I suspect Hamilton would not have approved of Alonso for a team mate, but not because he would not be sure of trouncing him, but because of politics in the team and press. However, I am also fairly sure that had he complained to toto about it he would have been told 'tough luck, live with it'nzjrs wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 6:49 amI suspect Hamilton would have Vetoed Alonso and possibly Ricciardo too.JordanMugen wrote: ↑Thu Jun 17, 2021 6:40 am
Bizarre that Mercedes did not make more efforts to find a driver at least at the level of Button or Rosberg. For example Alonso or Ricciardo were available for 2019, perhaps they would perform worse than Button or Rosberg compared to Hamilton after all, but Mercedes did not even trial these drivers to find out!
