Interesting stat, Senna died at a young age of 34 winning 3 championships and 41 races yet Hammy 35 years young has 6 championships and 92 race wins to his credit and many still think Senna No 1 including yourself.
Obviously nothing wrong with that as its opinions. However, having watched the great Senna for so many years before his tragic death I still think Hammy the better driver. I know many things have changed and it is really hard to compare but Hammy really can feel things in a car that other great drivers just don't feel.
This is one of his many qualities that stand out. When a driver finishes 25 seconds behind driving the same motor it tells you all you need to know.
No matter what our thoughts Senna & Hamilton are graced with being the two best drivers we've all had the pleasure of watching with a Schmacher close 3rd.
No doubt Senna, Hamilton & Schumacher are the greatest drivers I've ever had the privilege to see race.
Senna still the best for me.
The great what if, what could he have won if things had been different at Imola. 6 or 7 titles no doubt, for me.
There is no "what if" with Hamilton.
He has always been in a winning car, and his timing with the switch to Mercedes (in hindsight) was perfect.
Mercedes have learned from Hamilton v Rosberg. That's why Bottas stays as Hamilton's teammate.
A 1.5 rather than two number 1 drivers.
Hamilton is the embodiment of a perfect F1 career.
I didn't think Schumacher's titles and wins would ever be beaten.
When Hamilton stops, I don't think his records will ever be beaten.
For example, Max would have to race on until 40 to match Lewis at this rate.
