I am so happy for Lewis that he is finally matched with a team who have the common sense to appreciate him. It even seems like he has a car that if not a WC contender yet at least good enough to let him do his stuff better than in the last few years.

I cannot wait for this season and if he wins as many as he did last couple of years I will put aside the gross injustice he was dealt at the Cartoon company

Here's a great article by the newspaper that represents the fairest and most reasonable segment of British values

Good luck Lewis, we will look out for you come what may

Vptin smokes salmon. It's expensive but it's better for your health and it makes for a very tasty snack.

Two very interesting quotes from Lewis in the article below:-
1) "...Alonso’s the fastest driver I can see..."
2) "...I do think the Ferrari is going to be quick this year..."

I've said before that I would love to see these two driving for Ferrari. My reasoning is that, whilst I accept what a lot of people say that having two ostensibly #1 drivers in the one team will end in conflict would be true at most teams, I'm equally sure that at Ferrari, with the clear path and rules for how anyone can be #1 would give the partnership its best (and probably only) chance of working.

 wrote:">Hamilton: Alonso is the fastest and is the guy I want to beat


Lewis Hamilton has singled out former team mate Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso as the rival the Mercedes driver wants to beat more than any other man on the Formula 1 grid.

The 2008 world champion told British reporters ahead of the Australian season-opener in Melbourne next weekend that he saw the Spaniard as the fastest on the starting grid and the one he wanted to be judged against.

The Briton said a duel with compatriot Jenson Button, the 2009 champion and Hamilton’s team mate for the past three years at McLaren, did not really excite him.

“The rivalry between me and Fernando excites me more,” added the 28-year-old, who made a sensational Formula One debut as Alonso’s team mate at McLaren in 2007.

“He’s the guy I want to beat. You also want to beat (Red Bull’s triple champion) Seb (Vettel) as they are the ones with most titles.

“But Alonso’s the fastest driver I can see. He’s also one of the most experienced. Anyone would struggle to beat him. Trying to finish ahead of Alonso, in a Ferrari that is actually really competitive, is a really nice challenge. And I do think the Ferrari is going to be quick this year,” said the Briton.

Alonso was overall runner-up last season in a Ferrari that started the season well off the pace, losing out to Vettel by just three points.

Hamilton – whose Mercedes may not be competitive enough to challenge for the championship this season – is the only team mate to have beaten Alonso, the 2005 and 2006 champion with Renault, over the course of a season.

The two finished level on points and with four race wins each at the end of 2007 but Hamilton was the overall runner up to Finland’s Kimi Raikkonen, who scored one point more, due to his having more second places.

Their time together lasted only one bad-tempered season, with Alonso returning to Renault and then joining Ferrari, but any animosity between the two has long ceased.

Button scored more points than Hamilton over their time together as team mates.

In other comments, Hamilton made clear how much he wanted to return to the top, five years after his sole title to date.

“We all want to be the one,” he said. “I was the one for a short period of time. Now it’s toppled over to Sebastian. But I want to be at the forefront. People see (seven times champion) Michael Schumacher as a god and that’s where I want to be.” (Reuters)

Best driver-specific battles on track in this era are ALWAYS Alonso vs. Hamilton, i think that is something everyone here should be able to agree on.

I can remember the hairs on the back of my neck standing up and the whole of Silverstone on their feet when Alonso and Hamilton were battling for 14th or 15th place! That's the mark of those two drivers. They both know that all other things being equal that's the driver that will be hardest to beat. Respect! :smokin:
