I wasn't talking about any extra advantage . I was making a logical point to explain why Alonso and his team solve their problems really fast! It was actually a compliment about the way Alonso and his team work that I made there!!!!!
And who told you that I don't accept Kimi's weaknesses? Discussing about problems doesn't automaticaly means that I believe he is perfect and everyone else is to blame!
You were using that excuse to justify their points difference. Ricciardo has shown that your theory is just an irrelevant factor that can be ignored. A good driver can adapt to new regulations, new car, new team quite quickly and beat his teammate. That is what Ricciardo has shown this year.
If you accepted his weanesses you wouldn't come here with that theory.
It's clear that FA is doing a better job, but it is a pointless comparison between the two drivers at this stage.
How can you compare a driver who says I did "71 qualifying laps" to a driver who says he struggles to put one decent lap together.
So when they are in different teams we can say Kimi is the most talented driver in the history of the universe, he has the best raw speed, his qualifying skills are amazing. Alonso is just a hardworker who qualifyies slow and so on.
Now they are in the same team, I thought that finally we could compare their performance since they are driving the same car but not, apparently we still have to wait, I don't know how many months more, maybe until your favorite driver is faster than Alonso? righ?, if that happens. That day you will come here and you will tell us "I told you" "I knew, Kimi is better than ALonso"....
The fact Alonso was able to drive 71 qualifying laps with that horrible car shows how good he is, and how much better he is than Kimi.
I don't remember Alonso in any team, any year saying "The car does not suit my driving style". Maybe I am wrong, but I think he has never used that excuse.
