I think success is not always the same as greatness.
Just a couple examples; nobody will say that Robert Horry is a greater player than Jordan or LeBron but, he won seven NBA titles. Was he awesome? Yes but, in 16 seasons I think he scored way fewer than 10,000 points, in over 1,000 games.
Nobody, especially on this website, would say Franco Harris was a better running back than Earl Campbell but, Franco won four Super bowls. I think Earl was a better running back who didn’t have the same level of success. Flip the two and Earl’s success as a Steeler would have been epic.
I just think that the Mercedes was so far ahead of the rest of the field during that stretch of Hamilton/Mercedes domination. When that car can go from the back of the field with very little difficulty in a few laps it’s just so much better.
On the pre-race show they just did a short segment on Hamilton and his Ferrari struggles. Martin worked very hard at the end to try and say that age is not a problem for Hamilton, which he is no more qualified to say that than I am to say I think it is an issue.
What do we say Antonelli finishes the season higher in the points than does Hamilton?
