    Russell and Hamilton are to an extent levelled up (as are all teams) by
    the very significant changes to the formula. It will take time to know
    how much this suits one driver in a team compared to another, so it's
    not worth speculating.

    Three races is not sufficient to know (for sure) their relative speeds, particularly given the porpoising challenges that seem particularly
    difficult for Mercedes right now.

    Frankly, even compared to some of your shit-stirring this is a pointless attempt to drum up controversy where none exists.

    So...you can explain why you can use wording that suggests that the
    opinions you are present are actual settled facts. They aren't.

    Let's see how the season unfolds before we declare on all of the
    drivers, not just Hamilton.

    Or is it just that you prefer trolling? If so, let me rate this: 0/10

    I don't think it's possible to know who the GOAT really is. We can only really judge drivers on how they do in their own age; would HAM be able to out-race old-tyme greats like Moss, Fangio, Hill, et al? How about drivers of more recent vintage like Piquet, Lauda, Senna, Prost? They drove different cars on different circuits, so it's only speculation in the end.

    Of course there's speculation.

    But there is a faction here (and elsewhere) that holds that Hamilton's
    success with Mercedes (and McLaren before them) means he must be the
    greatest.

    I'm just pointing out a flaw in their logic.

    ...which he hasn't been.

    You may be yet another person who doesn't get it, but I have nothing

    And when he has had those teammates, they WERE competitive, right?

    So if Hamilton is purported to be the GOAT isn't it an amazing
    coincidence that pretty much all of his teammates have been very nearly
    as good?

    how much this suits one driver in a team compared to another, so it's
    not worth speculating.

    But the very fact that you acknowledge that cars can suit particular
    driver's also acknowledges that for years the car could have been
    designed and developed to suit Hamilton.


    Three races is not sufficient to know (for sure) their relative speeds, particularly given the porpoising challenges that seem particularly

    With a whole bunch of folks here, it is apparently cast into the stone
    that must be in their heads that all of Hamilton's championships must
    mean he is the "greatest of all time!!!!!!"

    Sorry, but that is what has been presented here on NUMEROUS occasions.


    Let's see how the season unfolds before we declare on all of the
    drivers, not just Hamilton.

    I always enjoy how the season unfolds.

    I also enjoy pointing out the logical inconsistencies in a line of what
    can loosely be called "thought".

    I'm sure everybody else here would be surprised to read that. Not to
    mention be sceptical.

    Your envy/jealousy/whatever-it-is shines through.

    In what actual words?

    Be specific, Geoff.

    I have said that Hamilton is clearly one of the very best of the current
    crop of drivers.

    So put up or shut up.

    Can all of you who have proclaimed Hamilton the "Greatest of
    All Time!", please explain this to me?

    Thanks in advance.

    So another yet example of how unbiased you are. /s

    I am unbiased.

    I realize you can't understand that, but this has never been
    about me disliking Hamilton.

    Your continual unprovoked "unbiased" anti-Hamilton posts are just an >>>>> accident...

    Riiiiiiight!

    Quote any text I have ever written...

    ANYTHING AT ALL

    ...that is "anti-Hamilton".

    Your OP and just about any controversial decision involving Hamilton...
    and quite a few that weren't except in your tiny mind.

    How is pointing out that Russell is clearly as fast as Hamilton in any
    way "anti-Hamilton"?


    So why did they need to tell HAM not to pass RUS ? To save the hot car
    bits, yeah right ....

    Hamilton is the team number one.

    If they were telling him not to push, there was a reason.
