Re: Could Michael Schumacher have won in the 2018 car?

I just think there's easily enough variables in F1 that not only could Schumacher have won or lost, but so could have a number of other drivers including Vettel. Which year of form do you take for the driver? When and where will the luck strike and who will it favour? This is a one of Hamilton's be...

Re: Is there any doubt anymore about Hamilton vs. Vettel?

The usual one sentence bereft of substantiating evidence. Do you mean that it's questionable that Ferrari have been behind Merc since 2012, that's simply a fact. They are still behind in both WDC and WCC, and IMO looks slower right now so I don't expect that to change this year. Behind in points th...

Re: Is there any doubt anymore about Hamilton vs. Vettel?

Last year Mercedes took 15 out of 20 pole positions. They had more races where they were faster, and dominated by bigger margins on their best tracks. In 12 of those 20 races Vettel got track position or starting ahead of Hamilton so it wasn't really an issue for him. Ferrari also started on pole o...

Re: Leclerc confirmed at Ferrari; Kimi returning to Sauber

Vettel did not deliberately under perform...no driver would ever do that. 2014 was a bit of an anomaly, like 2011 for Hamilton - mistakes, reliability issues and bad luck combine to result in a poor performance on the whole, and their teammates easily outperformed them. To be fair, we had glimpses ...

Re: [Merged] Mercedes v Ferrari v Red Bull - 2018 edition

One race where I completely disagree with the general consensus is Bahrain. I'm not sure why everyone thinks Ferrari had the best car that weekend. Mercedes had better race pace on one of the best circuits for overtaking. 1. Bottas was faster than Vettel on supersoft tyres and forced Ferrari to pit...
