Mercedes knows how to pick their drivers. Everytime.

Watching Kimi today, All I can say is:

Mercedes picks the correct drivers. Always.

1. Michael: 7 time WDC perfect to help launch new car

2. Rosberg: Rapid driver who had the most intense of seasons with 2 G.O.A.T.s before winning in 2016

3. Hamilton

4. Bottas: Perfect second driver for a G.O.A.T. , took almost a third of all the poles in Mercedes during his partnership with Hamilton,

5. George: Might sound like an outlier right now, but he was picked by Mercedes and put in that Williams. Drove his heart out for those 3 years, including the Shakir stint. Joined full time in 2022, and did well against Lewis even if it was not Lewis’s best generation of cars. Has multiple wins, but seems like he’s had a bad run this year, with only 2 podiums (1 win) but found his groove in Canada till the car gave up.

6. Kimi: Such magnificence. 4 wins 1 podium. Toto had his eyes on him since a while, and made him skip F3, and jump into F1 after just 1 F2 season. People thought he was being overoptimistic. But Kimi is proving them wrong. And today, he was just brilliant. Did not expect him to pull off such a tight one in quali.

Well done Mercedes, and Grande Kimi.
