If Red Bull is so dominant, how do you explain Perez? The RB20, and the RB19 before it, are very good cars. But, it is Max Verstappen that makes the Red Bull seem so doiminant.

This.
People love to understate Verstappen’s ability and overstate the cars ability.

Nico Rosberg said the same thing during the broadcast today. Perez is a quality driver, Max is just on another level right now.
Nico also stated Hamilton was top five ever to race F1.
Nico has to say HAM is top 5 all time or it devalues his own WDC. I don’t know if LH is a top 5 but you can’t deny his stats so perhaps he is. Don’t know where Alonso is in the rankings but just watching a 42 year old perform like he does in a car like that is so pleasing to watch.
I think we all have to sign a petition and all agree to just have Max stay home and give him this years WDC as well as next year and show back up in 2025. If he doesn’t show up, the finishing order is impossible to predict.

How many times did he correct the other announcers? I didn't realize how much garbage we are being fed until he did the full commentary this weekend?
Agreed
He also brings a bit of “I don’t care what the teams think of my opinion” to the broadcast. If he sees a dumb move (Alonso on softs so early) he calls it out and says it was dumb.
He had a few comments about WHY a driver or team will do this or that, and you know it’s coming from experience not just a guess.

Agree as well. There were little things that the drivers do that are never explained to us unwashed masses by Nico this weekend. The 3 burnouts on the front straight (don't know why 3), the head space a driver is in before lights out and how qualifying badly forces one to rush the standing start procedure. Little things, that maybe don't matter, but as some of us are F1 junkies, it's interesting to know.
Brundle is OK, and his gridwalk is so outrageously bad as to be entertaining...
But give me Nico Rosberg anytime. He's outspoken, his knowledge is real, and it's current.
Now if we could just get rid of that *sshole Croft....
