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

The Ferrari is a bit behind the Merc and has so been since 2012, the pressure is always on a Ferrari driver, nothing unusual about that. I'd say that's very debatable It's not debatable, it's just plain false. Don't validate this guy with responses. It's debatable in a post-Trump world where facts ...

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

Hamilton can take a less than great car and pull a performance out of it . Not all the time but more often than is to be expected. Alonso the same. Vettel can not, and when he tries to overdrive and push too hard he can’t and screws up. He is just not as good as Alonso and Hamilton. If Alonso was i...

This is getting tiring dealing with you. So you've basically ignored my post (which debunks your argument) entirely? The irony is that the reason you want to claim that the Mercedes is quicker is that you want to make the claim that Hamilton is winning because of the car; which presumably suggests ...

Re: Leclerc confirmed at Ferrari; Kimi returning to Sauber

There's always a risk for any driver going up against someone new. If they get beaten by them, their reputation suffers (and the other's goes up). The size of that rise/fall is directly proportionate to how either driver was viewed before. Kimi had already taken a knock to his reputation, so if he'...

Hamilton was favorite at the start of 2018 and still is, with a clear #2 and the fastest or nearly fastest and 4 years of winning all titles it's not that easy to dethrone Mercedes. Takes an effort worthy of Alonso ending Ferrari winning in 2005. IMO Merc is favorite all the way until the reg changes
