I get your point but it’s a bit difficult to ignore the most significant position in a race especially seeing how significant of an event it was that someone other than Verstappen picked up pole in qualifying yesterday
I don’t mean this in a disparaging way, new fans are just as important and their passion just as valid as grizzled ones.
But this era of domination isn’t new or unusual. Honestly, before Red Bull, it was Merc, then Red Bull. Every regs era has been dominated by a team. Some have been closer than others, but generally there’s always been one which is 90% better than the rest in terms of wins. It only changes towards the last couple of years before a regs change.
I would argue the cost cap makes this a new type of domination. They are setting records before the summer break and they will keep extending them well past
