      @@PulsingKrugotvoid Honda completely failed within the years before. The season before brawn gp hondas absoulutely blamed by final place 9 of 11 teams. That’s absolutely pitiful. To restructure that pile of garbage was one of the hardest jobs ever in f1, forcing Brawn and some others to work 12, 13 hours everyday to find solutions of financing, sponsoring, staff, innovating etc. despite having a very low budget. This is efficiency, Brawn didn’t need that much money to create a champion car. There is no one else in history of F1, combining technical brilliance and masterful management that epic. He and Michael were the base for that success, he is not only better than Wolff, but especially down to earth, whereas Wolff is bit arrogant due to success. Not to forget that him and Lauda had assassinated ross brawn

      @@Utopian_Futures i read somewhere that honda had been working on the car for a year or so. Just like the currect mercedes who worked for the future sacrificing instant success. Also how Ross Brawn flooded the money they had earlier on due to which later those years they had few success. They built a huge lead in the beginning which led them to the championship. Nonetheless what you say might be true because all I'm saying is from an article, I've started watching f1 from 2014😅. Also i was very young when Brawn won the championship.

    It's interesting how Toto speaks about the animosity between Nico and Lewis and how that affected the team but he still renewed Rosberg's contract for 3 years in 2016, before he retired.

      @Wayne Spooney Lewis is more emotional and wears his heart on his sleeve, I don't think he easily forgives. Nico on the other hand doesn't care much and will do whatever he thinks is necessary to achieve his goal - he can treat you like an enemy today and a friend tomorrow. Lewis will treat you like a friend but once you cross a line there's no way of rekindling a similar relationship. There will always be a wall.

    The way he talks about the Ring is how I feel about Sebring in the states. It has to keep it's bumps and character to be what it is. Same for that legendary piece of track in Germany.
