You Are Wrong

Once again you are talking nonsense. I don’t want to be rude, but I just can’t take it anymore…

Red Bull:
David Nalbandian – 5,945.312
Chloe de Saint-Germain – 5,188.116
Dexter Morgan – 5,456.601
Asdrubal Pinto – 4,837.163
Lumi Vaara – 3,682.734
Sergey Sidorskiy – 5,089.281
Lucas de Saint-Germain – 5,774.595
Julius Graff – 5,136.517
Alexey Miller – 4,423.478
….

Alexey Miller was already driving in Formula 1 for 5 seasons with Audi. This is the reason why his rating was not higher. Lumi Vaara was in Formula 1 only for one season before joining Red Bull. However, Williams was very uncompetitive that season and his rating took a very big hit. Because Red Bull knew this would happen, they signed their season sponsors at the beginning of the season when his rating was still very high (4,968.651).


McLaren
Ivan II Szabo – 4,141.365
Michael Damon Novikov – 4,906.531
Lukin Kaderabek Jr – 3,369.668
Franciszek Bum – 4.310,706
Artem Markelov – 4,214.964
Danny Doucet – 3,622.606
Aurelijus Zemekas – 4,141.365
Enrique Morales Garcia – 4.824,255

….

Markelov’s and Doucet’s rating was low because they drove in Formula with uncompetitive cars at various points of their career. However, both drivers were world-class when it came to their skills. Othe the other hand, you have Kaderabek Jr and Szabo. Both only 28 when they joined McLaren with a lot of potential.


This is the other thing all of those drivers have in common. All were already max-out of had potential to do so in the future. In most series, secondary skills are not that important. In Formula 1 they are. This is why McLaren sometimes signed drivers with a lower rating. They had to compromise and having a more skilled driver trumps a higher rating in the long run. Red Bull was better at attracting world-class drivers with a higher rating and that gave them the edge.

This is a reaction to following press release:

While a very simple analysis says Drivers ar3e what keeps top team on top.. But they do not get the best drivers at the start.

Drivers are important to every F1 team.. But in todays MRC then numbers of drivers in the 4k plus range.. Any of those drivers with 4k rating and 100 personals could step into RBR car and get the same results. F1 MRC is not even the best place to ju...
