I too think Hamilton is overrated. No doubt at all, he is a very talented driver, and he rarely makes stupid mistakes and crashes in practice or even worse in qualifying. He understands the old adage, to finish first, first you must finish. He has a crazy record of finishing races. A big part of that is his car almost never breaks down. Even when a tire shreds on the last lap, he can win a race.
So it is not just the car, but no doubt he has had THE best car on track for most of the last 8 years. It is nice to see him in mid pack and struggling to pass, and seeing his teammate finishing way ahead. It is a long season and the point after the last race is the real measure. Then we will know if his skills can match his teammate.
