    I’d say he has an incredible talent to join teams when they’re in an uncompetitive slump.

    FI and Renault during his tenure were mid-tier at best.

      Yeah because elite teams don’t want him.

        In fairness, Mercedes wanted him to replace Rosberg but he’d just signed with another team, Renault maybe.

        But it’s not always a meritocracy. Teams might choose drivers for money, sponsors, marketability, stuff like that.

          This further proves why Hulk doesn’t deserve a spot.
