I really want this man to get number 8 in Ferrari red

It really would be the fairytale ending for his career in my eyes but after last year I'm being a lot more... realistic with myself.

Mansell, Prost, Alonso and Vettel all had the same dream…

Exactly. Makes it all the more fairytale lol

Now the real test, is it the race engineer or is it Hamilton.

Radios were rough last year.

I understand Hamilton's frustrations, but some of his comments seemed unnecessarily harsh.

I wonder who will replace Adami.

I think it's pretty clear that Adami and Hamilton simply have very different communication styles and were not a good fit. Nothing more than that.
