Yeah, let's see if he able to achieve championship with the underpowered car. Alonso and Vettel failed to achieve that on previous inferior Ferrari. Since now Hamilton on the 2nd/3rd best car on the grid, achieve the championship will raise his "GOAT" status. Haha
Well Alonso was able to win during Renault time with slightly lesser car then Schumy's Ferrari and Kimi's McLaren! Seb & Ham are the ones who have not yet won the title with slightly lesser cars so yeah if Ham can pull this off, then he will raise his status. This achievement is actually really rare in F1 and only a handful of drivers were able to do it, only Alonso 2005/06 and Senna 91 and maybe 90 as far as I can remember since I started following F1. The rest like Piquet, Prost, Mansell, Schumy, Hakinen, JV, Damon, Kimi, Ham, JB, Seb, & Nico all won on top machinery.

Yeah, especially considering the fact Mercedes poor drivability at Monaco and Singapore tracks. Currently Hamilton done damage limitation at Monaco, let's see how he perform at upcoming Singapore.
lol, ppl start to comparing Vettel with Schumacher. How he helped miserable Ferrari back to glory, teamwork, defending team when team principal giving lesson etc...

Well no surprise coz got many similarities, both German, very fast, in the same team, trying to win the title back for Ferrari, and Seb idolizes Schumy. Some differences: Schumy seems better in the wet, Ferrari was in a weaker state when Schumy joined and Ferrari rebuilt the team from the ground up with many totally new personnel, they seem more cunning with cheating, Schumy had absolute no.1 status through out.

McLaren was still a top team with a top machinery in that time. 1990 is basically a modified 1989 car while 1991 car is all-new car with V12 engine. Go check back
Honourable mentions: Keke Rosberg winning in an old-school naturally aspirated V8 engine while beating turbo cars but at that time turbo engines weren't reliable enough to finish a race.

In 1990, Ferrari was considered the slightly better and more advanced car with the semi auto gearbox developed since 89. In 1991, Williams was considered the slightly faster car and again more advanced than Mclaren with the active suspension. Williams kept that momentum going to build the all conquering 1992-93 cars.
