More and more I believe that most of the drivers like Russell and Norris are brilliantly quick in an F1 car, but I have doubt about their pure racing skills and I think it is generation inherent. George and Lando are probably both from wealthy families too and all doors have been opened for them growing up, they never learned to fight. Remember George couldn't do the fight with Max without involving Toto. Max learned to open these doors by himself, the same for Lewis. They are the real deal.
Although I’m a Max fan I believe that Lewis hasn’t lost it!! Yes, he’s in the autumn of his career but he will be extra motivated in the Ferrari and will give more than he did(200%) which equals his prime performance. I think he will be a serious contender in 2025. I can’t believe that he will give up…on the contrary…in this new car he will get wings(not a red bull campaign 🤣)….and I think he will be a challenge for Charles at least. I hope at least that Max and Lewis will have a fight again in 2025….may the best man win💪🏽💪
Safak, such a legend. And far too kind btw. Thank you for the continued support. 🍻 And I echo your sentiments, not least the hopes for a Max Vs Lewis PT II. That would be truly incredible! 😍
Normally max has to much talent even for Lewis.But Lewis will drives in a much better car. 2026 I guess max go to Mercedes or take a sabbatical or stopped definitely.😢
I dont know if you have heard this cameron, but it's important. Because lewis was leaving to go to italy, Mercedes were filling the his tires with pesto instead of air, his gearbox with spagetti, and his replaced his engine oil with olive oil. They even changed his break disks for pizzas and filled his water bottle with peroni. How could you expect him to beat George under those conditions??!!!
A GREAT BALANCED POST. This is not Rugby or football, age is not as much of a factor, SLH has been fighting against the Mercedes machine and plans of 2024, he will obviously fail, but underestimate SLH in a team that will put him 1st in 2025 is a mistake. In 2024 Q1 Q2 Q3 was decided by the team (with an agenda) and not based the drivers true capabilities.... Look, Mercedes had to do this, and make SLH look mediocre to protect their brand and the new No1 driver. SLH is a pioneer in fitness and Skill set, so do not underestimate a GOAT. I THINK THIS CHANNEL IS THE WAY FORWARD, GREAT POST
I think that a F1 driver needs a even better condition than a rugby or football player! Ninety minutes constantly being thrown around and high G forces and no rest in between!
In the old days of F1 there were more drivers over 40 winning a Grand Prix. The oldest driver had the age of 53. One year later he died. Gladiators on wheels.
@ i never said they didnt or that it means less. Life itself didnt hold the value as it does today. Let’s not pretend all my statements are not true to prove a weak tangental point.
@@pranc236 Reflexes did count. Jackie Stewart was a skeet shooting champion; perhaps why he was so quick in an F1 car. Driving karts also requires great reflexes and they’re ‘slow’ as you would say. Saying ‘life didn’t hold the same value’ when men drove ‘slower’ cars is even more stupid than your first post. I feel sorry for you 🥲
Campo! You are the SHIT my BROTHER! I wish I could put to words how flipping AWESOME it is to witness TWO of my BROTHERS of Colour spew such hard core HIGH QUALITY commentary. As a Black South African I am beyond proud. How awesome it is for my 11year old boy and my 8year old girl to just have as NORMAL you two gurus spewing god-tier magic! Campo, LOVE YOU MAN! ❤❤❤
I think k you both made a great point in the beginning about how the Merc drivers have been setting up their cars. George seeing quali as a strength of his he sets his car up for bias toward one lap pace, he then qualifies well but goes straight backwards almost everytime near as makes no difference, Lewis on the other hand must set up for race pace and if he qualifies terribly where does he end up at the checkered flag? Either on the beam wing of one GR or ahead of him. Lewis hasn't lost it, Mercedes has. 2021 was a reckoning for Merc. First step in recovery is recognition of an issue and have they done that? I don't think so. Good luck to Kimi 🙏
merc just favored russell more than lewis because he was leaving the team. w15 car was inconsistent. russell and charles will never achieve half of what Lewis has done.
If Ferrari are in a championship fight Lewis will be there. There might be faster drivers around for a lap or a race here or there. But I still think Max and Lewis are in a league of their own in consistency when it counts.
We should talk more about Chaarl Leclergh. He's been on such a stable trajectory getting better and better every year. 2025 might be his year. And no one, except the teamLH cult, will have a problem with that.
Great discussion. The questions are: 1) is Hamilton aware of what he needs to change (not break late and wider corners) , 2) Is he motivated to make the change (it will take him so much energy at 40 years to change his stripe), and 3) Can he change his stripes. He has the potential to be better than Max/Leclerc (break earlier in qualifying but later in race) but can he change at 40. I think his challenge is going to be - I am already 7 times champion, this is tiring, can I put 100% in every race, and when things go wrong can I manage my mood (and he is moody). 27 years olds looking to prove something is far easier than 40 year old, already rich and having an excuse (age) going to be on mood 100% of the time. In addition, Lando, Pastry, Leclerc, Hamilton are going to split points. I would bet on Lando (best car), Max, and then Leclerc over Hamilton.
Cam you just seem like a hater when it comes to Lewis these days. When you talk about Lewis you blame him for the lack of performance... even though there's alot of evidence that show Toto could have be measing with Lewis car. But when it comes to Fernando i hardly ever hearvyou say hes pasted it when you talk about him
Truth will come out of conversations where you test your theories just like I'm doing here with Shez. The qualifying theory I had is an example of that. I can't just sit there and spoon Lewis with the rest of em. Not my style. But don't let me stop you Jeff
Why would Sir Lewis change his style to develop a car he will have to compete against. Why would Petronas prioritize Sir Lewis over George. They cancel each other out. 2025. Would Petronas gain more with priorizing Lewis and help develop their car. That was a call that the team made, so they can live with that decision. Will MB feel the same if their season is not successful in 2025.
Every driver will lose it at some point. It’s not about fitness or reaction times it’s about your brains ability to adapt constantly. That declines from your 30s and it’s why everyone ultimately goes through a decline
Max is a hell of a driver, not gonna deny that but people need to stop with this max makes the difference the first couple races of the season. He won by more than 20 seconds when the car was no longer the best and Newey stop having any input he was only able to win 2 races that’s the same amount as George and Lewis won in a donkey of a car I don’t know, but I think Max is gonna be in a lot of trouble in 2025 if McLaren can stop messing up and Ferrari give Charles and Lewis a car and both drive to the best of their abilities we will see
Here is an easy explanation for the contrast between 2021 and 2022. In 2021 Hamilton had the best car of the grid and a very weak teammate in Bottas. In 2022 Hamilton no longer had the best car and a decent driver as a teammate in Russell. It's a bit like the contrast between 2016 and 2017 in reverse. Hamilton's innate ability didn't suddenly spike at the start of 2017, he just no longer had a decent teammate to content with.
@@Warlun888 Extremely weak, struggling against a rookie driver like Zhou who was on par with Mazepin. Bottas only looked decent against Massa when Massa was over a second per lap away from Alonso. Even Stroll as a rookie looked decent against Massa. Bottas was always mediocre in qualifying and one of the worst F1 drivers on Sunday.
All this talk, I'll give you reason for Lewis' downfall in ONE WORD, ADAPTABILITY, or lack thereof. He couldn't ever adapt to the new reg cars. Max and Charles also prefer pointy front end car, BUT they were still able to adapt to new regs, even though they too clearly weren't comfortable. Lewis never did. Now, more than four years later, his age too is knocking on the door, and that will ONLY make it harder for him to ever adapt. As simple as that, and NO, Lewis WILL NOT finish ahead of Charles.
Yes I would say 2009. The McLaren was slow in development in the current years but they didn't manage to win regularly at that time. But Lewis always got the best out the car.
Cameron i love your show. But remember the words coming out of your mouth lol Lewis will bet Goerge in every race!! But i listen to just smile and you all will eat your words when Lewis win his ith!!
What is like is we may not agree but you be fare to what other feel and think Not!!!!! I love when u come to say or about to apologize and stop and say Not!!! Lolol😅
But 1 thing is for sure you think Max is really good lol but seem pretty normal after they got caught cheating. But Sir Lewis will come like the Lady In Red to show u what he will make that Red Ferrari make it's mark once again!!
interesting how it is celebrated that Max said this that a video about it has to be made. What this means, is this prime LH was beaten 2 seasons out of 3 by Russell, Prime LH finished 7th last season.
well if he didnt lose it he'll have to show it at Ferrari this season . On the evidence we had from last season , it looks like he lost it , it's up to him to show the whole world that he still has it. Our opinion doesnt matter but the timer never lies .
LH is losing it. His race pace not so much. But raw speed, I mean raw speed, max reflexes, under the extreme pressure. He has lost a good bit of that long term mental chess.
You can qualify poorly and make up for up in an era when your engine and car are 1s lap faster than the rest of the field…you csnt do it when your car is more or less on par with the others under a budget cap with a STACKED driver line up. Yes, LH is not the god-tier driver his PR team propagandized him to be.
You can’t argue that because George is a killer qualifier he will beat LH, the statistically best qualifier of all time, most of the time. LH will not beat Charles. I’d love to be wrong
@@Ghostvolt I agree with you. It is sad to admit. However his raw race pace. Were he can manage his mental output. He will get Charles. Or he just cannot get the grip of these car setups. We will see.
While the odds and facts are against Hamilton. Hamilton has always been the one to do the impossible, be that one percent. For that I have hope but from an objective stand point the chances are low.
I wish I could be part of one of these public chats about Lewis. So many people are trying to explain something that they do not understand AT ALL! How is it that we have had 18 years to understand Lewis and we STILL miss it completely. We are trying judge the greatest of all time based on three years. And though we were blatantly given the answers, we still get it wrong. In 2022, Merc made their worse car ever. In 2023 Lewis beat George, in 2024 Lewis struggled again. In ALL three years, Mercedes refused to give Lewis what he wants and in al three years, NEITHER of the Merc drivers came close to winning the championship. So HOW and WHY have we arrived at the point where we think that Lewis is no longer the best?? Which driver has ever thrived without at least getting what they need? Lewis is forced to use Brembo, which he does not like, the car is not balanced like he likes and they refused to listen to literally any of the advise he gives them. Seriously. But over the three years...he still outscored George. We need to stop. I fully expect Lewis to systematically sisassemble Charles IF...Ferrari gives him most, if not all, of what he needs.
Why do all Lewis fans have a the temper fit, just cause now the best driver isnt a Brit ! All of Hammys fans hearts got broke, He lost because his team went WOKE !! Just like with all the 🇬🇧commentators at SKY , Us true F1 fans dont want to hear them cry !! AD21 is over and done !! The record books show the better driver won !!
More and more I believe that most of the drivers like Russell and Norris are brilliantly quick in an F1 car, but I have doubt about their pure racing skills and I think it is generation inherent.
