First of all, kudos to Lance Stroll on his pole position... I never thought we would have to wait 23 years for a fellow Canadian to be the fastest driver on a saturday! Time flies..
His pole position ended a seven year run from the big Three (Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull ), while showcasing his talents under wet conditions once again, just like he did at Imola in 2017.
Unfortunately, after a comfortable start of the race today, his pit stop annihilated any hope for a podium.
I agree with you Doc, that Perez is a better driver than Stroll and it would be a shame if he does not get Albon's spot with Red Bull, in my opinion.
When it comes to Hamilton vs Verstappen , as of now, I will definitely give the edge to Hamilton..but its mostly based on mental toughness and mistakes. Hamilton hardly makes any, while Verstappen's immaturity is still showing at times.. Talent wise ?
Yes. Verstappen is without a doubt, a future World Champion.
Maybe as soon as next year.
That said , I really enjoyed the race!!
Hey Gaby, J'ai enfin eu ma pluie
I will let Sebastian Vettel describe Hamilton's feat..
" I think today's race is the best proof that he is the greatest of our era for sure. "
