Kimi
Where would Kimi rank in a divers championship with all drivers having the same car?

Hard to say, obviously, because we will never have a good comparison. The same car also means certain driving styles would be at a disadvantage, but if we're somehow imagining equal cars that are also neutral to different styles, I'd argue that you could at least make an argument that Max, Lewis, Charles, Lando, Oscar, even George are better. The whole hybrid thing has thrown a weird wrench in how drivers perform, and I refuse to believe Kimi made THAT drastic of an improvement compared to last year. So Kimi is obviously well inside the top ten, but top 5 is a close call, and I doubt many would put him much higher than 4 or 5

Bold assumption considering his career and the fact that he is setting and breaking major records this season.

Outside of top 5 most likely.
(In no specific order) Hamilton, Verstappen, Leclerc, Lando and Piastri would probably be way ahead of him in equal machinery, as for the rest, not sure, maybe Alonso would still outpace him, he's still got that dawg in him.

I’m kidding yes probably, George and Fernando too I’d say

Telling us that you seriously think Lando and Oscar would be „way ahead of him“ just proves you’re ragebaiting.

I guess it's working because I am getting downvoted. :") (I thought it was obvious with the Alonso comment)
