I think he was today.
Well they clearly don't help him drive. :lol:
He doesn't seem to have that last little bit of talent - Carlos Sainz Jr may have, Max Verstappen does, Nico doesn't - maybe it skips a generation?
Nico just got lucky being in a team that suddenly came good - shame Mercedes couldn't/didn't dump him for a special driver like Alonso, Button, Vettel, Riccardo.....

I would rather Lewis was the one point ahead, but it is just about all square now and is making for an interesting run in to the title. I was hoping Jenson would have made more of the wet conditions as well.
Don't think it's anything to do with Nico wanting it more. It's more to do with the team pulling Hamilton in a couple of laps earlier than Nico despite Nico having first call and then putting him on the slowest of the three tyre options when he needed to overtake. Next bringing him in again when the tyres were not going to last till the end but Nico's would and did? Then finally not putting him on the Ultra soft tyre for the final laps which Riccardo clearly proved were clearly the fastest . A conspiracy theorist would think the team were trying to shaft Lewis and make sure Nico gained as many points over Lewis as possible?
Nico is avoiding lady misfortune this year so far, and still recovered to podium this weekend could have easily been a dnf. irrespective of conspiracy theories he's doing the job.
The target for Lewis must be to win all the remaining races which isn't out of the question but one engine fault out of the last five races is a high probability in his car... so place your bets on a nico championship while you still can - 8-11 odds the last time I checked.
