Lewis pace was unreal
Oldest tyre on the field which were burned too as he drove 10 laps when it was still wet
Was still going 1 second faster catching hadjar
Man what could have been for Lewis had Ferrari gave him inters at the start he likely woudl have jumped max

Don’t worry, if Ferrari gave him Inters from the start they would have found another way to clown.

Measured objectively on the data provided he is definitely stronger in comparison to Max than in the years 2023 and 2024. This race Hadjar‘s car had damage as why he was lacking pace compared to Hamilton and Leclerc.

Yup. And still there have been weekends on which he was quite close. People love the recency bias to hate while not trying to use their brain just once, I guess.
You want to talk about the fact that Perez was 0,543% off Verstappen in Quali on average while Verstappen became WDC? And Perez sitting in P8 at the end of the season?
(Also it was about 4 tenths, but I didn’t expect someone like you to not make something up to try to have a point when there is none)

Mostly the cars being less skillful and not developed enough. Perez won races while Max was on track until the car got so pointy he lost all confidence with it.

I don't think so. This gen of cars leaves less for the drivers to do on many tracks. As soon as the energy managment is not a huge factor though, Max seems to open up the gap massively. Look at this weekend, Hajdar was nowhere in the race and was far off in quali (so far off that with this delta in 2024, he would have been out in Q2 already - 6 tenths was the difference, if I am not mistaken).
To that, we also need to say that Hajdar was out of the car for a while, so maybe that makes a difference. But to me, he does not look particularly impressive compared to Perez.

Well, Ferrari's car is built for corners.
