2017 Championship Permutations

[Schuttelberg]

Yeah rosberg did , which makes it even more impressive on Lewis. I remember nearly all the times the 2 went wheel to wheel in 2013-2016 Lewis come out on top nearly always. Like what has happened with Vettel and Lewis this year

Oh absolutely! Lewis has pasted Sebastian at wheel to wheel battles this year.

As far as my memory goes, that's happened twice this season, both at Spain and each won one of those battles. In the first, Seb had the line and squeezed Lewis while in the second Lewis used the DRS to pass Seb. In each of those occasions, both drivers did the max that they could.

But of course, you have a different view of this season than us.

I swear, some people over here as so deluded it's kind of unbelievable.

Yet nother vettel brinfade that will cost him again.. Clattering into stroll surely will cost him a gearbox!

Yes, that was totally his fault! I mean what the hell was he doing?

You know people in this topic are brain faded when they say it was vettel's fault for turning left in a left hander. Especially in such a manner as if it's 100% his fault.

He buzzed a muppet who bought a drive, and then needed a lift home.

Vettel's biggest mistake this year happened at Australia was when he won the race and made it quite clear that he would challenge Hamilton for the title. As amazing a champion as Hamilton is, his fans are truly more amazing.

Vettel went from 20th to 12th on Lap 1 today and there's hardly a mention of it. Had Hamilton achieved something of the sort, Donnington Park and Senna's spirit would have been recreated to no end today.

So your telling me Vettel has had the upper hand on Lewis in on track battles between the 2 ?

The one time hamilton didn't have the fastest car on the grid on the straights (2013 merc and 2011 mclaren in monza), he was looking average. It's easy to defend and attack with by far the fastest car on the straight. It takes literally zero skill, as it didn't in spain when he cruised by with 30 kph advantage. Meanwhile vettel had to go on the grass to barely overtake bottas (with an engine over recomended mileage) who was like 2s a lap slower, but that doesnt matter on the straights.

@Schuttelberg
Didnt Vettel wnd the 1st lap 13th ? And started effectively 19th.

[Chene_Mostert]

didn't Lewis start first and finished second?

2011 was an awful year for Hamilton, shockingly bad at numerous tracks. Wasn't just down to the car not being the fastest in straight line though. I think he stepped up after that year and rose to another level.

Yeah correct, sorry if i said otherwise. Not sure i did though.

What applies to Lewis ? I was talking about him being great at fighting on track with his title rival and Schuttelberg said I was delusional. Or at least thats how i read it.

[Chene_Mostert]

Merc and Lewis are going to regret the easy 7 points they lost today. A good couple of twists are still in the pipeline for this season. Its going to be Fun!

[Phil]

Well done guys, you are ruining a perfectly valid topic. Go and discuss the malaysian race in the malaysia race topic.

This is the permutation topic.

[PlatinumZealot]

Oh. Right.
So 34 points lead to Lew Lew. 5 races to go. Vet can still be chimpion no matter what Lewis does as long as Lewis doesn't outscore him in any more races. In other words to guarantee his chamionship he has to win every single race from now on.
