I suppose an appropriate question to ask would be; what manner of heroics can restore Vettel's reputation at this point? A season like this will be hard to bounce back from and beating Charles will more likely impact Charles's reputation than Vettel's. Could Lewis bounce back from 2007, 2010 and 20...

I should probably post this here as it's more about Vettel than Hamilton, so generally speaking, given the sort of discourse which has been ongoing over recent weeks/months...

Which experts don't agree with one another, all of a sudden Wolff is an expert until he says something you don't agree with I would be guessing?

Given Hamilton is just a driver, and Ferrari have bigger problems than just their driver making silly mistakes, I’d say Hamilton wouldn’t have been able to win the title in the Ferrari. The car was just faster, slightly, during the first half of the season. The race strategy team does a great job o...

Dominated with a 0.1 % I've seen Gary Andersson slaughetered in here for a lot less than that.

Can't we just agree that a 49 page shows that car performance over the year thus far has been roughly equal? We can argue about the minutiae but I think it's pretty clear it would be possible to be leading the WDC at this point in a Ferrari or a Mercedes. I'd be happy to. I'd be even happier to agr...

Giving Mercedes the British GP is a bit dubious IMO. That's a very strong Hamilton track and a weak Vettel track and Ferrari looked quicker there all weekend. Yeah general opinion is that Hamilton stole the pole. Mercedes even gave that race to themselves. Hamilton may have stolen pole, but remembe...

Here we go again...Guess it's that time of year for the excuses and revisionism. You'd think that, in a year where Ferrari/Vettel so clearly bottled it, we wouldn't have to go through this.

I fully appreciate that, I'm just saying that if the forum was Hamilton biased then Hamilton winning would automatically ensure him the DoTD.

It's amazing how fuzz people's memories can be. Hamilton CLEARLY out-performed Vettel last season. This year has been even more clear but to say Vettel matched Hamilton's performance last season is inaccurate. And still "people" voted Vettel as the most "driver off the day" in 2017, so perhaps he d...

Look I understand that every F1 pundit wants this "Merc wins all titles" to be about something else than that PU again, but in the end in F1 you don't bring in the results without a car to back it up and in this case they started the season with a PU advantage and will end with it. There's more to ...

Ferrari is seen as being the faster car in Italy, as of date Ferrari still has the edge 10-7. Well I guess your guess is as good as anyone else. I would flip it around, probably 10-7 Merc by now.

Over the season Merc will likely edge Ferrari out but this don't cover Vettels mistakes however much you would like it too. Ferrari was the car to have before Singapore, even in Monza they got a front row and should have won the race. Again Vettel made a mistake and if they lead the first lap 1-2 t...

Vettel is very clear on that there is a lot going on behind that bystanders can not judge, engines turned down, team orders and very small differences. What happened to the short burst of Ferrari power we will probably never know. What's clear so far IMO is that Merc is the car to have and Ferrari h...

One thing people forget about Schumacher is that he made generally one big unforced error per season (outside of the years he was cruising to the title) even when he was quite experienced. 1994.
