#Checo faster than Max in equal machinery

I think Charlie would definitely challenge Max if he moved to RB
Charles is a better qualifier than Max and is as crazy as Max, and he definitely wouldn't listen to team orders just like Max. RB won't tell him to move if he is faster than Max.
I don't think he would be in Max' shadow. He is too sparkly to be overshadowed by Max.
now girl. THIS is a hot take if i've ever seen one 😭
charles is 100% the type to listen to team orders, he already does in ferrari– a team that gives him orders that fuck over his race more often than not. like charles listening to team orders and carlos NOT listening is why theres a war between chirlies n carlos fans. and yes charles is a better qualifier, but max is arguably a better racer. can't remember where i read this but while charles is PHENOMENAL and should be winning more than he is if it weren't for the current car/team right now, his driving style is flawed in comparison to max. max damn near drives a perfect race lately (when compared to checo), carries the car in the front and far ahead from the pack while his teammate struggles to put it into q3.
and while i agree charles would never be overshadowed by max, and i can appreciate that he would flourish in a car like the rb19, he would not be prioritized in rbr and i doubt he would fight that hard against that fact if he ever found himself in rbr with max. charles can't even prioritize himself in a team that calls him "il predestinato," in a team that loves him so freaking much.
so yes, charles would challenge max in a equal machinery. absolutely charles is as crazy as max is. but charles is also a team player, 100% will do what the team asks him even if it fuck over his race time and time again.
