Carlos is just delivering and proving Ferrari wrong. I love that type of Carlos.

It's Ferrari fucking up strats even outside of a race. Getting Hamilton at 40 years old is baffling

Well Hamilton is an all time great. Ferrari are completely justified in employing him. As Alonso is proving, age is no factor as long as you maintain fitness.

I don't buy that, Hamilton was great, not anymore. Alonso is very competent, sure, but both definitely not suitable for a long-term project.

I would understand if Hamilton would be a seat filler until a star rookie woud be taking over, but kicking Sainz who is delivering very good performances is a bad idea.

Hamilton is not supposed to be a long term option. He is possible fairytale story if he wins the championship in the 3-4 years he is at Ferrari.

Because sainz is as good as he is, Ferrari don't need him when they build a championship winning car because him and leclerc would have made the same sort of pairing as rosberg and Hamilton leading to intense rivalry within the team.
