I certainly think so….
Lewis Hamilton has 9 podium finishes
Fernando Alonso has 6 podium finishes
Now the 3 races bahrain, canada, france where FA didnot make it to podium were all fault of mclaren. bad handling in bahrain, drive tru in canada, gearbox blowup in france, non of these are FA’s fault
Now in the 6 races he made to podium, in 4 of them FA beat LH
conclusion : LH just as good as FA not even greater than FA, forget abt being PRODIGICAL.
