I like Nico, as I have stated in a previous post on this same thread, I reckon he is (nearly) as fast as Lewis when things are perfect. He has the Finnish speed and control that, without meaning to nationalistically stereotype, gives him a head start on others
The difference is that he is just not as hungry or determined as Lewis which is maybe a cultural thing. However as far as sheer balls or pace I would rate him second to Lewis in 1 lap winner takes all.
He is just not consistent or hungry or relentless as Lewis. Thats why its such a great pairing, he pushes Lewis by being there if Lewis slips up, and he massively improves his game by having Lewis as an example of sheer sporting excellence
Nico goes missing too often, not because he isnt as quick as Lewis or Seb, but because he is too smart to expend more energy that he thinks he needs to achieve
