Not the best cultural match, perhaps? CLC better, perhaps?It wasn't Bottas I had in mind.

Come on, there absolutely was a choice, and V made it. He knew that unless he pushed CLC off, then he'd outdrag him again.

Look at the track room and mutual respect and trust of two drivers having a great race, on e that's gone down in the annals...
I can't see Mercedes dumping Hamilton in favour of Verstappen. Ever. And I can't see Hammy wanting the competition Verstappen would provide. It would be worse than Rosberg.It wasn't Bottas I had in mind.
He's after Schumi's 7. It may not take him any longer than that.I think Hamilton has at best one more season in him. After that it's the bright lights of panto for him.

Likely soBut he'll want to beat it, surely?
The only time there is decent racing is when a faster car is behind a slower one.
Verstappen nearly stalling on the line and having to make up places is an example.
Thus bin practice and start the cars in reverse finishing order of the previous race.
And therein lies the problem with GP racing at present. There are no ‘standout’ drivers, who can outdrive a sub par car, at present ( Vettel excepted, and Kimi seemingly doesn’t care that much anymore) Generally a driver of that calibre, ( Senna, Schumacher, Alonso, Hakkinen, Raikkonen, Vettel. ) all of whom demonstrably drove gash cars, way past what the experienced engineers at their respective teams, thought possible, doesn't appear very often. I believe Leclerc is of that ilk, but he’s not been put in the worst car, so it’s harder to tell.The only point I was making is that given the best car he's the best driver. To be fair, that's probably true for most of the grid.
Vettel on that list? Am surprised.
Vettel poled a Torro Rosso and drove a flag to flag, at Monza, in the rain. That was his ‘proven moment’. Admittedly TR were using a tweaked Ferrari engine that weekend, but the chassis was still no where near that good.Vettel on that list? Am surprised.
