Vettel fans might not like this, but I feel like Hamilton would be getting better results in that Ferrari than both drivers, I just think Ham has evolved to become such a solid and formidable driver

It's not a joke, there is a trophy for most polls ( introduced last season ) Rosberg won it last year and Ham this year

montyinct

I agree Pendulymeffect, with last year's cars you could overtake and so Ham can focus more on race pace and that's why I suspect with this year's cars it's very hard to overtake now we see Ham up the anti Come Saturday, never doubted his quali prowess. Just think Lewis is quiet a clever boy

Not sure if it related to this Thread but I saw that Mercedes Fired the strategy guy James Vowles, does anyone know anything about this? I read it on Wikipedia

I wouldn't say Hamilton coming out on top at the season end is done and dusted, let's not forget that he has a reputation for bad luck, so I wouldn't rule anything out and say let's wait and see. But I agree with most people that Hamilton is more likely to beat the other 3 based on his form and the ...

I think that Lewis would like to finish out his career with McLaren, and is waiting for the right time to make the move back. I never got the feeling that there was a strong connection between Nikki, Toto and Lewis, not like there was between Ron Denis and Lewis Hamilton. If McLaren come out of the...

If Alonso is as good as the F1 world thinks he is, then he doesn't need #1 status, just look at Seb

montyinct

Isn't it 33 wins? Anyway, I think he is one of the best on the grid right now, along with Alonso. How good is Hamilton is a question that I think can only be answered once he is done with f1, I think there is a lot to come from such a special driver but now that he has title #2 anything else would b...

Hamilton Bahrain was just epic, I will remember it for a long long time.
I actually think it is the best race in a the last few seasons, not just the fight between the 2 Merc guys but also the fight down the field

Woke up this morning checking the Internet and here in South Africa the local Mercedes have a video with a Nico Rosberg message, the link says something like : check out the message from F1 world champion Nico Rosberg. I don't wanna watch the race now, is there something fishy here or is it just a n...

It's all bullsh!t Monty those who can't even admit that it was Rosbergs fault are just wind up merchants. Try not to let it get to you. There is still plenty of fight left in this championship and the fact Red Bull are getting closer on track is a great thing. Because it gives Hamilton the chance o...

So now taking your direct title rival when he was leading doesn't even get a look? And then go and penalise Kevin Mag for pushing Alo off track. Now that is some consistency in the stewards decision. I don't believe anything Toto is saying cause it's all PR talk, he's the one running the show the ot...

I don't understand why Hamilton's stock gone down, he is doing an incredible job in the face of adversity. He made Austria quali mistake but Rosberg made more and Ham is only 11 points behind with DNF in first race and in Canada and starting at the back twist to come back and get a podium. If and th...

Do you guys believe the Bild story that Mercedes wants Vettel alongside Rosberg in 2016? http://sportbild.bild.de/formel-1/2014/ ... sport.html
Don't know if this is not the right thread for it, apologies

I'm hoping Nico will take it. I've been thrilled with his speed this season. Even though I enjoy seeing Hamilton do well, I am keen to see how he would handle being beaten to the title by a driver he probably considered before he joined Mercedes not at a WDC level. At the very least I'd like to see...

Not sure why, but i'm kind of expecting red bull to be closer in Barcelona, i think it takes away Mercedes advantage of long straights and high top speeds.

Does anybody know why Lewis gave Nico hold of the 1st player trophy for a short while? Was that gamemanship or was he simply saying feel how light this is as its made from recycled plastic isn't it? That was an interesting moment for me, maybe I am looking into it too much. I too wondered what that...

I just don't understand how the factory team can have engine problem when none of the costumer teams suffered, if anything you would expect the Merc team to be more reliable than the costumer teams. I did say in the race thread that they sabotaged him, but that was stupid. But it is looking very goo...

I think Hamilton did well to come to a new team and finish ahead of the other guy who has been around for a while there, when Button went to Mclaren in 2010 it was close but he didn't beat Hamilton, the only things Hamilton is still winning though are some poles on this forum.

I am a massive Lewis Hamilton fan but after watching today's grand prix, I have to admit that Sebastian Vettel is by far the best driver on the grid. The way he got past Lewis in less than 3 corners and nobody got within a mile of him from then, while his teammate couldn't get past Rosberg speaks v...
