At no point did I ever imply that Bottas was "crap". He is the perfect #2 driver but I doubt he will ever be a world champion. It is also inappropriate to use the word "inherently". It makes no sense.
It seems that Russel very well could have won in Abu Dhabi. It's also possible that he could have lost. But we will never know, will we?
I do not live in England so I feel no obligation to treat Lewis as anything other than a great driver. I certainly do find him to be demanding and even petulant. I have said nothing but great things about his skills as a driver but as a human being, he is flawed and not a god.
Curiously, just how do you know what's in his contract?
There is a particular accusation that has not reared its head. I'm sure it will show up soon........
