I think Hamiltonians sounds nicer. The Lewis Loonies might cause slight offence.


Ha ha ha. Oh my giddy aunts. I just had to sit down. The day has come where Andrew has concerns about causing offence.


I am always concerned about causing offence. :D

There's always an excuse, a reason for why Lewis fails... It's like any misfortune is impossible for him.
Think I'm just going to have to call you guys out... The Lewis Loonies.
Has a nice ring to it.


So what so I call you?


Sir Bud will suffice.

But why take offense? Im a Lewis fan, but The Lewis Loonies are the ones who are ardent fanboys and can't comprehend Jenson Button beating him fair and square. They are conspiracy theorists and think it impossible for him to have bad luck without foul play involved. I wouldn't really group you with you with them right?

I just don't see Jenson fans making these accusations when he has bad luck, and he has had some in his time at McLaren!

But the way people are talking here, it seems all Lewis' fans are being labelled as these freaky fanboys, with wild conspiracy theories. And I hate being tarred with that brush. I'm a Hamilton fan, (also a Button and McLaren fan) but I can see his faults as well as his talents. I would say there are less than a handful of Hamilton Fan Boys on here......

I'd concur with LRW. For some reason now people are talking like as if all Lewis fans are Mclaren haters or smth. I'm a Lewis fan, I'm no Jenson fan (don't hate him either) but I'm also a fan of McLaren...been a McLaren fan since 1998 although this one year in 2007 I skipped being their fan due to a certain Spaniard polluting one of their seats. :hehe:

Basically, almost all us Lewis fans on here are McLaren fans as well...let's not get that misunderstood.

Thing is if you question ANYTHING Mclaren do then you're a rabid fanboy (and you dont need to keep saying 'they', you can come right out and say that you mean me, Im a big girl, I can take it.)
Its odd how often its been repeated on here that I think Lewis can do no wrong. Incorrect. He can do wrong ok? What about the other side of the coin, those who think McLaren can do no wrong? Bit of fanboyism going on there I think? The hypocrisy Im seeing of late is just unbelievable.
And to whoever said 'Button fans dont question the situation'. No funny that isn it??
McLaren are still my favourite team, but they're not the team they were, I think Whitmarsh is a poor team leader and if I see my favourite team doing stupid things I'll question it.
Go ahead, keep calling me a fanboy, but bear in mind that by doing so you confer the same status on yourself.

I think the issue is that the fanboys are the ones that talk the loudest, e.g. post more often than most! I find RC to be reasonable when it comes to Lewis even if we don't see eye to eye on occasion, the Martin Whitmarsh loves Jenson BS for example! The same fanboys come on and proclaim "Lewis is going to blow Jenson out of the water this year" and will not accept any counter-argument and can not come up with valid reasons for their opinion. Generally fanboys/girls don't last long on this forum as they tend to get very aggressive, insulting and confrontational!

The problem is you question something every bloody Race weekend even when Lewis wins! us McLren fans are fed up! Do you remember the times Buttons had s*** go wrong? Can you imagine if Lewis had a wheel nut not fitted before being released the amount of BS your lot would come up with? Did you hear Buttons fans complain of the team f***ing him over on purpose? It's just Lewis fans its pathetic!

As for Whitmarsh he is a great team leader, he talks up both drivers a lot even though you'd prefer he only talk Lewis up. :rolleyes:

Lets take this year Australia, you're saying
the team deliberately altered his clutch settings in hope he would fail, and then deliberately ruined his pitstops. But in all this you fail to recognize Jenson pulled a gap on Lewis. Did McLaren give him rockets firing out of his arse?

And here in Sepang a changeable race you have the audacity to make stupid claims on pit strategy when in these conditions it's common knowledge the driver himself will know what tyre he wants to be on, in these circumstances Jenson has shown skill in deciding what tyre he wants to be on, he has won a few races now in these conditions it's no fluke!
If Jenson is behind Lewis and he feels he wants inters the team will not say sorry Lewis has first dibs on pit stop here, nor would it work the other way. It's not a dry race the factors involved in pitting are totally different.

Once again you misquote me. No I didnt say they deliberately altered his clutch, I didnt even mention it until yesterday to rebuff your constant incorrect claims about what I say.
I've said that mistakes happen and happen on both sides of the garage,I dont have any problem with the pit crew, again you misquote me.
My issue is with their strategy calls, and they are questionable. Im not going back over the same arguement about those calls, about who made them, when and on what basis, its all been said.

I LOVE HAMILTON. HE DRIVES ACE.

Hopefully that'll get this thread back on track.


How about a video with some good music to boot;
