You never EVER refer to a woman as "thick".

Are you saying it should not be referred to, and simply just implied?

Wow, Im surprised WB didnt get told off for being sexist.

Facts are facts. Women take being called "thick" as an insult;
but, a man would take it as being a compliment!

And that statement there Sagi confirms everything I thought about you Sagi.

Don't "they" say that a picture is worth a thousand words?
In a forum smileys can alleviate, if not obliterate ambiguity!

I always thought this was a good "smiley" to use on many occasions....

Given the logic espoused on this thread, I think we will all agree that Jenson Button is a better driver, than either Lewis or Fernando. After all, he has the only WDC since 2008 (other than Vettel of course), the only driver to beat Vettel over the course of a season since Seb joined RB, the only driver ever to beat Hamilton as a team-mate (and he didn't need some bogus FIA tie-breaker to do it), and he out-scored Hammy by 15 points over their 3 years together. To tell you the truth I am surprised, but you can't argue with the facts.

Given the logic espoused on this thread, according to the FIAs book, Lewis is a better driver than Button. He beat his TEAMMATE in the FIA standings 2 out of 3 years. Prizes are given out only to winners each year. FIA accounting is therefore on an ANNUAL basis. The total points over 3 years are irrelevant and not even listed by the FIA as a metric.
Button won the WDC most recently, again that is irrelevant as far as the FIA are concerned, the record will show that both have a WDC.

However as far as the FIA books go, the record will show that Lewis has more wins, podiums and poles in his much shorter career than Button.

The record will also show that the rookie Lewis beat Alonso 1/1 as TEAMMATES

Nope you cannot argue with the real facts, although some create their own metrics, I think its safe to say that those collated by the FIA are the international standard

*My Sig*

Don't do that! I spent 15 seconds looking at that post thinking "I didn't write that...."

Also that GIF is simply amazing, I would have used it whatever team or driver it was, just the fact it was Bottas was a nice extra.

As this is an Alonso thread and on the topic of Gifs.

Of course the facts are that Alonso has 2 WDC's, so that makes him twice as successful than either. The FIA does count WDC's doesn't it?

[racechick]

Well yes it does. But Lewis is just that tinsey, winsiest bit better. Well he was that tiniest winsiest bit better, but now he may have got a tinsey bit more better , because he was just a beginner when he beat Alonso.

You have to admire Alonso, he turned up in F1 and battled his way to a top team to win his championships. Where as other drivers are born with the proverbial silver spoon and turn up in a top team.

Or they have exceptional mind blowing talent and are grabbed early by a top team??

That is not true, Schumacher was banging around in sports cars

At least some of those silver spooned drivers have delivered masterful performances and championships so it's not as if their talent was misrepresented.
