MODERATORS
Bottas got a lot of shit but he was almost always up there with Lewis on quali pace (or beat him) and then delivered on Sunday with good pace to put it on the podium. Did struggle to recover on Sunday through DRS trains though if he had quali issues but you could probably put some of that blame on the old cars
Bottas was treated way too unfairly by the fans imo. He was consistent as fuck, and played a crucial role in Merc's winning years.
Bottas was never too good at wheel to wheel racing and charging through the pack, but his quali performances meant he didn't have to. That 100+ Q3 streak is amazing.
