Having been a McLaren fan up to that point, I was exited that my countrymen was there, stuff was going to happen, and the team had promised Checo was their driver of the future and that they'd help in developing him. As the season went along, it was clear the car wasn't great but hey it's the car's fault, they said they're going to help him develop as a driver, he'll be fine. Then he was dropped and they spouted similar things about KMag. I was done with Mclaren at this point. Looking not as a fan of theirs at the dumpsterfire it was so sad...then the same thing happened when they brought in StoffelWaffle, saying how they where in it with them for the long run with him and that he was the future. When Norris was announced I was expecting the same crap from them, but I failed to take into account Norris was now headed to a very different Mclaren team, and I've loved how they've grown in the Brown/Siedl era. I'm back to being a fan of theirs...as well as now a fan of a certain Austrian drink company. To be fair, Checo at the Mclaren point was not the guy who's matured and become a figure that drives his team and is a nice guy liked by the team, but was known as a bit of a difficult driver, and he didn't make many friends in his McLaren era. Also he absolutely nuked his relationship with his then manager, a previous IndyCar/Cart title contender and Aston Martin LMS driver Adrian Fernandez, but he was still a kid who renounced the Ferrari Driver Academy to join McLaren only to end up with nothing at the end of 1 unsuccessful year. I can't relate to the pressure he was under, and can't hold it against him.

I'm 20 years old and have only recently got into F1, and for me Hamilton has always been the almost parodistic archetype of the champion. I remember when, as a kid, someone would talk to me about F1 and I would ask them who had won the race the answer was always a rather annoyed 'Hamilton, as always'. And being Italian it's quite a strange thing, but for me he really has always been the face of victory, the epitome not of the racing driver but of the winner. And, the more I learned about the sport and the more I found out about him, the more I realized how much this conception of mine really had substance and wasn't only a childish memory. Interlagos 2021 was undoubtedly the highlight though, there I really understood without a doubt that Hamilton was the best driver of the modern era, rivaled only by Shumy and Senna in the previous two eras I so hope I will be able to see him finally take his eighth title before he retires, he really deserves it

Probably a bit biased as an Alonso fan but I really can't see how Alonso can be lower than Vettel or Hamilton. Alonso didn't have a single year off in the 2010s. Consistently overperforming while at Ferrari, he was without a doubt the best driver in the 2010-13 period. Fighting Vettel at his peak in a greatly inferior car in 2012 talks for itself. He should have NEVER been in the fight for the title, NEVER. Talking of Vettel, yes he was absolutely insane in the 2010s but after the 2018 summer, his performances really dropped and regular mistakes started to creep in. Hence why I'd put him behind Alonso. Now, onto Lewis. What he has done at Mercedes is nothing short of incredible. As you said, he joined the team when it had already won a race but when they started to be dominant past 2014, he was always there. Rarely, have we ever seen someone that can deliver at such high level so consistently. The problem I have is the way he started the 2010s. 2010 was a good year for him. He was in the championship fight and did well. However, the next 2 years were rough, 2011 especially. Many mistakes, lots of crashes and poor performances. As said above, Alonso didn't have any year off. Easily the best driver in the first half of the decade, many great performances flew under the radar when he was at McLaren. The 2018 Azerbaijan GP is often forgotten but he went from barely making it to the pits with 2 punctured wheels, a heavily damaged floor to a P6. I'm sure there is other example but I can think of any other on top of my head Anyway, that's just my humble opinion =D

It's a stupid that people say that "Lewis Hamilton won because of his car" yet every F1 WDC's car was and has always been faster than the rest.

True. A few examples. Micheal the goat, Lewis only the car. Senna the goat, Lewis only the car. People forget why they were good and why they were put in good cars. Because they all were legends at racing who are worth paying 50 mil a year for.

Bottas doesn’t deserve to be below Checo let alone Sainz as well

I wish each VPN ad I watched didn't say you can access streaming services from other places in the world, it's pretty rare these days that a VPN will be able to access a streaming service these days. Take it from me, someone who works all around the world who has tried about half a dozen VPNs whilst trying furiously to connect to my streaming provider in Australia to watch F1. You can't even access BBC Iplayer anymore with a VPN. You shouldn't be selling VPNs saying they can do this when they just can't. Other than that, love your work, a great video as always.

Bottas in the honourable mentions and Sainz 10th is just unfair lol. It seems like you forgot how good he actually was when driving for Williams.

Agreed. Dani Ric and Bottas were rival in their junior career and their pace were even. No way Bottas would have had massive pace advantage to Dani Ric or vice versa when they went to F1, unless either Bottas or Dani Ric landed on a superior car to another. Another thing why is their pace remain even in F1 is Dani Ric and Bottas finished 3 and 4 at 2014 final standing. It was Bottas second F1 year. Both of them outscored the previous RBR golden boy Vettel. RBR sat 2nd on the final constructor standing and William was 3rd. Their final drivers standing were expected as RBR and Williams were the 2nd and 3rd cars of the time respectively.

Agree with the list but I'd say Lewis' lap at Hungary in the McLaren (unsure of year) was immense. RB were far quicker and he chucked that thing around. I remember his saying 'that's more than I thought I could do', or something like that and scoring pole. I'm an Alonso fan btw lol but Lewis is best driver of all time.....special!

Lmao! The bias is back, thanks for reminding me what country Daniel is from. Max more wins, podiums, head to head races and qualifying, he also scored more points than Daniel. He beat both Ricciardo and Sainz. Crashing into teammates? It was one crash lol, you really like to pretend that you aren't cherry picking. Ricciardo has been beaten by two teammates during that decade, drivers and team principals have voted Max as the second best driver behind Lewis from 2016 to 2020.

@@joshgee8714 Ricciardo got his 8 win last season, you are using his total stats over his whole career. In that decade(2010-2019) He had 7 wins and 29 podiums in 171 races. Because he got two podiums in 2020 with Renault and one podium last season with Mclaren and one win. Max in that decade(2010-2019) had 8 wins and 31 podiums in 102 races.
