No.

Red Bull still had the fastest car in Australia, Max just had a brake failure. McLaren had the best car in Austria and Silverstone.

Monaco isn't even on the graph, but McLaren also had the fastest car there, the drivers just didn't deliver in quali, but had a faster theoretical lap. Ferrari was faster than Red Bull in Singapore.

More or less. Spain is definitely a track where McLaren was fastest though, and it's debatable in Austin and Mexico. Track position after the start had a lot of influence in these races.

RedBull 3rd fastest in Australia not even you believe that if i go pick up the race thread and team thread from back then, what i read from back then is that without brake issue Max was going to win by 20s margin.

Perez finished 5th with floor damage, according to the whole thread and Horner. RBR was the best car there.

In brazil I was told that max drove the 25th best car, an F2 car was easily faster than RBR.

In Austria this graph reports RBR as the best car but I thought MCL was best of all since MIA, same with Spain.

This graph is just some guy's opinion and didn't disclose methodology.

Certainly dont agree with his analysis. There is always a LOT to look at in terms of which car was better over a race weekend.

Id dare say RBR were on top first half of the season, until after Miami (gifted the lucky SC gifting Lando a win there - otherwise a Max walk in the park).

After Miami - Red bull fighting for 2nd and 3rd best. Occasional race they were 3rd/4th best. Whilst the others suffered basic operational errors.

Brazil massive outlier, with driver talent and technique giving Max a epic win.

After that, we dont seem to have had much showing from Red bull to be fair. The others look faster in Qatar from what ive seen, but will see how the sprint and GP play out before that. But I guess the pressure is off for Max/RBR from now on. Not going to improve from 3rd WCC and Max has the WDC sown up, so no need to realistically 'race' other than do some work for improvements and experiments.

After MIA championship was a lot closer for all. Results ended up mixed. RBR and Max were very consistent and a ended up keeping their margin. Without the Canada/Silverstone part for Ferrari maybe they could have gotten more points than Max post MIA, but if my grandma had wheels...
