Re: Hamilton: Red Bull have a clear No.1 & 2, always have

So either Bernie lies or Lewis? Hmmm 8O Hmm. Yes there is that. As I`ve already jumped off the fence on this one I`ll stick my neck out and say I believe Hammy. His side of it sounds more plausable. particularly in the light of my original point. Bernie, I think, just likes to say things for effect...

Re: Angry-looking Lewis Hamilton

I think we can safely say, judging from Brawn's past record with Ferrari, that he only wants his star driver to win. Don't be surprised if after Race 5 or 6, Nico is told to let Lewis pass after the last pit stop. The writing is on the wall. Lewis was brought in to win the title, with Nico playing ...

Re: McLaren pace

Excellent job by both Mclaren and Button who (after watching the replay) i thought was capable of doing a Kimi today and could have win the race with 1 less pitstop if RBR didn't up their pace. He certainly would have passed Lewis. Mclaren did well with this car and that is only 2 weeks in! i think...

Re: Lewis is Mercedes team leader

At the end of the day, we don't know why these team orders were issued. Nico clearly doesn't think Lewis has No. 1 status and, if the comments reported by Lewis are true, neither does Lewis. It could well be that Merc have a 'no overtaking after final pitstops' policy and decided to enforce it, eve...
