If things don't go hamilton's way in malaysia, he should pull a webber, get pissed, win races, and spout out things like "not bad for a number two driver"



No really, my respect for him would skyrocket!!

[racechick]

So would mine!! I much prefer the outspoken driver to the corporate grin. I think Lewis may have had it knocked out of though

I'm tired of hearing how Lewis is hard done by! He had pole he blew it! Get over it and stop putting blame elsewhere and face the facts he has a fast team mate, a World Champ! Lewis is not invincible like some god he can be beaten fair and square!

Thumbs up.

Being new here I thought I would have a wee sniff around this thread.

And...

Why would you have an Official Hamilton Support Thread?

Does he have a surgical support?
Does he need a surgical support?
Is he somehow otherwise encumbered?

I really don't get it, apart from having one of the worst personalities in present day F1, he has had just about everything that a driver could want and a load of talent to boot. All of his problems are self engendered. It's about time he either gets on with it or gets out...

I am not particularly anti hamilton but I do believe that there are just as good drivers out there that would make better use of the opportunities that he had had - me for example

As he drives for the team that I am supporting at this time, I suppose I should be a little more pro but, well, he has not earned it and unless he does something soon, I suspect that he will move on from Mclaren when his contract expires this year.

There's a Vettel support thread as well. For some strange reason yet to be discovered, the Hamilton thread is named "The Official Lewis Hamilton Support Thread" (is there an unofficial one?) but strangely other driver support threads are just named "That's Vettel" or "That's Kimi" and so on.

Made me laugh! Even though you're one of those smelly Button fans with humour like that we're going to get along just fine!

I think the only support he needs is a hug from Martin Whitmarsh. Apparently he only hugs Button.

EDIT: Fixed my spelling for once!

Oh dear, Lewis was used to Ron Dennis massaging his ego with a damp copy of autosport, he won't like being no2...

Particularly not as McLaren have already intimated that they want JB on board after he retires..

Andrew, I've mentioned a few times, even though I haven't "counted" there's likely just as many post of yours in the Hamilton support thread than there are in the Vettel support thread. Want to check?

Rissoles, you seem like an opinionated chap... (I'm learning to speak English, spending too much time here) and that's fine since opinions are relatively worthless since everyone's go one. I am however curious to know what he'd have to do to "earn" your support since in 2010 he beat Button on points, and last year even though he was beaten by Button on points, he still managed the same amount of wins. So by my reckoning they are very evenly matched since 2010 as far as results are concerned. So you're either using a very warped yardstick or you're your bias is showing and I'll keep that in mind when I read more of your opinions should you decide to stick around.

And? Didn't say I was complaining. You seem to have missed an attempt at humour.

Yes, poor attempt.

My support? Well, I believe that drivers have more responsibility than only winning. They are, in effect, ambassadors for the sport and their teams, and IMHO Lewis is very poor in that regard. Perhaps age will mellow him but he does seem rather spoilt to me. As to his driving, well, he is aggressive to a fault, even towards his own team mate. But on that point I must admit to looking forward to him and Massa thumping each other with baseball bats at every opportunity. That he is a talented driver is IMHO unquestionable; that he needs to tame that talent, well, that is moot.

So you're either using a very warped yardstick or you're your bias is showing and I'll keep that in mind when I read more of your opinions should you decide to stick around.

Bias... hmmm, what is bias but an opinion. As I hope that I have demonstrated my opinion is not simple "anti lewis propaganda" but it is at this time negatively charged towards him (despite him driving for the team that I support). I sincerely hope that he gets to grip with himself and does well...
