Yep, it’s always the other driver’s car. Not that the other driver did a great job, it’s their car. Hamilton just can’t seem to admit that other drivers are driving at a very high level.11-07-2023 23:36

It may have “appeared” to work in the simulator, but the simulator was not sophisticated enough to simulate porpoising so it took them down the wrong path. Old school knowledge of ground effects from years ago (Newey) helped. But they had other resources they could have used to corroborate the sim data- such all the talent in Indy car racing that’s perfected ground effects long ago too25-03-2023 14:13

Well, he cut Honda to take the Ferrari engine and now here he is - leading the Mothership. So we have to at least be impressed with his ability to make his own personal situation better01-03-2023 02:27

I think it’s much more complicated than that especially since engine budgets are different. For instance, Aston Martin has a road car division. Some of the “labor and parts” for the race car could’ve been charged to the Aston Martin Road car division. Mercedes makes engines for multiple teams. Some of the “labor and parts” used on their race car could’ve been charged to the engine department. Red Bull now makes their own engines so “labor and parts” for the race car could’ve been charged to the engine department. Maybe some (or a lot) of Newey’s hours were charged to the Oracle offshore racing boats he assisted with.04-10-2022 05:35
