As evidence, last weekend in Singapore, when he drove into Mick Schumacher's Haas and got all indignant until his race engineer had to remind him who hit who.

Evidenced also by George's interpretation of the 'along side' rule in Austria (?) this year. He was literally saying that if he lunged and got along side another car in a turn the other driver had to leave him space. Total nonsense but he was soooooo sure of himself and it came off very bad.

I think Schumi was worthy. There were some douche things at times but he arrived to a broken Ferrari and he, along with Ross Braun, the Jean Todt, and others turned it into something. Hammy arrived to Merc after Schumi and Nico had put in some work and on the eve of the hybrid era that Merc guessed right on and became dominate.
We could extend this to Seb as well.
