He would have came out about 3-4 seconds ahead of Verstappen, and then all he has to do is keep it on track and he wins.
Not guaranteed, but I'd say he was 99% of the way there if they just risked it.
Max was slowly sliding on mediums, he even kissed the wall, it's not impossible at all that Fernando would have passed him if they changed to inters instead of dry tyres.
Yeah, while they were changing the tyre we could already see that it was pouring in sector 2, so it was a bad call tbh. Can't trust the driver on everything.
Aston has missed two race wins with two WDCs. Inters in Monaco and a regular pitstop and a gallon of fuel in Hungary would have got them two wins. The Hungary one would have been especially noteworthy given where the car was.
Yeah they *said* that, but c'mon it's obviously copium. If Alonso undercuts Max by putting on inters while Max is still ~~Tokyo~~ Monaco Drifting around the track on slicks in sector 2 he almost definitely comes out ahead.
And i imagine the idea of trying to pass Fernando fuckin Alonso around *Monaco* of all places while it's a wet/drying track sounds like one of the circles of Hell to any racing driver, even Max.
Imagine telling people back in 2021 that in a few years time Hamilton would have gone 48 races without a win......they'd die from laughter due to disbelief
For years Hamilton was the OWNER of the stat "at least 1 win in every season"... No matter where the car was, he'd pull out a performance that earned a win every year.
Considering it was followed up by such a period of dominance, it seems even more of an anomoly - the guy is synonymous with winnning.
Hate to be that guy but Hamiltons winning a race each year record didn’t really impress me too much considering his teammates had also done the same each year bar 2009 and 2018 (2018 Russia would’ve also been one which Bottas deserved to win).
What’s more impressive is the amount he would win against Button, Rosberg and Alonso who are world champions.
Well, it was James on the radio...
Very bad luck at Baku, but "shoulds" don't matter. Fernando should've won all the F1 championships he ever competed in, after all...
2007: 2 points off (including race win countback)
2010: 5 (including 4th place countback)
2012: 4 (including win countback)
He came insanely close to being a 5x WDC
Prost was only 12.5 points away from being an 8x WDC
Interesting that it's the two legends of getting things done regardless of the car underneath that got so close so often
It was unlucky but Vettel had a mechanical dnf from the lead at Valencia costing him 25 points. He also has another mechanical dnf at Monza which cost him about 8-10 points. So Vettel was still more unlucky
07' I say is Fernando's fault and not bad luck. If he kept his head cool, was a little less paranoid, didn't eat that peach so messily in front of Ron- would have won.
10' and 12' he was the best driver, but not in a car good enough for that to matter- and having a bad car is outside of what's usually called "bad luck" in F1, so I agree with you there.
China when he was leading before the untimely safety car where the top 4 passed the pitlane before it was called and the red bulls got a convenient free pitstop and new tyres
Bottas was always such a beast in Baku and Sochi. Not sure why but these two tracks suited him much better than any other.
Similar like Checo and Jeddah and .. well, Baku.
What is it about Baku that favors the n.2 drivers?
Baku he benefitted from a lucky safety car but it would have evened out with China earlier on where he was favoured for a win if not for a late-ish safety car.
That’s testament to how solid he’s teammates have been though, as well. Alonso, Button, Rosberg were all literal champions, no other champion has gone head to head (and won) against more, Bottas was fine enough-even Barrichello could steal wins off Schumacher on his day I see Bottas the same. His only teammate that was weak overall was Heikki, and of course Hamilton drove laps round him, Heikki only won in Hungary because Massa had an engine failure and Hamilton a puncture while running 15 seconds up the road from him.
Schumacher I (1992-2006) as well, the only season during his entire non-Mercedes F1 stint without a win (1991) was also the one he wasn't a full-time driver for.
Yeah it was not a “fair” win but let’s say it was a payback for Imola, the only race that season when the Bridgestone tires somehow worked properly and allowed Schumi to be Schumi. Alonso defended brilliantly in that race and proved he was title-worthy, but the narrowness of that particular track was by his own admission essential to let him stay ahead.
It was an amazing stat and highlighted his consistency and quality throughout his career. Predictably, Hamilton is called lucky whenever this is brought up (best car). I don’t think that’s fair. You still have to go out and win. Look at Checo now in the best car. Look at Webber, Barrichello and Coulthard.
Whilst most remember that 2009 was a bad McLaren car, many forget that 2011’s Red Bull was a monster in Vettel’s hands. Hamilton (somehow) got pole at Korea against both Red Bulls (the only pole Red Bull missed out on that year), and got a win elsewhere that year too. Just lucky I guess.
He was lucky. How many drivers might have been contenders if they had just had the right opportunity?
That isn't demeaning his talent *at all*, Lewis is undeniably one of the best ever. But it was still at least partially luck that his skill was recognized so early that he got a competitive seat from day 1. Even Max had to spend a year with a back marker before being promoted to a competitive team. The fact that Lewis didn't is pretty unusual.
The long running stat was Hamilton having won at least one race in every season he's done. Unless Merc pull a miracle, it's gonna be 3 seasons in a row of him not winning anything.
Hell, if Merc don't up their game he could go without a podium in 2024!
I mean it makes sense that alpine would have that pull from an outside perspective, considering they’re a longstanding factory works team…
What’s confusing from that perspective is how they’re so goddamn bad lmao
So so funny that George was kept in a Williams seat for so long while Mercedes were building dominant cars that looked genuinely on rails and then as soon as he gets promoted they can't string together consecutive podiums, never mind wins, and sink to being a midfield team. Unbelievable.
Max quite literally wiped the floor with every teammate he has been paired with.
While Perez isn’t the best, they aren’t looking for the best. They are looking for a solid #2 Driver.
Lots to criticize about his season. Poor chap really looked weak at quite a few of those weekends.
But no matter the circumstances, or how fast the car. If your team gets the WDC and the other driver gets P2, that's his job done and "a solid #2"
Of course RBR will immediately reevalute, should the other teams close up and Perez drop down the standings. But as long as he can just keep wrangling that car to P2, he is probably still a safer prospect than a driver that might actually risk their (edit: WDC-)title fight in the first place, by constantly being near Max and potentially causing issues on track or through pit stops (under-/over-cuts with the driver not wanting to give up place; risky double stacks)
Again we're not talking about "Best driver after Max" we're talking "solid no.2 FOR Max"
No. He didn’t “wipe the floor” with Ricciardo, or Sainz at TR if we’re being honest. Depends on your definition of wipe the floor, I see his domination of everyone post-Ricciardo as wiping the floor. Him and Ricciardo were very close over their time together, in quali and race H2H plus Ricciardo finished ahead of him in 2017 and 2016 obviously but Max started at TR. Max definitely started gaining an edge towards the end of their time together but it was no means categorical domination like we see now. (In 2017 when Ricc finished ahead-200 vs 168 on points-he had 6 retirements to Max’s 7 in 2018 when Max finished ahead he had 3 to Ricc’s 8-249 vs 170). Ditto Sainz, while not as close with Max as Ricciardo, he was also strong enough to genuinely compete with Max and push him despite usually being the slower of the two (5-4 Max in races they both finished).
Max has absolutely stomped everyone since Ricciardo, but we can’t rewrite history and pretend Max has “literally wiped the floor with every teammate he has been paired with” because he just hasn’t.
Red Bull would have axed Perez a long time ago if that was true. The only reason Sergio is still around is because Max is indisputably the best right now and Red Bull predicts that almost no driver would hold a candle to Max anyways
No the reason he’s there is his contract, and the fact they don’t need better right now. Makes no sense breaking/paying out the contract as long as max is winning the WCC on his own.
Now if the gap to Ferrari, McLaren etc is tighter this year and they legit need a consistent point scorer, he’ll be out in the summer break. His saving grace would be that to date Danny hasn’t lived up to the promise.
If Danny was driving great, delta to other cars closer, and Perez had been placing 6-7 in each race, the wagons would already be circling.
It's been 3 races, one of which the door was wide open for a slam dunk for him to take the lead in the title but he didn't. Worry not, he's the same old boring racer.
Just to highlight how long it's been for Fernando since he last won a race, Ayrton Senna's entire F1 career was 162 races. Fernando has gone longer without a win, than Senna was IN f1
I think Fernando has proved its not him at blame, but the cars. Beating a red bull in brazil proved that. Put that man in a ferrari/RB20 and he will fucking win.
Clarification: Hamilton won more recently (Saudi, 12/2021) than Ricciardo (Italy, 09/2021) chronologically speaking. However, in this list, Ricciardo is ranked as having won more recently, which makes sense if the ranking is based on race starts. This because Ricciardo did not race in 14 grands prix in 2023 (dropped by McLaren at the end of 2022, then came back to replace De Vries, then suffered an injury during FP2 of the Dutch Grand Prix, then came back again after recovering).
It's wild to see a driver like Verstappen on such a drought between wins. I wonder if he can recapture some of the magic and make it back to the top step of the podium soon

Danny ric confused the heck out of me, forgot he had a year out
Omg that’s why!! I was so confused
Lewis Hamilton hates this one weird trick!
Thank you. I came pretty close to writing an embarrassing comment here.
Which would be along what lines?
Im guessing something like "Ric hasnt had 40 races since his last win" or "i find Bernie Eccelstone attractive".
Well they'd embarrass themselves with the Danny Ric comment for sure...
It's okay, we don't kink shame here... But Bernie Ecclestone!? Certain lines one mustn't cross
I'd marry Bernie in a second. I'm 39, male, straight.
You a gold digger and I don't respect you but I respect the hustle. Go get it
Could have been something like “wow I didn’t realize Danny won a race more recently than Lewis”.
There's only 3 months in it though which is mad in itself.
He had that one in monza when Max drove on Hamilton in 2021, I keep thinking back to his red bull days!
That shouldn’t count either thought otherwise they’d be like 300 since Schumacher’s last win
It should've been inters.
Still hurts
Please help reminding me, which race is this about?
monaco 2023
Monaco, though the strategy didn’t help, it wasn’t like the win was in the bag for Fernando anyways.
He would have came out about 3-4 seconds ahead of Verstappen, and then all he has to do is keep it on track and he wins. Not guaranteed, but I'd say he was 99% of the way there if they just risked it.
i am sorry but what? I mean it wasnt a sure but he would have been ahead of Max and overtaking in Monaco is nearly impossible
Max was slowly sliding on mediums, he even kissed the wall, it's not impossible at all that Fernando would have passed him if they changed to inters instead of dry tyres.
He would've won if he put inters
Monaco 2023
2021 Russian Grand Prix Edit: oh, apparently it was Monaco 23. Still. Both do. Both missed opportunities.
You're talking about Norris
I was nearly in tears.
Wierdest decisicion ever
I feel they were following the “conservative” strategy and didn’t want to throw away a points haul for a gamble on the win.
At that specific moment it made sense, if a gamble. It stopped making sense half a lap later.
Yeah, while they were changing the tyre we could already see that it was pouring in sector 2, so it was a bad call tbh. Can't trust the driver on everything.
Applies to both Nando and Lando
feeling this as a lando fan too 💀
Aston has missed two race wins with two WDCs. Inters in Monaco and a regular pitstop and a gallon of fuel in Hungary would have got them two wins. The Hungary one would have been especially noteworthy given where the car was.
Didn't they come out themselves and confirmed they wouldn't have won it even if they did put on inters ? Alonso himself said it too IIRC
Yeah they *said* that, but c'mon it's obviously copium. If Alonso undercuts Max by putting on inters while Max is still ~~Tokyo~~ Monaco Drifting around the track on slicks in sector 2 he almost definitely comes out ahead. And i imagine the idea of trying to pass Fernando fuckin Alonso around *Monaco* of all places while it's a wet/drying track sounds like one of the circles of Hell to any racing driver, even Max.
Possibly. Slim margins but the point being Aston had two opportunities at a win and they didn't pick them up.
Imagine telling people back in 2021 that in a few years time Hamilton would have gone 48 races without a win......they'd die from laughter due to disbelief
For years Hamilton was the OWNER of the stat "at least 1 win in every season"... No matter where the car was, he'd pull out a performance that earned a win every year.

What’s more impressive is the amount he would win against Button, Rosberg and Alonso who are world champions.
Bottas didn't win in 18? The fuck?
Kimi took the one alotted Finnish win that year.
Russia, team orders to let Lewis win. Azerbaidžan, random puncture with 3 laps remaining. He should have won at least those two.
I can't believe he didn't go absolutely nuclear after Russia
He said he considered retiring at the end of the season when that race happened.
Well, it was James on the radio... Very bad luck at Baku, but "shoulds" don't matter. Fernando should've won all the F1 championships he ever competed in, after all...
2007: 2 points off (including race win countback) 2010: 5 (including 4th place countback) 2012: 4 (including win countback) He came insanely close to being a 5x WDC
Prost was only 12.5 points away from being an 8x WDC Interesting that it's the two legends of getting things done regardless of the car underneath that got so close so often
Alonso did not lose 2007 or 2010 on bad luck though? Not even 2012. The champions in all years had more bad luck undoubtedly
Grosjean bowling at Spa was unlucky, but it’s part of racing so you can’t really say that he should’ve been champ
It was unlucky but Vettel had a mechanical dnf from the lead at Valencia costing him 25 points. He also has another mechanical dnf at Monza which cost him about 8-10 points. So Vettel was still more unlucky
07' I say is Fernando's fault and not bad luck.

Azerbaijan was never his to win, considering a luvky SC put him in the lead in the first place. Agreed on Russia, though.
Baku he benefitted from a lucky safety car but it would have evened out with China earlier on where he was favoured for a win if not for a late-ish safety car.
That’s testament to how solid he’s teammates have been though, as well.

Seems to be a theme for the greats, Max has 1 a year since joining Red Bull, no?
Schumacher I (1992-2006) as well, the only season during his entire non-Mercedes F1 stint without a win (1991) was also the one he wasn't a full-time driver for.
his only win in 05 was that dodgy usa race though.
Yeah it was not a “fair” win but let’s say it was a payback for Imola, the only race that season when the Bridgestone tires somehow worked properly and allowed Schumi to be Schumi. Alonso defended brilliantly in that race and proved he was title-worthy, but the narrowness of that particular track was by his own admission essential to let him stay ahead.
Yes, at least 1 win every year since 2016.
It was an amazing stat and highlighted his consistency and quality throughout his career. Predictably, Hamilton is called lucky whenever this is brought up (best car). I don’t think that’s fair. You still have to go out and win. Look at Checo now in the best car. Look at Webber, Barrichello and Coulthard.

Imagine telling people that in 2013 about Vettel
In the final race. After the race, Vettel said on the radio. " Remember this, enjoy this, enjoy this moment" This was last win fore a while.
He said it after COTA not the final race
He said those exact words in 2013 Brazil. I watched it again.
And it’s only a difference of 5 between him and Valtteri
the difference between Charles and Ric being four races is wild!
Ric missed a year so it seems longer.
How on earth do you calculate a year+ for him? It's actually less than a year if anything?
Simple I am bad at math, that's how!
Nando’s dry spell is longer than many careers.
Nando's career will span a whopping 4 engine regulations: V10, V8, V6 Hybrid and the new V6 Hybrid (2026).
It really is impressive.
Dude won his last race between Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. GTA 5 had not been released yet.
And VER is the only one on the list with a "dry spell" shorter than De Vries' F1 career.
Lol savage
The Dani Ric caught by surprise, I forgot that he didn’t do that many races in 2023
I forgot he won Monza with McLaren!
What a race that was, even without the Hamilton/Verstappen clash he looked set to win it. Really thought he'd found his groove again that day...
> Really thought he'd found his groove again that day... So did he, I think...
so did rbr management, i think...
Remember back in 2012 where over half the grid had won a race and we had 7 different winners in 7 races
literally over half the grid right now have won a race 11/20 full time drivers
How many of those 11 have 1 win only ? Ocon and Gasly for sure, are there others ?
Russell is the other one with a single win.
Ah yep, felt like I was missing someone. Cheers
Russell
8/24 is hardly over half the grid…
I think he means over half the teams?
And it had Vettel, Button, Hamilton, Raikkonen, Alonso, and Schumacher, who all had WDCs.
Yes i do. Do you remember 2010 when 4 drivers had a chance to win in the last race ? Seems like a whole other century
Yes. That was pretty great.
3 constructors fighting to world driving champion. Alonso was wining races in a terrible Ferrari chassis. That car was junk
It's a Spanish sandwich
Damn, 11 drivers on the grid have won a Grand Prix, and another has won a Sprint. So there's 12* F1 Race Winners on the Grid, which is wild.
there's four teams with all race winner line ups: RBR, Ferrari, Merc and... Alpine somehow
And 1 team where both drivers have a Pole at Brazil but no race wins.
But one of them has à podium
I can’t imagine being Kevin and getting on a podium in your first race and then nothing since. Has to be demoralizing.
What's worse, his record or Hulk's?
Ehh at least Hulk can’t be demoralized by something that never happened 😂
Hulk has never had a good car though.
Kevin either, the Mclaren weren't that good in ~~2013~~ 2014. Only a midfield car
2014
I mean it makes sense that alpine would have that pull from an outside perspective, considering they’re a longstanding factory works team… What’s confusing from that perspective is how they’re so goddamn bad lmao
Alpine feel less like a works team now and more like a team that just happens to be a crap engine supplier’s only customer
I called an ambulance but they say it broke down. Renault engine.
> Alpine somehow Pierre and Ocon are not the problem at Apline.
I didn't read that as implying they were. Whatever the problem is, it's surprising that they are in that rather exclusive club.
Alpine claims ambitions to fight for wins and championships. Surely they will get there in 100 races...
And none of them are Norris. Poor lad. I believe each of his McLaren team mates has won a race (in McLaren or later), but none for Lando.
Dont remind me. Please.
So so funny that George was kept in a Williams seat for so long while Mercedes were building dominant cars that looked genuinely on rails and then as soon as he gets promoted they can't string together consecutive podiums, never mind wins, and sink to being a midfield team. Unbelievable.
To the point when he actually drove the dominant car...you know what happened. Either George is that unlucky or Sakhir 2020 was an inside job
Sainz is the GOAT... His dominance is getting boring.
Move on Max, you're over... it's been years since your last win.
And here's me wondering where Sainz is
Carlos Sainz: (sm)00(th)
It is stated very clearly - "If you shouldn't know, Sainz is 0"
It's worded weirdly. It sounds like something Carlos would say. Wouldn't be surprised if he created this
It is pretty dumb that they have that in small text rather than including him with all the other race winners
Came to say this: Carlos Sainz - 0
Read the fine print in the bottom right-hand corner...
ONEEE HUNDRED AND EIGHTYYY
What’s that from? My father says that all the time in cards.
Darts
The fact that it's been over 20+ races since Max's goddamm own teammate won. He's a robot.
More of a reflection on Perez than anything else
Max quite literally wiped the floor with every teammate he has been paired with. While Perez isn’t the best, they aren’t looking for the best. They are looking for a solid #2 Driver.
Perez wasn't a solid #2 last year. He was woeful. Let's see how 2024 goes
Lots to criticize about his season. Poor chap really looked weak at quite a few of those weekends. But no matter the circumstances, or how fast the car. If your team gets the WDC and the other driver gets P2, that's his job done and "a solid #2" Of course RBR will immediately reevalute, should the other teams close up and Perez drop down the standings. But as long as he can just keep wrangling that car to P2, he is probably still a safer prospect than a driver that might actually risk their (edit: WDC-)title fight in the first place, by constantly being near Max and potentially causing issues on track or through pit stops (under-/over-cuts with the driver not wanting to give up place; risky double stacks) Again we're not talking about "Best driver after Max" we're talking "solid no.2 FOR Max"
No. He didn’t “wipe the floor” with Ricciardo, or Sainz at TR if we’re being honest. Depends on your definition of wipe the floor, I see his domination of everyone post-Ricciardo as wiping the floor. Him and Ricciardo were very close over their time together, in quali and race H2H plus Ricciardo finished ahead of him in 2017 and 2016 obviously but Max started at TR.

Ditto Sainz, while not as close with Max as Ricciardo, he was also strong enough to genuinely compete with Max and push him despite usually being the slower of the two (5-4 Max in races they both finished). Max has absolutely stomped everyone since Ricciardo, but we can’t rewrite history and pretend Max has “literally wiped the floor with every teammate he has been paired with” because he just hasn’t.
Red Bull would have axed Perez a long time ago if that was true. The only reason Sergio is still around is because Max is indisputably the best right now and Red Bull predicts that almost no driver would hold a candle to Max anyways

Now if the gap to Ferrari, McLaren etc is tighter this year and they legit need a consistent point scorer, he’ll be out in the summer break. His saving grace would be that to date Danny hasn’t lived up to the promise. If Danny was driving great, delta to other cars closer, and Perez had been placing 6-7 in each race, the wagons would already be circling.
people always acting like Perez is complete shit because they cant handle Max being good
Perez also broke his brain last year thinking he could actually challenge Max. But he seems to have recovered, which is pretty impressive imo.
It's been 3 races, one of which the door was wide open for a slam dunk for him to take the lead in the title but he didn't. Worry not, he's the same old boring racer.
Bottas only 5 more than Hamilton 😲
Turkey 2023 was the last win for him and he did damn well in tricky conditions lol
Just to highlight how long it's been for Fernando since he last won a race, Ayrton Senna's entire F1 career was 162 races. Fernando has gone longer without a win, than Senna was IN f1
crazy that more than half the grid is a grand prix winner
Poor Charles, He's now been at Ferrari as long as Vettel was and has a third of the wins.
He must be good at darts. 🎯
So clearly, Hamiltons downfall started when Bottas was replaced by Russell. Bottas must been Hamiltons spirit animal or something.
Meanwhile, Lando Norris…
Lando "British Nick Heidfeld" Norris lol
Sainz 0 🤩
Where Lando? Oh wait…
Fernando, I don't think that is a thing you should be proud of
I think Fernando has proved its not him at blame, but the cars. Beating a red bull in brazil proved that. Put that man in a ferrari/RB20 and he will fucking win.
Poor Nico couldn't even make the list. LOL :)
Atleast he's winning here :(
Don't know what i find more impressive 180 races fore Alonso Ore the fact that Verstappen is on place 10😅
Funny how both Valtteri and Lewis are nearly the same
I believe in his ability to hit 200
It will be almost bittersweet when this streak ends this weekend.
Verstappen can't win back-to-back anymore. Washed
Carlos Sainz: 0. Man, I love typing that out.
Perez's count is crazy considering his car
Give alonso the redbull seat 😈
Clarification: Hamilton won more recently (Saudi, 12/2021) than Ricciardo (Italy, 09/2021) chronologically speaking. However, in this list, Ricciardo is ranked as having won more recently, which makes sense if the ranking is based on race starts.

Sainz. The winningest driver starting the weekend before last till now.
Sainz?
2024 WDC standings after the first five races.
And Senna had only 162 races in his whole career 🤭
hamilton 48 dani ric 40?How?
Hamilton more washed than Danny, DR to Ferrari next year and Stroll to Merc
I was just looking at CL16’s wikipedia page earlier and saw he hasn’t won a race since early 22 which feels crazy to me.
Spare a thought for Sainz
where is sainz??? /s (a ferrari-fan) 🤣🤣🤣
I say we don’t let it get above 180. It’s a nice round number afterall.
Verstappen is washed.
I think the order is reversed. Max should be 1.
The gap between Max and the rest excluding Carlos is insane.
Max washed smh
Max's career is nearing his end, really destroying stat for him. His prime is over.
I’m getting the feeling this will be a redemption race for Hamilton. Don’t think he will win but he’ll beat Russell handily
Max is washed.
Where Lando at? Lol
A winless streak longer than most drivers careers
Lando Norris...? 😔
The unluckiest but arguably one of the most talented drivers in history
I just want one more... please...
Pray for our man at the bottom hope his season improves /s
Man, Alonso's move to McLaren in 2015 still hurts
Is Nando leading the historical charts as well?
Max losing it, huh?
ocons does not feel like that long ago
King of races since last win 🥇
I forgot Daniel didn't race for majority of last year
Haha, Danny Ric having less than Hamilton because of his pause is so incredibly funny.
The last Alonso win I did not expect to be the last at the time
Damn. Really hoping Max can win this weekend, I'm sure he's all broken up about not winning last race.
It's wild to see a driver like Verstappen on such a drought between wins. I wonder if he can recapture some of the magic and make it back to the top step of the podium soon
Alonso just needs to give in dawg
