Im not 100% sure on this but it seems this season when the SS has been used Nico has a slight edge?

he might be gelling with the car more, but he still seems to be less comfortable under breaking, and still seems slower in the rain.

Rain is Lewis' best friend, before the last lap drama in Q3 he was also faster than Nico.

It's nice to see Nico's post race comments and how unbothered he appears. Naturally, I'm sure the result ticked him off but he seemed to put it behind him well and wasn't a sore loser about. Very admirable.

That's because Nico is a thinking man and thinking men like us tend to show no emotions when things don't go our way because we are so busy thinking about it! So yeah, Nico's is quite consumed about his championship threat. He just aint showing it. 8)

I don't really see trends to suggest Nico is getting more performance out of the car in the race. He is gelling with the setup aspects for sure, but hasn't shown where he's been faster over the race.
However i do know is very good in tight corners as well. So i expect them to be equal in the mickey mouse part of the track, but Hamilton with the edge in the braking zone after the long straight.
For Sure!!

That's why I think this race will be hard for Nico. A moderately Heavy breaking zone before turn 2/3 then it's almost full throttle through the DRS zone and strait, then extreme braking for turn 6.

I think it's crucial for Lewis to win at Hockenheim, since it's Nico's home GP. If he wants to deal a mental blow, now it's the moment.

Didn't Lewis say Nico is not German enough or whatever?

Here is LH's quote: "I know he has grown up in Monaco so Monaco is his home town. It will be great to win in Germany. He is German, Finnish, Monégasque or whatever, so he will get that support in Monaco and in Germany he has always had great support there. It is always good to beat others on their home turf."

It's almost laughable. LH constantly runs his mouth about Nico, any chance he gets and to whoever will listen. I can't say that I've heard Nico say anything negative in the press about LH or his lack of character.

Whats even funnier is that after the British GP, you would think that LH had parted the sky or something. LH was gifted this race with Nico's gearbox retirement. Nothing more and nothing less. Granted, LH had 2 retirements but the second one was self inflicted. Nico needs to keep the pressure on Hamilton and he will continue to make mistakes.

I'm pretty sure Hamilton was a king of mickey mouse part of the track in Abu Dhabi. What's wrong with being faster anywhere?

LH: "To be honest Nico has never actually been in Germany, so it’s not really his home race" http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/12433 ... -home-race
Soap opera chapter 13, turns out Hamilton wasn't babbling but it's a cunning psychological plan to shoot a jab at Rosberg every GP. It worked perfectly too with mistake after mistake. He's half German living abroad and you only inherited not won home GP. McLaren 2007 with Dennis (Button needs to step up and Magnussen can't do no wrong) and Hamilton must have been a nice place.
