Between this and your follow up post I can understand your frustrations and dislike for Hamilton. Though I haven't reached the level of dislike you have.... yet.... I have often said he is his own worst enemy. I think it's been made clear by Nico that he wants a title, and at Spa both drivers did a stupid thing expecting the other to yield. Though I blame the incident primarily on Nico, Lewis should have known better too, and both should have finished the race without damage to either car.
The only thing that keeps me wanting to like Hamilton is that when his head is right, he can be amazing on track at times. I terms of racecraft he can be one of the best in the field.

His repeated requests to retire the car weren't becoming of a former world champion. Even if there was a tactical reason to do so (save mileage on the engine), it's not what you expect to hear from someone fighting for a championship. As with Vettel on occasion Hamilton has a tendency to sulk when he feels slighted. A forgivable trait I suppose but easy ammo for those who don't like the man for whatever reason.
Forza Ferrari!!

Hamilton said he could not even keep up with the Saubers, so I can understand why he would want to save the engine. If you are the slowest guy on the track, there's not much hope of scoring point, so be smart and save the equipment. After all, you need it in good shape for Monza.

I think the fact English isn't everybody's first language here means points are often missed. I'd be lying if I said I had a clue what that means Donks, sorry
