Case in point, I’m one of those who Cameron speaks about. I’ve followed F1 religiously since the age of five, I’m now 62, and I stopped watching F1 about six years ago and long before that I caught myself falling asleep more often than not watching F1. These days, I’m perfectly fine listening to Peter or some podcast summing up the races. And God knows I’ve been as much a fan one could be, to the point that I ran a podcast, had Sweden’s largest website on F1 and racing in general and been working in the motorsport business for the last twenty years. I may not fall under the category of the Drive to Survive crowd but rather the “had enough of waiting for a great season, you won’t fool me again”-crowd. F1 today may very well be the consequence of what once made it great and it’s very hard to see how to change the evolution of the sport. It may have to die to resurrect itself. Organic change is often better than artificially induced changes that will only fool the crowd for so long.

Wow, I just recently watched the 1980s entire decade of racing. Most races finished with 1st place being 40+ seconds ahead of second. All of the action happening in the midfield. Reliability being the main factor in overtakes. Someone is missing a gear, and gets overtaken while accelerating. From what I can see, the 80s were great, the 90s were great, the 2000s were great and it’s always been great. But never had the competition been closer than today. The difference between pole and last being a couple of seconds. That’s unheard of in yesteryear’s formula 1. Cheers!

Agreed - thank you !! I have been saying for years that Max Mosely went (a bit) too far when he pushed through the refueling ban - in the name of cost savings. The end result was that it MASSIVELY watered down the racing. F1 hasn't been the same since low-fuel qualifying was dropped. All of the new "Drive to Survive" fanbase has no idea how exciting qualifying used to be when there were no fuel restrictions. Also, the main reason that Michelin won't come back into the sport is because they are not interested in designing tires to degrade.

You hit the nail on the head with how most fans are going to want to consume F1 now. I listened to this whole video, not a car in sight and enjoyed it more than all the F1 coverage I saw at the weekend.

It has gained them a massive advantage which they will maintain through until the next rules come in. How this sport cannot see that the team that is so far out in front is only there because they did not play by the same rules as everyone else? Liberty is using the sport to drive numbers among the masses. F1 may take some time to die completely - but it will die. Eventually the masses will bore of the whole facade.

In Melbourne, Russell's incompetence caused a major crash as he ignored Alonzo's different line of approach & then barrelling 'full tilt' into the track's most dangerous turn, losing control in a way that could have become a deadly mistake if Stroll hit him. In both cases, the F1 & FIA decided to ignore Russell's driving incompetence and did not punish him for his incompetence 'on track'.

Charles beat Carlos for 2 consecutive years (especially 2022 when Charles came 2nd in WDC) but now Carlos is on the podium, he’s Schumacher? Seriously? Carlos is getting a big head in interviews too! 🙄 Someone needs to remind him that 38 year old Lewis beat him in a tractor Mercedes last year. So did 42 year old Alonso in a slower Aston Martin! So the TWO OLDEST DRIVERS ON THE GRID in slower cars beat him! Alonso is TWELVE YEARS OLDER than Carlos and he beat him….in an Aston Martin! Let that sink in. Let me go further, 38 year old Lewis in the tractor Mercedes beat BOTH Ferrari drivers. No one is mentioning that! Carlos brain dead fans seem to have short term memory. It speaks volumes about a driver that he can only perform when his job is on the line. So if Lewis wasn’t coming to Ferrari in 2025, would Carlos be trying so hard? Or would it be mediocre driving like 2022 and 2023? No one is asking these questions….

It's not even a sport at this point. If there's no competition, it's not a sport. Ross Brawn said if one team dominated they would make changes to the rules, unfortunately he quit, just like all the viewers are doing, F1 will continue to bleed viewers until the race isn't 100% predictable.

I saw a comment on KZread that Mercedes problem might be with the CEO, Ola Kallenius, he isn't fully interested in F1. He knows F1 is profitable and can't end the F1 team because Mercedes, Toto and Ineos has shares in it. Kallenius also thought Toto had to much power in F1 and Toto and himself don't get on. With Kallenius not being fully supportive of the F1 team, it is making it harder for Toto to hire the right personnel. Looking at Ola online it seems like he wants to get into the EV side of motosport and there seems to have been rumours a few years back that Mercedes will stop being a fullworks team. So Mercedes have bigger problems than just rear end instability, they need a new CEO who is fully interested in F1. No team will be in form when the CEO of the parent company is not committed to F1. I would say Toto needs our support and understanding, not criticism. If 2021 never ended the way it did, Lewis probably would have stayed with Mercedes but he has an axe to grind.

Wow. So very well put, and so very true

Great Video, well done 👏

Since 2009, we have had only one single season (2021) where the constructor's championship went down to the wire. Before that it was kind of a on/off thing with the constructor title either clinched quite early or being decided at the final race with somewhat equal frequency. Now nowhere cares about the constructor's championship. But consider this: the only certain way to keep an F1 season exciting until the end or somewhere near the final race under the current regulations is if you have 2 world class drivers dueling each other in the best car. Mercedes last did that when they had Rosberg and Hamilton as team mates. Now the reason why there is this tendency for one team to dominate each year is in my opinion because there is virtually no testing allowed. Whatever is the gap at the first race of the year, this performance advantage/deficit is locked in not only for the duration of the season, but in reality year over year. Recall for example the 1998 season, when McLaren Mercedes with Hakkinen and Coulthard absolutely crushed the competition at the opening race. They were so much faster than everyone else that they lapped pretty much every other car. But! Ferrari had a car with potential. And with an insane amount of car development, essentially a second pair of drivers working 24/7 at Mugello and Fiorano, and of course with the FIA banning some of the features of that McLaren, Ferrari was able to close the gap by the end of the season, making for one hell of a fight between Hakkinen and Schumacher. Impossible today!

Cameron I totally agree with your description of Peters Genius! Peter I totally agree with your description of the mental difference between Carlos and Charles and so Eloquently described it!

I believe the best way to close up the grid is stable regs. Other teams are definitely catching Redbull they just won’t have enough time to do it in these regs. Possibly in 2025 someone could catch up. But when we switch regs the FIA should monitor if any teams get a massive head start, then only let those regs run for 4-5 years. But if we ever get a reg switch and say 2-4 teams are very close, then they should try to keep those regs stable for a longer period say maybe 7-8 years.

I feel Charles is getting in his own head a bit, and Carlos has nothing to lose, so he is letting it all hang out and living for the moment. When you are supposed to be the better driver and at the moment it doesn't look like that, you can overthink a bit.

As a ferrari fan i want carlos sainz to stay. He is entering into his peak performance era and ferrari decided to let him go.

For all the great tech that goes into the simulators etc, there is still no better place for a team to develop a car and a driver to develop their skill in driving it, than on a track. I understand the cost curbing argument but when a team is saddled with a poor car at the start of the season, all they can really do now is fiddle about a bit with it, rather than get some hard miles in testing and sort things out. I don't expect to go back to no test limits, but at least open it up so that a team has a chance to do some proper testing during the season.

@@dco1019 and even getting Lewis for marketing reasons isnt that big of a deal as people think. They are Ferarri, Lewis isnt even the first 7 time champ to drive for them.

I do that, skip the weekend and watch Peter.

if you want to see drivers that go flat out, and see pit stops, make it mandatory to run all 3 tyre compounds. and tyres that have longer life.

Best way to improve F1:- Ban DRS. push to pass is boring, drs passes are dull. Go back to proper passing and defending.

Exactly..

24:24 That exactly what I do actually.

Brilliant content. Enjoyed listening to Peter for years.

I soooo agree with Peter re the overdoing when the drivers are on different tyres (age and/or colour) - it's not real overtakes/passes. It brings a lot of joy to Matt & Tommy, but it's not real overtakes for me At least DRS is trying to offset the loss in aerodynamic performance due to being behind a car.

24:45 I’m already exactly there, for the races in certain time zones anyway

Wait. Fernando Alonso had an advantage because he returned to a potentially championship winning team as opposed to Lewis. Really?! Alpine better championship winning team over Ferrari even back then!!??

Carlos is the son of a racer, and Charles will not dominate Carlos come end of season Peter.

I agree. The technical insight that Carlos has is so important. That's why a Carlos / Max pairing would be so interesting because they are two of the most technical saffy drivers.

All it would take is one good race by stroll and tsunoda, and they would push hamilton out of the top 10 in season points bcoz they are seperated by 2 points.

Peter's great, but you do a great job of adding your own insight while also asking great questions. This is the second video I've watched since KZread decided to offer them up to my feed and I clearly need to subscribe. Better than 95% of the KZread F1 stuff that's out there. Thanks, and keep up the good work! Oh, and I'll have to subscribe to his channel as well!

Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏾

Cameron, this is the first video I see of you. What a delight. Such a pleasant voice and very easy to follow as a non-native speaker. Great stuff, sir! ❤

I enjoy your commentary Peter. Also, I enjoy the tone of your voice. It allows me to watch your entire show.

He's Neo in the F1 matrix is Peter.

John Elkann was apparently the one who wanted Hamilton, not necessarily the race team. I dare say that if left to the race team and Fred, they would have waited to see how the season played out and probably kept their partnership the same for the next season or two. If I was Elkann, I think I'd be concerned at seeing a 7 time WC displaying such poor motivation and leadership in a time of adversity when for the money he is paid, he should be standing up tall and driving the situation to keep moral high.

Add use any tire any time on any corner and refueling. We need as many variables and strategies as possible. I recall Prost saying he once used 3 different compounds on the 4 corners at the same time.

I LOVE the sad violin music in the beginning while they're talking about Merc. It set the mood.

A bit melodramatic

Love this discussion; calm, rational critical thinking, giving me insights, confirming other ideas. And both Peter and Cameron have great voices, especially Cameron - close mike technique. I'm subscribing.

Has anyone undertaken an overtake on a leading Red Bull car successfully in the last few years? NO. That says it all about the state of F1 today. Mercedes is going to be the new Williams the way things are going there. Either the powers that be do something to make F1 a competition instead of a procession or the sport is doomed.

The biggest thing influencing the perceived enjoyment which most don't mention or even notice is the shear number of races. We have come at a point where just about every week we have a race. When we have races in abundance It starts to loose it's magic. Also the quality of the commentators is very low, they just respond to what is already shown on the screen when I can see driver A slowly gains time on driver B. I'd like a more cycling style of information through the commentators, they way they monitor the time differences and build a narrative around it.

I watch road cycling as well as F1 and we have a few dominant riders as well. One of them - Mathieu van der Poel - won a couple recent one-day spring "classics" with epic solo victories. The camera was on him much of the time. Riders in groups behind him were denied on-air coverage, but the audience didn't complain, because they knew they were watching a performance for the ages. That's the difference. There is something missing in Max winning every time, and the camera knows it as the audience knows it. Content for the geeks - those of us who'd love to see the behind the scenes circus mechanics of F1 - won't create a bigger audience. It's in the nature of car racing that dominance by a single team and driver undermines the appeal of the entire format. Unfortunately. Wish it were different.

Very astute Cameron,that is pretty much what I do.I only generally watch race highlights and then listen to the race opinions of podcasters such as yourself and Peter st al. Keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍

What we’re learning is that without the perfect car, Lewis is a mid pack driver.

Was always aware of F1 but my geographic location made it somewhat inaccessible. With the Netflix series it renewed an interest, and not just the drivers. I enjoy the technical aspects, and the team rivalry. So far I haven't even watched a full race, but I follow it closely as I can. Next race I have plans to watch with a friend who has an F1TV account.

About Peter commenting F1. There are dull races when nothing happens. That is, until you listen to Peter, then you realise that it actually was a ver interesting race!

Deep insight to be had

F1 is always about innovation and because of that you'll see dominance.... Unless you do away with that and start spec cars where every cars are equal. Until then, the dominance will continue... I'm ok with it, there's still strong fight at the midfields.... Peter is a truer F1 fan, never once I hear him complain about F1 being boring....
