Unreal ....IMO the only redeeming aspect of this thread, is that it reveals the level of intellect of some posters, now it's about the Queen cutting off Hamilton and his fans heads....
And your point? Every team has a number one driver, and his sidekick. You really need to be careful as twisting what people say in order to get them embroiled in an argument is not gentlemanly behaviour. Do you find it fun or something? Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Rosberg was established at Mercedes when Hamilton arrived. Bottas joined Mercedes when Hamilton was already there. The conditions were not the same.
Are you saying bottas never won in the Mercedes, as I’m pretty sure he has won some races. Maybe you’ll have the stats to prove he hasn’t, or that he really hasn’t even though he did? Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Even though it comes from a pro British/ pro Hamilton publication, the assessment of this article is correct. https://www.autosport.com/f1/feature/8545/ferrari-selfsabotage-is-handing-2018-to-mercedes
So your post stating he hasn’t won is wrong. Okay, brilliant, thought I was going mad remembering wins for people that hadn’t Course, it means ANYONE could win in the Mercedes, not just Elton and Nick Rosberg then Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Yes, Mercedes have adopted the Ferrari MO to protect Lewis. In terms of pure speed the telemetry traces reveal it was Michael's driving technique which garnered him 2/10ths through a single corner such as Copse over Rubens. Michael was simply head and shoulders above all his team mates, with or without team orders. If Toto had hired Ricciardo I am certain he would give Lewis a tough challenge, as Nico did.
In sheer speed for qualifs, probably. But in a Wheel-to-Wheel situation, I don't think Ricciardo would be Superior to Hamilton who is really diabolic when it comes to dicing with an opponent. Close fighting and overtaking techniques have been Hamilton's trademarks, and made him the leader of the pack.. On one lap, Bottas, Ricciardo or even Vette can be as fast, if not faster, than Hamilton, as Rosberg was. But in a tight situation, my money is on Hamilton to win a duel.
I give my opinion, I didn't say it was a fact . Notice the "probably" "I think"; and "can be". If you want to bytch about all my posts,, go ahead ! It won't be long before you go back on ignore at this rate.
Yeah, he did an awesome job smashing massa off track through 2009, and of course, who could forget when he drove through Nico in Spain anding both their races and threatening to quit Mercedes unless they pinned it on Nico (yeah, the driver in front somehow stayed in a straight line yet was hit by the mug behind). Hehehehe he. Race craft the Elton way, there you have it folks, smash them out the way and don’t look back! Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Name a team mate of Micheal who was a F1 champion, better yet who even won a race other than Barechello
Massa, Irvine Herbert all won races. What’s your point? Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
Really? He didn’t have an f1 champ teammate as I remember? Was this a quiz? Do I only get a point for getting all the answers? Damn it. What a shame. Never mind, I just thought it was the usual nonsense making no point whatsoever You know, you really are a lovely chap to be taking the time to create a special Michael Schumacher quiz for us all. Thank you so much, a quiz in honour of the greatest ever driver!!!! Top man Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
My turn, what year was the race in France when Michael pitted four times, coining the phrase of Martin brundle ‘splash and dash’ to beat the mclarens that dominated qualifying? Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app
