His sector 1 was pretty awfulCHT wrote:Big mistake by Lewis for aborting the final run.
BUT he had track position over Rosberg so would have been faster regardless. He wouldn't have got pole, but he could have been ahead of his championship rival.Sevach wrote:His sector 1 was pretty awfulCHT wrote:Big mistake by Lewis for aborting the final run.

Rosberg had some complaints about Hamilton going too slow on the outlap.
I think Nico does realise he is closing in on his first Chance to win the Championship and he did realise that it is more important to always score than it is to always beat your temammate .be it fre practise or every lap...ringo wrote:I'm not talking about working out problems.

This may sound like a joke to use this word, but rosberg is hungrier. Meaning Rosberg is giving 100% from australia.
Hamilton isn't giving 100% all the time. He is not driving like he wants to take full advantage of every second on the track in every session.
He's not looking on the big picture of bagging the points to make the season's end easier. Rosberg respects Lewis more as a threat than Lewis does rosberg and that is preventing him from maximising.
He's just riding of his speed and hoping that it can solve every problem.
Mark you, Hamilton will come to his senses by Hungary, but this is his problem over the years, he takes too long to wake up. It's like he forgets all that he's learned and each year he starts to learn all over again. I am of the mind he may beat rosberg on pure talent, but it's starting to look more difficult with the way how Nico is maximizing every inch and milisecond.

But don't you know, every time Rosberg beats Hamilton, it's due to a mistake, a conspiracy or the stars aligning against him, whereas if Hamilton beats Rosberg, it's due to his superior talent.SidSidney wrote:Irony meters across the planet overheat and start to burn...SectorOne wrote:he's shown on multiple occasions he´s got the mindset of an infant.
Meanwhile Rosberg takes pole. Wasn't that supposed to be Hamilton's thing, the quick lap?
Rosberg has an interesting pole/win ratio compared to Hamilton. Good to see my theory being sustained by evidence.
It is a tiny bit surprising that someone so naturally talented and all-round amazing so often has the lucky leprechaun sprinkling sparkly moonshine winner stardust over his team mate. There's just no explaining it, I guess.thomin wrote:But don't you know, every time Rosberg beats Hamilton, it's due to a mistake, a conspiracy or the stars aligning against him, whereas if Hamilton beats Rosberg, it's due to his superior talent.
Exactly. There are no points for pole positions. The drivers who really succeed generally realize this quite early on, and you can see their "moment of clarity", as their thinking matures from the banzai lap merchant, directly in the ratios.marcush. wrote: I think Nico does realise he is closing in on his first Chance to win the Championship and he did realise that it is more important to always score than it is to always beat your temammate
oh, that's not clear at all. That's the "big fan" side of you thinking/believing in it.ringo wrote: The guy is too slow in the brain. He's not stupid, but when it comes to mental preparation and tactics rosberg has the edge.
It's even more painful because he clearly has the pace on rosberg, but he is not thinking out the qualifying sessions.
