MODERATORS
I think these stats are pretty interesting after Lewis got quite some backlash last year for not performing as some expected. Honestly I think at this point Russell has proven himself a solid driver and this just then goes to show Lewis is still on his game. I hope Lewis stays around long enough for this pair to battle it out for a while yet especially in a more competitive car, that would be interesting to see.
Lewis’ stats were subpar last year because the team used him as the setup Guinea pig since he had far better/more feedback experience. No point testing setups on George who wouldn’t know what the top car is supposed to feel like anyway
Not that I don't believe you, but I heard this take elsewhere as well. Is there any "source" for this I can read?
There's not a ton out there, but toto did comment on it early last season.
