Re: Hamilton and Vettel team mates.

17 out of Vettel's 47 wins have came not from pole position, and 8 of those times it was Hamilton on pole, so there's that... Now, do the amounts for Hamilton if you want to actually present a valid and balanced point. I will when someone in this thread claims that Hamilton doesn't win when not on ...

There are obviously a small number of undesirables who are simply uncomfortable with a black man being successful in traditionally white sport, but I think that's far from the whole story.

Generally when I've read about F1, Senna is so incredibly adored and considered obviously greater than Prost or even Schumacher, yet when I take a look at Prost-Senna I'm not even sure Senna is greater/better than Prost overall.

Hi All,
In the '89 season, did they have the removable steering wheels, and was there the rule back then that they had to replace the wheel if they stopped on track ?
