- In this video, I try to predict the Formula 1 2021 season which is set to be one of the strongest of the era with two proper championships already looking like they could go down to the wire and the strongest midfield we've seen. Subscribe to never miss any of the action: bit.ly/CYMsub

![Alonso's Unfinished Business With Formula 1: Why Renault? [EXPLAINED]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Tqs-MmSzTDk/mqdefault.jpg)
My prediction is that in the first race of the season Max Verstappen will be chasing down Lewis Hamilton in the closing laps and will pass him and give up his position due to track limits
imagine reading that a week ago haha no way I'd believe you
You nailed it. Amazing
XD
WOW! Go buy a lottery ticket!
@@jessemartinez2324 why dude? XD it was supposed to be a joke, look the publish date of the commentary lol
As of Monza:
-McLaren first win after 9 years
-Lewis first DNF after 3 years
-Max gets a home win in Zandvoort
-We had the shortest "race" ever if you can call it one in Spa
-Ocon first win in Hungary
-Max at one point indeed had a commanding lead of 30 points before Silverstone and Hungary cut it all
-Max won 3 times a row (France, Styria, Austria)
-And RB won 5 times a row (Monaco, Baku, France, Styria, Austria-Baku by Checo, rest by Max)
-Since Spain Mercedes actually only one once at Silverstone, by Lewis
-Lando Norris at one point was 3rd in Championship! (Currently 4th)
And the season kept on giving, down to that absolutely _insane_ final race.
Pretty much every race was memorable and interesting, just unbelievable
I think a main takeaway from the first race outside of Red Bull vs Merc is that Haas is a lot worse than Williams
was thinking the same thing
Especislly with Mazes🅱️in
They really wanted it to seem like they were competing with Alfa in dts
To be fair, Haas has rookies this season
yeah this was to be expected. they plan to upgrade ZERO during the season. that's.... unheard of haha
This season has exceeded all expectations. What a years it's been!!
Yeah but still 2010 and 2012 better
Dude, the production quality of this video is unbelievable, big fan of your work!
slowly but surely! Glad you enjoyed my friend!
I just want to see Checo do well, he really deserves it
He’s got the tools! Needs to step it up Saturday and he really could be on for a good one
Checo is a great driver, but unfortunately it depends on rb they do everything in function of Verstappen. Judging by the the start of 1st race weekend
One win so far, hope he keeps it up!
Let’s go a win in Baku and great race in France too
His last half season was amazing, absolutely stunning driving by Checo after he got the car figured out
It's always so much fun going back to prediction videos and see how things played out so far 😅😅
It's a day after the end of possibly the greatest F1 season ever. Probably the most controversial ending ever. As of now, Max is still WDC. Would love to, after all the dust settles, watch a video you made about the season.
Really hope the battle between max and Lewis can go down to Abu Dhabi
It’s hard to see how it won’t honestly!
I'd rather it stay to at least Brazil, because Abu Dhabi is shit tbh
@@bassistwithadeathwish7277 I mean Brazil is like the track when I think of Max, and yeah Abu Dhabi is super bad tbh.
I wish *Brazil* was the last race of the season. Think about it for a second. Max and Lewis separated by *5pts* going into the final race, and just before the start of the race it starts pouring down just like *2008.* 🍿 😀 🍿
@@CYMotorsport Unless someone will eventually point out continuously disrespecting the rules is not a way to take the CS seriously, I don’t think it’s fair to call Max an actual thread. He sure has the talent but obviously lacks te mentality.
I don’t think any other driver would have gotten away with stagnating for 6 years while blaming the ‘restrictions’ of his personalised Newey car for it.
It’s truely baffling how he singlehandedly managed to downgrade one of the most celebrated constructors of the history of F1 to some shady backdoor garagista with a dodgy one-dimensional car in order to keep on externalising pressure. Winners don’t mind looking at themselves for answers...
Graphics looking great as always my dude!
The graphics have really improved since the 2010 and ‘12 season reviews(those didn’t have bad graphics but the newer videos graphics are top notch)
@@JudeBlackwell740 for sure
I can’t even watch that fucking video anymore haha glad you noticed. I’m trying to focus on one thing ever single video
Glad to hear! Really going for the driver isolation design work on this one if you couldn’t tel
10:04 "But they are defenitely not stupid"
Leclerc:
I don't think so, I switch off everything😂
“I am stupid” haha I forgot about that haha would have been hilarious to put in
@@CYMotorsport 😂😂
I know it was a prediction but good lord how wrong you were😂😂
We’ve gone through 6 races now and Max is in the lead of the championship with Mercedes struggling more than we’ve seen in recent seasons. Bottas is nowhere to be seen and Checo is outperforming him without a sweat. I wonder how the rest will go but I guess we’ll see. This is definitely gonna be a season to be remembered.
Right? Loving this!
welp, it's not over until it's over
@@htnklouie welp now it is
Can't wait to come back at the end of the season when either these predictions will be right on the money or wildly incorrect. But knowing you as a knowledgeable person, my bet is that these will end up being scary accurate
Probably wrong but either way, it’s an obligation at this point to go on record. there was more modeling this season and no fia interference to mess it up haha
His constructors predictions are truly scary. The only mistake being him underestimating the Alpine team. His driver predictions were pretty off though.
@@Luke_Shimizupredicting all of the drivers except merc and red bull to finish next to their teammate was pretty naive
Best f1 content on CZcams by far, the careful analysis and thoughtfulness is much appreciated. Cheers from Chicago
Midwesterner here too! Ohio. Glad you enjoyed it!
YES!! I swear I love how well produced these videos are, they’re always so fun to watch
So glad to have joined the F1 party in a year that has been (so far) has been extremely competitive.
sameee, i started watching this year and it's great!
Been binge watching your channel. I’m new to all of this F1 stuff. Mainly been into NASCAR (still am). But wanted to see other types of racing. This past weekend was my first race to watch. Was very cool. Especially with weather playing a factor. Thank you for your videos as it’s navigating me of its history and what means what.
You picked one of the most exciting seasons to start watching.
I've been itching for more F1 content good stuff!
Got a FULL slate mate. This year is gonna be literally insane haha
Gold standard of youtube F1 content. Well researched, informative and brilliant production quality. Refreshing to not see just your face in front of a mic or a series still pics from the net.
Bravo.
I do my best to change it Up a bit until I grow enough to get some designers. That’ll be next and I can’t freaking wait. Imagine redesigned entirely fully animated scenes. I can talk about just about anything then haha
Lots of respect of all the work that goes in this video's! Keep it going my friend. Regards from Cyprus
YESSSSSSSS
Now we play the waiting game. Countdown until McLaren ruins EVERYTHING on this list lol

Thank you for this one! I was expecting it for a long time!
of course!
Great video as always Nick! Keep them coming. We have a crazy season ahead of us, and I want your opinion on everything.
reporting for duty!
The production quality is soo good I hope Netflix sees this and maybe take some input from you for the next season of drive to survive
Still waiting for that Lando and Mclaren Development video from last year! Love your channel man!
I just want to hear more of that Honda engine...
I’ll be making an engine asmr video here soon. Gonna be great haha
U need to hear a Merlin!
@@CYMotorsport Can't wait
This aged well
The only prediction video that actually talks about the caveats to the positions. Loved it!!
I had a lot more “alternative” aka when I’m wrong but didn’t wanna go too long on this one
Such great editing in your videos.
Glad you enjoy mate
Been waiting for this video for a while!!
Hell yeah I love your content. Keep it up
This channel is just too underrated!
I was so excited about the season but after watching this video it kinda dashed my hopes
Great video as usual 👍
Hahah don’t be worried my friend. Even if Hamilton wins it’ll be a challenge. And the chance bottas breaks down is high. IF that happens, it changes everything
Hey man, will you create a post season review? Your thoughts and reaction to how it played out compared to what you predicted?
Cant wait to see a video on the result of this season!
Rewatching after Imola. Looks pretty accurate so far - especially the hedging on MCL.
This will be a good year, and I'm glad I'm here for it
I really want everything you mentioned to not be true, but you more than spot on with this one.
Well this video aged well.. nice job, well done. Good calls on most of the predictions.. hey you can’t get it all correct.
This is how you make a prediction video. Chapeau.
Combined a lot of feedback from the last few so I’m really glad to see the constructive feedback come back affirming it. Thanks as always for checking it out my friend
I... you can't tell me this was written /before/ the Bahrain GP. You're a wizard.
this was written weeks ago haha I only changed the graphics bc I hate prediction videos with old cars and overalls. I have some recording as well of me time stamping prior to qualifying to prove that just in case haha
Great work as always. I agree with your predictions but the Mexican in me says checo P3.
that is 100% entirely possible. if he improves on saturday, I'd even say it's likely
Eyyyy, hello to your face =] haha keep up the great work.
I was waiting for this.
So far, this video has aged like milk
You are great!
Legitimately didn't watch this video till now because I didn't know who CY Motorsports was. Welcome back Cranky!
Haha I know I need to make that video still. I haven’t told anyone this but honestly it’s bc I had gotten the 100k plaque in that name and bc of those that wil not be named I changed RIGHT after so had to reorder. Then I wanted to custom make a spec sized tyre to hold the plaque as like a gift back to you all and it just has been an insanely hard project to finish haha month 3 now and cost a fortune but it’s amazing. I’ll do a reveal of all that and announce the name at once . Months later I know haha .
@@CYMotorsport I'm honoured to know, it sounds like it's going to be a treat. Everything you do is high quality so I'm sure this will be no different!
Good luck for this season, it'll be a million before you know it 🙌🏽.
Man I’m waiting for you to make a video about this season lol
Good time for a review on where we are mid season compared to where we all thought we would be
Honestly, not terribly far off. Impressive how close both the drivers and constructors predictions were.
10:46 I got news for you... LMAOOO
I feel the jinx 😂
"Checo will not be outgunning Bottas."
I mean, kinda?
I like your videos. Just thought I'd let you know that.
They like you
I like this prediction, but I don't think it will be that even, like Leclerc could split the McLarens, Sainz behind the second mclaren, after that gasly then stroll, yuki will finish above all the former world champions.
It’ll probably mix. One of the McLarens will separate for sure bc of race stops. It never ends like that in order but the pack racing dynamic may make it more in order. But if I were a betting man I’d go with your POV
Haven't been this excited for a season since 2012. Won't be as many winners in one season but expecting a real dog fight
2012 was a beast all on its own . Miss that racing
Such a good race!!! I am so excited about this season
One to remember!
I hope Merc and Redbull focus too much on this year's cars and get caught napping in 2022, just like what happened with McLaren and Ferrari in 2009, and maybe we'll witness a totally different championship fight we haven't seen since the hybrid era, also great video as usual👌
Nice analysis! Also.. thanks for the "if max were in a sister car - that's a totally different story!" Many think Ham can win no matter what yet he's not a 14 time champion!
For reference, here are the current 2021 Season standings (after Belgium sham GP):
1.- Lewis Hamilton
2.- Max Verstappen
3.- Lando Norris
4.- Valtteri Bottas
5.- Sergio Perez
6.- Carlos Sainz
7.- Charles Leclerc
8.- Daniel Ricciardo
9.- Pierre Gasly
10.- Esteban Ocon
11.- Fernando Alonso
12.- Sebastian Vettel
13.- Yuki Tsunoda
14.- Lance Stroll
15.- George Russell
16.- Nicholas Latifi
17.- Kimi Räikkönen
18.- Antonio Giovinazzi
19.- Mick Schumacher
20.- Nikita Mazepin
The Bahrain GP clearly shows why no one should underestimate Mercedes even if they don’t have the best car on the grid. They are bold enough to make weird strategies, better consistency by both Hamilton and Bottas will allow them to put pressure on Red Bull for occasions like last weekend where Perez wasn’t in the position to back Max up. And the race showed how Hamilton being Hamilton makes a difference to the pace a Mercedes can get out of the car while Bottas can’t.
It’s going to take a hell of a lot more than parity in the car department to beat Lewis as round 1 showed to your point
Please please please, do a video the same as the 2012 season video. 2021 gave us every crazy you could imagine in F1.
That was quite interesting !
I don't think the drivers will be "stuck" in their teams positions, I guess it'll be a bit more shuffled. Also the Honda engine looks really impressive this season, so RB and AT will perform a bit more than you said, but nobody could've known that before the qualifications. And I thought Alonso wouldn't be that good on the track after all these years, even if he got defeated by a sandwich wrapper.
Also (a bit unrelated) I'm really looking forward to Aston Martin become more and more on the front. They always "punched above their weight" (I heard this one so much they should put it on their cars), so with the budget and aerorestriction, I think they'll become really competitive, always having had to compete with a lower budget than the other teams. This and the future RB engine.
I love this team. I did a fun video a while back on them. No one watched it but still one of my favorites haha
You're a boss CY!!
I'm honestly excited to see how McLaren, AT, Aston Martin and Alpine go. I hope McLaren are knocking on Merc+RB soon, but I'm most excited to see how Gasly and Tsunoda go. Gasly strikes me as one of the nicest guys in the field, got a lot of time for him
Yuki seems like a savage low key
It's nice to see a CZcams channel that is not about hating on drivers, and acting like a tabloid.
Good predictions, hope you're wrong about Vettel and I feel you underrated LeClerc.
Rarely do the standings end up two by two. usually The best Driver from a worse team beats the second driver from the team just above.
You’re right. I have no way to split them without data which is why this will have some flaws by year end but on aggregate we’ll see !
Experience versus talent, really exciting to see how it's going and how it will end.
idk max is an experienced driver himself at this point haha
@@CYMotorsport yes of course, but Lewis is surely more experienced than Max 😅
@@muhammadsyafiuddin2531 youre 100% correct sir haha
Wonder if Hamilton is gunna announce his future driving plans earlier this season depending on where he is in the points.
I love your content but I'm REALLY hoping you're wrong about drivers and constructors. Especially given how Sunday went but as always great content
Same haha I always hope I’m wrong.
Means there’s something to learn
0:21 Thanks for not doing it. So many brit channels are so annoying saying that line. anyway. Subscription status
SMASHED
-I just want max to take the championship all the way to abu Dubai. I don't care if he win or doesn't
- Alfa is faster than alpine
- Bottas finish P4 in WDC (inconsistent in the second half of the season)
- Alonso finishing top 10 in the WDC
- Lando or Riccardo knocking on the bottas's door in the WDC
- 6 different constructors on the podium
- McLaren surprise pole at Monaco (idk why, I think we will see a suprise pole this season especially on a street circuit)
I do agree pole in monaco will be someone new to be honest.
Great vid. As an AM fan I agree with the driver prediction I truly believe lance will get the up on vettel. As far as their car I’m hoping they can close the gap to that front midfield before imola. And like you said Bahrain is not a good merc (and Aston) track.
They have that deal with the fia too. They will be really good by end of year. Lance is on the rise I swear. But I hope seb can rebound. Really unlucky start
wow watching this rn in 2022, max did and carlos beat leclerc
About time.
So you clearly suggest that the drivers don't play any role in the outcome, you've just put them in order just by the strength of their cars
12:20 I like that a lot... 'alleged' aerodynamic problems.
On point as ever, man!
Hope y'all healthy 'cross the pond. Season is looking in great shape so far, eh?
The next one will sat a little. For som reason ppl are underestimating how much track characterize matter. A rear limited circuit is not kind to the arrows. But they still won somehow. Doesn’t bode wel for max!
@@CYMotorsport I really REALLY want Seb to have some luck... & Perez - he looked like a chubby potato at the beginning of the 2020 season. He looks as lean and fit as I've ever seen him this time, though. I don't think he intends to waste his chance! Nice that Williams are not at the back. It was only 2016 that McLaren were 2nd from last, so I am not in total despair for the lads at Wantage!
That was a very two-by-two set of drivers standings, I think the championship will be more interesting than that!
I think this season is going to be intense. Predictions were spot on, for the most part. I’d only change the top few. The thing everyone forgets about is the pit crew. We would be foolish to not point the precision in which red bull hits their marks on a pit stop, and the lackluster attempts we’ve seen from Mercedes. That paired with the fact Perez is a strong driver. If that car works out for him, I think he’s going to bring a bigger fight than everyone expects. Bottas can get a seat after this year with any other team, but this is likely it for Perez. He’s hungry, and I thinks that’s going to take him a long way. All in all it’s going to be a fight for sure, but I think Red Bull might be able to edge out Mercedes with a better strategy because the driver pairing they bring. The other thing I think a lot of people are missing is, what happens if Perez and Verstappen start fighting for points position? Will Perez be aloud to race, or will he be asked to make way for the golden child? We are in for one hell of a season!
Another awesome video man, keep up the good work!
in terms of a title duel.. i think we could be in store for a mirror of hamilton:rosberg 2k16 in hamilton:verstappen 2k21 ... let’s hope it doesn’t end up that 🥩 beefy tho🤪 + best f1 content out there my guy!
85% correct through race 2. Spot on
Hmm… interesting predictions !
Glad to see red bull fighting Mercedes going to be a awesome first season of watching for me! These guys are next level can’t get enough of how crazy these f1 cars are!
Crazy 2021 season Merc vs Redbull and the battle for the best of the rest(Ferrari,McLaren, Alpine, Aston Martin, Alpha Tauri). I just hope that Williams is able to grab some points
im optimistic about this season. season needs to go all 23 (22 now) rounds.
i feel like they are def going to do it. their financials are trouble if they don't
I honestly believe the fight between AMG and RB will come down to reliably of the power plant. With RB making the transition from a Honda engine, to their own (file off the numbers and slap some new paint on it, they’ll never know it’s the same Honda) they may find themselves chasing bugs during the season. This may give McLaren an opening as well.
10/3 so far on point.
Only two races in but this is astonishingly good so far. Basically only overestimating Alpha Tauri at this point.
In the case of Russell and Latifi I think it's important to note that Latifi would have beaten Russell last year if Hamilton hadn't gotten sick, and that Latifi's race pace is pretty much on par with Russell's. If he manages to get his qualifying together then he has a decent chance this year. Granted he did get a lucky P11 in the first round in 2020 but still.
Also while Latifi was 0.620 seconds behind Russell in the Bahrain qualifying, the average gap between teammates was 0.545 seconds, so he really wasn't all that far off considering.
Haven’t finished the video yet but hoping you give ricciardo due credit this year🙏🙏
Hahah I actually did. Against my own wishes this time 😂
You mean I _didn't_ need to smash the sub button? My fist still hurts.
I think I might've understood your video. You predict that Max will be inferior to Lewis, and that Checo will be inferior to Bottas. Yet, you also predict that the Constructors Title will be much closer than the Drivers, while it would seem that it should be the exact opposite.
I'm also glad to hear you talk about Lance Stroll from a strictly sporting perspective. He's been around for a while, yet he is only 22. He consolidated his strengths last year (rain, race starts except the one where it truly mattered), and seems to have made his glaring flaw, qualifying, at least passable. While he was certainly underperforming in the second half of 2020, he wasn't as thoroughly bad as many seem to think; he did have 2-3 absolute stinkers, but more often than not it was bad luck (COVID, mechanical at Mugello, being rammed into by Leclerc and Kvyat). All this to say, I don't think he's a future Drivers Title contender unless his consistency drastically increases, and he's certainly no Max/Charles on pure pace, but with his skill set, he could become a race winner. We can recall how he not only got pole in Turkey last year under the most horrid conditions, but he also maintained first place on merit on race day until his front wing issues and his unfortunate tire strategy. But to bring it back to you: I agree, in an underwhelming car next to Vettel, he's in a position to learn and improve with relatively little pressure.
Not points wise, my confidence wise in terms of how close it’ll be. I’m more bullish checo is closer to bottas then max to Hamilton. Plus the allocations differ dramatically. Bottas and checo can swap even if one getting the upper hand, the delta would be much smaller given the 7 point swing between p1 and p2
That NART shirt!
These predictions were pretty good!
Your predictions are the most accurate.
Let’s hope so!
@@CYMotorsport Let's hope not. Still confident?
@@boukevanzinderen6321 it’s playing out just how I’m talking on aggregate so I’d say yeah
@@CYMotorsport Not really a prediction then. That's just splitting your bets! Starting the video with predicting 8 wdc Lewis and 8 title Merc and finishing it with Max and RB can win 😂🤣😂
@@boukevanzinderen6321 …. It’s almost like you just realized what an analyst is. I’m not a predictor. I predict bc I do this professionally. It’s a marker that speaks to what I bring to the table. You look back and measure how close what I said was. We’re not children here I assume everyone wants insight. There’s gradations of what’s possible. That “splitting my bets” aspect is what normal ppl call “nuance” haha. You click on video and expect human beings to be Nostradamus? I think you think too highly of humans I’m afraid if you ever thought that was possible. I’d advise you manage your expectations better my friend. If you’re actually trying to score what I say, do it based on the scenarios I present. Holistically you should went to trust someone who can present multiple scenarios. And it’s silly to suggest I’m blindly “splitting” too. When I deviate I tell you why and all those have happened. So when I’m “wrong” I know precisely why and predicted that too. Ironically McLaren is the only one I did blindly split which I was open about but even then I told you why. Not sure what else you want from me mate haha

3 correct placements for constructors - Mercedes, Red Bull, Haas.
9 correct placements for drivers - Bottas, Perez, Norris, Leclerc, Gasly, Vettel, Raikkonen, Schumacher, Mazepin.
All seems logical to me! Lance > seb is bold but the first race certainly adds credence
Whats crazy is Hamilton’s last retirement came in 2018 talk about consistency of engine and driver.
If Honda can match that we should have a tasty battle
The W11 was such a dominant car, with 65% carried over it feels almost impossible to imagine how any level of improvement from RB or deterioration from Merc can make that gap between the W12 and the rest small enough to dethrone Mercedes
How wrong you were!
