Vettel, Hamilton and Massa.
I do find it somewhat amusing how what Vettel did a few weeks ago was "standard" and "nothing remarkable", while from the same side I now see Hamilton getting hailed for an unbelievable drive.
Are we referring to Mexico? I couldn't vote for Vettel then because he damaged his race during the first 3 corners. The drive thereafter was splendid and his overtaking was often breathtaking but ultimately he went from P1 to P4 in the race.
I think he`s most likely referring to Malaysia where Vettel started dead last to finish off 4th, same as Hamilton this last race... but unlike Hamilton, Vettel did not win the DotD for Malaysia.
^^ this.
Gotcha. Vettel was much further off the lead which is probably why I was less impressed (I voted Vettel too but Max got my first place vote). But a lot of this is down to Verstappen also who I think had much better race pace on that day than Vettel had in Brazil. Perhaps I underrated Vettel's performance? Who do you think was better on that day out of Max and Seb?
I think both were excellent. The thing is that car performance isn't to be compared 1:1. I think Hamilton's Merc was by far the fastest car yesterday, while Vettel was probably at least rivaled by Verstappen in Malaysia. So it stands to reason that Hamilton would finish much closer to the top.
If we then take into account that Hamilton was in 14th immediately and glued to the back, in the dominant car, then if what Vettel did was nothing unusual few weeks ago, then the same goes for Hamilton.
Not that I actually am of that opinion. I think both were flawless and did what their cars allowed them to do.
