He's certainly proven himself wrong, and I suspect quite a few doubters with it, because Lewis...
has been quite honest along the way, to be fair to him, that he has had plenty of doubts.
That goes back to his Mercedes struggles before the switch to Ferrari, the kind of mounting sense of concern and a bit of misery as that first Ferrari season went on.
I don't think he was lower than after Hungary qualifying last year.
Basically, yeah.
He said the team needs to consider replacing him or words to that effect.
But he came close to reaching that basement a few times through the year in terms of how he talked about himself.
And he admitted after Barcelona, didn't he, that there were moments, he said in the press conference, where he was thinking, oh, sheesh, they say that everybody loses it eventually.
Maybe he had.
That was his feeling.
And we know that Hamilton,
lives um lives very very closely to his emotions so when it's good it's great and when it's bad it's a disaster and his career is you know circling the drain so it was probably never quite as bad as he made out and therefore a lot of doubters wanted to make out as well likewise
He's had a run of races now that are clearly the most convincing he has had since joining Ferrari, arguably since losing the 2021 title too.
But the big question mark will always be, what kind of car will he have between now and the end of the season?
what kind of emotional wave will he be riding will it be a good one or a bad one because I think that will dictate a lot of not only his own performances but his mindset and kind of how he goes about things and those two things are very very closely linked for someone like Lewis yeah I think there's two components to that lack of confidence he was feeling last year there was the fact that
Yeah, there's absolutely no doubt that this is a much better version of Hamilton than we have seen pretty much at any point in the ground effect era.
There were moments, and those moments were enough, I think, not necessarily in isolation, but in combination with the move to Ferrari, that just made you think, the peak's still there, or if not, let's say the 2020 peak or whatever...
a really, really, really high peak is still there.
But is that representative of what he can still be?
Or is that more representative of what he was and can occasionally get to, but just kind of the window is just a bit too narrow now.
