Toto on Max’s 10 in a row: Our situation was different because we had two guys fighting against each other within the team. I don’t know whether he cares about the record. It’s not something that would be important for me, any of those numbers. It’s for Wikipedia. Nobody reads that anyway
I mean Hamilton had always had a winning car in all his career, no?
Mostly yes. At McLaren it was borderline winning, certainly not dominant though. And his first year at Merc (before the new regs came into force) was also not a winning car.
Until 2009. When he started lying to stewards, vocally complaining about how bad the car was, and posting confidential telemetry data to twitter.
He always managed to win, but the last few McLarens he drove weren’t really up to scratch
