So you think if you asked the entire worldwide audience you’d get about the same outcome? Oscar on 1, Lewis on 4? Sure.
Maybe, worldwide casual fans, new fans, old fans, keyboard warrior fans, merchandise purchasing fans? Worldwide UK fans?

You can have 1 opinion, the 2048 the race poll respondents are entitled to an opinion each too… 2048 x more data than you are providing?

Generally I think the audience loves a winner, and loves someone getting the most from a car - I would guess Max and George’s fan base growing this year on individual performance, while Oscar has been delivering consistently up till the last couple of races so would be gaining heaps of fans.

Sure it’s a uk centric sport and many international coverage is rebroadcast sky so the common Norris and Hamilton based commentatorgasms will also affect positive for those drivers with a chunk of casual audience.
 
And if the rumours are anything to go by, it'll be between Lindblad, Tsunoda, Dunne and Lawson for the 3 available seats across RB and RBR.

Alpine is anyone's guess.

Might be 3 seats for three drivers if this is anything to go by:

"George Russell in this year's McLaren would challenge for the title more than Norris is"
Yeh, seems pretty plausible.
George Russell in this year's McLaren is already world champion.
I think it would be depending on teammate.
If it was Russell and Antonelli then 100% agree.
If it was Russell and Norris then I don't think he would have it locked in yet, but he would win it.
If it was Russell and Piastri then I think not locked in and 50% or less of beating Piastri over the season.
 

Aston Martin Formula 1 junior Jak Crawford will step up to the role of third driver for the Silverstone squad for the 2026 season.


The 20-year-old American, who joined Aston's junior programme last year, will become the team's official reserve driver after a range of simulator work, private testing and FP1 outings.

Poor kid. Replacing Drugovich, will sit there for a few years wasting away while nepo Stroll racks up the Q1 eliminations and DNFs. Maybe he'll get Alonso's seat once Fernando retires, but that spot usually goes to old ex-world champs who couldn't win a title at Ferrari (Lewis, it is your destiny).


Also eliminates a theoretical landing spot for Tsunoda if he gets kicked out of the Red Bull family.
