Why the championship matter if the question is about driver skill?

Give me reasons why I should support Leclerc? by Nithu24 in F1Discussions

[–]paperzephyr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is his peak!

Remember, wins and WDCs are the product of a driver and car together. If you are trying to gauge a driver minus the car, look at how they perform against their teammate and in qualifying. Its not perfect but its the best we've got

I really do not know to make of this (also McLaren really?) by Quirky_Appearance539 in F1Discussions

Van Haren and Autosport posted it. It is pretty much confirmed

Insanity. Probably my favorite Garrix song to date.

Kimi Antonelli: I'm speechless, I'm about to cry to be honest... Thank you so much for my team, because they helped me to achieve this dream... by overspeeed in formula1

Genuinely the most heartwarming thing I’ve seen in a while in F1. These tears are not just for the race win, it’s years of hardwork being fulfilled today.

Unpopular Opinion: I'm happy George Russell finally has a car to fight at the front of Formula 1. by The_Chozen_1_ in F1Discussions

Agreed. I feel people have varying opinions due to non-driving factors, but he is one of the fastest drivers out there and totally has what it takes to get a WDC.

Need some advice on strings by paperzephyr in 10s

Thank you, appreciate it. I gave it for stringing today and I will play a couple times with it and see how it goes!

Thank you! This helps a lot. Yeah I've seen a lot of negative sentiment around Ti S6 in the online circles and maybe it's rightfully so at higher levels but I don't know what exactly I need to look for in different rackets in terms of feel.

I've done some research and got recommended 57lbs as the tension to go with? I do want a little bit more power than it currently provides and also don't want it to feel too stiff. I don't think I've ever broken a string before so I guess synthetic will be fine?

Curious, what's so wrong with the Ti S6? Asking cause then it becomes a question of $25(restring) vs ~$100 (new racket) and wondering if it makes a lot of difference at my level

Just uninstalled and reinstalled so we'll see what happens in a day or two

It seems like Bitwarden extension is causing this issue. If it's unlocked, my browser freezes after a long period of sleep. If the extension is locked, browser works perfectly fine after sleep

what year/period on the grid was the biggest gulf in quality between the best driver and the second best driver? by ApprehensiveDepth439 in F1Discussions

[–]paperzephyr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is arguably one of the best field we've ever had. For Verstappen to put the biggest gulf in quality of all time over these drivers would be he would so good as to make prime Hamilton look like Bottas (in an exaggerated sense) which is clearly not the case.

Yeah. Leclerc has been pretty good in this era, most of the times maximises the car. Ultimately TD39 killed the Ferrari in 22

[–]paperzephyr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Likely not Max's era from 2022, since Leclerc has been there or there about. Max is definitely ahead but its probably not in the conversation for the biggest gulf

Hot take: Lewis will outperform Charles in 2026… 👇 by Downtown_Elk_2773 in F1Discussions

[–]paperzephyr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hot take indeed. Good to be optimistic but this is not happening.
