He just keeps coming.
I'm not downgrading Max but his first real championship level drive was this years' win. His other wins have been flashy and fast but that doesn't make a championship level win. A championship level win is calm, relentless, measured while displaying bursts-of-speed-at-will and restraint when necessary. Max was perfect in his win this year...perfect. As of that win, Max is now a championship level driver. The ones on the grid now, IMHO are: HAM, MAX, RIC, LEC and RAI. No other drivers on the 2020 grid are there.

When you think about it from a laymans perspective it always comes down to the car.Over and over again I read from fans it's HAM's car that makes the difference and their opinion should not be ignored. He should enjoy it naturally and I have no doubt he will achieve another 3 race wins to finally overtake Schumi's tally and equal his seven championships.
