    Doesn’t look great for Perez. Best car on the grid, still by a wide margin, and it’s almost a season’s worth of races without a win.

      Well kinda and kinda not. The reason he has no wins with the best car is because there’s also Verstappen with the best car beating him. Realistically he’s only had 2 chances to actually win a race, one in Singapore (but there RB really messed up with the config) and last race because Max retired.

        I don’t know man. Bottas did manage to sneak a few wins per year even though he was up against Hamilton

          I think that’s just testament to how dominant Max has been. The last win Perez got is the one that he snuck in and he hasn’t beaten Max since then (last race not counting).

      Damn, was not expecting Ricciardo to have a more recent win than Hamilton.

      He doesn’t. Lewis won the very next race after Ricciardo’s win in 2021. It’s just that Ricciardo had some time off, so he’s had fewer races total.

      One of the best drivers never to win a race. He deserves one last shot in a competitive car to show us what we’ve been missing out on for the last couple of years.
