Don't know if this has been brought up, and it may be crazy. But Yuki is the shortest driver by far, and Lawson is the same height as Max. I'm wondering if this makes it easier to setup both cars.

The KitKat man had about the same height and weight as MAX and he really s@cked in the RB20.

As for the 2025 RB21 setup ,that wouldn't make the difference in height and weight of the drivers , because the position of the RB21 custom made seat is the same in both cars .

I know , it's as you said with the gladiatorial training from Jos, this will continue for as long as but let's be open to Lawson who is a different kettle of fish to Checo and some of the others... it's those hungry eyes of his you mentioned also

Jos was and still is a nobody. More impressive is to not have the resources, or insider information and just be better than everyone else.

It's admirable to me that Jos came up the ladder from a struggling working class fellow in the early days to make things happen and make himself a name, not like some of these rich drivers that were introduced to F1 with no money spared .

Jos Verstappen is the reason why his son MAX Verstappen is a 4-time F1 World Champion .

Mate . And don't tell me what I have seen here in Belgium (Genk) at the kart track
Home of Champions => https://www.homeofchampions.be/

MAX DESTROYED everyone and won everything !

MAX was faster in the rain (on slicks)! than the other drivers on the dry track.

Yuki Tsunoda in 2024:

🔹 12 Q3 appearances
🔹 Beat teammates 18-6 in qualifying
🔹 Beat teammates 14-6 in races
🔹 Scored 65% of his team’s points

Still not enough for the RBR seat...

Talking about karting I now know where I was going wrong doing a couple things, one of them was not leaning onto the loaded rear wheel on turns.

Redbull has more data than these summaries. Apparently Lawson was faster than Tsunoda in race pace on similar tires. The gap in qualifying time was 0.069 seconds, in favor of Tsunoda. Lawson also did well in defending and passing more seasoned drivers, Tsunoda still gets all flustered and then drives like crap once he gets angry. Tsunoda has 4 years of experience, Lawson has less than 1, broken up over two seasons, driving on many tracks that he's never seen before. Lawson is jumping into F1 at about the point that it's taken Tsunoda 4 years to get to. Lawson was the right choice.

I was hooked on Lawson ever since he knocked Max out in Q3 in Singapore last year. Let's go buddy!
