Actually Bud it's on Autosprint, not Autosport.

This is be the original report here.

Here's a translation for you.

To Suzuka the pilots will meet the delegate Does Whiting to discuss the "bravados" dell' English of the McLaren after the facts of Singapore Reviewing more times the sequence dell' episode that involved Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Mass to the Big Prize of Singapore, that is to say the contact between the McLaren dell' English and you Shoe it of the Brazilian one, is really difficult not consideralo a simple accident of competition. Hamilton hits with l' previous wing political left of the McLaren the back rubber right hand of the you Shoe of Mass; that it is pierced and compels the Brazilian one to the stand.

The fact, or rather the "crime" like l' defined the detractors dell' English, incited not only the furious reaction of Mass – "Lewis do not the united states the brain "– but a series of polemics that involved other pilots and two former champions of the world, Niki Laud and Jackie Stewart. The first one annotated l' episode dicendo: "I do not understand because one with the talent of Hamilton have to be so stupid every time".

Jackie Stewart instead has limited to consider that "If Lewis wants to be a large pilot, should reflect of more". The judgment of the large Scot is likely the more balancer. The you connect of Hamilton meanwhile they announced a meeting to Suzuka, on the occasion of the Big Prize of Suzuka, with the delegate of the International Federation dell' Self-propelled Charlie Whiting. I deduce dell' meeting will be them "bravados" dell' English in Malesia, to It, to Montreal, to Silverstone, all' Hungaroring, in Belgium and, note, to Singapore. Even if this last episode does not appear actual a bravado.

But they will have the courage, the pilots, to ask to the Does to take measures against l'" Obama" of the Formula 1?

The what it does not please for nothing to the McLaren, that it does quadrant around its pilot. Martin Whitmarsh, the head of the English team, said: "Lewis is likely an aggressive pilot, but knows to use the head. The accusations in its comparisons I is not completely just. It is young and still it is learning. But, certain statene, will win other championships".

On the other side of the general consideration, above all those against Hamilton, c' is nevertheless a doubt that is coming to a lot: will be not mica than l' English is on the so-called because is a swift pilot? To think us better, you want to see that the things are just so.

Maybe Obama is being used as a metaphor for a huge let-down?

Look on the bright side - at least they wrote b instead of s. :hehe:

Bit over of an over the top comparision.


Lewis is far from a let down. But throwing in Obama just says all I need to know about the credibility here.

Look whether it be Spanish or Italian Press, I would rather read Afghani F1 news, especially when it concerns Lewis or McLaren.

Who cares what McLaren, Ferrari and RedBull are going to be doing. The world feed just needs to go incar the entire race with Kobayashi and it will be great. I can't wait to see him tear up the track again.

No such things as racing incidents these days; the slightest bit of contact ends in punishment, be it a drive-through, time penalty or grid drop! F1 has become too health and safety concious in recent years, coming togethers have been part and parcel of racing since it's inception, now the FIA nannies are ruining racing by dishing out punishments so readily!


While I think that the fact F1 is a safer place is a good thing, I agree that punishments are handed out too readily in terms of collisions. It is a risk of the job, and a lot of the incidents we've seen being punished over the last couple of years would have been put down to racing incidents in the past. I thought having an ex-driver on the stewards panel might have reduced the number of punishments being handed out for what in my opinion could be classed as racing incidents but it doesn't seem to have been the case sadly.

Yep, totally agree. We saw how conservative and withdrawn Lewis' driving style was at Monza after a troubled season spent in the stewards' offices.

At the rate they're going, all the drivers will end up driving like that, out of fear of the FIA! JUST LET THEM RACE!!! :(

Spot on. Racing incidents are a thing of the past....now you're supposed to follow cars around and racing should be a secondary instinct. Welcome to today's F1....bunch of wan*ers posing as stewards.

Heikki hss tweeted- Driver meeting about Hamilton? I wont be attending, I have no problem with hamilton's driving.

Kobi when asked if he was a team manager who would he have as his lead driver (excluding himself and his team mate) replied immediately-hamilton.

It seems not all drivers are on this witch hunt, only those up to political games, who know they cannot beat him in a straight fight so play off trackpsychological games.
Ignore them Lewis, go drive like you alwyas do. Let the wimps have their meetings, you go race.
#278264
I bet Lewis can't wait for this season to end. One frigging thing after another this time round. It's been worse than a soap opera. Looking forward to seeing him refreshed and raring to go next season. 8-)
#278267
Well it sounds like a few mouthy, bitter drivers out to make hay on the old band wagon. :P
Anyway doesnt look like its troubling Lewis and he will drive the race in his usual way

"“As for the race itself, I think Suzuka will play to my strengths: it’s a track that really requires you to drive in an attacking way to be able to get a good lap time. It’s an uncompromising place. But that’s when the thrill of driving a Formula One car is at its highest; when you know you can’t afford a single mistake and where driving on the absolute limit is the only way to get the best time."
