Max is at his own against the Merc’s, Checo is the 3e teammate who won’t make it.
Ohw...now its Perez its fault that Max didn't win..Max is at his own against the Merc’s, Checo is the 3e teammate who won’t make
Blah blah blah. What is it with people today? Dont get the result you want. It must be because of some injustice. Dont you ever think that the experience of 15 years 7 WDC , 100 poles and 98 victories has give Hamilton a greater skill set to bring to races. Also mind games are part of the sport. Max was playing mind games with his pass at turn 1. Max's time will come as long as he learns from his losses.
Nobody did say that, I just see that, you don’t see it seems.Ohw...now its Perez its fault that Max didn't win..
Max is not from the mind games he dont need itIts all about mind games in this business. Imposing your will over your opponent. Max does this by being aggressive when he has the opportunity and Lewis does it by re passing later. The best racers dont just have ability there are also mentally strong and intelligent. Poles and wins do matter today as racing is a business. The best teams put the best drivers in their cars. Why do you think Mercedes & Red Bull have Hamilton and Verstappen as their lead drivers? Because they are the best 2 drivers on the grid. I said Max should learn from his losses and also analyse what Lewis does differently or better than him when following. If you ever watch Motogp you will see Marquez watching his opponents trying to understand where they are better than he is on track.

you don't think it will be a laughable discussion, being fast alone is not enough to be the best.... You say that exactly right, that's why he also needs a good car. which was previously posted by Richard on this forum. Max has made the Redbull look better over the years than the car really is. not to mention his team mates .... Ric, Gasly, Albon and now Perez...You've said the obvious clearly and fairly.
You need to have a strong mind. You even see it on track when a car can't clearly overtake but will just move to the side to distract you.

The best and most competitive will go the extra mile and that's what it takes. I've seen Schumacher do what it takes and goes further.
If you want to play the hard man you might lose out to the smart man.

Schumacher had Hill and Villeneuve against him, then a couple of years of Hakkinen at his peak before both him and McLaren faded. If Schumacher had to fight Senna at his peak in an Adrian Newey car the way Verstappen has to fight Hamilton in a Mercedes now, the history books would look a bit different.You've said the obvious clearly and fairly.

One can't focus too much looking behind at the past when the reality is now.Schumacher had Hill and Villeneuve against him, then a couple of years of Hakkinen at his peak before both him and McLaren faded.
