Aggressive driving not just about overtaking
Lewis Hamilton was still making positive noises about his car and world championship chances, despite seeing a second-place finish in Spain disappear with a burst tyre. In the same race, Sebastien Vettel saw the reliability issues that have dogged his season so far reappear with a break problem that meant he had to nurse his car through the final 12 laps.
These issues have made me think whether these problems were purely down to engineering issues, or whether the type of driver could result in more reliability issues. Being an aggressive driver does not just mean making daring overtaking manoeuvres, but simply driving in an aggressive way and causing much more wear and tear on tyres, breaks and suspension. Could this mean that a velvety smooth driver like Jenson Button will always suffer fewer set-backs than Hamilton and Vettel?
