I see Ricciardo is belittling Hamilton’s pole lap saying any top driver could take pole in a Mercedes, meanwhile he can’t even out-qualify his own teammate. Those 5 wins and a pole have really gone to his head. I’d love for him to go to Mercedes next year just so Hamilton could out him in his place.

Meanwhile, Ricciardo moves forward through the field to 4th place, beating his team mate, and putting in a spirited drive challenging Raikkonen for a podium til the end.

At the same time. Hamilton, driving the fastest car in the field, raised the white flag when things got all too hard for him. So much so that Vettel could afford an error and still not lose the lead.

After all, a true champion never gives up and fights to the end.

MB≥Hamilton.

Relative to the cars they drove, Ricciardo was better than Hamilton in 14, 16 & 17 seasons. If they were driving for MB, Hamilton would indeed put Ricciardo in his place.

That being 1st place.
