Mark Hughes: Why upgraded rivals still can't touch Red Bull - The Race
Red Bull has barely developed its 2023 Formula 1 car. Rivals are throwing plenty of upgrades at theirs. So why is Red Bull still so far ahead?

Verstappen Is ahead, Perez no so much. This isn’t the same as when every race, Mercedes was 1&2 with Hamilton and Russell due to having a far superior car. It’s amazing there was continual talk of how Hamilton was one of the greatest of all time yet with Verstappen, it’s all credited to the car. Pretty shameful really

Ehh… I do remember a lot of people crediting the car when Hamilton was dominating. I think it’s just part of the sport.
Truth is: it’s both the driver and the car. Was the case for Hamilton, and is the case for Verstappen now.

Those that watched Lewis knew where the substance really was.
