    Lol, nice find on those statistics. After all that’s the only thing important as we all know ;)

    Correct.
    But I was talking about gap size with team mates.
    Forgot to mention Albon.

    Meanwhile Bottas was getting some poles

    Perez doing a decent job so far

    The reality that you refuse to see is that if Max had been Lewis’s teammate from 2018, Hamilton would still hold 4 world champion titles right now..

    Stats are what the “Lewis is the GOAT” believers use to promote that belief.

    We all know Lewis is good and a driver needs a good car to win races but no other driver—NO ONE—has ever had a car so dominant for so long that made raking up stats so easy.

    :) MAD magazine, LOL, in their spoof of “Grand Prix” summed up well the need for a car to win a race:

    You missed my point…I’m not saying that the Red Bull isn’t a great car, it is, but it’s not materially better, or in my opinion even better than the Mercedes. Max wrings every ounce of performance out of that car, which is what has made him competitive with the Mercedes package (Lewis and the car). Any other driver in that Red Bull wouldn’t be beating Lewis. They’ve had four different teammates and not one is regularly within a half second of Max. Maybe they’re something unique that Max has as a driving style that just meshes, but I don’t think I’m wrong on the facts. I’m not saying Max is a god, or that Lewis isn’t a great driver…just re-read the above, methinks it’s true.

    unfortunately apparently saying that Lewis isn't the greatest automatically translates to ''he sucks''. As does saying that Merc (factually) had the fastest car for 8 years, apparently translates to ''Lewis sucks''.

    I also fully agree with your statements RE Mercedes car and RBR car.
