He talked a massive game during the opening races, but he’s failed to get into Q3 at half the races so far. It’s incredible how Verstappen just stomps everyone thrown into the other car, young or experienced, and in every area. I honestly don’t think Checo “the tyre whisperer” Perez is better than Ver at tyre-saving, nor strategy, nor raw pace…

Is there anyone who RB would feasibly replace Per with? Maybe Norris? I’m not a huge fan personally, but I know he’s got plenty of cachet at the moment.

    with the fact that Danny is a reserve at Redbull i’m sure the team has all the simulator data and know exactly which driver is the quicker of the 2. But i think if they did swap the 2, pace is only a small factor on that decision.
