Lewis Hamilton or Michael Schumacher? Williams boss an🌳d former Merced🍨es man James Vowles gives his view on the two F1 greats.

Williams F1 boss James Vowles believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton is the “most naturally talented driver” he’s worked with, even ahead of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Schumacher.
Vowles spent many years at Merced🌱es as their head of strategy, with his important calls on the pitwall contributing to big s𒈔uccess.
Mercedes remained unbeaten between 2014 and 2020 as Hamilton won six world titles; 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Rosberg won one.
At the end of 2022, Vowles left the team to join Williams as thei💧r team principal.
In his short time with the team, Vowles has impressed, guiding Williams to their best finish since 2017 with seventhꦑ in the standings.
Reflecting on his time at Mercedes, Vowles was full ꦐof praise💜 for Hamilton.
“I struggle to find another sport similar to this where it's a team sport, but it starts by beating yo🔜ur teammate. If you don't beat your teammate, you're in trouble - but that's just one fight.
“The key behind it is how everyone contributes 🐻to this success," Vowles said on the High Performance podcast.
“With Lewis, he was - and still is today - the🧜 most naturally talented driver I've worked with including Michael [Schumach෴er].”

Vowles noted an important shift in Ham🍎ilton’s mentality.
The 44-year-oldಌ explai꧟ned how Hamilton had a ‘win at all costs’ view, but soon changed it as he got older, focusing on the bigger picture.
“His mentality at the time [when he joined the team] was a brilliant one. It was 'I'm going to win every race at all costs' but if you speak to him today, he accepts that😼 it's the second places and third places that win championships.
“Working with the team on the days that you can't win the race will give you far mor♍e of a reward than pushing everyone away to win a☂ single race out of it.”
