That said, No one on the charge is as fun to watch as Lewis. The only complaints I have is his braindead acts such as racing side by side in and out of the pits. Dumb.....because if the stewards were on the ball, they should have punished him for pit lane violations. I am thinking if he isn't Lewis Hamilton, there is a penalty applied. I guess racing Vettel side by side in pit lane with people standing there isn't a problem until they touch wheels one day and a guy gets launched into someone's pit box with the crew standing there. Dumb....
Lewis when he gets a year or two more schooling will be as good as anyone in recent history...
Indeed, he is still learning.
Now he is going to learn how to drive, that is in the Jenson style.
This was my question regarding the entry, and I agree.Quote:

It seems that the stewards have gone from looking at every action with a microscope (the last few years) to turning a blind eye to everything this year. I'm not sure that the drivers would get away so easily if they had the same enforcement that ALMS has. ALMS seems to have the best stewarding I have seen - swift and consistent.
I dunno, I am so happy that they allow the drivers to race, since I was little kid it seemed that racing audacity was always penalized. IMO their decisions this year was all right.
I love his driving. Good for us, bad for him. The perfect combo.
Lewis had wheelspin , and knew he was beaten .
But , he didn't give up .
This prompted Vettel to move in , to emphasize his right to the lane .
He was fully in the lane before Hamilton , and beside him .
That race was over , as no F-duct was going to get him down the lane any faster than the limitter would allow .
Lewis has a serious problem with the red mist , where he tends towards the "deliberate , but instinctual " moves , in times of crisis .
His racing down the blue lane prompted Sebastian to assert his right . Whether this reaction was clever or not should be looked at in the light of what his rival was up to .
My initial reaction was to say "Give up , you idiot . He beat you into the lane ." .
Upon rewatching the video , I remain with the view that Lewis lost the plot in the incident .
He was never going to win a race on a limitter .
Similarly , when chased by a "lowly" rookie in a "lowly" yellow car last race , he swerved wildly , prompting clarification of the swerve rules .
Lewis seems to live in the moment , and if , in that moment , a crisis occurs that can tarnish his self-image , he cannot be trusted to make a decision that isn't wholly about repair .
A very good post.Quote:
