    Lewis has how many wins? 103 or 104? The real question is will he win this season to keep up his streak of at least one win for each of his 16 years in F1. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Lewis told his team: "I really don't know what you guys expect me to do!!"

    Ummmm, you're a 7x WDC title holder......try beating your team-mate whom has ZERO WDC titles.

    To be fair, I think that was said about a couple of vague instructions from Bonnington.

    Toto said in an article that in the last 3 races, they've been "experimenting" on Lewis car to get it to his driving style.

    Russells car........not so much.

    Quite possible. Mercedes is probably writting off this season, simply hoping to get rid of the porpoising they don't seem to solve.

    I think Toto Wolff is realistic and has realised by now that Hamilton is over the hill now. Russell has taken over the shop.

    How Mercedes will handle that departure will be interesting.

    They will honor his contract if he stays after this year and find a replacement. Not other tactics are avail. Nothing new. A driver leaves at some point!

    Six months ago, ham was battling for the title. And now he is suddenly over the hill?

    Perhaps there are other explanations to ham's placement in the Driver Standings, especially relative to his teammate. I'm trying to remember how well Russell drove ham's car back before ham was "over the hill"....
