Nico got his arse handed to him today, without Lewis' info as a reference during the race he settled into his comfort zone - between 0.5 - 3 seconds slower a lap the whole race.
I was almost about to agree with you until this complete bullpoo flowed forth. Some people just can't help it
Hamilton passed Rosberg on lap 29. Ten laps later, shortly after taking on a fresh set of intermediate rubber, he set the fastest lap of the race.
From then on he could afford to back off over the following laps, yet still he pulled away from his team mate at up to a second per lap. Hamilton extended his lead over Rosberg by a further ten seconds, even as the rain returned and track conditions began to deteriorate.
Not reading any complaints about that old gravel trap at turn 1 being paved.

None needed.
Such fun...
......18 points is better than 0.

.......along with the likelihood that he quit pushing as hard since he knew there wasn't anybody else in striking distance.....
And thats the difference between Nico and Our Lewis©. Lewis would of done all he could to keep up / or take the place back. Especially in those conditions where lead driver could easily of gone into a corner too deep, and given the other a chance to take advantage....
eh, you can have " Our Lewis©" cuz 18 points is better than 0. Not reading any complaints about that old gravel trap at turn 1 being paved.
I'd disagree and say rosberg maintained the gap until he had his oversteer issues,
And I'm even going to go as far as to say that if it were a dry race rosberg would have won out right, fair and square.

Geet...he might have a point since Hamilton was just sitting behind Rosberg keeping the gap at 1.5-2s....until the overtake.
From there, it was indeed 0.5-3s quicker until the end.
Suffice to say, Hamilton had the pace all along, but chose to use it when he needed to.
I'd disagree and say rosberg maintained the gap until he had his oversteer issues, and hamilton didn't make any headway into rosberg past 0.9 sec until DRS opened. Ya ya, I know how the aero gets $#@!*& being close behind somebody. Lewis was fighting tooth and nail to get those precious tenths necessary for his DRS to work. Once he got past, rosberg's lack of pace was just exacerbated by hamilton being in clean air and no spray along with the likelihood that he quit pushing as hard since he knew there wasn't anybody else in striking distance. But anyway, until rosberg started suffering from oversteer, hamilton couldn't break +1.2 sec. And I'm even going to go as far as to say that if it were a dry race rosberg would have won out right, fair and square. With the offs that hamilton had this weekend and the relatively clean weekend rosberg had, he'd have just kept his head down and handled business. He didn't make any of the mistakes under pressure yesterday like he has in the past this year

Now you're just being dumb. The mentality changes when we have gravel traps paved, if there was no escape maybe OUR LEWIS might've thought twice before pushing hard into that corner in the first place. Let's not make this about IFS......Rosberg got owned yet again when it mattered, you gotta deal with it mate.

Sounds like you having a Ferrari moment there geet! Did you actually watch this race?
When Lewis was behind he was quicker, when he overtook he was much faster after the pit stop and before the stutil crash he pulled a gap of 15 seconds before slowing for the yellows.
Maybe you can work out the maths on that?

You should be more concerned about asking for a pocket money rise to cover the £50 you will be paying out for a previous 'Ferrari' moment. Let's work the maths on that one - Nico has to out score Lewis by 10 points each of the last 4 races for you to win the bet - Nico to win with Lewis third EVERY RACE - that's how much you know about F1
Still waiting for the day Nico overtakes Lewis on track without proving "any points".
