Rosberg, however, thinks Button is too strict with Hamilton.
"That's nonsense! In my opinion Lewis did very well today." The former Mercedes driver looked at the onboard of Hamilton's lap and in it he didn't really see any moments or mistakes. According to Rosberg, there was simply not much more he could do. He also points to
Valtteri Bottas. The Finn was seven tenths slower and although a part of that can be attributed to an engine change, the difference is still very big.
Button believes that Verstappen is very confident after Saturday's qualifying.
"This gives Max confidence. Lewis wants a Max who is loud and gets frustrated with everyone conspiring against him. But now he is up against a Max who is relaxed because he has put the car on pole." Damon Hill finally added: "
What Max has achieved is incredible."
