Webber and Coulthard point out Bottas' lack of aggression
Every winter, it's the same song. Valtteri Bottas claims to have found the magic potion to overcome his teammate at Mercedes Lewis Hamilton. The bellows lasts for a while then falls again and the Englishman dominates the Finn for the rest of the season.
After a new identical pattern in 2019, former drivers Mark Webber and David Coulthard pointed out the weaknesses of the former resident Williams. “When it comes to wheel-to-wheel combat, the hunger to fight is often what he lacks », asserts the Australian on the Channel 4 podcast, On the marbles.
The Scot has targeted consistency as a priority for Valtteri Bottas in 2020. “ Above all, he must start by getting ahead of Lewis on Saturday, which he did well, but beyond that he must constantly stay ahead of him in the race. This is where I think Lewis is one of the best drivers, the close duel. »
The problem is summed up tersely by “D.C.” “It’s hard to imagine what else he could do because it all comes down to lap time and on-track action. The rest is of little importance. »
