Re: Lewis doesn't want to share data with Bottas

In keeping with the theme of this thread, it seems Bottas does not want to share data with Hamilton. He doesn't think it's ideal. But does that make him.....what are some of the things Hamilton has been accused of.......oh yes....selfish....arrogant....afraid of his teammate......not a team player?...

Back on topic... In the abstract, I agree with Hamilton; drivers should succeed or fail based on their skill, not their ability to mimic each other. Realistically however, there's no way to put the genii back in the bottle, and there's also no question that data sharing leads to better drivers. Fro...

Would those that don't consider Hamilton one of the GOAT change that opinion if he won another 3 easy titles at Mercedes?

Re: Potential disciplinary action against Hamilton by Merced

In any case I don't think Lewis cares much beyond the tremendous success he's had with Mercedes power over the last 10 years. Everything else is semantics. I'm sure after he retires he will thank all the people responsible like Dennis, Brawn, Haug, Zetsche, Wolff, Lauda, Lowe and Vasseur,.
