He has proven it over the years. Similar to Jenson Button. It's not the fastest way of course. Guys like Max and Lewis can drive fast and balance out the wear but they aren't really the best if you ask them to drive a long steady stint.
Yes, they are .. especially Lewis was able to show that over the couple of years, as he was rarely in danger of any attack. He picked up fastest laps on olf 40+ laps hards. Same goes for Max, for example his 1st win in Barca 2016 where Kimi wasn't able pass the RB with cuckold tires.
Indeed, Per being the tire whisperer is a weird call; he sometimes made a one stop work by driving insanely far, but in fact screwing his result.
