I think the data and performance at the beginning of the year gives a more realistic picture, of course it's not at the level of max but the development in the car is usually done according to the champion driver. This is a very important detail and you have to do this if the champion pilot wins you every race. As the car improves, max's performance improves and for Perez there are question marks, which probably creates more question marks in himself. Max prefers cars with a strong front end, while checo feels comfortable driving cars with a strong rear end, as many drivers do. At the end of the day, the driver's self-doubts also increase and the result is obvious. Perez is a driver who gets demoralized quickly and loses his in-season stability, but if we saw him at Aston martin for example, I think he would have scored as many points as Alonso.
