    Tbf he had to do that most races in 2018, Bottas probably should of won about 5 races that season if it wasn't for bad luck and mostly team orders

    Bottas just isn't nearly good enough. It's just that simple. He can have his moments, but he just doesn't have consistency.

    I've got nothing against the bloke, he's just not in the same league as Hamilton.

    Love to see Verstappen or Leclerc as Hamiltons teammate, there the only 2 that really stand out this generation there's few other decent drivers but there next big 2.

    With team orders etc I would just like to see the cars more competitive with Merc. i.e. the 0.8 sec difference in quali needs to be 0.0 so any one of 3 or 4 could be on front row. I would like to see cars that are closely matched but differentiated by strengths and weaknesses, like one car better on fast corners another on slow etc. That way we might get some great battles where team orders don't play any part.
    If we had lewis and max or charles then Merc would favour lewis as he is the one that is going to brake the records and be in the history books along with the Merc name for providing him with the car.

    So just closer performance would be great for me.
