F1 Maximum Power Map - RB20 in China Q3: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/epmdk3tkaa57mqs.html

I dont understand how a guy that is in f1 almost 7years gets beaten so hard by rookie

Verdict: Skill issues

The difference between Alonso and Strolls car is between the seat and the steering wheel

Alternative Title: Why is Stroll so much slower than Alonso "all the time"

High downforce setup - Slower in High downforce corners ☠

Stroll's team radio in the race is the funniest I've heard in a while, that voice crack at end🤣🤣🤣

2:50 Sorry it's 3-1 so far in 2024, not 4-0 because Stroll beat Alonso in Australia Q3 this year. I forgot about it when making this vid.

strolling around the track

Its like they're in a different category

jesus christ alonso alone is making lot of money in the championship for aston hes worth everypenny to aston

Zero pressure to truly perform. Hope he goes to WEC soon.

The difference between talent and daddy's money

Suzuka is the ultimate drivers track, Stroll’s Achilles heel.

last stint in Japan stroll had softs and Alonso had hards , not in a single lap stroll managed to put a lap that was faster than alonso's , and alonso was slowing down to give piastri drs

Skill issue never explained this beautifully.

Love these kind of comparison videos dude, Nice work.

You have a double world champion racing driver (who won titles against Schumacher), and just a very good racing driver (none of us writhing here would never be even close to Stroll's driving skills, just because he is in racing for 20 years, with unlimited budget), so what is exactly unusual or weird?

Have been waiting for this analysis, thanks!!!

Great comparison, really easy to visually see how much Stroll is struggling with wrestling the wheel vs Alonso's smoother inputs 🏆

Stroll is slower in high speed because he's constantly losing lower gears to get rotation. Alonso is getting the rotation with higher gears which allows him to carry way more speed even though he's on lower downforce. Verdict is Alonso is driving with more front end and lower wing than Stroll is willing to do (most likely do to confidence and pure ability) and the lap times are showing every session

Difference between given seat and earned seat.

The answer is in the question

2:50 actually stroll beat alonso in qualifying in melbourne this year. It is 3-1 so far.

It's not just the higher downforce that slowed Stroll down but also the weight of daddysmoney and the abundand luck of talent.

A higher downforce rear wing doesn't affect the top speed as much in a DRS straight tho Given Alonso likes understeer it's quite possible that Lance ran a much higher front-wing.

Even with a higher downforce setup he got absolutely railed in sector 1, Stroll never fails to entertain

Nice video. It's so frustrating when teams don't reveal the real braking forces.

These are so good!

it's his absolute favourite track

"Its in the different category!" Miyuki Shiba to Lance Stroll: GP2 ENGINE! GP2 ENGINE! 😂

Nice video. Just out of curiosity , what did You blur out there? An add?

Looks like Stroll's setup was bad too though. I can see lots of understeer. To me this looks like they've chucked on a whole load of downforce at the rear without matching it at the front. Then of course there's the obvious skill gap, but I can definitely see an Understeering Aston on the left.

Remember, Stroll was very close to Vettel.

How about the steering wheel vibration? I see that Stroll's wheel vibrates more in curves, bad handling?

wow this put things on perspective, altho eating 300ms each sector, you can see its just a bit of a brake and the setup, stroll looks very competitive in my eyes, of course you need more than that on f1

I don't think stroll locked up at the hairpin. I believe his brakes were smoking. I believe he does more warmup with brakes on the outlap so at a low speed corner the brakes didn't have enough air through them

Stroll is actually fast when on his day, he has a pole position in the wet, but he never seemed to have fully understood how to drive these ground effect cars.

This video title is cold AF. 😂

Como em esportes de velocidade, décimos, centésimo fazem total diferença!

Honestly Stroll's lap is not bad. It's just that Alonso is still very quick and there're a lot of small things which he does better and that in the course of a lap add up to the final deficit. Kids in the comments saying Stroll is a bad driver have no idea how good someone like Alonso is.

Sometimes you get a gp2 engine and others you get a gp2 driver

Yes he's plainly slower than Alonso, but this is clearly an issue with setup. Too much downforce and the suspension wasn't set up to cope with it, the car is bumping all over the place in highspeed corners. And to top it off, the extra stiffness made it worse in slow corners as well. Yeah, Stroll isn't as fast generally, but that car wasn't set up well. Not easy to drive it like that and make no mistakes, especially when you're under pressure. It's easy to sit at home and just sh-t on somebody.

The difference between the cars wasn't as simple as mere setup differences. Stroll's car had "upgrades" and the team hadn't figured out how to set up the car to work with them yet. Compare this to their previous shared quali sessions that year and you can easily tell that their gap isn't actually this big. Stroll did beat Alonso before after all, and not just in the Australia Q3 session where Alonso had damage (which was Alonso's own fault). Last year, their average quali gap was on the larger side of the grid, but still not the biggest or among the biggest 3.

It could be interesting if they had put high downforce setup for nando

It just shows how Alonso is the GOAT

It definitely looks way closer onboard than the 7 tenths. I thought it would be a bigger difference

At 1:48 Stroll is going 216 KMH at 10389 RMP in 5. gear, and Alonzo is 211 KMH at 11641 RPM in 5. gear, seems like a big difference in gear ratio ? What am I missing ?

He’s always been so hack and slash with his steering wheel - unbelievable to think he was on a higher downforce set up with the amount of adjustments he makes during a corner, just pick a direction dude!

Reason: Talent

Crazy how small 0.7 seconds are.

Just curious, why did you blur the video on the back straight? Did some Alonso groupies flash their boobs there or something? 😂 Great video as always mate, keep it up!

Alonso aracın ön tarafının yol tutuşunu kaybetmeden dönüyor virajları ama stoll kaybediyor yol tutuşu. Özellikle ilk sektör, birbirini takip eden virajlarda çok belli. Alonso beklemiyor dönmek için. Fren noktasında o kadar güzel konumlandırıyor ki aracı virajı gaz vererek dönüyor. Bu yeni kurallar gereği zaten böyle kullanmak lazım. Adam işi çok iyi biliyor.

I’m racing go-karts myself sometimes, and the track’s record holder is much quicker than me, I wish I could the telemetry data comparison to see where he’s gaining on me 😅 To me it seems impossible to go any quicker.

İncredible content!!

Don´t even need to see the video to answer that question... Paying driver, thats the answer. As long as F1 owners allow this to happen there will always be someone to take a seat for a potencial F1 driver.

What I see here is that stroll is throwing the car around vs alonso is directing it, alonso is just smooth in all his inputs vs stroll who’s just going for it, throwing the car around

because he was just strolling along

Only I am seeing, that stroll sometimes have brake and throttle applied on the same time?

the fact that he didnt even care after this race and basically said "tough day.. meh" says it all. even if he could be fast, he doesnt care enough to be.

Song? Its fire!

you can see stroll losing speed in the straights, it was a setup issue. He had a better exit into the straight at the start of the vid than fernando did and still came out of the straight behind him

Man stroll is sawing at that wheel the whole time. Alonso is so much more stable

1:43 was this a micro lockup or brake smoke from overheating?

Just watching the laps like this it's crazy to see how much more unstable Lance's car looks despite the higher downforce setup Also hey, Lance did have less straight line speed than Alonso, that's one of my questions answered

because alonso is new lawrence stroll son

1:02. Stroll braked just starting the long curve, which killed his speed by 10 km/h and 0.2 seconds

I thought in this regulation you can get away with less downforce wings as more downforce are generated by the floor

Alonso has top talent and keeps making efforts.

Because one has a very uncommon gift and the other is the son of the owner.

It was actually surprising to me just how close they were in the middle sector all the way through. Even that hairpin lockup didn't hurt Stroll that badly compared to Alonso according to this comparison. He just lost so much in the first sector and SO much in the final chicane.

That's the difference between a champion and daddy's son.

I think the main reason is that Alonso has done more miles in an F1 car than most people have in their road cars. And Stroll has a rich daddy.

Damn there is a big difference between high And low downforce setup... Why did stroll choose the high downforce setup with big straights like this?

stroll is not so bad driver . alonso is just great . if you have ever played racing sim, only 0.8 second slower than top of the world is not bad time

Backgroubd music at the start?

This Anolso rookie looks definitely like the better driver here, lots of experience given his age, this guy will definitely have an eventful career ahead of him, maybe even a couple of championships under his belt one day 😂😂😂

Stroll has a solid racing career ahead of him - just not in F1. He's obviously very competent, rarely ends up in tangles during the race and is generally quite reliable, but he's just missing that final 1% of pace and edge. He'll be great in WEC or something similar.

Comparison between kite with fighter jet would be more closer than this

Because Suzuka is a "driver track", where a good driver can make a bigger difference.

Stroll shouldn't be driving at Aston Martin period! This is the pinnacle of motorsport, not the pinnacle of 'not that bad', Stroll is already flattered by how stable the cars are now, imagine how far away he would be from Fernando in a 2001 Minardi.

They have different colored buttons on their steering wheel

Short answer - Alonso is a different caliber of driver.

Stroll has always had a very nervousness steering wheel. He has to keep it much steadier

Can you compare this year's Aston with last year's?

Stroll probably thought that he can have almost similar performance like went was with Vettel

I don't think he had that high down force setup. He was indeed second in race in terms of max speed with 333km/h. He shouldn't blame the car that much. Alonso is doing miracles with it but that doesn't mean the other one isn't lacking performance....

Skills

Alonso is a legend... stroll, nosomuch

Simple answer is that Alonso has talent, while Stroll only has money. Money can get you a seat you don’t deserve, AND keep you there, but that’s it.

How does alonsos car sound much better? Is it exhaust mic?

良い動画です！

Alonso looks so much smoother on the steering wheel.

It is clear that Stroll systematically carries too much speed in the corners has to break harder and partialise the throttle at the exit, loosing time. lockups the front left at the entry of the spoon for that

Alonso is a Suzuki master. There's no shame losing the head to head. However, no excuse to be out in q1

Maybe it's because he is not really the best choice, but daddy owns the team

Actually, the significant gap was due to Stroll's higher downforce+lower talent setup ✌️

Because he is a tennis player

running a high down force in Suzuka is a dangerous game when you didn't have a natural talent navigating high-speed corner with a little lift and gas like Charles lecrerc

Didn't realize how fast a driver Stroll is not just through daddy
