I did not know that Hammy was also the fat lady.
I think he may have it in the bag this year.
But there is a lot of good young talent around at the moment & if they get in the right car's in the near future I don't think he should already be singing.
I knew there was a reason why I didn't like the boy.

LEWIS: I'M AS GOOD AS SCHU
http://www.express.co.uk/motorsport/view/55202/Lewis-I-m-as-good-as-Schu
Lewis Hamilton warned Ferrari he is already as good as Michael Schumacher after storming into pole position for today’s Hungarian Grand Prix.
McLaren driver Hamilton is on course to become the first man to complete a hat-trick of Formula One victories since German legend Schumacher in 2006.
He holds a four-point drivers’ championship lead over Ferrari’s Felipe Massa and is seven points ahead of the Italian team’s Kimi Raikkonen.
And Hamilton, who has team-mate Heikki Kovalainen behind him on the Budapest grid, boasted: “I am at my best. So far, this is as comfortable as I have ever been.
“I feel pretty much on top of things and I still have room to improve.
“You can never feel too comfortable, but I feel safe in the position I am in. I couldn’t be in a better position to push for a win.”
Schumacher was handed a consultancy role with Ferrari when he quit Formula One.
He was at the German Grand Prix, where he was in radio communication with Massa andRaikkonen in practice, and is expected to do more testing.
Ferrari are hoping Schumacher’s experience in the cockpit will help Massa and Raikkonen to start winning again, but Hamilton believes he is on a par with the seven-time world champion.
“I think Michael’s presence at Ferrari is a compliment to us,” said Hamilton. “We are not doing that and we are still winning races.
“When we go to a test, it is cool to be on the track the same day as him. For me, it is even more of a challenge.
“Michael is someone I have been watching for years, but I can do just as good a job as him and my task is to contribute as much as he does.
“I expected Ferrari to be a bit stronger, but for whatever reason they have not been quite as
competitive recently.
“I’m not thinking about them trying to catch up, though. It is up to us to keep pushing.”
Despite his problems in Canada and France, where he failed to score any points, Hamilton insists his confidence has never wavered.
But, following his stormy relationship with former team-mate Fernando Alonso and the heartache on missing out on the drivers’ championship last season, Hamilton is well aware there is plenty of time for more twists and turns – on and off the track.
“I have some great memories from last year,” he said. “It was an incredible roller-coaster ride. This year it is a much smoother roller-coaster ride, but one I am very much enjoying.
“I have believed I have got the opportunity to win the world championship since day one. I’ve had a couple of bad races, but there has always been a long way to go so I’ve never believed I can’t win.”

Anyway I still don't take back that I hope in the end he stuffs up. Weather it is in the Hungarian GP or later down the track. If McLaren want to win Ithink it would be nicer with a more subtle driver like Heikki.
) I will continue not liking him. However If he wins WDC 
I'll say he deserved it.
You know its a cycle with Lewis Hamilton. I was starting to like him again, but then he comes out and says something stupid crap like this that makes me question him. He's an arrogant little twit that should be slapped in the back of his head by his father from time to time... oh wait his dad is the same damn way
