- čas přidán 7. 04. 2024
- I'm diving deep into the unprecedented dominance of Red Bull Racing in Formula 1, a level of control never seen before in the sport. This video unpacks the ingenious strategies and technological breakthroughs that have catapulted Red Bull into an untouchable position.
But what's the real cost of their unmatched success? I'm exploring the negative impacts of their reign, highlighting how it's sapping the excitement and fairness from the races. Is this unparalleled success of Red Bull a warning sign for the sport we hold dear?
Join me as I investigate the effects on the teams, the fans, and the future of racing, providing an up-close look at the consequences of one team's dominance over all others.

Hope you enjoyed the video guys!
Tried something new by using chapters, would love to hear your thoughts, better with or without?
Great video😀
Could be my client issue, but the chapter's aren;t showing up. Tho it would be nice with them.
Ah no those are indeed turned off, was referring to the general structure of the video, what did you think?
Actually, it's opinionated video and not facts
@@DailyFuelUp Oh I see, apart from that, great vid, pretty good style of editing and good choice of footage too.
Teams win, some lose, some dominate. It's nothing new for 1 single team to dominate. It's always fun to watch other teams fight too, sometimes, 1st place isn't the thing that keeps people hooked for F1.
I am trying to adopt this outlook, but it is tough. Trying to view it through the engineering perspective has helped me but it takes away from the driver legacy when I do that. No doubt that Max and Lewis and really everyone on the grid are amazing drivers, just brings them down to Earth a little for me. But who cares, I'll still tune in lol.
When we're hit periods of single team domination in F1 I choose not to blame the team that got it right, but rather to blame the teams that got it wrong.
@@Warhaawk Really good point, this can go even for drivers, like Lance Stroll.
@@averagejomo5373 Oh yeah, for sure. If you want a little side battle info in F1 rn, Keep a eye at Ferrari, Williams and McLaren, love those guys.
@@Warhaawk THANK YOU!!! underrated comment
My point of view is that the regulations are killing formula 1 because it's so strict you can't really come up with a different concept if you're struggling. You kinda just have to wait out that period and hope enough has changed
There were plenty of viable concepts. Ferrari was winning/went toe to toe with RB at all but 2 races in 2022..... Until Merc got the rules changed, and it ruined everyones concept except RBs and put everyone months behind because they had to change their entire concept
They thought strict regulations would keep the teams more leveled up, but its instead caused Red Bull to get massive lead and, because strict regulations. The other teams, like Ferrari, Mercedes, Mclaren and Aston Martin have hard time to catch up to Red Bull.
During Mercedes Era they used to change the rules to slow down Mercedes. they should try that
@@andyjk5974 They didnt change the rules to slow down Mercedes.
They had generaition changes (as we will be having in 2 years)
Infact, the rules were more stacked agaisnt the other teams with the engine token system, so from 2014-2018 merc had a 100+hp advantage that no one could do anything about
@@andyjk5974what did they change to slow them down between 2014 and 2020??? Than you can say the fia slowed Redbull down in the Vettel era by constantly changing the rules to prevent the blowing diffuser
Merc and a British guy dominate: silence
Red bull dominates: Constant bitching
British bias in the media which has the largest global coverage tends to influences the not so educated and the fan boys.
Happens outside of F1 also. It's unfortunate but it's reality. The narrative gets fed, most can't/won't question it or scrutinize it.
@@u2jewel Mercedes never dominated like this. You have to be incredibly thick to look at Verstappen winning almost every race by 10+ seconds and choke out "b... b... b... Mercedes". This level of dominance is unprecedented.
@@samtorr3947 From 2014 to 2021: Mercedes 111 wins (69.38%). 7 Drivers Championships and 8 Constructor championships. Yeah, Mercedes never dominated like this.
@@samtorr3947 Mercedes absolutely dominated like this. In fact, their cars were even faster compared to the rest of the grid. The only difference is their incompetence from time to time. You rarely see Red Bull with mechanical issues, bad strategies, driver mistakes (at least from Verstappen) or botched pit stops. The same can't be said about Mercedes during their era.
@@user-ri9dn4vi6i merc drivers were the weakest part of the team from 2014 to 2021.
Tell me you started watching F1 five years ago, without telling me you started watching F1 five years ago
I first attended an F1 event in 1973 and this is the era with the most extreme level of domination
Yeah, exactly that
lol my exact thoughts. It may be dominant, but everyone is on the same playing field I.e cost cap etc. Ferrari, Merc had 100s of millions blowing on their cars to build dominant machines prior. Here we are with complainers of an f1 team that cracked the code.
This is coming from a massive Ferrari fan, and the era of MSC was pretty dam dominant / Lewis as well.
As Christian said, “You've got a problem. Change your fxxxkin car.” 😊
@@Gonco243 As Christian said, “You've got a problem. Change your fxxxkin car.”..........but the rules on budgets and testing make that a very limited possibility.
@@NonFlyiingDutchmanexactly, so why should a team that pre prepared and had the right things in order, suffer or be talked bad about because they managed it well? Merc dropped the ball, as did everyone else. Now they’re paying the price !
People just find stuff to complain about, not surprising with all these new DTS fans or lewis fans, max fans etc.
It is boring at times, but the guys behind are proving to build better cars to catch up, it will happen eventually.
Yah right, Red bull winning 3 years is killing F1... but the 8 years of Mercedes did nothing? Common. Lewis simp detected
I know right and I'm a Red Bull Ferrari McLaren and Mercedes Benz fan and I think he's wrong though I might where was this when Mercedes Benz was dominated with Lewis Hamilton 😊.
True. Max' exceptional skills are mostly ignored in this video. The main narrative seems to be FIA regulations and engineering.
Red Bull is really good but then again, is it their fault that it makes the sport boring? You could just as easily approach it from the other side and say that the rest of the field needs to step up their game to make it more difficult for Red Bull to win a race. If Red Bull can hire a rocket scientist to design their car, so can Ferrari and Mercedes.
And while Hamilton wasn't as dominant as Verstappen in a single season, he still has like 40 more race wins than Max. If Max wants to become first in race wins, he still needs to win almost every race this season and over half next season. So about 5 seasons. And that is also partly because there are more races per season as there were in the time Hamilton won everything. In fact, if you look at their respective win rates they are about the same.
Well said
did mercedes kill F1 too from 2014-2020?
Did for me.
I hope Alonso gets to Red Bull in 2025, so F1 comes back to alive. Mercedes had been killing F1 for longer, than Red Bull, so why everybody hate Red Bull so much now?
Notice how he mentioned RB dominated for 4 years then skipped 7 years and talk about this new dominance by Redbull again? Yeah, they don't like talking about that 7 years because that will weaken their hate towards Redbull now🤣
Are you fking r-t@rded?? Dominance and title fights are two different things, yes 2014-2016 was 3 merc 1-2s but they were fun to watch because it was close and intense, 2014 was decided at Yas marina(final race), 2015 was decided at COTA(Final race), 2016 was decided at Yas marina(final race). 2017 and 2018 are literally known as Silver vs Red, sebastian gave lewis and merc a run for their money in these 2 seasons. The 2 seasons of actual "dominance" were 2019 and 2020. And if you're saying 2014-2016 was merc 1-2, atleast the two teammates were competing and merc didnt have an incompetent 2nd driver who's only job is to make verstappen win and get 2nd place in the championship without competition. Nico gave competition, perez doesnt. Thats the difference
@@Jout8-re1ijZero competition, people would be less bitter if Perez actually had talent.
Lewis and Rosberg had drama, then 17-18s title fight.
Ironically F1 grew alot more while merc was top.
Mercedes killed it.. but no one complained when Hamilton and Mercedes killed the previous era of f1
I highly doubt these brit yt channels complained and did videos like these..
I never liked red bull, but dominance is part of f1, unfortunately.
@@MooncricketsInc Hamiltons period of dominance has always been frowned upon upon, however there were other teams also winning and there was actually a battle between teammates. However Max’s time is being force upon our throats and media is constantly pushing how we should appreciate it, when the same was never done for Merc. Hamilton was very vocal on how dominance is not always good for the sport, whereas we now have Max that “enjoys driving in the front” alone because he’s scared of competition
@bobucdude
Ah yes, bottas sure was battling hamilton for those 'titles'. Rosberg gave him a run for his money, but he quit way too early.
Ferrari winning a few races a year didn't change anything about the mercs dominating.
The brit media sure didn't mind it and was on their knees.
Keep being in denial about their even longer dominating and boring period.
@@MooncricketsInctf are you yapping, the championship in 17-18 lasted over half the season.
17, Ferrari challenged merc until they self sabotaged after Singapore.
18, By Belgium both Seb and Lewis had the same wins, Ferrari were just out-developed.
Imagine another constructor winning more than 5 races in a season, Max's era could never.
Lewis basically had free real estate in 15,19-20.
@JuicedOnKids
Wow, an impressive half a season/ two-thirds of a season was fought between two teams instead of one.
I'm sure them winning 5-6 races instead of one or two these days made the merc dominance so much better.
Keep trying.
where was this energy during the 8 years merc won consecutively?
It was definitely there LOL. Sorry you pay selective attention.
Nobody said a word watching Merc dominate for NEARLY A DECADE. Its about time they continued to say nothing about Red Bull. Build a better car or lose, that has always been the game. All these Netflix fans don't understand decades of history before Lewis was king.
It may be the game for the other teams, but if F1 wants to keep its fans we need competition. Even a fast driver at Red Bull to challenge Max would be enough to try and bring F1 back. Thats what happened with Merc. Competition is what a championship is about and its what creates the majority of the fans.
Yes for 7 years we suffered with Merc as the goat Not lewis ..ask Nico!!
Merc was never 20 seconds ahead of the second car in the line. Red bull is just way too fast, and its making people lose interest in f1. It's always a red bull 1-2
@@keshav6377 Yes they were.
After half of the 2022 f******seasons this p**** c***Max is winning all the races it sure boring but when Lewis was winning other drivers also won during his dominance but in this max’s dominance only sainz won the 2 race there’s a lot of differences between there domination
Lol, in 2021, the reason RB was able to catch up was because Redbull finally had an engine close to the Merc engine. Both the low and high rake cars got pinned with the new regs. All missinformation
the 2021 regs? it didn't affect high rake cars. why do you think racing point spent like half the year complaining
Wrong, the cut of the floor in the rear (like half triangle) was to favour RedBull and high rake cars, which were all except Mercedes
It’s actually these kind of videos that is ruining F1! Supposed fans continually complaining about anything and everything
Abso fukkin lutely !
Roses are red. Red Bull is ahead by far. If you have a problem, change yo fukkin car! - Christian Horner
Homie domination is just part of the sport, the best driver combined with the best car will dominate thats how it works, your just crying because red bull got it right and everyone else got it wrong.

@@NJD47 Think of the intense rivalry between Nico and Hamilton though, I would be fine with RB dominance if say someone like Alonso was in the second seat, that would be box office
Typical Hamilton bum licker video.
How BS this video title was😂
Gotta get those clicks lol
You didn't make a similar vid about Merc's dominance, did you? I wonder why... 🤔
Because that isn't relevant anymore so it wouldn't get as many views
@@LorenzovdAnd because the channel was made in 22.
People really be here protecting Max with braindead whataboutism.
"bRiTiSh BiAs" on channels that are younger than sorokins career.
I love the part at 3:10 where it shows all the years Mercedes won, then quickly ignores that and moves on.
I aint hear this shi during merc domination
Because you were not paying attention.
Are you serious you know how much hate Lewis got for it and is still getting to this very day for having the car and the trolls worldwide now that he doesn't have the car. If Max even gets 1 percent of that hate I'd be like wow they are objective because y'all celebrate Max doing the same things Lewis got hate for and that facts.
@@DRA25dra The hate Lewis got was mostly for his effort to use F1 for his personal beliefs.
@@DRA25dra
I dont think Lewis got that much more hate from who. Lewis got preatty much equal amount of hate as Max gets currently from new F1 fans. The thing about Hamilton is, that he used to start races from pole and finish on pole with zero overtakes done winning with his boring grey car, while Verstappen tends to make many overtakes in his race victories, while he has dominant car, so Verstappen is not as boring as Hamilton dominance was for me. Still we see some overtaking and battling happening in other part of the race, than in the first place.
Merc never won all but 1 race during a season. At least they could still be beaten. Nobody can get near Red Bull at the moment. There have been periods of domination in the past. Schumacher with Ferrari, Red Bull with Vettel and obviously Mercedes lately. But it's taking the piss the last few years. Not fun to watch at all
How to tell the world you're new to F1...
lol right
I'm new to F1(DTS)...there isn't a driver out there that I don't pull for. I like them all...If RedBull puts out the best cars and drivers every race so be it, they play by the same rules of physics as everybody else. Everybody else needs to figure it out!
Well said
The video makes perfect sense and I agree with your opinion-competition is what makes racing fans. Great video. However, the title is a bit questionable given the fact that red bull aren't to blame for 'killing Formula 1', they are getting it all right quicker than others. I am a proud Mercedes fan, but I believe this is the truth. Competition is all we need to bring this sport back to the headlines.
From one F1 fan to the other, I'm really sorry that the team is going through such a tough path right now, the best we can do as just viewers is to wait and hope Mercedes stands back up and bring the wheel-to-wheel action again to have thrilling races!
It’s not Red Bull ruining the sport, it’s the rest of the fields incompetence
Its F1 stupid regulations somewhat ruinning the sport, when the thought with strict regulations all the cars would stay leveled in the playing field, but it instead has caused, tha no other team can catch up Adrain Neweys designed car, because thoese strict regulations dont allow intresting innovation, that could help Ferrari, Mercedes, Mclaren and Aston Martin catch up to Red Bull.
@@Jout8-re1ij RB live under the same rules so it is nonsens what you say.
The rules only need to change less so teams can catch up.
2022: “the new regulations reduce dirty air to make it easier for cars to follow each other”
2024: alonso braking too much caused Russell to crash because of the dirty air and alonso gets a 20 second penalty
Absolute rubbish
it did worked until Mercedes cried to get the ride height increase because they cant figure out their car's problem
It wasn't just the dirty air. Have you not seen people overtaking in the S's in Suzuka?
@@kyrlchristianboni5263Exactly.
Mercedes once again had rules changed because they didn't like how they used to be. And yet people complain about RB while noone ever said a word about Mercedes. Like when Mercedes had exclusive tire testing deals with Pirelli and suddenly didn't have any graining anymore which used to be a problem before...
Ah yes, the typical "Domination is killing F1" shouting. I remember when I thought that too in the early 2000's. Welcome to F1, you'll get used to it.
Usain Bolt always winning, Kahn won 555 consecutive squash games, Al-Hilal football club won 29 games one after the other, Antoni Bou having won 34 consecutive FIM Trial World Championship, Oakland A's with 20 straight, Julio Cesar Chavez winning 87 fights in a row, Martina Navratilova with 74 matches, UCLA Ruins with 88 straight, Pittsburgh Penguins with 17 straight, New England Patriots... 21 straight, LA Lakers with 33 straight. Hamilton and Merc on a roll, Schumacher keep winning.... So everyone asking Max and Red Bull to stop winning... Go cry a river in the desert where it's truly needed.
Hear hear
when red bull is winning, it's killing the sport... but when mercedes is dominating, good for the sport... what a heck is that... in each era of technical changes... only few will able to crack how to win it... lets see if they still able to win in the next tech generation changes..
I feel like a lot of the whinging about Red Bull and Max is predominantly coming from Brits who are still salty about Abu Dhabi '21. And since a lot of the international F1 discussion takes place on platforms run by the British, the first thing new fans see when trying to get into the sport is people complaining about Red Bull, Max, and domination, and that just turns people off from the sport.
Don’t hate the player. Hate the game buddy.
But when Lewis and Merc were winning everything y'all complained about it why is that? But now you're celebrating it why is that?
@@DRA25dra Verstappen is being celebrated? Are you a fucking spastic or what? Verstappen is one of the most hated drivers on the grid right now. Hamilton never ever in his career had anything similar happen to him. Some racist assholes but compared to max he never experienced anything like this. I don’t even know what point you are trying to make tho. In your little stupid brain you think it’s fine to hate max because Lewis was hated as well? Genuine question. Because if not we have nothing to talk about here and if yes then fuck off you are just like those assholes that hated Lewis for winning.
@@DRA25dra Max is being celebrated? Are you a spastic or what? Lewis never got anything close to what Max is getting now. Max is being booed constantly by fans so F off. You’re hating on him but cry whenever someone says something bad about Hamilton. I never mentioned Hamilton in my original comment but you immediately thought I must hate him because I don’t hate Verstappen and have respect for his accomplishments. I hate to break it to you but Hamilton is one of the most loved and respected driver on the grid and Max is the polar opposite. If you genuinely think it’s justified to hate Max and redbull because they are winning you are actually a brain dead idiot. Same with Hamilton obviously.
bro dominance is a key aspect of f1, it's not "killing" the sport, videos like this are.
Btw you forgot that 2023 also saw the amazing 1988 McLaren 93.8% win record crushed. Many thought that would never be broken but Red Bull did it.
F1 isn’t boring, it’s not always about the winner
It is
@HadiMusto What part? The "F1 is boring" one or the "it's always about the winner" one?
@@globofoxfan2cs124 It's all about the winner
exactly like the midfield is such an interesting place especially atm
@@evieb4790 Problem is that the midfield (so far) isn't as exciting as it used to be. Ferrari is easily P2, McLaren P3, Alonso P4 and Mercedes P5 in the Constructor's Championship with likely no changes. Compare this to 2020 for example where we had an Alpha Tauri and a Racing Point win races plus we had podiums from McLaren, Renault, Alpha Tauri, Racing Point and Ferrari (Ferrari were basically midfielders that season with only Mercedes and Red Bull being the front runners). Last year we had Aston Martin (well, Alonso to be more precise) fighting with Ferrari before it turned into a resurging McLaren fighting with Ferrari for best of the rest. Now it seems like Ferrari just has a bigger advantage over McLaren who have a bigger advantage over Alonso who has a bigger advantage over Mercedes.
I think it’s not RedBull’s fault, it’s dominance what has ruined it, nobody ever said a word on the past ones, so it’s unfair for people to begin complaining when Max dominance is happening but not with the past ones
Yes it looks like new F1 fans for me who only started watching F1 from 2021 onwards.😂🤦♂️ I myself disliked Hamiltons dominance for so many years with Hamilton starting from pole and finishing on pole with zero overtakes done through the whole race. Atleast Max tends to overtakes somewhat in his race victories, while he has the most dominant car in the starting grid.

Watching the race in the rear is totally normal, when Mercedes dominated (that was far harder and longer than each Red Bull dominance!) I looked for the third and the other positions for points. As I do now. Go, Nando!
Red Bull isn't killing F1, other teams just need to work harder
Mercedes dominated F1 from 2014 to 2021 - 7 years. F1 survived.
Sure, a couple years people deluded themselves into thinking Ferrari had a chance, you can see that happening this year as well.
It is the nature of this sport. People who want a spec series with constant passing and so on have plenty of options for that, this is about what team can make the best car and that is how it should stay, because that is what makes it different than other racing leagues.
I think the best we can hope for is Sainz gets the other seat at Red Bull and we have a Blue War next year. I think everyone would enjoy that.
*clicks video for curiosity*
*hears Brit*
oh here we go
They never complained when Lewis was winning 😂
@@ninab.4540
They never will...
Pretty sure it's an AI voice...
This feels like a very Netflix era take. The sport has been dominated by Red Bull & Mercedes for close to two decades. They have both equally made the sport boring, bar the one or two transition seasons. Vettel into Hamilton into Verstappen. That's pretty much been in for 15yrs (bar one year of Nico). Since the turn of the century there has only ever been the few years after Schumacher where the year to year champion was open. For the most part the sport has been overly dominated by one driver for huge stretches. The idea to create the Netflix style drama each year has saved the sport.
i dont get it, how is it redbull/max fault for being dominant? the teams that are struggling should be questioned for not bringing the fight
Im happy to see red bull win, it's always may the best win
It’s happened for decades one team/driver dominated or wins a lot of races. If anything it’s the other teams not delivering a car that can be winning cars. All things considered redbull do have an utter genius in Adrian Newey which changes things. Drive to survive is a locust plague on the sport, making it a soap opera off the track instead off being all about racing.
As someone who just started getting interested in F1, this just seems as if Red Bull just cleaned up their act and it paid off. Better driver, better team, lots of races won. Hard work pays off.
Article written by depleted Marc fan?
F1 has always had “dominant” eras, Mercedes and Ferrari both had lengthy eras (Schumacher, Lewis etc).
It happens in other sports too don’t forgrt
I started watching every race in 2021 after having watched D2S. So I've only seen races since Max started dominating. Just know that it won't last forever. I look at these years as record breakers and not much more. There is still lots of good to take from this sport, so stick around!
Yes new F1 fans who started watching since 2021 think Max is boring, while Hamilton was more boring in his domination starting from pole and finishing in pole with zero overtakes done for so many race, while Verstappen tends to make multiple overtakes in his race wins. I think F1 might get more intresting next season, if Alonso joins Red Bull and in 2026 with new F1 regulations.
This is the attitude newer fans should have. As a fan since the 80s, this is not really that new or unusual of a period. Some fans seem to forget f1 has always been a constructor championship with a drivers championship. I remember the 6 wheel experiment, a fan on the back, building and engineering was the main part of the sport and that's always led to some get it right while others don't. Anyways glad you're a newer fan!
15:04 - As someone who did get into F1 near the end of 2022, I’m currently at this stage of my fandom that I’ve started following other feeder series (more specifically F2 and F1 Academy) almost as closely as I do F1. I’m going to the Miami Grand Prix (my first live race weekend!) in a few weeks, and I’m just as excited to watch the F1 Academy action as I am with F1.
Enjoy!! Its really impressive to see the speed of the cars in real life…it truly is. The atmosphere, the excitement, the roar of the engines… I’m going to Zandvoort again this year.
F2 and F3 is so much fun too 😂 so much chaos and great racing by these young guns lol My fav in F2 is Isack Hadjar and Richard Verschoor cos he is Dutch. In F3 I like Rookie Luke Browning… he is fast. Won Macau last season, a very unique F3 race…. You can rewatch it on Yt. Its a solo race. Richard Verschoor drove in it too, and some other current F2 drivers. And one of my favs Dan Ticktum as well, currently driving in FormulaE.
I like to watch the new talents as well. The future of F1, at least some.
People forget like how dominant mercedes were, when max won it in 2021, they still won the constructors, when mercedes were dominating, people did complain, but not to the scale of Red Bull recently, why? Idk, people are mostly worried about the revenue and numbers of watchers instead of the enjoyability, theres always gonna be a dominance era in f1, i will admit the redbull car is on crack though
When Rosberg was there he was taking wins off Lewis and even won a championship so the racing at the front wasn't just 1 driver. It was 2.
Even Bottas won a decent amount of races.
If Max had a decent teammate fighting for the title I reckon far less people would be complaining.
@@tomhammond3495 yep I couldn't agree with you more
@@tomhammond3495 Max is just very good. The skill difference is big thats all.
Stop trying to pretend bottas gave hamilton a run to the title. He got a win here and there.
Ferrari and vettel gave them a fight for a couple races, then choked big time.
Red bull is doing the same thing that merc did for an even longer time.
You win races by having a good team, managing your resources very well, investing money and time into the right places and focusing on improving the areas that your car (and/or team) are lacking.
This is what Ferrari has done really well in the early 2000s, Mercedes in the 2010s, and now Red Bull in the 2020s.
The only thing that the FIA can do is change the rules, but the sport has already thousands of them that I doubt anyone would like more of them.
smartest merc/hamilton fan
do a video on the last time 3-4 teams were in genuine contention of winning - races, driver's championships, constructor's championships
I’m sick of Red Bull dominance too, but it just shows that the other teams need to put more work in to catch them. Hopefully it won’t last for another 5 years
i am willing to wait for 4 more years so that Verstappen becomes a 8 WDC and then its ok
In case you didn't know, Red Bull Racing is based in Milton Keynes, England. Freffen sake Mercedes is based in the UK as are McLaren, Williams, and Aston Martin. Even Haas has a factory in England. But I haven't heard anyone complaining about the UK dominance of the sport.
It has always been like this, Mercedes won the constructors championship 8 times in a row and the drivers title 7 times in a row, Ferrari dominated with Schumacher, Mclaren dominated with Prost and Senna, Williams dominated a few years.
F1 has always been like that
Clearly a clickbait title...
F1 just needs to celebrate the greatness of the achievement and people will get excited. People love great achievements (number of games won in a row, record championships) and will watch if you sell it right.
Gentlemen a short view back to the past...
rather than thinking that Formula 1 is about drama and fighting to the last second. appreciate we are seeing man and machine drive to perfection, week in, week out. When was the last time we see Max lose the lead at the start of the grand prix? Red flag, standing start again? no problem for him. This is the best driving talent and best car designer working in tandem.
What's actually killing F1 is Liberty Media and the FiA and the ridiculous DEI policies they adopted to keep their ESG scores up for the racketeering cartel that enforces it. The sport is so corporate and PC now. Also there are too many silly rules and regulations that don't make the sport any better. Too many boring street circuits. The cars are too big, heavy, quiet, ugly and uninspiring. They are so refined, aero-dependent and computer-based, they are a bore to watch in comparison to the nimble, screaming V10s... and even the V8s. Even further than that, watch Senna's qualifying laps at Silverstone '91. It looks terrifying. You can clearly see he was on the very edge. The car was sparking and so alive. The older cars required more from the driver. They may be slower but they look faster than the modern cars. I can go onto other things but I'll conclude with this - F1 seems to be doing OK financially, but it could be so much better.
Exactly this. They need to bring v10 back at least. this sport is going in wrong way.
Reterded merc and lulu fans only started speaking after red bull domination huh.. Merc had 7 years with lewis still having 3000+ more laps led than any other drivers. Back then it was telling every other team to get better. now its red bull not the other teams
If F1 survived Mercedes and the hybrid era they will survive 2024 to…
actually it is precisely red bull heroic attempt to stop mercedes dominance in 2021 which triggered me to watch F1 ever since, and as red bull fan, max keep winning encourage me to watch even more every round
Mercedes, The Brackley-based team won eight consecutive constructors’ titles between 2014 and 2021 and nobody cryes aboout that every year :D
The main problem is it's a one driver dominance. Perez is simply nowhere near Max. During the Mercedes era, Rosberg was able to challenge Hamilton in 2014-16, in 2017-18 it was close between Hamilton and Vettel. Even in 2019, Max or Ferrari were able to win the races here and there. Only in 2020 we saw pure Hamilton dominance.
Monza
Russia
Austria
70th
Abu Dhabi
That one race Lewis had COVID for
Occasionally other drivers got wins, but still Hamilton got a lot of starting from pole and finishing on pole race wins with zero battling done with any other car, that was boring to watch. In 2016 Rosberg put his goal to beat Hamilton that year and he worked very hard to be able to manage to do it in the end. I hope Alonso gets Perez seat in 2025, so we can have more battling in the lead and have exciting Championship battle season between Verstappen and Alonso, when Perez just dosent look as fast or talented as Alonso is to challenge Verstappen.

Covid barely disturbs your race at all, when you can still consentrate on the race, while you have minor cancer for example, when cancer for example is not going to disturb your race consentration.
How to say, everyomes car is shit without saying everyones car is shit. Redbull: "The RB19 was an average car"
Funny how totally BS the title is without even mentioning How AMG dominated the race for the last 10 years before the Dutchman came to step in
Red Bull is not killing F1, formula 1 is dying itself
speedrun how to make it obvious you started watching 4 years ago
What is destroying F1 certainly isn't Red Bull (not their fault the other teams can't keep up) or any other team, but it's Liberty Media.
Drops single digit 8% of viewership - Red bull is KILLING F1!!!!!1!!!1
If you think dominance kills a motorsport, you've never watched motorsport. Before Max in Red Bull, there was Lewis in Mercedes, Schumacher in Ferrari. Lewis and Schumacher are kids when it comes to dominance. Sebastien Loeb, touted as "the man who killed rally," has *9 consecutive championships* .
Adrian is in a class of his own as the greatest car designer in the history of motor sports(it's literally unquestionable). He's pretty much the most important human being in the entire world of F1. He has accomplished twice as much as any one person could ever imagine. SOO, if I were him and was intent on continuing a career in F1 for another 5 to 10 years. I'd like to know just how amazing my abilities really are. Id see about joining a team like Williams, or Aston Martin. If he was able to make one of those teams into the winners circle; the feeling would be complete and utter content
A big difference is that Schumacher for example raced for different teams (yes I know he was with Ferrari for a long time, but he also had great results with Renault for example) and different teams had competent drivers and pretty 'equal' cars- Williams, Renault, Ferrari all had pretty good results. Instead of 1 team pretty much having the best driver and car with barely any challenge from the other teams.
Formula 1 is not being killed by Red Bull, it's being killed by the fact that the top 10 are glued in place with the bottom 10 being absolute tractors that are all within half a second.
Who cares if no Red Bull finishes if we watch the same race of P4 and P5 being 1.4 seconds from eachother, while P10 to P16 are within 5 seconds battling for position in the background.
When Mercedes dominated, the Top 2 was always set, with everything behind there changing every race.
chat is this real?
this dude is a straight casual 💀
Never watched Hamilton with Mercedes? What about Schumacher with Ferrari?
i believe penalizing teams for dominance is bad in general, don't make a regulation change that can favour other teams
The last 13 years in F1 has been down to a single team dominating the sport, such as RedBull 2010-2013, then Mercedes 2014-2020 and now RedBull again 2021-present, this has been the formula for quite sometime, if ask me, they need less restrictions on car development and the other teams just need to get better, but I'm not sure that will fix it, there is bound to be other issues too.
I started watching F1 this year cause of Max dominance
I was shocked and now I want to be an F1 racer even though the dream is close to impossible
One easy solution FIA WEC is using is instead of a Budget Cap, They have a Aero Cap, so any team has a chance to catchup no matter how much they have
Red Bull isn't ruining the sport, the other teams are by building shit cars.
Ferrari and McLaren: Am I a joke to you?!
@@akjacob7394 Ferrari only won cause Verstappen broke, and McLaren are behind Ferrari at a track they comprehensively beat the Scuderia at last year.
As long as we have a constructors' championship, we will have to live with periods of dominance when car and driver form an optimal combination. Those who don't like this can devote themselves to a unit class where the cars are equal. Stop complaining and admire Red Bull for doing a much better job than the other teams.
Best combination of car and driver. High reliability and very rare strategic mistakes.
Bro just woke up and started watching yesterday 😂
Why didn"t anyone complain when Luis Hamilton was winning , why is it a problem when red bull does it??
That thumbnail you really think a bull would stomp something before he gores 😂😂
Jokes don’t get too offended 😂
Check out some 80's races. Like 1985. Seven past or future world champions on the grid: Lauda, K.Rosberg, Prost, Senna, Mansell, Jones, Piquet... and also solid drivers like Berger, De Angelis, Warwick, Patrese, Arnoux.... ANYONE could win in their good day. Early 90's we had Prost vs. Senna and late 90's Hakkinen vs Schumacher. Sure those were head and shoulders above the rest of the grid but at least they battled eachother. Then were had prime Kimi at McLaren, Montoya, Alonso challenging Schumacher.
I completely agree with you. Now it's unwatchable. Not only because of Max's superiority, but it's all very sterile nowadays. The drivers don't have the same character and they look pretty much like politically correct boy band members.
Hate all you want, but I only watch classic old F1 races these days. Last years' TOCA was the last F1 race I watched... it was about as inspiring as a sausage supper.... and I've been watching every race since 1983. Not blaming Max who's amazing... but the sport is dying.
How can you blame red bull. Blame the teams that have to same money as RB and cant build a competitive car.
As a Merc fan: Shut up
People gotta stop whining about domination when they dont say anything when their favorite team was dominationg
2012 is still the best year for F1. Tough competition makes the race actually interesting. Never knew who would lead the championship, till the end.😢
Red Bull is killing F1 but Mercedes didn't???
Ah but no one was THIS mad when Hamilton and Mercedes was doing it…
I seem to recall another team in f1 that absolutely dominated and no one speaks of them these days and how many championships did they win again oh yeah 7 drivers and 8 team championships over double what red bull has won
The 2021 regulations being designed against low-rake cars is a myth. In fact, aerodynamic experts back then didn't agree on how these floor cuts would pan out. The goal of these new regulations foremost were to keep ever-improving laptimes in check and guarantee safety, especially with the tyres.
Also, you don't really come up with a solution other than one that has proven not to work and make F1 even more boring, which is dropping the cost cap. And let us not forget that if you take Max out of the equation the grid has never been so tight.
Let's just say this, if teams are fighting for p2, p3, honestly many times it's just for p3, p4, in a world championship, why is the championship even conducted? The races were more interesting and competitive when Mercedes was dominating. But take away nothing from red bull for doing an incredible car design that has a significant performance gap over rival cars right from the 2022 season.
There was a time when people at least tried to make these clickbaits not so obvious xD
So you were ok with the merc domination years, along with the 17, 23, 32 seconds win over P2? Its called racing! Merc fans are crybabies imo. Hamilton thinks rules need changing if he is not dominating every race.
atleast with mercedes it wasn't just hamilton at the top, he was still challenged by drivers like rosberg and vettel. the problem with red bull dominating is that perez cannot compete with max in perfomance and that leaves max winning every race with zero competition
@@slenderman7597 What you are saying is that Lewis wasnt that much better than his teammates (except Bottas, but that could have been a contract thing). Its not Max's fault that he is that good, RB tried enough teammates and they all failed.
@@slenderman7597 maybe time for a new teammate for max.
@@larryh968 Hmm, more meat for the grinder.
Lets just hope that something changes with the engine change in 2026
At national level football, you often have 3 leagues playing during the season: A, B, C. Depending on the results, some drop to the lower league while others go up.
In F1, you have the same three leagues, but they are all racing at the same time and on the same track. Depending on the results, some "go up" while others "drop down" - but they still race together. Anyone who watches F1 will likely have favourite teams and drivers in each of these "leagues". That's why F1 is one of the least competitive sports (on the top) while being one of the most fun and engaging to watch.
What's truly killing F1 are Hybrid V6s and Americans.
The only fans who are losing interest because of a "team domination", are all the fans who just showed up with DTS. Teams have been dominating since the beginning.
Since 2000
Mercedes 8 wins consecutive
Ferrari 4 wins consecutive
RedBull 4 wins consecutive
RedBull 3 wins consecutive
Renault 2 wins consecutive
Only McLaren, Ferrari, and Brawn have gotten 1 off championships.
So. Welcome to F1 everyone.
Red Bull Racing's current run is 2 years Manufacturer (Max won in the driver's title in '21 but Mercedes got the Manufacturer's title)...
So when you say unprecedented.. you are not counting:
1) the 8 years of Mercedes dominance that preceded the Max Verstappen Era, or
2) the 4 year Vettel Era before that, or
3) Ferrari's 8 year run in '99 to 08 with Schumacher, or
4) Renault's 5 year run in the 90's, or
5) Honda's 6 year run in the 80's, or
6) Ferrari's 4 year run in the late 70s, or
7) Ford Cosworth's 7 year's dominance before that, or....
Other than THOSE bigger and longer runs, I guess Red Bull's current run is .... unprecedented.
I would argue that, if Formula One survived those previous LONGER dynasties, the sport will be just fine as the current one runs its course.
The title does make for good clickbait so, I guess... get your paper, bu.
We should appreciate greatness while it lasts
