Yeah Norris is fantastic. He's driving that McLaren higher than it should be. I rate him 2nd on the grid after Verstappen. I think both of them would beat Hamilton in equal cars. Hamilton/Norris would go either way in a given weekend, Hamilton/Verstappen would just be an epic beating in...
I doubt it. No team would sign him if that ever came to light. And I'm pretty sure if Hamilton signs a new contract, he'll want Bottas next to him. Because he knows he's easily beat, and a doormat. And the last thing Hamilton wants is a driver like Verstappen or Norris next to him. Maybe even...
The team put him there when they sacrificed his qualifying for Hamilton's. And he'd have finished 2nd in Monaco if the team didn't fuck him at his pit stop.
Bottas wasn't struggling, he was sacrificed to elevate "sir" Ham's qualifying position. His "mature" tweet was a necessity after Monaco's sincere comments where he blamed the team, and he was just perfect.
