Sirotkin's having an almost impossibly bad season. His average finish (when finishing) position is 14.7; on average, there have been only 15.8 finishers at the end of every race. None of the other backmarkers are particularly close to that level of futility...as bad as the Williams appears to be, Sirotkin's even worse.
Even though I'm a Lewis fan, I do feel sorry for Bottas. He outqualified Lewis yesterday and he's done nothing wrong today. He's the sacrificial lamb for Lewis to win the Championship.
Usually maximises the potential of that car, and then some. He started this weekend really poorly but sorted it right out to be best of ‘Division 2’ by a mile. Future champ and will put the fear into Seb even next year.
I'll be looking at the odds for him to better Seb next season, don't think he's ever been Alonso/Hamilton level. Hamilton is just getting better and better really, scary good.
