It's just that the W04 is such a FUGLY car.

Makes sense for a top engineer to follow the AS, MS and LH's to a new team who appreciate rare talent

It might be time to remind everyone what Paddy Lowe said about Lewis when he first arrived at McLaren


"He's tremendously good at controlling a car in oversteer. We saw that from the first moment he got in our car. We saw the data, and on every entry we could see there was a massive correction on the steering, and our normal drivers would have been bitching like hell that the car was undriveable, yet he didn't even pass comment. So with a driver like that, you're better equipped to push the boundaries to new levels. Speaking generically of that characteristic, a lot of the performance limit of a car is set by stability; if you can't hang on to it, you will have to introduce understeer in that zone. But if you have a driver better able to deal with oversteer in those zones that induce it, then you will have a less-understeery car elsewhere and therefore more total grip over the lap. The great drivers over the years - Senna, Schumacher, Mansell - have all had that ability. Like for like compared to other drivers, they want more front end."

I liked the Merc picture,good for being a wallpaper.

I don't think the same about his recent tattoo,nice but too big, and it's gonna stay there for the whole of his life

Lewis says there are some things on his new car they still have to work on, but somethings Are better than his old car. So that sounds very positive. :yes:

Someone tweeted it. Can't remember who, I was looking for it when I came across this. Lewis thinks Mercedes look after their drivers better than Mclaren . He's loving the new environment. More focus on driver performance.

I'll have another look for that other tweet.


Found it. It's in this BBC report

Opinion colors everything we see and hear. The guy's happy and that's important. I think given the resources and commitments being poured into Mercedes, it would be the story of the year if they're unable to make a solid step forward and like Lotus be able to fight for a podium most races.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the season pans out, but I think there are going to be certain circuits this year where the combination of an improved Mercedes and Hamilton behind the wheel will make it a very competitive car. Monaco and Montreal come to mind perhaps China. :yes:
