What impresses me most about Lewis is the guy has done it all, won it all, and still continues to put forth the best effort possible while being damned near perfect. The guy just never lets success get to him, and he's been doing this for a long time. It's pretty amazing actually. I also can't imagine anybody truly dislikes the guy, outside of the annoying marxist BLM political crap the guy really hasn't put a wrong foot forward. Obviously his intentions are good there as well, I just don't think he knows exactly what kind of group he's promoting.

Yes the car plays a big part, but whose the only teammate to ever beat him. Rosberg?

+1 with above.

What I like about Lewis is that he admits mistakes. It’s big of a champion. Lec shows this attitude too. Humility. Max does not, and he’s not even a champion. Everything is always someone else’s fault. He still acts like a ballerina. What a difference maturity makes.

Looking forward to more DNFs, excuses, and tantrums from top Red Bull driver, while the less known but more deserving one finds his way to the podium. Max comes with drama. Lewis comes with results.

LMAO at the people saying it's just because of the car(s)......... Some of you guys are really, really clueless about a lot of things that are needed from a person(mentally/physically,intellectually) to be competitive at a professional racing level.

Senna had a dominant McLaren
Schumacher had a dominant Ferrari
Vettel had a dominant Red Bull
Hamilton has a dominant Mercedes

Dominant cars happen.

Dominant teams happen.

Dominant drivers happen.

Perpetually second string. Perpetually acting like he’s better than everyone, even when perpetually getting bested by Lewis. What a legend that must me. Glad to see that impresses you. But many of us are not impressed though.

I love the look on HAM’s face in the first pic. It says it all. “Aww, you almost had me? It’s cute you think that”.

Ham makes it look easy. Always smiling. Not whining like the youngsters. Did opponents and critics say the same about schumacher?

There is only one champion. How many championships has VER won? Oh, that’s right, none.

He might get a few once the real champion retires. If ever he gets past puberty.

I don't do politics, racing or otherwise, and all politics aside, Lewis is easily the greatest driver of our time.
