That must be why Ferrari and Red Bull have been quicker at several tracks this season. Must also be why the Mercs have trouble when following other cards...Quote:

As a Brit I really want to be happy for him but he seems such an obnoxious flashy **** that it's really difficult.
THIS - I really don't want him to succeedQuote:

Using your logic do you think Ramsey would have won anything if he'd had stayed with us?Quote:

Bottas can still come second, he's not that far off Vettel.Quote:

The "best car" comment about the Mercs I don't believe this season. It's great when in clear air but has problems when having to follow, especially on certain tracks. Red Bull has improved a lot, reliability imo has hurt them. Ferrari seem to be there or there abouts, but Vettel has really turned into a whiny little bitch this season.
You missed out men kicking a bag of wind into a net :sherlock:Quote:

Alonso said part of the proof of how good Hamilton is was in 2 seasons he won races when he was driving an inferior car.
His driving ability in the wet is above and beyond what anyone else can acheive and that's not the car.
He has produced single lap times in qualifying that even Mercedes mechanics were baffled by, because they said the car shouldn't have been capable of it.
His race-craft is supurb.
These are some of the things that make him better then the others, not the car.
If Alonso is saying that then only a fool can claim Hamilton isn't superb.
Alonso has been performing miracles in the McLaren, a car most notable for not having a f*cking engine in it...
IMO Alonso is the best based on pure talent. Hamilton is definitely up there. Vettel is definitely good but displaying his anger management issues.
Vettel obviously has issues. His behaviour has been shocking this year. Needs to grow up.Quote:

Not forgetting when he drove in to Hamilton a few races ago, no penalty. Quite shocking.Quote:
