The differing feelings experienced by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton with their contrasting cars has been analysed.

Hamilton has still not won an F1 grand prix since 2021, while Verstappen is already on course for a fou🔯rth consecutive championship after cruising to victo꧂ry in the first two races of this year.

But the feeling inspired by their respective machines has a huge part to play, Liam 💧Lawson has explained.

The Red Bull reserve driver - who shone in a brief stint with AlphaTauri last ye🧜ar - has seen the RB20 up close and personal, and knows how it can aid the team’s star driver.

Lawson🌌 said about working within Red Bull o the : “Oꩵbviously it is a great opportunity. If I could choose any team to be with, it’d be this one.

“Because I have direct a▨ccess to all o♋f the information and how he does it. And how the team does it.

“The main thing - confidence level. Max’s confi𝓡dence level with that car has got to be higher ⛄than anybody’s.

“If you look at Lewis, for example, who is o💮bviously not 100% happy - and hasn’t been - with that car.

“You’ve got to🍷 imagine that every time he approaches the start of a qualifying lap - or any🧔 lap, really - he’s not going to be 100% confident with what he’s got beneath him, and know what it’s going to do.

“Whereas, with Max ⛄is at right now with the Red Bull? The car is in such a good window and he’s so comfortable with it.

“The best way to look at it is;𒐪 when you look at his qualifying lap from Jeddah, he doesn’t miss an apex. And he gets so close to the wall in places.

“Turn 4, I’m pretty sure that hℱe touched it on the inside. It is extremely difficult to do, to be th🍬at precise.

“It’s not just Turn 4. It’s Turn 10, Turn 22 as well, everywhere. He is🤡 so precise an🐷d it’s because he is so confident with the car.

“It’s those things that really make up lap time.”

Can anyone catch Verstappen this year? Even his teammate Sergio Perez h♒as racked up two consecutive P2 finishes despite the pressure on his own position.

Sky Sports’ Ted Kravitz does not expect Mercede⛎s, McLaren or Ferrari to seriously ch🐎allenge Verstappen.

“I don’t really hold out a🥂ny optജimism that people will close up,” Kravitz said.

“ꦛThe𒅌 Red Bull develop like everybody else. They have their development plans.

“It is only a launch ⭕car, a Race 1 car, at the moment.

“I’༒m expecting them to stretch their legs in Australia. Suzuka? Max could win by that legendary 25 se🐟conds or more.”
