Ok,I read the piece,good reading!

I still think Alonso is a prick!

So do I.

I will hate because ........ I just want to hate.
Proof of Mark Hughes point I guess.

Just because he IS a prick it doesnt mean I hate him! I find his (rants-whines-me me me-fear of teammates-disloyalty-should I go on) quite amusing! I live in reality not in la-la land! If his fans didnt follow him with BLINDERS ON, and admitted he is a prick I wouldnt have a problem! What I do hate though is untruthfulness!

Lewis Hamilton lied to stewards at Australian GP in 2009.

Are we now going to trot out every penalty and mistake every driver and team has made over the past however-many years??

Lewis admitted his mistake and copped his punishment. For Christ's sake, these guys are human! It's ok to point out their mistakes, but don't expect them to be infallible. Personally I prefer seeing (and can admire) a genuine person, with some rough sides or mistakes as opposed to a PR puppet who chants out some corporate mantra on queue.

Lewis gets it worse than Fernando in regards to disrespectful remarks. Not talking about on here alone but the net in general. Just look at Jack Master for a prime example of the small minded remarks towards Lewis. One i found funny "Alonso has more character in his fingernail than Lewis has in his whole body" Alonso has character?

I don't like any stuff that is just abusive against any driver. I don't care if it comes from Britain, Spain, Australia or the Philippines. Fair enough if you want to have a go at something a driver or team member does, ok if you can add a little humour to the way you make your point, but there is never a need to make it personal. hateful or offensive.

You might appreciate this mate, I just finished a good read - Benny Cousins autobiography. Excellent read from a guy who was both adored and vilified by various sectors of the Aussie media. There's a lot a few people here could learn from having a read of that book, but they'd need to "empty their cups" first.

so did Alonso and Massa at Germany 2010. Dont fool yourself into thinking Lewis is the only driver in history to have lied to race stewards.

I was just pointing out the irony that he says he HATES liers and yet he supports one. I never said alonso doesnt lie, just showing that he is a hypocrite.

This is what I mean! I might be a hypocrite,stupid,whatever does that make Alonso less of a prick??


I meant untruthfulness amongst fans!! the ones that make up stories!
again I dont hate FA,as a driver he's 2nd best in F1! But still a prick

At times our mods speak about respect and yet allow the use of the word prick in this thread as if it's a compliment. On top of that, Bud calls another member small minded, which has to be the single largest case of pot meets kettle that has ever been expressed on the internet. This forum can certainly be entertaining at times!

Back on topic. I read the Hughes article and if it didn't have his name on it I would never have believed it was him. A good read, but I have to wonder if he knows that the biased press that he was speaking of very much includes himself....well normally. When he's off his meds perhaps.

If you’re calling Bud, Pot, I have to suppose that I am the Kettle? Don’t you believe that it is harsh and a little bit unfair to compare anybody with Bud. I have nothing against him but anyway……
I totally agree with you in what you say about the topic.

Agh Billy boy being his usual self rieghtous arrogant, pompous self! You need to go race your volks wagon some more! You're posting too much, people might think you're a geeky couch potato that you like to accuse others of being!

To be honest, you seem to dislike many people.

Maybe you are the problem and not them...

[bud]

Haha I'm liked by many too I'm disliked because I stand up for what I believe in. Unlike some poor souls.

Since Bill is on topic I'll take it from there.
But first to clear up use of the word "prick". It was not used against a member of the forum, that is where we expect respect, respect of other peoples views and opnions. As a word in itself if it is not allowed it will be picked up by the swear filter.

Back to the article. Im glad you read it and enjoyed it. If you read his weekly articles you'll know that they regularly take an unusual look at a situation and are often about technical issues. Obviously the ones i usually comment on are the ones when he mentions Lewis, but thats just a tiny part of what he writes about.
Your comments about him show your bias about him not his bias.

Ha, at least he didn't pull a Bjork!



To be honest if I was going on holidays I would want to be left alone too. It would be like going on holiday but taking the job with you despite your best efforts.

I know! i absolutely love it when paparazzi follow me around everywhere i go while i'm on holiday taking photos of my and generally attracting a lot of attention towards me when clearly, by looking at the state of my beard, you can tell i dont want to be recognized. And the icing on the cake is when i step into the airport thinking that my "holiday" couldnt get any worse when to my surprise i see a bunch of photographers to take MORE pictures of me!

They had obviously ruined his holiday and he was sick of it. But for your sake, yes, he sure is a devil.

I thought he was fairly calm about it all
