Way too early for Mick, he needs at least one more season in F2 and then a year or two in a backmarker team like Sauber or similar. He's sort of a late bloomer and needs time to adapt and figure things out; throw him into madness that is Ferrari before he's ready and you'll ruin him.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 17, 2019 Subscriber Posted July 17, 2019 Mick Schumacher is also 14th in the F2 championship at the moment and while he's a rookie in the series he's also behind almost half a dozen young drivers who are in the same boat. Mentioning his name in the same sentence of Ferrari at this point is the definition of putting name ahead of merit.

Who'd replace Vettel? A vet like Danny? Or another young gun like Lando ?

If Mercedes let Bottas go for some reason I could see him being in with a shot.

MUFC Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 Noticed how when Vettel is under pressure or getting attacked, Lewis in the one always jumping to his defense?

What about Lewis in 2011? Seb's final season in RB.. who knows. Maybe the car didn't suit him, maybe the rumours about the clause in his contract were real, maybe he was mentally exhausted... who knows.
Subscriber JoshBRFC+ Posted July 24, 2019 Subscriber Posted July 24, 2019 This isn't about Lewis, @Tommy The reason is, Seb is a one trick pony.

And what is that one trick? 4 World Championships, 52 wins, 56 poles, 115 times on the podium. All one trick? Get your head out of your arse.

I believe it's some sort of memory trick where nobody can remember him dominating the sport for almost 5 years with almost no on-track mistakes and all of those accolades you already mentioned.

Moderator Tommy Posted July 27, 2019 Author Moderator Posted July 27, 2019 I was sure he'd get pole today and redeem himself. What a fucking disaster those Ferrari issues were today. Only Grosjean redeemed himself today.
