It's fairly simple. You trolled and people called you out on your nonsense. Just own it.

You said Russell is better than Hamilton and used Quali stats as evidence.

One is a 7x 8x 7x World Champion with 105 race wins and 201 podiums.

The other is a 0x World Champion with 2 race wins and 14 podiums.

How is this even vaguely a comparison?

Who did better in 2022?

Wow.

I've only been watching F1 since the 80's. Everyone knows points count, but why have a head to head quali stat then?

Points can be manipulated with stuff like team orders.

Anyway, you do you.

It is what it is, that's why we argue talk about it. Except for DTS fan, even he doesn't know who he supports and doesn't like anymore...

Sainz is probably the best #2 driver on the grid. He's never going to win a WDC, but he's going to more or less put the car where it belongs. Rubens Barrichello-esque.

Sainz is the worst nr 2 driver. That is why he lost his spot and nobody but Williams wanted him. Your nr2 driver must be a team player and Sainz is not. How many times did he refuse to let Leclerc pass in 2022. Best thing to happen to Ferrari is see the back of him. No big team will sign him again

Now they replaced him with Hamilton, what do you think he's going to do?

No high-profile seats were available when Ferrari signed for Lewis because they were locked into contracts with their existing drivers.

And Sainz is a #2. As I said, no team capable of fighting for a WDC will sign him to be their lead driver. Ferrari literally just proved this. Charles is their guy long-term. Are you taking Sainz over Max, Charles or Lando/Oscar. No, you are not. He will lead a midfield team or play second fiddle to a superior driver at a contending team.

Red Bull wins the WCC this season of they had Sainz and not Perez.

Okay. Maybe I am mistaken.

Hamilton has a 12 point lead. Give Russell his missing 25 and he now has a 13 point lead. Remove 7 point from Hamilton (1st to 2nd) and that gives you a 20 point lead.

Where are the other 2 points?

Like I said, he does not want to play second fiddle. he has proven that at Ferrari. So then if you do not want to play second fiddle, you cannot be a good nr2 and no big team will want to sign you if you not a team player.
Oh and Merc did not have a replacement for Hamilton while Sainz was available.
