for the 4th time. First brit to ever do that.
Has to be favourite for Sports Personality as well I guess.
good luck to him
if ever you want evidence of someone having the chance and being groomed to be a success ( in his car being a race car driver ) he is that person young and gifted ? ? ? or just pushed heavily to achieve ? ? ?
As a Brit I really want to be happy for him but he seems such an obnoxious flashy **** that it's really difficult.
The only way to see who’s the better driver is to get them all to drive identical cars. The simple fact is it’s down to whoever’s got the better car. I remember going back a few years when Button won the championship. Up to that point he’d barely been a contender. Then he gets the best car and suddenly he’s a great driver.
Obviously there’s a lot of driving ability involved but if Lewis Hamilton was in one of the weaker cars then he wouldn’t win a thing.
I can't decide which is the more boring, men going around in circles in a car, or men trying to hit a small ball into a small hole on a lawn.
Sport my arse.
Bottas can still come second, he's not that far off Vettel.
Identical car thing will never happen - Sky tried that with the A1 series and people just didn't care. F1 will always be part sport, part technical innovation.
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.
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.
