The car is instrumental in providing advantages to the team but there is no question that driver talent is required to maximise performance and Lewis is clearly a talented driver. And in reality, all drivers are petulant or angry when things go awry during a race so he is no different there.
It just feels like this year with the car underperforming & Russell excelling, there is a somewhat disconnected, dispirited attitude to Hamilton (def earlier in the season) and the team & Toto are continually having to pander to him with grovelling messages about how sorry they are etc. Just my view but I guess as I'm not a Lewis fan, I'm biased
On a side note, unpopular opinion incoming...
I also dislike Ricciardo. Immensely. The fact he refers to himself as honey badger. Gah! Do people even know what a honey badger is?! Fearless, vicious, aggressive, feared by others... Because I wouldn't class goofster Ricciardo as one. And who comes up with their own nickname anyway? Reminds me of a guy I met travelling who decided to introduce himself as "Spitzy" as he'd decided to rebrand himself whilst on a gap year
I digress, back to himself... The drinking from the shoe. Christ. Somewhat amusing first time, good job he wasn't winning many races seeing as the shoe quickly became part of his cool, fun personality. And don't even get me started about when people praise him as a supposed sex symbol
Ok, I know all thats harsh but I don't get the adulation for him and couldn't contain it any longer!
*sees myself out the door, deleting Tattle account on the way*
🤍a lot of the names and stuff go completely over my head also
