    +0.8 from VER is insane. If he wasn’t around this would be a massively competitive season, Perez in the RB is about equal with everyone else. Max just has something else

        There’s a pretty good argument to be made that Perez is underperforming, but yeah, it’s near impossible to tell when max is his teammate

        Sergio definitely isn’t a bad driver, he wouldn’t be in a Red Bull if he wasn’t, the last couple of races obviously did go wrong though. I think P3 like now is where I’d expect him normally, Verstappen is just on another level

          Don’t worry about it, they’re constantly changing everything all the time, it’s hard to keep up.

            Championship points were always awarded.

            Last year they had qualifying for the sprint race and the sprint position determined your grid position for the full race.

            This year they have qualifying for the full race, then qualifying for the sprint race and your position in the sprint race has no bearing on the full race.

            It’s like a mini race weekend in the middle of the actual race weekend.
