Who is stronger technically : Massa or Hamilton?

Question

I can't help but to feel strongly that Massa has what it takes to beat Hamilton. As for Kimi and alonso, they need consistency. What is your thoughts on this issue?

How about Kubica, what would you say about his skills and talents. Would you rate him as the best among the rest (apart from the big 4 above-mentioned) ?

Answer 1

.

Depends on which circuit...Massa can be excellent on some, mediocre on others.

Hamilton is more of an "all-rounder" and is especially good in the wet, but has a problem with tyre degradation due to his throw-it-in-and-sort-it-out style.

Kubica would give either a run for their money with the same equipment.

For me, LH followed closely by Kubica, Alonso, Massa in the same car on most circuits.

Answer 2

Massa, is better for me. at least, he doesn't get ashamed if he comes 2nd.

Answer 3

Of course M. Schumacher is the best driver, but Hamilton isn't that far behind. Once he masters the car, he very well could be getting as many Wins as Schumi. Personally, I don't like Massa or Alonso, but they are both very good. Kubica is also very good and he could win more if he was in a better car.

Answer 4

Kubica is the best driver if he was in a McLaren he would win quite easily

As for Massa and Hamilton Massa has the better car but Hamilton is the better driver

Answer 5

Hamilton is the stronger of the two. Both drivers are very strong when leading but the difference is when Hamilton is 2nd/3rd/4th his head doesn't drop and continues to push the car to the limit giving a steady pace.

Massa however seems for some reason to not run at the same pace and his times become quite erratic

Kubica is a great talent. He is very good at qualifying and has only made one mistake throughout the whole season (Silverstone race)

Answer 6

I don't know about technically but IMO Lewis is more consistent than Felipe. sometimes Felipe seems to be a bit 'scrappy' on the track, but that is just my opinion

Answer 7

It depends what you mean by technical.  For me technical drivers are the ones like Fangio, Brabham, Stewart, Lauda, Prost and Schumacher that can develop and set up any car.

Technically it is a tough call between Massa and Hamilton.  Hamilton is not experienced enough yet and it takes a few years of F1 experience to truly learn technical development.

Some drivers just don't have it.  I have always thought that Massa and Kimi especially are not technical drivers.  Alonso is currently the strongest technically.

In my opinion having two non-technical drivers in a team causes damage to long-term development, such as reliability

I think the star is definitely Kubica.  He is only a few points behind Kimi in a vastly slower car.  

If Kubi or Alonso were driving the Ferrari, I think they would be leading the championship.  If someone like Schu or Professor Prost was driving the Ferrari, the title race would effectively be over.

Answer 8

i would say Lewis because he is more Consistant i think only Failures i.e punctures its hardly down to driver error

+ Hamilton makes up more places when he is not on the front row more than Massa

Kubica is i think the 4th best driver in the driver line up
