2013, first half of the season, lewis beat nico 7 to 3. In the second half of the season, nico beat lewis 6 to 3. Nico had three retirements during the year to lewis' one, and all three of nico's retirements were in the first half of the season while lewis' sole retirement was in the second half of the season in japan. This obviously isn't a guarantee of how things will turn out in the 2nd half of the season. If history repeats itself then nico seems to have the edge for the title.
Just fun facts to look forward to for nico going into the summer break

I'm predicting Hamilton will qualify well this race but not finish first.

However, nico beat hamilton twice as much as hamilton beat him in the 2nd half so hopefully for nico's sake that's the only part that repeats itselfgeetface9 wrote:Out of curiosity I was just checking out how many times each mercedes driver beat their teammate in each half of the season last year.
