I’m a lot late to the party but whatever, I 110% back what Nigel has said here. This guy has been a journalist in formula 1 for many decades (I even have a book on the 1986 f1 season published by him). Basically, this guy knows what he’s talking about. Firstly he’s British so he’d prefer Hamilton to Alonso. Secondly he’s studied F1 for decades so he could definitely rank the best drivers from Senna to Prost and Schumacher to Alonso. And if your a long time fan yourself you probably would’ve known that Alonso is high up as one of the greats. And as of 2007, yeah Hamilton could technically be considered a rookie however all these people mentioning it in the comments have no idea how gifted Hamilton was growing up and the championships he gathered in his youth. The fact is those drivers were both very young at the time and it could have been a toss up. But Raikkonen took the title anyways so who actually cares.

The problem is that F1 is a sport of engineers more than drivers nowadays. It's very difficult to say "what if" or "if this person had this car", so it's very difficult to say Alonso is better or worse than Hamilton or any others, because Hamilton has always had fantastic cars. So at the end of the day all we can say is that both Alonso and Hamilton are drivers out of this world

For those who argue about 2007. A. Alonso simply had a bad year. IT CAN FUCKING HAPPEN YOU KNOW. Messi for example hadnt scored for 12 games in a row i believe back in 2015 but did anyone say he is not the best or at least one of? NO! He simply had a tough period it happens to the best too. B. Stop with the rookie nonsense. Hamilton came from a drivers academy and even before the first race he had put 1000+ laps in the car which is equivellant to almost two full seasons mind you. C. Lets not forget they tied, hamilton didnt win. D. What alonso did in 2012 noone else would have gotten near to achieve other than maybe msc/senna/lauda.... I mean to me hamilton is definetely top 5 of all time i dont say he is worse than alonso but i cant say he is better. If i had to pick one it would be alo. He is just a more complete driver. Hamiltons strength is qualifying.

Hamilton was clearly the better performer in 2007 with the pitlane error in china being his only error (which was partly his mistake but anyway) in his rookie season. Alonso should be ashamed of letting a rookie getting near him let alone beating him. Again you have no proof of what you say, you just jump in the same train that all your fellow Alonso fanboys do. And no im not english im greek and i was rooting for Alonso in 2006 but you should appreciate someones performance and stop barking. Hamilton was clearly better in 2007.

Massa's analysis of Schumacher and Alonso isn't exactly a fair comparison. By the time he raced in the same team Schumacher was a 7-time champion who had been racing for 15-years, married with children and contemplating retirement. There is no chance he was at the peak of his physical abilities or his commitment to the sport. Conversely, Alonso was still hungry, beached on two titles and still smarting from his disastrous one year stint at McLaren. I'd also suggest that Massa was never quite the same driver after he took the spring face at the Hungaroring, the year before he teamed-up with Alonso. I've always enjoyed Roebuck's writing but I'm surprised he places so much weight on Massa's opinion without taking into account the context.

Schumacher changed the landscape of Formula one forever. He brought a level of professionalism and fitness never seen before. Every driver of the modern era is a carbon copy of Schumi in terms of their fitness and their commitment to their team. Also, I can’t think of any other driver for whom the rules were changed multiple times to stop them from winning, as they were for Schumacher. Of course Massa would say Alonso was the better team mate. He’s not the same driver he was in 2006 before his accident, and his performances from 2010-2013 have been dismal. And lastly, Massa was only team mates to Schumi near the end of his first career. I’d love to see anyone up against Michael in the era 1994 - 2002 when he was operating at his absolute peak, and would’ve come out on top against anyone. He’ll always be remembered for Jerez in 1997, but in terms of driving, his ability was a universe apart from anyone else, to drag that uncompetitive Ferrari to almost winning the title. What Alonso did in 2012 was a poor man’s version of what Michael did in 1997. The fact that Schumacher was a contender for the title every year from 1994 - 2006 (except for 2005) speaks volumes.

terkmadugga Schumi dominated the sport because he also had the best car and was unchallenged by any driver including his teammates. As many trophies as Schumacher had he also had many controversies of cheating. From taking out Damon Hill in 94 to doing the same thing to Jacques Villeneuve in 97 (where Schumi was *stripped of championship points. Surprised you omitted that fact*) to stopping in the middle of Rascasse in the 2006 Monaco GP to stop Alonso's flying lap during qualifying therefore securing his own pole in the race to Ferrari's meddling (getting Massa to complain against Alonso's Renault in the 2006 Italian GP giving Alonso a grid penalty despite stewards saying Alonso did not impede Massa), team orders and etc. Michael's name is not entirely clean. Btw, Alonso didn't just drag that noncompetitive car in 2012. He did it in 2010, 2012 and 2013 with Ferrari. When he won his second title with Renault. Ferrari was the faster car of the two due to mid season improvements. Schumi and Ferrari did everything in their power to stop Alonso that year.

Well I dont think so. Driving fast is not what makes one the best. I don't think he is a good team player, a development driver and a motivator for his engineers. I could be wrong though. It would be interesting to see how McLaren stands up to other Renault powered teams next year.

You sir are not wrong. Fernando cannot develop a car. Neither can jenson. He had the might of renault, ferrari and now mclaren yet he still languishes at the back? why? How can a driver with, accord to some, extraordinary speed, but so unlucky? Maybe because he's not that good! Look at seb? 1 year at ferrari and he's winning? The car improves. Year on end, alfonso cars get worse and worse. How can he be the best and still always at the back?

I remember the last time Nigel Roebuck made any sense. And it was back well before Alonso waxed a gap in the middle of his single eyebrow. He offers no real evidence or examples as to why a guy who has only produced victories when in a dominant car with subservient teammates. Even then he needed his main opponents to suffer from bad luck and questionable FIA intervention to beat them. You cannot be the"Best driver of the century" with generally above- average qualifying pace, reasonable yet over-rated racecraft and a primadonna attitude. Even if you were to look past his dodginess( e.g his involvement in Spygate, impeding rookie teammate Hamilton in pitlane, escaping any reprimand for Spygate, etc.etc), his results dont support Roebucks claim.

i call that BS.. he never parked a good car. It was quite obvious this weekend, when he tried to stay on track with a damaged car no matter what, and only had to retire as damage was just too much to continue... or another example - when his car died during Q1 in Hungary 2015, he tried to push the car to the pit zone, so they could restart it so he could continue.. he couldnt of course, but still, its not a behavior of somebody, who would just park a perfectly working car.

Hamilton wasn`t able to beat Alonso in 2007 with all the team backing up Lewis. They ended up tied in points and Kimi took the championship. And that is the only year Alonso didn`t beat his teammate. After that Alonso never had a car in a position to win a championship, though he almost won in 2012. Best driver of the 21st century.

Do you remember the 1996 ferrari?? It was the worst. Irvine said it was a piece of junk and most undrivebale. Schumacher won 2 Races & 5 podiums in it. Massa was better than Barrichello but he joined Ferrari wen Michael was in the verge of retirement & he was grooming Massa to be his successor at Ferrari. 2007 & 2008 was Michael's championship had he continued at Ferrari. Kimi & Massa struggled to take the Championship till the end., Michael would have sealed the championship a couple of races before. Cars in the 1990's were more difficult to drive & the drivers Schumacher raced were Senna, Prost, Mansell. Alonso is really good no doubt, but remember he was beaten by a rookie in 2007 in a similar car. In terms of pace & pure talent Michael is the best. Alonso surely is in the top & top 3 this decade

Rob B, You can't compare Hamilton to a rookie now. Hamilton drove on almost all the tracks F1 raced in GP2. Also, the testing wasn't limited like now so Hamilton had zillion miles under his belt before 2007. Lastly, Hamilton was generally quicker in qualifying but in races, Alonso had the slight edge. Alonso never was a great qualifier, even Trulli beat him.

Everybody who is considered for GOAT brings something to the table greater than those before them. Schumi took professionalism and dedication to another level. Senna kicked up the level of ruthlessness. Prost is the pinnacle of strategic racing. Hamilton is the greatest raw talent. Alonso? Greatest complainer. Greatest demotivator. Greatest number of teams driven for in a career. Vettel - greatest number of empty post-race apologies.

How do people come up with this stuff? Either you put up the numbers or you dont. Using his teammate to judge how good he is when not in a race winning car means nothing. Just means he is better than that 1 driver, and him doing better doesnt automatically mean he is pushing the car beyond its limits and gettin it up to places it shouldnt be.. because to say that would mean you are assuming his teammate is extracting every ounce of performance from the car and Alonso is finding more.. which is probably unlikely. Whats more likely happening is, his teammate is getting like 90% of the cars potential and he is getting 95-100%.. and he is putting the car exactly where it belongs and its his teammate thats coming up short. Not saying Alonso isnt good, but for now.. all you can say for sure is that Alonso is better than his teammate.. you cant compare him to Hamilton or Vettel.
