Are we saying that Sainz is better than Lewis currently? That will have to be true for that prediction. If sainz was close there’s no way that I see leclerc blowing Lewis out of the water.

I always asked my self this when I hear people say he will be blown away my Charles, there almost saying Sainz is close or better than Hamilton at this stage in there career. This year will be interesting to see if it’s true
I’m not a cult LH member but I am a lifelong fan; my suspicion is that the gaps we see with Lewis and George is to some extent Lewis just getting mid-pack and genuinely bored with dicing with the ugly driving styles of those midpack drivers (Yuki, Magnussen, Stroll) and just taking it back to 80% to just get the race over with. If he knows it will take 8 laps at 10/10 to pass a midpack driver, and at the end his tires will be cooked, then why not just hug the slipstream at 8/10 and bring it home.
@@MichaelEilers ok I can see what you mean. I believe he was trying to figure it out but his driving style plus the direction merc went down just wasn’t a suitable formula for him imo, maybe one or two races him dialing back a bit because he was discouraged from his mistakes and some situational circumstances, but I believe he gave it a good try, I do think he will have a decent/great first year at Ferrari despite certain criticism towards him based of stats witch also is understandable
The way the former drivers are criticising Lewis's drive and new job 😂 Even one who is busy fighting against the horrible disease that is cancer still spoke out negatively about it. Mansell, a world champion and man who is more than experienced enough to comment, believes in Lewis's ability and that he will ace his time at Ferrari.

My only comment, reserve judgement... Is Alonso slow? Was Vettel slow when he left RB after Daniel ate his lunch? Didn't win a championship but was the only real challenge to Lewis except for Nico's championship year. Factually every time that Merc was working, Lewis was faster on race pace than George. Garbage car = garbage results no matter how good you are. If the RB was as much garbage at the beginning of the season as at the end... He would not have been a champion in 2024.

Cameron, when you have Peter Windsor alongside you it sounds like you know your stuff but I've come to the conclusion that it's only because you simply go along with what Peter says. Without the legend that is Peter you talk a lot of nonsense and even contradict yourself a lot. At the start of this video you're saying stuff like can Lewis still be last of the late breakers etc then 20 minutes into the video you're saying being last of the late breakers doesn't work on this era of F1 cars which you basically copied from what Peter and Lando have stated. And it was only a few videos ago that you were arguing that Lewis can beat Leclerc if Ferrari gives him a good enough car but now you're saying he has little chance of beating him. Seems like you can't make your mind up about a lot of things and often contradict yourself. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy listening to your channel I just wish you would be more consistent with your opinions. One minute you are a massive Lewis fanboy and the next it's almost like you're running him down and being a Max fanboy. It's like you're just copying and pasting what others are saying at the time and are incapable of giving your own opinion and sticking with it. And please stop trying to sound Italian every time you say Scuderia I'm nearly wetting myself every time you do it 😂
i think on the russell vs hamilton thing, russell will get better, hes still abit raw here and there but ive seen improvements in it, well hamilton has gone over the hill, his peak years are gone so the we may say massive improvements at ferrari but he will never reach his peak merc form
I think one point to argue as well is Lewis at Mercedes struggled to adapt his style to the car. Mercedes was unable to really get the car consistent so it’s like riding a bull and spinning tea cups. With Ferrari they seem to be more on his side to make the car that he would feel comfortable and in turn has helped make the car better for Charles as well.
Am Getting excited for 2025 season. Re Lewis hitting 40. Sir Sterling who gathered no Moss said he quit when he hit that age when his eyes started to take a fraction of a second longer to re focus from track to gauges. He said it got dangerous. My eyes started doing that when I hit 40. Love your F1 coverage and delivery style Mate. Gidday from New Zealand. Go Liam 🎉
Your issue is you are framing the Ferrari restructure around Lewis, as if somehow Fred wants to build that team around him instead of Leclerc. I would argue that is clearly not what is happening. Fred is just trying to build a good team full stop, but he needs time to experiment and see what works. Are we forgetting that this is only his 2nd year as TP?. Now, Lewis is part of the picture, being he is a good barometer, having worked with a dominant outfit before. You can hear in Fred's interviews when he's asked about Lewis. He talks not about the driving, but about how Lewis knows how to get the best out of the people around him. In short, Fred basically wants to trim off the bullshit that's preventing him from building the team he needs.
Lewis wasn't getting all the new parts in 2024 and his heart isn't going to be in it when he know's he's leaving at the end of the season. Everyone leaves this out of their judgement of his 2024 performance while bashing him with the 'too old' nonsense.
Then they’re making their championship battle, but they’ve changed the car for nobody Charles Leclerc has had his chance everything to do with the car. All the changes is to suit Lewis Hamilton so he may challenge 100% for the championship and he will. 2025 onwards is gonna be the best years racing in Formula One and following
Thanks for all the amazing daily content Cam even thou the season is 3 months away. I EVERYDAY CHECK YOURE CHANNEL IN LUNCHTIME AND AFTER WORK TO SEE IF I HAVE NEW CONTENT FROM YOU. I love to hear your thoughts about anything. Youre an AMAZINGLY TALENTED COMMUNICATOR GOD GIVEN TALENT GENIUS LEVEL SETTINGS! But i digress Have an amazing New Year with lots of health success and happiness!
Cameron the evidence as we all see as soon as the car behaved we the real Hamilton. And there were races where he was the fast man on track at times. His qualifying position is what let him down.. LeClerc had his yrs to make a difference. You think Ferrari would spend that kind of money on Lewis to play support driver... LeClerc is fast, but Hamilton has better race craft, and all he needs to do is qualify close to LeClerc, and he stands a chance of beating him every race. That man is not over the hill. Stop going on about his age until his age really becomes an issue. Allow it man
You're right man. Lewis was at his brilliant best this year, better than I've ever seen him. Better than 21, better than 18 and better than 08 versions of Lewis. In fact them iterations of Lewis wouldn't cope with this 2024 version of Lewis. They wouldn't see which way 39 year old Lewis went. That's how good he was. No, you allow it man with the foolishness
@Cameron-Cc you can be as sarcastic as u want and move the goal post from the nonsense you were talking about Lewis's age. I didn't insinuate that Lewis was as brilliant as the yrs you point out.. I said he showed spells of brilliance when the car was behaving. And if Ferrari delivers a car that he is happy with, he will be right back up there. You keep contradicting yourself. On the one hand, you talking about "his age, he is not able to adapt to these ground effect cars, or the car is not complying with what he wants." So which is it, Cameron, is it his age or is it the car or all the above?..🤔🙄
I first listened to this channel a couple years ago & we were all pretty hardcore SLH fans…in the trials & tribulations of our guy, I think all drivers are treated differently as a reflection of their personalities, driving styles, team dynamics…not simply a “fan boy” channel. Imho
You can bang out 1000 kms in three track days. Believe me, I’ve done it myself in GT race cars (350 kms per day is more than achievable). They’ve been giving people like Kimi Antonelli dramatically more distance in testing than that. 1000 kms is not a big deal.
Did Lewis not beat Charles this year 3 times?? Did he not? Even when his team letbhim down but still when he won in 2024 against both of them and I want to know how you all are looking over Lewis 3 wins and!!!! Would have won if they gave him a good car.
Some Lewis fans here are going overboard and telling Cam what to do. Totally insane, Some post 10+ comments on 1 vid to tell Cam how or what 🤷🏼. Luckily, Cam makes his own choice and look through it.
@ I concur. Cam is doing what he loves & its his channel. Im just as guilty at times of doing the same thing but I link to think even an old dog can be a better dog 🐕!
@@maconpatton I understand Macon. I too am sometimes guilty of my approach. But I would like to do better, but if I sometimes read something and it is unfair, then it is still difficult sometimes. I am also getting older and wisdom slowly comes 🤏🏼🤣. There is nothing wrong with an opinion, it's all about how you tell it, some cross that line and then it is more toxic behavior. We fight this together and want to have a good time together as a fan of the sport. And together we watch out for toxic behavior. ✌🏼
@cameron-cc keep doing what you doing. Simmering, bubbling, and soon will hit the masses. Maybe one day we'll see you on the paddock instead of Danicka... support and sub🙏🏽
Cameron: have you forgot that Caddilac is coming? What a joy for Lewis to go to Caddilac in 2026 or 2027 to partnership with the new company and take them to a championship that Lewis by then will win with 4 different teams never will be done but by Lewis. Just a thought Cameron
It's a lot of an unknown right now to have a fair viewpoint on. I found a youtube interview with Mario Andretti getting his views on the Cadillac team. Everyone talks as though the Andretti name is gone, watch this and you'll see it isn't.
Lewis would never drive for Cadillac because Mario has shown his true elitist character which is unfortunate that he is oblivious to the realities of the world.
Lets see what Lewis looks like come summer break because all these people and ex racers ARE NOT SIR LEWIS HAMILTON if he listened to the doubtful comments he would have never entered F1
There is no way to compare George and Charles. Let's stay honest. We just don't know. But I can say for sure; if George would have the looks if for example Colapinto, everyone would bet, that he is the next Champion without doubt...
Do u not think he was disenfranchised after 2021. If I heard the rumours of Mercedes shareholders not wanting to have an English black man beat the best driver in the world, who is German, winning in a German car. No way pedro. He must have heard that. Promises from toto, then a bag of shit car where he wasn’t even in the right seating position. He’s been there years🤔🤔 u can’t un hear things. Once trust is cloudy, interest goes elsewhere.
1000 km testing program 99% new car, now we all get to see how good he really is in 2025, Leclerc wins more races, what will LH fans say “sabotage?” Or something else.
Max needs the same, the car built to his liken. If anybody should go it s/b Alonso. Ham won 2 races just last year. Leclerc makes too many mistakes in all phases. Let's wait till the season starts and see where Ham is at.
When the 26’ season is over…FER will refuses LH +1 & Fred will be fired, for the absolute shit show we are about to see. Charles in the only real winner in all of this.
Regurgitated content ...same script most videos , just a different order of chapter .... don't believe it ? .... go back a few recent videos .... same old same old... just watch 1 video per week and you will not get De' Ja' Vous (probably)
Sounds good on paper sir. But allow me to correct you if I may. The Hakkinen is brand new and so I've never talked about it previously. The testing story is as at today, so I could not have. But never let truth get in the way of a good story barrydavies. Please, after you Claude.
If these were sentiments from other 7xWDC winners then there'd be a discussion to be had. But we are hearing from those who are nowhere close to that. Those who aren't in the conversation of being the GOAT have opinions on the GOAT by numbers. 🤦🏾 I remember so called former legends saying it was a bad idea to leave McLaren as well. Yes age is different, but they can be wrong as they were obviously wrong previously. Let's reserve judgement and analysis until the season begins. Why spend so much time evaluating Lewis based on what's in our heads? That's not where the racing takes place. 2025 season will be exciting whatever happens. 🍻
Who knew that they would give Lewis thr worse car. Did not Lewia show all of you when that email came out and they and they made the car better and Lewis was on fire!!!!
Cameron you can’t make people with all emotions reason. Some People choose when to be reasonable & not. Just leave it. Let’s wait for the excuses when Charles beat Lewis in a Ferrari car
You wanted to present your post as an objective analysis of Lewis Hamilton's competitiveness at Ferrari, and the only thing you demonstrated in this regard is fanaticism for George Russell. Is Hamilton's age or lack of travel with a new car evidence? The Italian press is not reliable. They only look for scandal. Norris is better than Leclerc and Russell in qualifying, but in the race they can only compete with each other and without luck. Leclerc was beaten by today's first Williams driver, at 27 years old he has not managed to prove anything as a driver. If Vasseur had wanted an ambassador he would have looked for Alonso, and what he did was look for a man capable of giving him what Ferrari has not had for a long time. Maybe you should listen to your mother more.
Sadly, your psuedo scientific supposition falls at the first hurdle with "your fantacism of George Russell" claim. If there were a valid critique it would be this. I hold a prime Lewis Hamilton in too high an esteem, and George to low, in thinking that Lewis in his prime would never be outqualified so comprehensively by a George Russell. But don't let this truth, topple your very carefully constructed, fragile house of cards narrative.
@Cameron-Cc Google, why did you do this to me? I wrote fanaticism. Sorry, you are right to judge my comment as pseudoscientific. I forgot that no one knows more about it than you.
I guess we’re gonna find out when the season start George is not all that good you know he has no race peace Mercedes try everything to stop Hamilton. We all know that.
Oooh Cam your off again but I’m still here to help you Okay so let’s see ok you say that Ferrari will not build a car for any driver let’s talk about that so Charles Lehue has been been with Ferrari for how long can how many championships does he won? Lewis Hamilton is joining Ferrari and all of a sudden they’re changing the car 99% so why is that? Is that for Charles look up also in 2026 all the rules are changing so they gonna have to change the car again so for one year you’re telling me they’ve changed the car 99% for nobody
Cam are back to hopefull thinking for the last phew days all your talking is about who Lewis not the go to Max? And who is the champion Then when you do talk about Max’s you say he hasn’t got a fast car a Red Bull don’t provide him with a fast car he might leave or even go on a sabbatical This is the greatest driver of all time got here his car drops from being the fastest Formula One car ever in history to being third on the grid fourth on the grid and he wants to retire and the same man you’re talking about again now Lewis Hamilton has just driven how many years with what kind of car The greatest guy ever isn’t it This is why Max Verstappen is not the greatest driver, nor Godier. He has to prove it with competition equal, including even a challenge from his teammate, which has never had.
Why have we not explored the asymmetric braking system quietly removed from the Red Bull cars when all you do is go on about flexi wings. Flexi wings were not deemed illegal, but asymmetric braking was and is a clear cheat
You're new to the channel Gez. Welcome. We covered inertia valve when it was a story in real time. The videos are still on the channel if you care to watch them. Abbot of unreason.
Ok Cameron You don't cheat and Goerge would not have got disqualified!!!! You remember that Gorge got all!!!! The updates!! All the latest upgrades!! Goerge running upfront and Lewis have to take a board and drive Lewis said
All the updates? This is false. At Monaco Lewis has the option you'll recall and turned it down. But don't let the truth get in the way of your story / narrative sir
Lolololol he turn down because it was a coin toss Sir. Lololl should he as a 7 times champion 🏆 have to go threw this kind of treatment Sir? Should Lewis have pace then come Sunday the pace is gone? I am just asking Sir? Why did email come out in Mercedes about Lewis not being treated far? Just asking Sir. And why did the car got better for the next 3 or 4 week?? Just asking these questions to you.
But hang on. The original premise what that he didn't get access to upgrades. Don't let confirmation bias fuel alternative truth, sir. To like Lewis is not to be an abbot of unreason, necessarily.

Let’s be perfectly honest. The flexi rear wing won McLaren the championship over Ferrari. At tracks like Baku it made the difference.

Your issue is you are framing the Ferrari restructure around Lewis, as if somehow Fred wants to build that team around him instead of Leclerc. I would argue that is clearly not what is happening. Fred is just trying to build a good team full stop, but he needs time to experiment and see what works. Are we forgetting that this is only his 2nd year as TP?.
Now, Lewis is part of the picture, being he is a good barometer, having worked with a dominant outfit before. You can hear in Fred's interviews when he's asked about Lewis. He talks not about the driving, but about how Lewis knows how to get the best out of the people around him. In short, Fred basically wants to trim off the bullshit that's preventing him from building the team he needs.
Lewis wasn't getting all the new parts in 2024 and his heart isn't going to be in it when he know's he's leaving at the end of the season. Everyone leaves this out of their judgement of his 2024 performance while bashing him with the 'too old' nonsense.
I agree, we don't take 2024 ham at face value, too many other factors at play
He was almost 2nd in 23 and suddenly they think he lost his ability in 90 days between 23 and 24 😂
40k
Let's go Javier! 🍻
Then they’re making their championship battle, but they’ve changed the car for nobody Charles Leclerc has had his chance everything to do with the car. All the changes is to suit Lewis Hamilton so he may challenge 100% for the championship and he will.
2025 onwards is gonna be the best years racing in Formula One and following
Thanks for all the amazing daily content Cam even thou the season is 3 months away. I EVERYDAY CHECK YOURE CHANNEL IN LUNCHTIME AND AFTER WORK TO SEE IF I HAVE NEW CONTENT FROM YOU. I love to hear your thoughts about anything. Youre an AMAZINGLY TALENTED COMMUNICATOR GOD GIVEN TALENT GENIUS LEVEL SETTINGS! But i digress Have an amazing New Year with lots of health success and happiness!
Cameron the evidence as we all see as soon as the car behaved we the real Hamilton. And there were races where he was the fast man on track at times. His qualifying position is what let him down.. LeClerc had his yrs to make a difference. You think Ferrari would spend that kind of money on Lewis to play support driver... LeClerc is fast, but Hamilton has better race craft, and all he needs to do is qualify close to LeClerc, and he stands a chance of beating him every race. That man is not over the hill. Stop going on about his age until his age really becomes an issue. Allow it man
You're right man. Lewis was at his brilliant best this year, better than I've ever seen him. Better than 21, better than 18 and better than 08 versions of Lewis. In fact them iterations of Lewis wouldn't cope with this 2024 version of Lewis. They wouldn't see which way 39 year old Lewis went. That's how good he was. No, you allow it man with the foolishness
@Cameron-Cc you can be as sarcastic as u want and move the goal post from the nonsense you were talking about Lewis's age. I didn't insinuate that Lewis was as brilliant as the yrs you point out.. I said he showed spells of brilliance when the car was behaving. And if Ferrari delivers a car that he is happy with, he will be right back up there. You keep contradicting yourself. On the one hand, you talking about "his age, he is not able to adapt to these ground effect cars, or the car is not complying with what he wants." So which is it, Cameron, is it his age or is it the car or all the above?..🤔🙄
@@geraldbaptiste9015last year he was nearly 2nd in a car worse than the red bull and Ferraris but they say he can't handle these cars😂
Happy new year to you too
Happy new year AA!
I first listened to this channel a couple years ago & we were all pretty hardcore SLH fans…in the trials & tribulations of our guy, I think all drivers are treated differently as a reflection of their personalities, driving styles, team dynamics…not simply a “fan boy” channel. Imho
In 2025 LH will be crushed by LeClerc but in 2026 the car will be smaller and with less groundeffect then he has a chance.
First he says he needs 6-7 races to get used to the car and now he needs 1000km testing, sounds like me when I made my driving licence..
You can bang out 1000 kms in three track days. Believe me, I’ve done it myself in GT race cars (350 kms per day is more than achievable). They’ve been giving people like Kimi Antonelli dramatically more distance in testing than that. 1000 kms is not a big deal.
that's 333 laps of fiorano test track. Just sounds like a normal pre season test, before they had testing bans.
Did Lewis actually say this?
@@BETAsin it sure does. And they can test as much as they want in the two year-old car.
I WILL BE LISTENING FOR YEARS
“ WHHHAT ARE WE DOING HERE 🤷🏾♂️!!!
🔥 🏎️ 🔥🏎️🔥🏎️🔥🏎️🔥🏎️🔥🏎️🔥
Did Lewis not beat Charles this year 3 times?? Did he not? Even when his team letbhim down but still when he won in 2024 against both of them and I want to know how you all are looking over Lewis 3 wins and!!!! Would have won if they gave him a good car.
All these crazy comments from some people who just popped in & leaving childish comments makes me laugh. 😅
I cannot 🙈🤭😂
Some Lewis fans here are going overboard and telling Cam what to do. Totally insane, Some post 10+ comments on 1 vid to tell Cam how or what 🤷🏼. Luckily, Cam makes his own choice and look through it.
@ I concur. Cam is doing what he loves & its his channel. Im just as guilty at times of doing the same thing but I link to think even an old dog can be a better dog 🐕!
@@outlawf1272 Team LH cult can be cringe 😂🙄
@@maconpatton I understand Macon.
I too am sometimes guilty of my approach.
But I would like to do better, but if I sometimes read something and it is unfair, then it is still difficult sometimes. I am also getting older and wisdom slowly comes 🤏🏼🤣.
There is nothing wrong with an opinion, it's all about how you tell it, some cross that line and then it is more toxic behavior. We fight this together and want to have a good time together as a fan of the sport. And together we watch out for toxic behavior. ✌🏼
you are nice, you are normal, interesting to listen to, thanks for entertaining us. joost
No British bias to be seen here and how funny to see a fanboy getting a man crush later in life.
Some say annabee that when you get it in the next from both sides you're doing summink right
@cameron-cc keep doing what you doing. Simmering, bubbling, and soon will hit the masses. Maybe one day we'll see you on the paddock instead of Danicka... support and sub🙏🏽
Cameron: have you forgot that Caddilac is coming? What a joy for Lewis to go to Caddilac in 2026 or 2027 to partnership with the new company and take them to a championship that Lewis by then will win with 4 different teams never will be done but by Lewis. Just a thought Cameron
It's a lot of an unknown right now to have a fair viewpoint on. I found a youtube interview with Mario Andretti getting his views on the Cadillac team. Everyone talks as though the Andretti name is gone, watch this and you'll see it isn't.
Him and Alonso need to retire something like that lol😂
No matter how much I'm a fan new drivers ...
Lewis would never drive for Cadillac because Mario has shown his true elitist character which is unfortunate that he is oblivious to the realities of the world.
Lets see what Lewis looks like come summer break because all these people and ex racers ARE NOT SIR LEWIS HAMILTON if he listened to the doubtful comments he would have never entered F1
There is no way to compare George and Charles. Let's stay honest. We just don't know. But I can say for sure; if George would have the looks if for example Colapinto, everyone would bet, that he is the next Champion without doubt...
Cope
Do u not think he was disenfranchised after 2021. If I heard the rumours of Mercedes shareholders not wanting to have an English black man beat the best driver in the world, who is German, winning in a German car. No way pedro. He must have heard that. Promises from toto, then a bag of shit car where he wasn’t even in the right seating position. He’s been there years🤔🤔 u can’t un hear things. Once trust is cloudy, interest goes elsewhere.
1000 km testing program 99% new car, now we all get to see how good he really is in 2025, Leclerc wins more races, what will LH fans say “sabotage?” Or something else.
what a friendly comment you have made here. and to the point, there actually is a lot of evidence for merc sabotage in 2024
Max needs the same, the car built to his liken. If anybody should go it s/b Alonso. Ham won 2 races just last year. Leclerc makes too many mistakes in all phases. Let's wait till the season starts and see where Ham is at.
When the 26’ season is over…FER will refuses LH +1 & Fred will be fired, for the absolute shit show we are about to see. Charles in the only real winner in all of this.
Regurgitated content ...same script most videos , just a different order of chapter .... don't believe it ? .... go back a few recent videos .... same old same old... just watch 1 video per week and you will not get De' Ja' Vous (probably)
Sounds good on paper sir.
But allow me to correct you if I may.
The Hakkinen is brand new and so I've never talked about it previously.
The testing story is as at today, so I could not have.
But never let truth get in the way of a good story barrydavies. Please, after you Claude.
If these were sentiments from other 7xWDC winners then there'd be a discussion to be had. But we are hearing from those who are nowhere close to that.
Those who aren't in the conversation of being the GOAT have opinions on the GOAT by numbers. 🤦🏾
I remember so called former legends saying it was a bad idea to leave McLaren as well. Yes age is different, but they can be wrong as they were obviously wrong previously.
Let's reserve judgement and analysis until the season begins. Why spend so much time evaluating Lewis based on what's in our heads? That's not where the racing takes place.
2025 season will be exciting whatever happens. 🍻
Why would Mercedes pay $100m for Hamilton to be openly racist and discriminate?
May I ask how is he racist??? Sounds like your definition of racist is encouraging minorities to strive for equal opportunities. Please explain.
LH couldn't learn to tame the Merc cars he was used to for yrs. No way is he going to suddenly get to grips with a new team, car etc.
A sane lewis fan on youtube .... interesting
Who knew that they would give Lewis thr worse car. Did not Lewia show all of you when that email came out and they and they made the car better and Lewis was on fire!!!!
CAM_F1 IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAVORITE FORMULA 1 MEDIA COMMUNICATION PERSON
HE IS THOROUGH, CLINICAL AND BRILLIANT
Russel had a better car
Cameron you can’t make people with all emotions reason. Some People choose when to be reasonable & not. Just leave it. Let’s wait for the excuses when Charles beat Lewis in a Ferrari car
Very, very well said.
I think you're absolutely on the money.
You wanted to present your post as an objective analysis of Lewis Hamilton's competitiveness at Ferrari, and the only thing you demonstrated in this regard is fanaticism for George Russell. Is Hamilton's age or lack of travel with a new car evidence? The Italian press is not reliable. They only look for scandal. Norris is better than Leclerc and Russell in qualifying, but in the race they can only compete with each other and without luck. Leclerc was beaten by today's first Williams driver, at 27 years old he has not managed to prove anything as a driver. If Vasseur had wanted an ambassador he would have looked for Alonso, and what he did was look for a man capable of giving him what Ferrari has not had for a long time. Maybe you should listen to your mother more.
Sadly, your psuedo scientific supposition falls at the first hurdle with "your fantacism of George Russell" claim.
If there were a valid critique it would be this. I hold a prime Lewis Hamilton in too high an esteem, and George to low, in thinking that Lewis in his prime would never be outqualified so comprehensively by a George Russell. But don't let this truth, topple your very carefully constructed, fragile house of cards narrative.
@Cameron-Cc Google, why did you do this to me? I wrote fanaticism. Sorry, you are right to judge my comment as pseudoscientific. I forgot that no one knows more about it than you.
I guess we’re gonna find out when the season start George is not all that good you know he has no race peace Mercedes try everything to stop Hamilton. We all know that.
Cameron Put some respect on Lewis name!!!! Goerge will never win a championship never!!!!
Men lie, women lie.... 🥹
If I am correct didn't Lewis still win 3 races 2024?? When all had better cars?? Wasn't Max still driving? Wasn't George still driving on track???
Oooh Cam your off again but I’m still here to help you
Okay so let’s see ok you say that Ferrari will not build a car for any driver let’s talk about that so Charles Lehue has been been with Ferrari for how long can how many championships does he won?
Lewis Hamilton is joining Ferrari and all of a sudden they’re changing the car 99% so why is that? Is that for Charles look up also in 2026 all the rules are changing so they gonna have to change the car again so for one year you’re telling me they’ve changed the car 99% for nobody
Cameron is trying to get subscribers by trashing Lewis
His name is Mika Hakkinen. He won the championship in 98 and 99. 🍺
@@Cameron-Cc i love it 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂 so now Lewis Hamilton can’t even beat Charles LeClair who has won. How many championships can you look are joking?
Cam are back to hopefull thinking for the last phew days all your talking is about who Lewis not the go to Max? And who is the champion
Then when you do talk about Max’s you say he hasn’t got a fast car a Red Bull don’t provide him with a fast car he might leave or even go on a sabbatical
This is the greatest driver of all time got here his car drops from being the fastest Formula One car ever in history to being third on the grid fourth on the grid and he wants to retire and the same man you’re talking about again now Lewis Hamilton has just driven how many years with what kind of car The greatest guy ever isn’t it
This is why Max Verstappen is not the greatest driver, nor Godier. He has to prove it with competition equal, including even a challenge from his teammate, which has never had.
Lolololol Cameron you missing wearing your classes because u r not seeing well!!! Lewis still the best driver on the track.
Glasses of the rose tinted variety? True
Why have we not explored the asymmetric braking system quietly removed from the Red Bull cars when all you do is go on about flexi wings. Flexi wings were not deemed illegal, but asymmetric braking was and is a clear cheat
You're new to the channel Gez. Welcome. We covered inertia valve when it was a story in real time. The videos are still on the channel if you care to watch them. Abbot of unreason.
Ok Cameron
You don't cheat and Goerge would not have got disqualified!!!! You remember that Gorge got all!!!! The updates!! All the latest upgrades!! Goerge running upfront and Lewis have to take a board and drive Lewis said
All the updates? This is false. At Monaco Lewis has the option you'll recall and turned it down. But don't let the truth get in the way of your story / narrative sir
Lolololol he turn down because it was a coin toss Sir. Lololl should he as a 7 times champion 🏆 have to go threw this kind of treatment Sir? Should Lewis have pace then come Sunday the pace is gone? I am just asking Sir? Why did email come out in Mercedes about Lewis not being treated far? Just asking Sir. And why did the car got better for the next 3 or 4 week?? Just asking these questions to you.
But hang on. The original premise what that he didn't get access to upgrades. Don't let confirmation bias fuel alternative truth, sir. To like Lewis is not to be an abbot of unreason, necessarily.
