Hamilton, Hype or Hyper Fast
What do you guys think of Hamilton???, I personally have never seen him drive in anything but the best car, In GP2 Hamiltons ART car was just amazing, I watched it sometimes and it's ability to late break, far later than all the other teams was simply stunning, in some races I saw the ART car was able to break 3 or 4 metres later than all the others so it does slightly concern me that it took Hamilton so long to beat Nelson Piquet jr. Nelsons car was obviously far inferior, maybe that says more about Nelson that Hamiltons Championship win in the ART car.

Yeah I think he'll be OK , I just have the feeling that up against Alonso he might seem a little over hyped, I mean having Alonso as a team mate isn't exactly a blessing, until Fizzi joined Renualt I thought he was possibly the best driver in F1, I don't now!.
I do want to see Nelson in the Renualt, I was mightily impressed with him in GP2, he certianly didn't let Hamilton walk it, AND that was with a far inferrior car.

You may be right about Alonso not being as blindingly fast as Kimi or sausage Dastardly ( As shumi is known) but he is incredibly consistent, he goes out and he gets points everytime, banging in repeatly fantastic performances. Hamilton in his first year at least will not have that consistency, and we all know points mean prizes.

Well, GP2 cars are very much standard components aren't they ? So the ability to break late is very much depending on the setup and the driver. That makes it a bit more clear that Lewis is an exceptional talent - the way he outclassed everybody else in some of the GP2 races I watched
Go for it, Lewis !
