Sure, the statistics bolster your opinion to an extent, but nowhere near as much as you think they do.

Swap Hamilton into a Haas...does he win? No. Better yet...swap him into a Williams...does he win? No.

Swap George Russell into a Mercedes...does he win? Yep, first time out.

You cannot say Hamilton is the Goat or better than unless you can reconcile the above discrepancy. Technology is better my friend. That's Hamilton's PRIMARY reason for winning.

Sucks to be all those other drivers who can't showcase talent. Therefore, the winner must be the best.

You can't argue the opposite that any other driver is as good as or better than Ham because they can't beat him over the course of a year, year after year after year.
