I agree my friend , but influence and politics was involved in the whole situation ..
Let us not forget HAM had always the necessary help , deals and information just on time ...
Coincidence ?
I don't think so . You know what I mean ...
For example from Lauda. Lauda knew what would come from the German Mercedes side and that Mercedes would be the right move in the coming seasons .
Lauda knew really well that Mercedes would be the ultimate advantage, regarding the Hybrid era in F1.
And that's what we saw in the last F1 Championships : "The Mercedes dominance"
"The Mercedes spaceship" in warp-speed !
Let's call it the boring era , as we know why...
In every single race : 2 silver (now black) cars running in the front, while the rest wasn't in sight .
Let's be grateful , this season It's time for a change in the front ...
Of course HAM is still there , with a lot of luck on his side ! But MAX is there as well . And this season , he'll be there for the first time with equal machinery made by HONDA !
Can't wait for more from this dog fight . As the rest of the world also thinks...
