@Zoue I don't think I used the word "obvious" for this year. This year and last has changed nothing on the opinion I held about Hamilton. For me 2012 is the best he has driven to date, but you can not blame him if the (teams)competition these 2 years have not been that strong. He fights against what...

@Zoue Hamilton is not cruising at the front with Rosberg in 8th place. He has to be fast to beat him. Which races in these 2 years are you talking about? Hungary this year was very bad yes.. But it can happen(did you forget Sato overtake on Alonso in 2007 in Canada? or Alonso last year race in Mona...

Ferrari would have won more if they had Hamilton or Vettel at the wheel in the period 2010 - 2015 and I think with time things will become clearer for the majority. Unlike Hamilton in 2011 and Vettel in 2014, Alonso never had a comical season at Ferrari where he embarrassed himself weekend after we...

That Voodoo stuff didn't work..
#3 WDC would be nice to clinch at Austin and next year #1 WDC for Nico would not be bad. I actually like the guy and they are friends for life.
With a well engineered DNF streak for Hamilton it wil be possible..

I don't get what's that false "political correctness" even from fans of Hamilton to not say it or when saying it adding Alonso and Vettel along as if like to not abuse someone's feelings, when that's really ridiculous at the moment especially for Alonso (sadly), as even other teams, drivers and tea...

I don't remember a single thread/poll here or many posts where people said Hamilton is the best driver(not even his fans here). 8O Is it that surprising a statement? Alonso has topped all the 'best driver' polls I have seen on this forum over the past few years. I didn't see much widespread agreeme...

Never denied that Vettel and especially Hamilton had a lot more misfortunes than Alonso in 2012. However, the real question remains: How much difference was there in the competitiveness of the cars? Red Bull 8 pole positions 3 front row lockouts 7 victories 2182 kilometers in the lead McLaren 8 pol...

A complete speculation in your opinion regarding a driver who never proved to be in the top tier of F1, is hardly a justifiable basis for discounting Lewis's performance in 2008. Importantly: As a driver, it's not how many mistakes you make in comparison to your other season's that important, its m...

The cars were even. I just love it when someone rewrites history because Kimi and Massa aren't driving as well as they did 7 years ago so that automatically means that the Ferrari was a better car. It's blinkered to think that both Massa and Raikkonen have plunged off the cliff after 2008. It defie...

Quite interesting given it involves my estimation of how good a driver is, and also trying to gauge the average impression of that driver. Lewis Hamilton - overrated - I'm a Hamilton fan in many ways, and I rate him amongst the best in the current field. But I do sometimes feel like people make him...

To answer OP, 1. Verstappen : there is something that really annoys me with this driver. I have many times had the impression that he(his advisors) went purposely to top the FP1/FP2 sheet as publicity stunts, then comes qualifying and he is behind Sainz or not that far ahead. His Tororosso is reliab...

An old Button seems to handle him well. Button has beaten him once when both have had no problems. It's 4-1 to Fernando in the races. If that's your definition of "handle him well" then you must think Rosberg is "handling" Hamilton pretty well. I have always wondered if you have put the wrong pic a...

2012 "hype" happened because of McLaren incompetence and reliability , RedBull reliabitlity problems, and Pirelli tyre lottery. Just think about the 2012's Malaysian GP where Perez was in 2nd place and inches away from his 1st F1 win, Maldonado 1st win in Spain 2012 to see that it was surely not a "...

Lewis doesn't get enough credit for his pace. Vettel is stated to be as fast as him, but why don't we question his performance against Ricciardo? DannyRicky out drove him last season. It was the first tine we've seen him against someone not named Webber, who was unable to do much in that dominant R...

Imagine you're Fernando Alonso. You are a 2-time WDC and widely considered to be the best all around driver in the world (or at worst second best). You have been courted by McLaren and Honda during the 2014 season; a season in which your current team (Ferrari) were absolutely nowhere and way down o...

I just would like people to show more respect to the current champions Hamilton and Vettel and to open their eyes and learn to read the writing on the wall. You want others to show respect to Vettel and Hamilton yet your posting history on this forum has been one of atrocious negativity towards Alo...

You all spend your days to do exactly the same with Alonso believing he is in his own league. Nope, sorry, try again. My sympathies for Hamilton are far higher than those for Alonso and I do not spend my days doing exactly the same with him. I don't know what you mean by sympathy.. I for example do...

Currently it's obvious that Hamilton is in a league of his own. If we accept tier 1 for the max and the higher the tier the lower the quality then: Tier 1: Hamilton Tier 1.5: Vettel, Alonso I have no idea how this is obvious. Except to hardcore Hamilton-fans maybe :) Even I'm not that hardcore :lol...

The thing I find interesting when people talk about Verstappen is the lack of the word SPEED... something even more important than dog fight skills if you want to win multiple WDCs with front running cars. I keep hearing the excuse that he doesn't know this track or the other, but in 2007 a rookie g...

I think Alonso's thread is a better place to write the best of the best stuff and fantasy WDCs.
