Lewis is not blameless in the aftermath? How do you work that one out? He sounds pretty reasonable on his BBC slot for a guy who's been pissed over all season by unreliability and a cheating team mate.
What's he supposed to say? 'hey guys! I love being shat on by everyone, bring it on!'
He should have said nothing. Stonewalling leading questions would serve him better. His comment right after the Spa team meeting wasn't his best choice of words. He interpreted Rosberg's words in his own emotionally heightened frustrated state. He knows everyone is listening, and that whatever he says will be repeated ad infinitum. All his fanboys stopped listening after that point, that's all they needed. It was either an excellently thought out PR stunt, or a slightly rash statement.
He was great in the press conference yesterday, he knows what to say and how to say it at the start of the weekend, but his emotions gradually get the better of him, depending on how crappy his weekend is going, to the detrement of comon sense. He needs to hold his tongue, make no silly remarks, not just less silly remarks.
Like I said above, Lauda, Wolff, Nico, whover pulls the strings at Merc have all ballsed this up over the last two weeks. It's embarrasing. Hamilton could have held himself and let them shoot themselves in the foot.
