Lewis Hamilton, Can He? Will He?

With a 36-point deficit in the Drivers’ Championship, can and will Lewis Hamilton win his fourth title in 2016? Will Nico Rosberg’s lady luck shine all season long?

Apart from Hamilton’s race notes, Rosberg needs to read and learn from his party notes. Burger King, like really? And we ask the question everyone wants to – are Hamilton’s off-track activities making him lose focus on-track? He might not have anymore jokers left, but isn’t he the joker himself?
APPLAUD! All 22 cars finished the 2016 Chinese Grand Prix, 3 different teams made it to the podium and Fernando Alonso finished his first full race of the season. APPLAUD! (Read: Alonso, The Unluckiest Double World Champion?)
Could Raikkonen and Ricciardo have raced to the podium had it not been for their opening lap issues? Also, did Mercedes try too hard to get Hamilton to test all of Pirelli’s compounds in China? We tell you why Force India is a dream team as they ‘follow their leader’ and has Haas run out of ‘beginner’s luck’?

Finally, 22 minutes to dry a damp patch on the main straight? Whoever said that the Chinese are most efficient! (Read: Why The Chinese GP Is Shorter!)
