Jackie Stewart: Mercedes a 'long term risk' for Lewis Hamilton
Jackie Stewart認為Mercedes對於Hamilton而言是〝長期性的風險〞

Jackie Stewart believes Lewis Hamilton is taking a risk for his long-term
future by joining a manufacturer team in Mercedes.
Jackie Stewart認為Hamilton加入Mercedes車隊對於他的長遠的未來來說是個風險.

Three-time Formula 1 champion Stewart says the potential for Mercedes to
abruptly withdraw from the sport if it underperformed would unnerve him in
Hamilton's position.
三屆世界冠軍Stewart談到如果車隊無法讓Hamilton有充分的表現,那麼Mercedes車隊
可能就要退出F1.

"I think Ross Brawn is a wonderful man. I think Daimler Benz is one of the
greatest companies in the history of motorsport," said Stewart on the
AUTOSPORT Stage with KX at AUTOSPORT International.
"我認為Ross Brawn是個完美的人,我認為Daimler Benz在賽車史上是其中一家傑出的
廠商"Stewart在Autosport接受採訪時如此表示.

"But they have to win. The Silver Arrow has to win.
"但是他們必須要贏.銀箭(Mercedes車隊)必須要贏"

"Whether it was Stirling Moss and [Juan Manuel] Fangio, whether it was
[Rudolf] Caracciola and the other great drivers of the thirties, when
Mercedes were in the sport they had to win.
"無論是Stirling Moss和[Juan Manuel] Fangio,無論是[Rudolf] Caracciola和其他三十
年代的偉大車手,當Mercedes(身為廠隊時,)他們能夠取勝."

"And if they don't win, they get out.
"而且如果(未來)他們無法取勝,他們就準備打包回家."

"That's the risk. If for whatever reason, they do not win, it's a five-minute
board meeting decision with a bunch of people on the board who are not
passionate about motorsport.
"這是一個風險.如果因為任何因素,他們無法獲勝,這是因為一群對於賽車運動沒有熱情
的人在五分鐘之內開的董事會議所做下的決定."
(這話我翻譯的不很好 但若文意無誤的話 這砲火可猛烈了)

"They like the results if they win. If they don't win, it's yesterday. And
that takes five minutes.
"如果他們能獲勝,他們會喜歡這樣的結局.如果他們無法獲勝,這也不過是昨天的事.而且
這也只需要五分鐘."(說高層不用心?)

"If you were looking at it in a conservative fashion, you'd say 'I've got to
stick with McLaren because I know they're always going to be racers'. They
will never be out of motor racing."
"如果你以一種保守的風氣去看待(參賽)這件事,你應該說'我應該繼續留在McLaren,因為
我知道他們(應該是指McLaren)總是在F1中當競爭者.他們(這邊應該也同樣是指McLaren)
從來沒有自F1退出過."

Stewart also believes Hamilton's inconsistency remains a stumbling block for
the 2008 F1 world champion.
Stewart也認為Hamilton的反覆無常是Hamilton的絆腳石.

"When he's on form, he is the quickest," said the legendary Scot. "But [his
ability] to do it consistently is not yet there."
"當他(Hamilton)狀況好的時候,他會是最快的車手"Stewart說."但是Hamilton在Mercedes
車隊無法持續充分發揮他的能力."
