More points brings more money to the team. Button therefore delivered a greater cash yield for McLaren. Racing Teams are a business !
Teams only receive money for points. Button delivered a better ROI than Hamilton over 3 years as he scored more points. Do you run a business ? Serious question.
Yeah more points during a SEASON. You think Redbull are gonna get money for points they scored last year? Loool!! Please tell me you are kidding
Hamilton scored fewer points than Button over their tenure together. Points = Money. Simple economics. LOL
LOL Button delivered more points cash over 3 years than Hamilton. What prescription drugs are you on ?
So just to be clear...... you think a driver/team can carry over drivers and constructors points to the following year?
So just to be clear........... you think you can collect cash at the end of the year and carry those same sales over for the next year?
You keep using these numbers. It’s true if you only look at the statistics. Looking at how he beat Alonso you don’t take in account what was going on behind the scene between Alonso and Dennis. For example how Hamilton broke an agreement between him and Alonso resulting at the end in a grid penalty for Alonso. Costing him a lot of points. Yes he did end with more points than Alonso but it’s not like he beat him on the track.
Bull. Do you remember when Alonso held up Hamilton in qualifying? Incedents happen every single race. Don't go down the rabbit whole of nitpicking every incedent of a season. Hamilton beat him. End of story.
Now you are clutching a straw ! Points may get return from FOM, but GP wins bring prestige to a team and attract sponors, and they are the real source of income.
Which would still be impressive from Ham as a rookie, but FIA rules says Hamilton technically beat him.
U guys can’t help but argue about him. Truth is he is a 7 time world champion and those are the facts even if they can be put in perspective. If max wins 8 the same process will be taking place. People don’t love utter domination and divas Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
McLaren is run as a team, not as a grocery store! The palmares of a team and its historical success is an asset that go in the record books for ever. Who remembers what money a team received from FOM years later? IT'S NOT IMPORTANT. But the wins obtained by teams are there for all to appreciate. Well, not by you obviously ....
no but they will look how many points a driver gets over the course of their contracts, it’s related to performance.
No, Hamilton had more wins and poles than Button. Winning is related to performance. A team gets more exposure/sponsorship through winning. Points don't demand as much. Giovinazzi has scored points the last 2 years. Gasly has more wins. Which driver is more valuable for sponsorship?
