well he had to grovel with his apologies,when I dont think he should have done,but there goes ,he has to keep the team and the sponsors happy.
ANYWAY lets hope that Lewis can kick some ass in Montreal,,and show us all how good he really is,
REMEMBER Lewis "Actions speak louder than words" SO lets see motor RACING !!!
Has Hamilton ever asked himself why he is in F1, maybe because he is black. As a 13 year old karter supported by McLaren, with TAG watches and arriving in a Mercedes perhaps the novelty value of being non white helped then. His undiubted talent stood out because of the difference in the typical mix of european kart meetings. You are what you are and racism is bad. But equally bad when you use it to your advantage to get sponsors and become noticed. Its like these minor celebrities craving for media attention one minute then diving for cover in a super injuntion.

Onboard view of the Massa-Hamilton accident. Massa clearly takes a different and much tighter line at Loews than the Red Bull and Torro Rosso in front of him and turns in much sooner. Why? Was he trying to overtake Webber? But Webber was already past the corner. Hamilton's nose was at Massa's sidepod when he turned in to him. Surely he could have seen this in his mirrors?
Well Lewis has already won twice in Canada so he must like this circuit... must be odds on favorite
Oh dear oh dear oh dear - eejot of the year award nomination...Quote:

Of course, if the world was free of racism, skin colour would mean diddly squat - sadly, not the case, is it?
Oh yes, he is in F1 because he's black. In the 90s Ron Dennis was going around the country looking for a black boy to pump all of Mclaren's money into, so that one day, as soon as he turns 18, he could attract sponsors because of his skin color. :rolleyes:Quote:

Take Hamilton's pass on Schumacher at Ste. Devote for instance, Schumacher widened his line once he saw the nose of the McLaren in his peripheral vision, and most late-overtakes that don't result in a collision, don't result in one because the overtaking driver got far enough alongside; say the nose to the front wheel or thereabouts. IMO Massa couldn't reasonably know Lewis was going to be there, just making it to the sidepod ain't enough. Hamilton committed himself to a last-millisecond overtake and simply wasn't far enough alongside. 100% Hamilton's fault.Quote:
