That's a great point. Plenty of drivers who turned out good were making lots of mistakes in bad cars, overdriving or what have you. Also some in great cars make bad mistakes or cannot repass the field even in the best car... Bottas comes to mind.

Hamilton (much as I am not a fan) starting dead last in a Mercedes is *still* a threat for a win. I'd say Ricciardo too in a good car... Max might crash in the process but has a shot as well... Not sure I'd put many more drivers in that list... not Magnussen or Grosjean for sure. These days not Vettel either...
