Mercedes got cocky. Mercedes took lewis for granted. No other words

Regardless of what kind of a person Lewis is, he is one of the best drivers of all time. Team needs to cop on!

[@user-vn8ep4ng55]

Yep but toto always valued Hamilton heavily

[@fixxa6455]

You need to win races also in bad times and in bad cars. Lewis complains when the car is not perfect and simply doesnt perform last years when the car is not championsworthy

[@sauv95]

​@fixxa6455 If you follow Merc alil more, he mentions how they didn't listen to him on certain areas that needed improvements to keep them in the running. They were wrong and he was right. Hamilton does like to take gambles on some of his setups but when a 6 time Merc champion speaks, you listen. Personally, I think they're designing cars that favors George's style of driving. Your boys did the same to Riccardo back in the day. Yes, the cars "look" similar but each is spec for the most part to favor one drivers style of racing. Bottas and Ham just worked better together.

[@quigglyz]

Mercedes is the reason Lewis is successful. NOT the other way around.

[@Darkforce2543]

I can clear this up . The team did show up but they showed up late and there was no space as the F1 VIP fans had been let in and took the space the Team should have took . On top of that Georges side of the garage where scrabbling to get Georges car back and Lewis car was picked for the random top 10 post race inspection at the Weybridge so lewis team had to prep the car for the inspection

[@danilo_9035]

I think Lewis always wanted to race for Ferrari but he wasn't going to leave Mercedes if he was winning every season, that would've been a stupid decision. Instead, he waited until he had a bad car and still waited another year to make sure Mercedes wasn't getting good again. I think this makes sense because he always said Ferrari was legendary and as Vettel said once, everybody is a Ferrari fan.

[@Wozzabunnyofficial_37]

Even if you say your not, everybody is a ferrari fan

[@truenme]

Or hes actually loyal, he did the same with Mclaren aswell and there was no hint at him leaving until the deal was done. Ultimately he would have been fine to court other teams he thinks can win him an 8th title but he kept it out of the public eye until it was done, as opposed to the likes of Senna who openly courted WIlliams for years while racing for other teams. Its actually crazy to think that he could be on 9 title if certain stewards calls were consistent at Mclaren and Mercedes.

[@1greenMitsi]

so you think schumacher was stupid to leave benetton after 2 championships and go to Ferrari who hadnt won in 20 in years and win another 5 with them? Im no Schumacher fan but that was pretty brave of him

[@danilo_9035]

@@1greenMitsi No, that was brave, but I wasn't there at the time and don't know how was Ferrari doing each year, maybe he knew something about Ferrari that we didn't, like when Hamilton changed to Mercedes because Lauda told him it was going to be the best car. I don't know if he just did it because he liked Ferrari or was for other reason.

[@1greenMitsi]

@@danilo_9035 what part of not winning a title in 16 years do you not understand? You werent there and you dont know much about F1 in general, thats for sure

[@702TifosiGambler]

Hamilton relatively speaking has very good timing whether it's deciding when to pit under rain, or changing teams. Now there's some luck as he wanted to join RB for 13, that could've changed his career forever in a not so good way. Will this move to Ferrari pay off idk but clearly he saw their 26 plan and believes he can contend for a WDC. Win 3 WDC for 3 different teams, one for Ferrari, 8x WDC or more would make him the GOAT without debate. He's chasing Legacy now and I understand the move plus Ferrari granted him ambassador role after racing which MB wouldn't thats the biggest head scratcher.

Last year was a sh*t show, george and the team cost lewis multiple race wins and podium places all in the bid to keep george happy. George went wide in spa last year during quali but proceeded to block lewis costing him a potential pole but definitely podium. Singapore george cost lewis a win and merc said they didn't wanna give team orders inorder to keep george happy. Zandvort they made lewis keep going on slicks despite rain getting heavier, they had that race in the bag. There is no way around it, merc hang out lewis to dry with most of their strategy calls last year. They used him in 2022 and have proceeded to disrespect him since. Refusing to call team orders for your most decorated driver in a bid to keep a junior driver is disrespect of the highest degree.

[@bdaddy8552]

​​@@delcio2012. People have to stop making a big deal out of race/ the color of a persons skin. Drivers and teams need to be people, not a color. The bottom line is FIA messed with Lewis. It's the politicking of the business. He won more than they wanted him to. It was to their financial advantage to find new blood to keep the sport watchable. People sometimes disagree about how Max is or is not a great driver. I'm a Hamilton fan and I think Max is one of the best. What I don't understand is how he is able to pass everybody. I can hear people talk about how he goes through corners all day long. But, no matter where he is in the pack he's able to pass everyone. Not just in the corners, but in the straightaways as easily as he chooses. I don't see anybody else passing with the same power to push when passing. I believe that the FIA allows Red Bull whatever it is that gives that car an unfair advantage over the entire grid. Anywhere anytime. No other car can do that. There are plenty of great drivers with lesser cars. I see none of them moving through the field with the ease that the Red Bull car does when it competes, one-on-one with the car in front of it.

[@ZAH33D]

​​​@@bdaddy8552 race is a pretty big factor man. I remember when Lewis was tied with Schumacher's win records in 2020 and the FIA kept throwing bullshit penalties towards him to reign him down and keep him from his 92nd victory. They couldn't stand a black man getting the records so they did the only thing they could, and that was letting the other guy win. The other guy just happened to be Verstappen.
