LH: "I just wasn't good enough...I've got lots to sort out on my side...The setup they have, the brake, steering wheel, it's a lot different. Just struggling with confidence...can't brake late..." This was him many races into 2013 talking about the Mercedes W04... Patience ๐

It's not even as if they're in denial about him being a prick, they actually specifically like it

"Hahaha my driver bullies other drivers what a legend"
@FifthGear10 remember when Max said โan overtake on Bottas can't be the overtake of the yearโ ๐ญ๐ญ

So many teams have this issue btw Teams need to get 1 elite driver, and just trust them. Go all in, make them comfortable, and get 2nd driver who is quick but will be slower That's the only way you can dominate.
helmut marko: โit was important that the engineers started listening to max more. they did that before, but not to the extent of now. before they talked more about the numbers on the simulator or the CFD. max told the engineers what he needed, gained more confidence in the car

It's insane to me how much hate a 40 year old Hamilton gets for being a tenth behind the quickest guys in their prime when there's a big list of top drivers still in their THIRTIES who are retired or got sort of forced into retirement cause they declined so much

I think it's just rage bait for engagement at this point, these cannot be real opinions

Unpopular opinion: tires lasting too long is not the problem. It's actually the opposite. Drivers are driving slow & avoiding battles because the tires degrade way too quickly in battle. Plus dirty air is so bad. That's why the racing is poor - avoiding racing is optimal.

Is there even a single elite driver from the last couple decades not in this list (other than Lewis himself obviously)? Incredible. He's faced them all, no driver is ever going to have been tested as much that's a fact

Alonso, Raikonnen, Kovalainen, Button, Rosberg, Bottas, Vettel, Verstappen, Russell, Leclerc... Virtually all in their primes too... You'll never see a better resume of teammates and title rivals than this Yet he still broke every record ๐

I genuinely feel like Leclerc is not getting enough credit this season, he's extracting the maximum out of this car week in week out Also, Lewis' progression is getting absolutely 0 credit when it's been strong too The curse of a slow car + strong teammate, no room to shine

"randomised" checks they said
Lewis talking about Brazil 2021 ๐ง๐ท โI qualified pole and then I got disqualified for a wing that was 0.02mm out or something crazy like that. [..] I remember in that moment for me, my heart just sunk. Because I knew I had to win every race and I remember in that moment I thought

Yes, we're very aware that you care more about entertainment than sporting fairness, you don't need to explain that

Remember when Will Buxton confirmed that journalistic access to Formula 1 was threatened when they wanted to speak about the robbery of AD21 And then everyone just moved on

I mean, did Ferrari themselves not almost win the WCC last year? Are we saying they basically had the joint best car last season, and Leclerc bottled the title? Really?

It's fascinating that this is used as an insult. How do you think a team gets WCC points? A raffle?
