Murray Walker: Hamilton Better Than Senna, Schumi

We see eye to eye there brother!

 

Nope I didn’t get confused. Hamilton is a great driver he just simply never had to climb the ladder- he arrived in a gréât team to begin with, just like Villeneuve in 97. When given a poor car both didn’t do much and that’s where to me a Senna shines brightest because of his year in poor teams.
Hakkinen- fast driver, not good on
Wet. Not worthy of being goat at all to me

So if Schumacher/Senna had started off with Mclaren or Williams then went to Ferrari, won 8 championships after it was over , you would say he is not one of the greatest? All because he started with a good team?
I must correct you- Hamilton still won multiple races and podiums when he didn't have the best car.

 

Vettel... don’t know what to say. He always made mistakes but had pace - now I think psychologicaly he is just out of it.
Like Hamilton he benefited from the dominance of his car... after not much though to be fair his first seasons at Ferrari were good

Hamilton never driven for something nearly as bad as a toleman, cars would never finish the race lol
I would say he had an easier path for damn sure and would tell you that there is something about being successful from the back that elevates your legend.
I don’t see that in verstappen, vettel, Hamilton even though the first two, technically started in a middle of the pack squad.
Again you don’t mistakenly become great and formula one having a team component to it it’s hard to tell who is the best...a pool of goats sure but proving who amongst them is the best is hard. Maybe within their eras is more of a fair debate.

I respect your view, although I would say Senna started off in a wealthy family versus Hamilton. I don't think any great started F1 in car worse than the Toleman, still Fangio and others who only drove for top teams are still great

 

The Fangio era deserves even more respect because they put their lives at risk every race. Fangio loved senna so much that they didn’t tell him he was dead not to
Hurt him.
Now the Hamilton was poor story- surely not wealthy from Senna that’s a given and yes his dad took loans against the house etc but again i can tell
U, and I wasn’t poor, that just to get the loans and so
Forth you have to have a certain level of income. Banks don’t lend just because , point is my parents could never afforded to get the loans etc...So yes he wasn’t rich but poor? Compared to
The other kids for sure but probably not poor like some are. F1 isn’t like soccer or other sports where you can made it rags from riches. There is a barrier to entry.

Easy to be the greatest when you've sold your soul to the devil

 

Only devil hamilton sold his head ro is to get hair transplant that’s about it. He is a young dude who went a bit Hollywood but u know what- I don’t blame him for it at all.Id have married Nicole though, 41 and she still looks amazing

..Not to mention Gilles or Alesi. Currently the only guy i saw doing something really extraordinary in the rain was Max in Brasil.

 

I don't know who you're talking to because i have it on ignore, but from what i can see mut be someone who never saw a race before 2007 and who only looks at:
a) the final results in each race
b)only watches when cameraman films crapilton
ps: probably not b) because because he would have seen how useless elton when he didn't have the best car.

 

In my opinion, GOAT is Prost or Fangio (mainly because he didn't have as much 'formal' team structure we see nowadays), then

Hamilton #3
Schumacher #4
Lauda #5

 

In 2020 Leclerc has scored two podiums in a car which is midfield at best ...

 

Bet could convince Murray I was the F1 GOAT after he’s taken his morning pills

 

The only people who think Louise is a GOAT are his clueless instagram followers.

Clueless instagram moron - "Lewis da best ever bro! This guy is a boss..... He could drive around a track faster than an aeroplane!"

 

You may not like Hamilton for his personality, but you cannot dismiss his success on the track.

Best,

I would expect success from most drivers in that Mercedes, including Bottas.

 

Bottas has been "Ruben-nized"

 

Gotta love Murray , can't believe he is 96! Met him 38 years ago...@ Silverstone.

 

He was a character, and a true enthusiast.
A legend in his lifetime, IMO.
