10 things that didn't live up to the hype in F1

Спорт

Hype is hard to avoid in Formula 1. There’s always someone or something being tipped to make a big impact and achieve great things, and as we all know, success in F1 is never that simple.
We’ve picked out 10 things in F1 that fell victim to being overhyped, and tried our best to explain why they didn’t deliver.
Of course, there are far more than 10 things we could have included here, so make sure you let us know in the comments what would be on your list.

If he had a better mindset and worked harder on applying himself to F1, it probably would've gotten closer to winning, and if his 2003 car was better and his 2005 car didn't keep trying to blow up, I'm certain he would've won (2003 more so, 2000's Kimi was very very fast)

For example, the team was forced the corporate board in Aichi, Japan to switch from Michelin rubber to Bridgestone because Toyota brass wanted to partner with the Japanese company over the French one. This is was despite the fact that the car was designed around using the Michelin tire compounds than Bridgestone ones and the team in Germany strongly being against the change to the harder Bridgestone tires.

Who knows, maybe AM would make a radical concept in their next big upgrade or next year that would make them a front runner. Either way, it’s too early to decide after only 2 races.

    I was ecstatic when BAR tried to run two different liveries. I am of the opinion that F1 cars should be identifiable at a quick glance; we shouldn't have to squint to see tiny numbers or try to make out what helmet it is (especially since they've grown less graphic and more detailed). We shouldn't have to try and guess which Alpha Tauri has gone off track, or if it's Leclerc or Sainz who managed to overtake... which Red Bull? It needn't be as different as BAR - a different rear wing and airbox would do the trick, or an additional stripe, or huge, visible numbers.

    Schumacher did have some really bad reliability in fairness. The wheel not being put on correctly in China 2012 (?) cost Merc a 1-2. Plus he had moments in quali where he outperformed the car something fierce. But yeah. He was well past his prime. But everything considered he still wasn't as bad as some make out. Especially given that Rosberg and Lewis weren't as far apart as people thought they were. Between 2010-2012 we had no idea where Rosberg was.

    Degrading tyres didn't live up to the hype? The 2011 - 2013 seasons were some of the most entertaining F1 seasons of recent years with a massive upsurge in overtaking*. The tyres were now a relevant part of strategy since drivers who pushed the tyres too hard had to pit more often. *yes I know DRS played its part but the overtaking dropped in 2014 and 2015 when they made the tyres more durable.

    I’d also nominate Damon Hill at Jordan as not living up to the hype. The 1996 world champion joined Jordan for 1998 and despite a poor start for Jordan in 1998, the appointment of Mike Gascoygne as technical director seemed to turn things around with Jordan moving from bottom of the championship to 4th plus a 1-2 finish in Belgium, so there was a lot of hype around the Jordan 199 the following season with Damon being joined by Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Damon being seen as a possible championship contender. However, the season never got going for Damon. He never got on with the new and harder Bridgestone 4 grooved tyres and while Frentzen did win races and was a realistic contender for the title until his retirement at the Nurburgring finishing the season with 54 pts, good enough for 3rd in the championship, Damon could only muster 7 points and a 12th place finish in the championship (the same points and position he achieved with Arrows in 1997), scoring points on just 4 occasions, failing to finish 9 of the 16 races including voluntarily retiring the car at his final Grand Prix in Japan.

The dull period of a race where cars are waddling around on high fuel protecting their tyres has never been a highlight, yet when everything speeds up for the last 20 laps we actually see a race. Look at Albon last weekend on the hards. He was going faster each lap as the fuel burned off. It sounds like he enjoyed it, and I can say it was a great strategy to watch. Hopefully we see more teams make use of this durable option.

    I still have a feeling that Renault just stopped developing the R31 car because of the sudden absence of Robert Kubica, who was scheduled to drive this car in 2011, but couldn't due to his rally accident in pre-season. So it might also be a third factor. So far we've seen two good results of the car that was basically built with intention to let Kubica drive it and who knows, maybe if he had some better results if not the accident, then maybe the Renault team would develop the car further more during the season? Just speculating, you know.

I'd change 'BAR' to 'Jacques Villeneuve at BAR', because after he departed they showed that the team had potential, finishing 2nd in the WCC in 2004 (once Honda started to get more involved). Classic case of oversell and underachieve, starting with claiming they'd win the championship in '99 (with an underpowered engine 🤣🤣).

Wish the FIA got rid of the Pirelli monopoly and stopped controlling tyres options so closely. They should focus their regulations to safety purposes only, and let the teams instead pick their tyres and strategies freely. Wish they at least got rid of the rule forcing teams to use 2 different types of compounds in a dry race, that just introduces artificial element to the strategy and makes it about the rules rather than the racing.

    Jean Alesi and Gerhard Berger, Benetton 1996. When Michael Schumacher joined Ferrari in 1996, Jean Alesi and Gerhard Berger moved the opposite way to Benetton, who with Schumacher had just recorded their first championship double the previous year (winning 11 out of the 17 races in 1995). Along with how Schumacher would do at Ferrari, there was huge interest in how Alesi and Berger, both still highly rated at the time, would perform with the reigning Constructors Champions. However, the combination didn't work and the car concept that Schumacher had worked to 9 wins the previous year didn't suit the driving styles of either of them. The result was a huge step down with the team scoring 0 wins for the first time since 1988, and worse, although more reliable than Schumacher's Ferrari, the team lost second in the championship to Ferrari and were over 100 points behind Williams. As a matter of fact, for the rest of their time in F1, Benetton would only record 3 pole positions and 1 win (Berger took pole and the win at Hockenheim in 1997, Alesi took pole at Monza in 1997 and Fisichella claimed a fortunate pole in Austria 1998, by being the last driver to set a lap time as the weather conditions, wet at first, improved and he was last to complete his fastest lap)
