Sure mate , with luck on his side . HAM was very lucky to take it at Silverstone 1 ..He was running on square tires , while MAX was called to pit !
Otherwise it was Silverstone 1 + 2 for MAX !

Today is seriously just in fun, I was really hoping Max could mount a charge and make for an exciting finish.
Not kidding around, it was impressive to watch HAM not only save his tires for the late/mid race pit stop.........but extend his lead to where he could maintain first after it. Edit: Also glad Max harmlessly went into the sand trap and didn't get hurt. We all know those sudden tire punctures can lead to some really nasty accidents. There has obviously been enough tragedy at that track. Last edited by minn19; 11-02-2020 at 05:31 PM.. |

Seriously...it's just as exciting to watch HAM perform his tire magic as it was to watch MSC run quali laps at the end of the race in Magny-Cours to fit in another pit stop. Masterful.
We are watching the artwork of a grand master. It's a shame so many can't appreciate the artistry they are seeing. I have found that most people who have driven a car in anger appreciate HAM more than those who haven't. They know how hard it can be...alleged dominant car or not.

Andy Shovlin on Lewis Hamilton and car development.
They would be nowhere without HAM.

Wowie!
Thank you MK for posting this. The MB's engineer was very transparent about including or excluding HAM's feelings and observations that may not have been communicated in the language of an engineer, but communicated the deep nuances of vehicle dynamics and performance (or lack thereof).
All drivers provide input regarding car performance, but only a few have that innate (inborn, natural) ability to provide information that even a race engineer would not observe or dismiss. This is yet another reason why MB dominates the current F1 era. Dominant teams happen. Dominant drivers happen.

And the corollary to this is McLaren. They haven't won a race since HAM left.

VET's 4x consecutive WDC's and the brilliance of Adrian Newey's blown diffuser and other rocket-science created a dominant F1 car.

Same at McLaren but the race statistic is much more telling. RBR has won races with Max and RIC. McLaren lost with BUT, MAG, PER, ALO, STO, NOR and SAI. Quite a sad parade!! Lol!!

This is a great article that touches on arguably all aspects of sport, not just the sport of F1. Really love the narratives about all topics we see on this site and so many others.

Thank you -
Take a look at the thread entitled "why MB can call themselves one of the greatest"....I found it on the Official F1 website and it's a great read. It's posted in the same thread as Lewis vs Max.
