Why not? They're all facing the same constraints. Shouldn't good drivers be able to adapt?
It depends. I've contended that a whole new set of regs favors younger drivers because they have less muscle memory for the older regs. So if everyone were the same age, I'd say sure.

If "good drivers" should be able to adapt, then why is Kimi out-performing George? I know I'm going to get a lot of smartass answers on that one, but the fact remains is that George is one of the best drivers on the grid, and talk prior to the season starting was that this would be "his year". Similarly, Charles is supposed to be just as good as Max according to some (I would contend no, but it's been said, so I'm taking it into consideration). So why hasn't he adapted?

And, if good drivers adapt, why is Max not beating the pants off of everyone else (my contention is that he's bottling it, but that's speculation)?

"Adaptation" is a nice idea, if it were all things equal, not just regulations.
 

Why F1 Is Flirting With an Impossible “Quadruple-Header” To Save Saudi Arabia

According to fresh reports, executives from Liberty Media and the FIA are actively “evaluating” a way to parachute the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix back onto the 2026 calendar. The problem? The only way to fit Jeddah into an already packed late-season schedule is to create an unprecedented, downright dangerous logistical gauntlet: four races in four consecutive weeks.
As of now, the 2026 season is set to conclude with a brutal, globe-trotting triple-header. Las Vegas Grand Prix (Nov 22), the Qatar Grand Prix (Nov 29), and the traditional season finale at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (Dec 6). But former F1 driver Robert Doornbos had clarified something important back on Ziggo Sport’s De Stamtafel program. “They now say that they are moving Abu Dhabi by a week and that they are slotting Jeddah in between,” Doornbos revealed. “That means you finish the season with four races in a row – Las Vegas, Qatar, Jeddah and Abu Dhabi.”
Can't an Iranian drone just fucking kill this fucking sand nigger from FIA?
 
Obvious answer is obvious, The current F1 regime is a great deal more concerned with generating shekels than the quality of racing on offer by an enormous margin.

The quality of racing on offer is the optimal long-term strategy for generating shekels, but why would anyone be concerned about the long term in this economy
