bwahahaaaaa 🤣😂🤣😂 NOOOOO.! though I think Max will struggle to win another race because the FIA have finally done their job and found something that was not right on that car, is why they are going backwards fast.. Max has enough of a buffer to just make it to the podiums and see it home because RBR will put all their efforts on that one car and Max will also have Perez blocking for him..! With their car advantage Norris should be able to catch Max because Oscar is driving great at the moment BUT
Norris aint that guy, Now he and his fandom are finding out that its not just about a fast car.. Truth is revealed on track, not with lip service in the British press or sky F1 bias punditry..
even if Mclaren put all their efforts in Norris and have Oscar play 2nd fiddle, they still got to contend with a fast emerging Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton, which should really help them, but we've already seen Norris falter when Max has had bad weekends.. No so Mathematically or not Max is still winning it but just..!
But lando lost 7 point through that piastri win. Maybe that’s the decision of wdc
You have to come to three before four!
Lando can win a race, Oscar can win a race and Lewis is still capable of winning a race, don't forget Carlos can win a race, and if everything goes right even Charles can win a race. And in the end, we have Super Max and the end of the season. Great video.
I choose not to waste 5:19 minutes of my life listening to some ridiculous scenario
Well we are confused now, Kym your are a pure genius and mathematician, love you work 🇦🇺👍🏎️
A Better headline, a positive one would be “Will Max win his 4th WC this season”. But ofc you don’t use that, cos you want to attract the Max haters to comment… a negative headline abt Max, or downplaying Max’s results or competence in any way or form, means click bait for Max haters ….. your only aim.
I’m not watching this vid cos of this click bait headline.
Lando or Oscar would need to win 7 out of the last 10 races to have a chance. I don't see that happening but Oscar is more likely to challenge Max imo. I think mercedes will take points away from mclaren. I think redbull may have had a car that was pushing the envelope to say the least for the first 6 races. Seems something might have changed from that point. Max is on 141 points over the last 8 races and oscar is 2nd on 126. Hamilton 3rd on 123.
Max is 3 penalty points away from a one race ban. And McLaren a privateer team (Using Mercedes engine) Will be constructors and drivers champion. I don't think a Privateer has ever been a champion. Jackie Stewart had a Tyrrell that was a March in disguise. If Ferrari get it together they can beat McLaren
mclaren have shown themselves of being unable to do the right thing for their lead driver.
It would take a miracle for Max Verstappen to lose the title on for Max to win this year. Realistically, it’s not happening.
The only way the title would swing is if somehow Max DNFs three races and the odds of that happening or slim to none. Max can get super aggressive to the point of compromising and threatening his race when people are about to overtake him for the lead, but I think he knows the math now and I don’t think he’s going to take the kind of chances he did in Austria risk more DNFs given that narrow Lando wins over Max will not get Lando the title.
By contrast, the constructors title is in play, and McLaren looks well positioned to overtake Red Bull and win
The fastest car usually wins. The driver has little to do with it.
The ones close to him in the championship are not consistent enough to catch up , they will keep taking points of each other till max wins
I don't think him not winning has anything to do with his form, thats for sure.
plus nope, Max will not lose the championship. Something must have gone sooo wrong in Red bull for that to happen.
Max will get a few more wins & then he will just finish on the podium pretty much every race with clever strategies to secure it.
what if Lewis wins all the rest of the races?
If Checco could learn how to drive and not crash, other teams would not learn Red Bulls Floor secrets.
50/120ths. 😂
Even if Red Bull do struggle there isn’t one other team / driver dominating enough to catch Max in my opinion. Look at recent races it’s been different drivers every time. Exciting but it means that no one will challenge Max.
Realistically only Lando can catch him..unfortunately the point's are being split by merc mclaren ferrari and Max
Hopefully
I wish your analysis was based on the last 5 races, not the whole season. The season changed dramatically in the last 5 or so races. The first half of the first half of the season was a red bull walkover and that influences the stats quite a lot.
He won't. He has accumulated a heap of points by virtue of RB's cheating with the differential brakes. Now that is no longer available to him he is back where he belongs, in the second or maybe third fatest car. Provided he doesn't revert to his old ways of knocking his rivals off the track, he can be caught.
Short answer no. Comeback here when Max wins the championship
The real answer to this question is, it depends on what Liberty Media concludes is the best outcome for their financial sheet.
Liberty Media manipulates all the strings.
Something was definitely found askew on the Red Bull car that was giving them that outrageous advantage
Can i make a suggestion, less videos. dont become a slave to the algorithm.
Max will win this year. Next year? Not so sure.
I'll tell you what will happen. Lando will have Max kidnapped and held until the end of the season, he knows Ricciardo won't do much if he replaces Max and so won't Sergio, Lando wins the title, after that he releases Max ….Lord, I gotta stop watching True Crime shows on Netflix … my imagination is all over the place.
Sir Kym, thank you for another grate stats video 😉
There’s a lot of reaching in this video just for clicks.
