F1 Has A Problem No One Wants To Admit - Predictability could lead to the sport being boring.
Now, just in case you guys misunderstood the video, I am here to talk about the problem of predictability in Formula 1. The top step of Formula 1 is so predictable to the point where a lot of people find the sport boring. Even if you can have so much entertainment at the back of the grid with teams like Williams, Sauber, and RB fighting, because at the end of the day, Red Bull is going to take all the wins at the top. And there's nothing much that Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes, and Aston Martin can do, especially because Aston Martin specifically made a tractor for 2024 - amazing stuff, guys. But what I'm trying to say is that because of this predictability, it has made the sport's viewing experience very restricting, as we have to rely on watching the battles at the back of the grid in order to entertain our ADHD monkey brains. Now, I don't have a problem with this personally, but a lot of other fans do because a lot of people want to see drivers like Carlos Sainz, Lewis Hamilton, George Russell, Charles Leclerc, Sergio Perez , Fernando Alonso, and so much more fight for championships, but we already know that Max is going to win that. I'm not here to say that Formula 1 is boring. That still remains debatable because there are factors that make Formula One boring but also factors that make it not boring. I personally don't think it's boring, also because of the memes, but I don't understand if you would have that opinion. I just hope that other teams would step up their game because as fans, there is really nothing much that we can do. Also, I like how this is a very interesting topic that I'm talking about and I decided to explain it in like the goofiest way possible. So I hope you all have an easy time trying to understand my very unfunny humor.

Well this is interesting to watch 😂. I'm glad I found a content creator who actually knows what the middle ground is and is able to not take things too seriously all the time. I'm pretty new to F1, the contrast and drama in the community is actually pretty discouraging sometimes.

@@Lordperceval1616 was it that big of a deal, becoz idk think so that Alonso slowed down heavily (I'm sorry if I sound stupid its cuz I'm new to F1, just started in 2023...And yes I'm not a DTS fan) 😅
Even after Max got a DNF, this video still holds truth. Everyone only started feeling entertained the moment Max retired. 😭
Plus, even without Max it wasnt any better, the race felt the same, not much action in the top, the only difference is that Carlos won and George bottled it.
Smooooth operatorrrrr
Tbh it was basically the same. With 5 sec + gab from p2, we all knew Sainz would win. And not much going on the middle of the pack either. So it just like regular race, but Max get swapped with Sainz

But it was boring, in fact if Verstappen had not DNF we would have a fight for the win between Max and Carlos
It was still boring lol, no racing whatsoever for any position. The one that was there russel crashed and it was for p6
Not boring lmao? literally no fight for the win no fight for the podium positions, It was quite literally a tyre management GP.

I'm kinda into F1 recently and I love this channel
If have watched F1 long enough like I have, you would know that it’s mostly boring. It’s parading than racing because there would be one team nailing the design and dominating the next 3-4 years. Afterwards there would be another team’s turn to repeat the process all over again.

Dude your Australian gp review video is gonna be crazy
I would argue even in the Aus race (after Max retired) the race was incredibly boring and the most entertaining parts of that weekend were the Williams chassis drama and George’s unfortunate last lap crash. Obviously it was also great to see Sainz win, but for the most part the actual race wasn’t much different to normal, it was just Sainz ahead of everyone by quite a bit. The issues were still there, the winner was just different.
this aged well after melbourne 😭💀
I think a way to fix a part of the problem is giving everyone points, from first to 20th, that way drivers fighting in the back of the grid are actually doing it for something rather than just doing it for fun.
No points to 19th/20th (alpine) bc yes
This is exactly what i keep saying, it would make the race feel alot more exciting as people would feel like their routing for something and it would make it harder for one person and one team to dominate.
Plus i always feel so bad for the drivers who dont get any points, the leaderboard always looks so sad 😂
Ocon ended in front of Hamilton, Russel and Verstappen 🔥🔥🔥

yep, i mentioned that in the video...domination isnt anything were not used to. But still, for new fans...they dont know whats coming 💀
American owners, so you can bet something is coming to slant the budget, based on the results of last year, and/or importing driver salary under the budget cap.
They like their sports firmly socialised.
Its so funny seeing team lh triggered by max's domination when lewis had a car 1 second faster than the rest for almost a decade at the point the only real fight was rosberg
but you had the fight and mercedes let them fight. perez is just no competition ...
Yeah it’s only Lewis fans that are complaining no one else 🤦♂️
I like how you have to pretend Vettel and Ferrari simply didn't exist to make your point.
With lh their was actual battles, verstappen has ruined f1 for me
You really should be official F1 commentator 😂
Been watching F1 since 80's and you really explain what is happening most accurate.
Great video, I appreciate that you used Blue Monday. To be honest, I would replace Dutch national anthem after every Max's win with that banger.
the pic of lance stroll for ”braindead” caught me off guard 💀💀
congrats on the sponsor! you're my fave f1 youtuber by far and I'm so happy to see you growing, great vid as always 🙌
Aged like fine wine brother, Carlos won the Australian grand prix and max dnf
Solution: Extend points finish to 11th and 12th, that'll give eight drivers realistic targets to finish within the points and not have to depend on a top team to yeet their car into the walls. It will also reduce points attributed to luck on the end of year standings
This video aged like milk.
(At least for one weekend)
Crazy how max DNFs after saying it's the only way for F1 to be entertaining 😂
And even with that this race was pretty boring otherwise, besides for Lewis’s engine giving up and Russell crashing on the final lap.
I found my cure of boredom in WEC and WRC, the amount of team work, engineer, classifications, and rules makes those racing far more unpredictable. The fans are also fun to watch (esp. WRC). Many of those race cars actually end up on public streets for daily use.
It's too bad they don't market WEC and WRC above F1.
A list of things F1 needs to be incredibly interesting:
-More teams
-Less technical regs
-That's it.
Seriously, ease up on the engine regs. I'm not saying that we need to go back to the 70s where everything from a V6 to a flat 12 to an H16 were on the same grid. Just... If Ferrari wants to burn more oil, let them do it. If merc wants their hammer time mode, let them have it. If RB wants bendy wings, let them have them. If everyone is "cheating," nobody is.
I want the only engine restrictions to be on displacement and forced induction, but I know that'll never happen. All I want is something different than now, where I can't tell you what engine manufacturer a team is running because it doesn't matter.
After watching this video, the FIA took it personally, and made it so that hours later, Verstappen broke his engine, Hamilton and Russell retired and made the driver who Ferrari replaced be the one who is giving them their best results, including win the Australian race by a wide margin.
Just had the aus Grand Prix, and as soon as max was gone it was soo good
Exactly bruh, why we gotta rely on a Max DNF for F1 to be funn 😭
There is actually a really easy solution to this problem, but it would require a big change to the structure. quite simply, Drivers no longer sign with teams for a whole season. Rather, each driver has to drive in each car twice.
20 Races, 2x with each team for every driver, teams and drivers bid and compete for what cars they want at what circuit.
Instant competition at every race, and every driver is a contender.
because lets face it, if you put any driver on the grid in the red bull all year, they are going to end in the top 3.
After being a Max fan for a few years, I'm cheering on Piastri now. Hard to make a case that McLaren are predictable.
They are anything but
Love your content, so good! Need 100k immediately
Thank youu, maybe one day 🤞🥰
@@RicksF1Addiction Got to support a fellow nando fan when I see one😉
Genuinely love watching your videos, keep at it!👍
I was actually thinking of a potential fix for f1 long term and saw a post on the system that motogp uses
Basically its a system of consessions that ranks every manufacturer into rank and the lower ranks are allowed for instance to have more upgrades and actually have alot more test time for aero and unlimited for engine whilst the higher team have some limits placed upon them but the no spec parts extra or things like that
Rank changes happen mid season and in between them its a little more complicated but pretty straight forward system
So for the long term what this does is make the sport more natural because it still gives engineers the freedom to innovate trough out the grid but the higher you are the smarter you have to be and gaps will naturally close will this fix the wheel to wheel issue no
But it does fix the unpredictability issue and in a natural way as long as they don't tinker with it too much can be used over many regulations
8:00 Checlerc?
It's predictable and boring. Simple as that. It's like watching a movie or show and knowing exactly what will happen, it just makes it less fun and uninteresting to watch or follow.
Never been more excited to your next upload hahaha
commenting just to be annoying
Dawg 💀
Man most of the things said in the video are correct, but the timing w/ the australian gp is so funny (but yea, a max dnf is what it took to an entretaining race, like the good ol days in 2015 (except 2015 was MERCEDES nomination, Not Hamilton domination or Rosberg domination)
Rick ,this is your sign to upload a new the video some hours before every race 😂😂
The main problem is we know not only the winner, but basically the entire top 10 before the race starts
Let me lay it out for you:
Max will win
Perez will be 2nd no matter how he drives
Leclerc/Sainz guaranteed top 5 on pace
Mercedes are barely in the top 5
McLaren can’t decide whether they want to be top 5
Aston Martin will continuously fuck up when there is actual competition
Stroll will fuck up because he’s Stroll
VCARB exist
Haas exist
Alpine are slow
Albon will be 11th-14th
Ricciardo will underperform
Stake will get knocked out in Q1
And the entire grid stayed the EXACT same. How exciting… 😴
I think just change the points system to extend to the entire grid, not just the top 10. Off The Grid channel has a great video on it called "Is it time F1 update the Points System?". I'd recommend you check it out. If F1 was to adapt this, battles would be exciting at all positions in the grid, regardless of if the other teams are failing to keep up with the top teams. From the video, you could see that the recommended scoring system doesn't hamper consistent drivers and teams, but at the same time adds value to the less consistent teams trying their hardest in other races. It would also better represent individual drivers and team performances.
This is a good idea!
A retirement should be the only time you get no points just to try and prevent back marker mfs from trying to killshot other backmarkers for a couple points. Also add more strict penalties for thr shady lines these mfs take. Like if someone gets run of the track into a barrier the person who caused the crash should lose points that race. No more max bs and tbh lewis 2. Make the drivers drive correctly
This aged not so well😂 Lando, OneWins!
3:24 I don't know how to bring it to you, but Max lost the 3rd race. You have to cut your Balls off, i didn't make the rules. (If you say, "a couple of" is less then 3, you should make a community post, where we can decide)
Ur channel is generally funny, as someone trying to find more f1 yt creators I think ur content is really great(also I 100% support ur solution, send those alpains into the rb sidepods)
and now we got 4 different winners in 5 races, 1st Norris win, Leclerc breaking the monaco curse and Verstappen 6th
this video aged hella well
Here after Max DNF and Ferrari 1-2 finish ☝️
Finally got break from Dutch anthem 😌
DRS and pit wall driver orders have wrecked the sport. No more driver battles, no more teammate battles. The best parts of the sport have been ruled out.
The Australia GP proved that the problem is not Max winning by 20+ seconds. There's a fundamental lack of "racing" within the F1 teams. The cars don't seem to be able to keep up with each other, may it be because of dirty air or because of their weight and size. Most tracks have very little overtakes and even with DRS on lap 2 it doesn't seem to make a difference in racing.
Even with Max out we didn't see any racing for first place or even second place. Actually barely any racing from the 6th place upwards.
This is not an issue with one team being really good or a driver being really good and the others are not. The rules that ended Mercedes dominance didn't do the sport any good either and the FIA doesn't seem to admit that and, unfortunately, I don't see think the new 2026 rules will fair better.
love your content brother ❤
Chop chop 🪓😂
Max domination is not an issue. The issue is that the racing is non-existing in the so-called pinnacle of motorsport. There's no action. No passes. The few passes are made with DRS, which is boring and easy. No side-by-side. I've been watching F1 since 2006 and my interest right now is close to zero since I discovered other racing series like Indycar or IMSA. Look at this weekend's F3 race and the one in F1. Same circuit, same day, but it's like they're different sports 😴

Bro I'm loving the content. Seen every video and hope you continue to grow.
The boring part is due to the cost cap. Teams need a longer time to catchup due to the fact that they can’t spend their way to a solution.
Yes and no. Removing the cost gab and youll have same old same old. Better way is to scale the budget. The furter behind the bigger the budget. That way Redbull mercedis and ferrari dont limitless spend on the car as before. But teams like stake can soend more than them due to being lower ranked the year before and catch up more.
@@WrathNL I agree, but for the lower teams it is hard to meet the current budget caps let alone to raise them.
So either accept the fact that F1 will always split between the big teams and the lower ones and cater for the needs of the top 5.
O keep it like now and instead of watching a fight for the lead you watch Hulkenberg battle Tsunoda for p13
Maybe they should raise the cap for slower teams, and keep it lower for others.
Could help with the team discrepancy.
That Clarkson/Brundle clip was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thumbnail. Great vid, love the channel!
Alternatively, alter the points system. If you want to make the interesting midfield area more competitive, make it so p14 gets fewer points than p15. Give them something to properly fight over. Below is a proposed new system. [If you strongly disagree, just do so in your own mind - please don't insult me in the replies]
Current system:
1st - 25
2nd - 18
3rd - 15
4th - 12
5th - 10
6th - 8
7th - 6
8th - 4
9th - 2
10th - 1
nothing will change by adding more points except in the end of the season the last team will finish with 50 ish points instead of 10 or 12

A big problem with F1 is also the big bulky wide cars. The weight and wideness of the regulations really make it difficult for overtakes to occur.

The more you know the better it gets. Each battle has meaning if you understand why. Casual drive to survive crowds will drop off and hopefully it will be a lil less corporate.

3:29 bro u got do it :) max didnt win australian grand prix ... now ur balls are not safe lol
Max still will win the most of races.
That Haas one was Violation
Australia even though Max was out of the race the actual race was still pretty mid like there was barely any wheel to wheel action or daring overtakes. The only thing that gave me some serotonin this race was Tsunoda getting some good points since he's my favourite driver. The fact that redbull can't be on the top step of the podium at every single race in a season is at least comforting that they're not gonna break that record as well
