Mother can't afford to see Hamilton's debut

Lewis Hamilton's mother has entered a television competition in a last ditch effort to watch her son make his formula one debut in March. Carmen Lockhart reportedly cannot afford to jet from her English home to Australia for the Melbourne opener, and is "too proud" to ask 22-year-old Hamilton - who has always lived with his father, brother and step-mother

Can't wait till the season starts so we have something serious to talk about...

"Too proud" haha. If that were the case then she wouldn't have told the media? Methinks Lewis is going to have to pay the fare now, how much is he earning anyway?

How many of his GP2 races did she attend?
And, do we care?

Does he have any contact with her? How many of his close family is he flying out and to quote Tazio; "Do we care".

I never realised that was his step-mum!
Whatever, what right have mummies or daddies for that matter got to go watch grown up son's activities? I don't get any passes or rights to go see my son race. It's his job, I wouldn't expect to sit at his desk with him if he got a job in an office!
I can only afford to go to a couple of races myself each year, I buy my own tickets and watch from the grandstand like every other spectator has to.

Shame on us for commenting! This is Lewis's personal life, we dont know what the relationship between Lewis and his mother is like! The fact that he has never lived with his mother promotes the very real possibility that they dont get along with each other. For all we know Lewis's mother might be one of these people who never cared about her sun untill all of a sudden he became rich and successfull and now she wants to turn up for her "share" of the wealth

I dunno, im just guessing here, but the point is no one here knows and therefore no one has the right to criticise him

Oh well, just have to watch the race sitting at home like most people here then! Silly as i bet Hamilton is earning abit of money- or perhaps a ditch in his pay after he smashed up a new mclaren in that test.

It was his personal life, until it became public (on a TV show).

If I want to keep private any aspect of my life, I don't broadcast it.

Do we know all the facts, No we don't, Best we leave this alone!

No ones business but the Hamilton family's business. Typical of the media in this country and typical of the public for thinking they have a right to know.
