And last time I checked the Ferrari is slower than the Alpine in a straight line.dans79 wrote: ↑06 Aug 2021, 05:29He still got the hype in, hence why you see so many "news" articles withe a title like "Alonso taught hamilton the racing line".
Those are all based on this comment.
“I think he learned a couple of different lines in the last three corners after the 10 laps behind me. He was able to pass Carlos just in one lap, applying those new lines.”
I was somehow wishing it was Max and Alonso fighting ther. It would have ended up in tears most likely. Hamilton kept the pressure on but never took unnecessary risks. I thought he drove brilliantly. So did Fernando of course, but he just can't help tapping himself on the back. Poor guy.
