I am glad to see Rosberg continually getting the better of Lewis. He has had much longer to get to know the car, and Rosberg is making the best of it. Lewis has to catch up, but I am sure he will. He says its the brake feel that makes him lack confidence in some corners, and once (if that was true) he is past that, he will be closer to Rosberg, and I think he will eventually be ahead of him. But it won't be easy. Rosberg showed Schumey a clean pair of heels most of the time, and that was no fluke. In fact, I'm sure Schumey is now wondering if he was right to chuck in the towel, as Lewis is being beaten by Rosberg just as he had been, and Lewis is normally considered one of the fastest drivers in the grid; if not the very fastest.
As a psychological test, Lewis is failing it. He'll overcome it, but its interesting to see him getting rattled by his teammate's speed. It reminds me of Asafa Powell. Whenever Asafa Powell is put under immense pressure, and he feels its possible that he might not win, he tends to go into himself, and crumbles. Maybe crumbles is a bit harsh on Lewis, but its just how it looks at the moment.
All the fun of the fair.
And this time, my buddy bodieanddoyle might be nodding in agreement.
