Question

Who is / was better at McLaren? Lewis Hamilton or Kimi Raikkonen?

Answer 1

 Kimi Raikkonen. He never had a reliable enough car. People keep on saying that he kept "breaking" cars, when apparently his teammates David Coulthard and Juan Pablo Montoya also had a lot of reliability problems between 2002-2006. So its either all 3 of them were car breakers or McLaren had a poor car in terms or reliabilty. I would say that it was the latter.

Lewis Hamilton has had an exceptional reliabilty record. In his 4 years at McLaren (2006-2010), he has had 2 reliability issues afair. Thats brilliant tbh! Is it somethin to do with him or something to do with the car? Alonso is 2007 had a gearbox in French GP qualifying, thats all I remember. So in 2007 McLaren had 1 reliability issue taking into account both drivers. This clearly has something to do with the car I'd say. In 2008-2009, Heikki had 1 or 2 reliabilty issues afair and Lewis had 1 (Abu Dhabi 2009). In 2010, Lewis had 1 Hungary but I don't think Jenson had any or did he? Anyhow you can clearly see that all McLaren drivers between 2007-2010 have a v. good record in terms of reliabilty and all McLaren drivers between 2002-2006 had a poor record in terms of reliabilty, so saying that Kimi is a car breaker is jsut bullshit.

In terms of performance, in my opinion, Lewis is definitely fast but fragile. Kimi was fast, mostly consistent and more focussed on track. At times Lewis accuses his own team on the pit radio, did you ever saw Kimi doing that? As a matter of fact, how often do you see drives accusing their own teams, hardly. With Lewis you see it quite often, thats sad tbh. What my opinion is that Kimi was a complete driver, Lewis still has a lot to brush up. McLaren for life, Hail Mclaren!
