Fisheruk Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 Good to see there are new drivers coming up with some real talent. Now this young driver could give Hamilton the challenge and support he needs if he were to join the Merc team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discobob Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 I imagine that Hamilton's agent will be getting an uncomfortable call today which will start with something like "So lets discuss this £41 mill that Lewis is wanting......"

I think that it will be Bottas who has to worry, Mercedes will just want the two best in their team. A few tens of million to pay Bottas off wouldn’t worry them when you see the sort of money winning the constructors championship is worth.

Indeed Bottas needs to be worried - but if they can save 10 million in the renegotiation with Hamilton as they are still to agree a new contract I believe - Billy Bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 I watched the highlights last night, it was cue the Benny hill music. Mercedes one and two, Russel on for the win. Something went on at Merc, they don't make mistakes like this, even the worst team in F1 don't cock up this badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B725 Posted December 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 I think he did an excellent job in Hameltons car concidering his racing boots had to be one size smaller than he wears normally so he could fit in. Bearing in mind he didn't have much time in the car and he did so well how much of Hameltons talent is actually the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that but as a mechanic in a Renault race team watched him in his formula Renault at a wet donning round the fosters loop 5 cars IIRC overtaken cleanly on lap 1 ! that talent gets you a drive in the top teams but you still have to deliver week in week out. His Manor mechanics all said he was F1 material then. regards Agriv8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Heron Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 Let's not forget Perez what a performance it looks like Albon out and Perez in at Redbull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
