Decoding Racing Styles: Windsor Explores Verstappen vs Perez Performance Gap
In the aftermath of the Belgian GP, Arturo Elías Ayub, who holds significant influence as a key supporter of Sergio Perez due to his connection with Carlos Slim, voiced his perspective in an interview with Fox TV (Latin America). Ayub's stance revolved around the assertion that Max Verstappen's car should inherently display a more remarkable pace compared to Perez's vehicle. He emphasized that the variance in speed between the two drivers couldn't be solely attributed to Verstappen's prowess alone.
A recently shared video, drawing from the latest images accessible through Red Bull's media hub, features Peter Windsor dissecting the distinctive driving styles exhibited by Max and Checo. Windsor sheds light on how these contrasting techniques could indeed contribute to the performance asymmetry witnessed between the two racers. Notably, the video comprehensively addresses the implausibility of any Formula 1 team, including the prominent Red Bull Racing, deliberately compromising the efficiency of their technological components.
In a comprehensive analysis that extends beyond Red Bull's domain, this presentation also incorporates supplementary visuals courtesy of Scuderia Ferrari. By doing so, Windsor further illustrates the divergent approaches adopted by Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. To provide context, it's important to note that this video segment has been meticulously curated from the livestream broadcast on this specific platform on August 02, 2023.

I highly doubt Red Bull would deliberately make cars used by Max's teammates worse in performance.
Yes, I typed what I did in the earlier article, but at the very least, the difference is mostly down to Max's general form, if not wholly.
If the Pérez car is de tuned and he is a good but not exceptional driver and still beats all the other teams just how far behind are they?
Common lament in every paddock throughout every class, pro and amateur, in the world. "If I had that car I could win, too." Undoubtedly heard in the Paris paddock in 1894. smh :)
