Look at Kimi; when's the last time he hasn't had a problem with his car, relative to his teammate?
Bottas just doesn't seem to have a killer instinct. It's early though so maybe he can get it sorted out, provided it's the car and not him. I had high hopes for him, but it could be too late. He's looking more and more like a #2 driver. Heck, Wehrlein would probably be doing just as well.

As for Kimi, he's had horrible luck. Again, assuming it's really the car and not him. Some guys are harder on their equipment. Hamilton certainly is.
