(Thread) Something to pass your time: Two of the most talented drivers F1 (and all of motorsports) has seen in the 21st century, @LewisHamilton and @alo_oficial, fighting in the 2013 German GP.

Pure racing at its best. #F1 #ImolaGP
2013 Canadian GP: Hamilton lifts entering the DRS zone so he could be behind Alonso and get DRS, Fernando realizes what Lewis is trying to do and slows to stay behind him and have DRS. Top notch awareness and racecraft from both of them. Credit: @F1.
2013 Spa: Hamilton has DRS up Kemmel and has a shot to overtake him. Alonso waits until the last second to use his KERS and defend his position.
2012 Silverstone: Alonso tries the switchback multiple times, Hamilton fights back into Brooklands before Alonso's persistence finally pays off. Silverstone has consistently produced great racing in recent years.
2017 Mexican GP: Hamilton and Alonso's cars might have been in different universes in terms of performance, but that didn't stop Fernando from having some fun and giving Lewis a fight. It makes you wonder what could've been had they been in similar cars for the hybrid era.
