Show me where I say he is a "failure" or a "loser". Go ahead. Where?

Toto is, in large part, responsible for all of that. It's the team philosophy that he has built and continues to encourage. The entire motorsports world is touting this as the main reason for their success.
I see that too, but then he obviously plays favorites. Maybe that is his way. Protecting the LF wheel gun guy is the latest example. Actually making Bottas dance for his supper is the latest one. I think Nikki Lauda did a LOT to foster open communication among the team. A lot of people have already forgotten him already. Nikki was both ruthless in his honesty and encouraging and gave a lot of pats on the back. You could trust him.
