Martin Villari on Max's Weakness, Why F1 Drivers Need Coaches, and Who'll Dominate in 2026

This week Brian and Matt are joined by Martin Villari, aka Lower Lap Time, after he left a comment on our YouTube that absolutely required follow-up. We get into why Max Verstappen is untouchable in the wet, why copying a teammate’s setup never works, how Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, George Russell, Charles Leclerc, and Lewis Hamilton approach corners, driver mentality, bad radio calls, and why Formula 1 somehow still hasn’t figured out coaching.
