, 2024 2:07 pm Hot rumors.

Well one rumor is now official , Hulk has signed with Sauber/Audi .
https://www.planetf1.com/news/haas-conf ... -audi-move
https://www.planetf1.com/news/haas-conf ... -audi-move
Another rumor to add to the mix , Audi may go after Mick Schumacher to have an all German lineup . With Hulks experience that could be a good pairing .
I think the hot rookie Antonelli will backfill Sargeant at Williams and hot rookie Bearman backfill Hulk at Haas . A longshot............ Bottas replaces K Mag at Haas .
