V10 by far.
V8 were decent.
Verstappen is the man right now. Reminds me of Senna

Agreed, except I remember Senna as supremely confident where Max comes off as arrogant. But he definitely has skills.

Re V10s: heard them at Monza in 2006 and Indianapolis in 2007. Insane noises.

Senna. No nannies, 1200hp, no down force, best to do it. Even Schumacher said Senna was the best driver ever. You dead wrong Brad. Watch the Top Gear tribute to him....Schumie says it there.
I judge F1 drivers based on their ability to drive in the rain when the car advantages are minimized. Senna was the greatest wet weather by leaps and bounds and is the GOAT.

Yep
Verstappen is a beast in the wet!
VER shows promise, nothing more. He has had many mistakes, childish moments and has zero championships.

He will be forgotten as LeClerc moves into the spotlight. LeClerc reminds me of Senna. He just has another level he can go to when needed.

Last year verstappen was solid in a much lesser car.
Honda is stepping up.

Verstappen > Leclerc right now
