Mercedes have made a splendid showing of taking care of Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg as decently as could be expected under the circumstances over the span of two sometimes peevish Formula 1 seasons.
They have done as such by running race technique in a manner that lessens the shots of intra-team rubbing while giving every driver however much of a chance as could reasonably be expected to win the race. As a team, that is precisely the correct thing to do – augment the aggregate result while likewise permitting the drivers to race openly, inside of specific parameters set by the team. Then again, for the outside world, it can regularly prompt grands prix like that in Brazil last Sunday, where the drivers’ capacity to race and go out on a limb trying to beat their opponent is traded off by the team’s prerequisite to adhere to a pre-decided system. Only for one race, Mercedes could attempt an alternate way to deal with expansion the amusement estimation of a season finale which generally could do not have a touch of interest – in case we’re straightforward.
The drivers and their separate designers could lead procedure for themselves. Ordinary standards apply – they can’t collide with one another – yet Hamilton and Rosberg run their own particular races, without being confined by the more extensive team’s wish.
On the off chance that it was going to work, the drivers would need to acknowledge obligation regarding what happens – whether it be losing the race to their team-mate or notwithstanding letting Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel in.
Hamilton and Rosberg would need to acknowledge that they would have the team to reply to on the off chance that they humiliated them. Hamilton and Rosberg said, “We lost because of my choices, I accept that, it was a one-off just for the fans. The team would have won had we done it their way.” And so on. The main issue in the greater part of this is the team’s essential point is to win, and after that to secure the most ideal completion – an one-two – and which driver completions ahead in that situation is auxiliary.
The main time that is not the case is whether they are in a title fight with a driver from another team and they settle on a choice that one driver has a vastly improved possibility of beating that opponent and/or one of the Mercedes drivers drops out of dispute.
