    it seems his preferred car setup (strong front, light back) and his driving style with it (he does many small corrections - super visible when you look on older F3 videos).

    here is the video I took so this from ;⁠-⁠)

    I did know that he prefers a other setup than Perez, but I didn’t know to what extent and what difference that made. As this driving style is second nature for him by now, and it really seems to be faster, I don’t think someone could learn this later on life - at least not as good.

    edit: forgot to add, besides the floor of the RedBull, to which every other team said, that they are more than just a bit behind, they also managed to give their DRS more power than just reducing drag. they guide the air in some way, that, with the open flap, they get even more speed of of that - probably introducing done vortexes to destroy the air stream for other downforce elements, but I’m just guessing
