It was determined pre-race that “can’t comment” would be code for “Shut up, Nico. Lewis is better than you – know your role!”

I was surprised at his sense of humor – he’s very witty for a sports figure.
I read (or maybe watched) an interview somewhere that said the people who work with him say he actually holds a lot of his humor back […]

I’m sure Nico expected that after the fiasco last race.

Look, no one is doubting LH. There is no double standard. Everyone knows both Vettel and LH are great drivers.
What I’m saying is that if you give an average driver the Merc car, you can expect them to do […]

That’s my point. I’m not saying LH’s a bad driver. He did decently in those RB years but Vettel still dominated because he had the better car.
Both Vettel and LH are great drivers, no one doubts that. But their […]

Typical click-bait headline!!!!!!!

If you’re so disappointed then you should ask for your money back…

Haha wow, calm down, champ. Take breather!
Look, I don’t think Rosberg has trouble at all – he dominates the field just like Hamilton. I think Hamilton is a better driver than him; that’s why Hamilton beats him. […]

@fluxsource being in a Merc doesn’t disqualify you from DOTW, it just handicaps you. A lot of drivers would win in that car if they had pole – it’s a testament to how superior the car is, not how much skill a […]

I think it’s actually quite a poor yardstick given all the advantages Hamilton has…

@jerseyf1 Hamilton is a great driver but he has a huge advantage by having the Merc car. He doesn’t have to fight through traffic, dirty air, etc. All he has to do is have a good start and defend.
Not saying […]

just because he won?

LH should be discounted because Merc cars are just so good. I don’t think anyone would argue with the fact that it’s easier for any driver to win when you have a clearly superior car.

Oh please – you can’t blame Verstappen for how Merc was going to react. That’s ridiculous. Lewis lost the race because of his team’s actions; everyone else handled the crash just fine…

It’s easier just to blame him for being young ;)

Verstappen crashed into Grosjean. There’s cloudiness around who’s at fault but c’mon, who cares? This is hardly the most dramatic thing that’s happened in F1…

The media drums up drama for sure but when he says “there’s no answer” to a fairly standard question about Portier – he’s not doing himself any favors.
Everyone knows it was odd and Merc are not releasing the […]

I wouldn’t say it’s well spoken or dignified. It’s a standard media response that you hear in every sport.

Yeah, it’s all PR. None of the driver interviews are particularly telling of what they actually think… except for maybe Kimi’s. I’m pretty sure he has a very very thin filter.

Couldn’t agree more, @DaveW
