You could tell it wasn't Alonso though because he'd have got away with it. FIArrari and all that sort of stuff :pQuote:

They both made mistakes in that maneouvre. I'd put most of the blame on Hamilton because he started it in the first place but Felipe could have given him more room.Quote:

As for the Maldonado incident, you can also cleary see that Maldonado turned in too early to block Hamilton. Hamilton was entitled to attempt the move, he was alongside him, if Maldonado wanted to defend his position then the only way to avoid an incident once once Hamilton had committed was to take the racing line, he didn't.
I agree with you. Until Hamilton arrived on the scene I had gotten very bored with F1. He adds that element of passion for racing that was missing for F1 for a few years. He is the best driver out there. Clearly he was frustrated but I'd rather a driver express himself and his emotions rather than be a brick wall and just take everything on the chin.Quote:

You get bored when the series is full of people who don't have a persecution complex?Quote:

Do I agree with him? To a certain extent I do, especially at the beginning of his career when it was such a shock that a black man could tango with the best in the world. As of today, I think he said it out of frustration (tongue-in-cheek comment), but I'm glad that someone finally had the balls to give the FIA a middle finger.Quote:
Out of six races, I've been to the stewards five times. It's a joke! Maybe it's because I'm black. That's what Ali G says. I don't know. - Lewis Hamilton
Lewis did a Jerez :dozey:
Poor Maldonado :s
The man has passion for racing. I love that. Senna had the same passion for racing and also spoke his mind. Some people can call that moany and whingey if they want. I see it as someone that absolutely loves racing what he does. His passion for racing is what I like about him.Quote:

McLaren are already working on upgraded for Lewis's next race:

But you can add he called the stewards "a joke", EXCEPT I have to agree on that point: A 20 second penalty?? Causing no loss of position!!!!!!!
now that was a sad JOKE, why bother......(but he has now gone back and made peace with them, personally I think the real reason he went back was to kissed their buttocks for giving him only 20 seconds.....if there is to be a penalty, then there should be a real penalty that hurts..)
Anyway was that Hamilton getting all squirelly and causing the wreck that stopped the race???
I don't think Ayrton's intention was to murder anyone. Senna wanted to win, but I don't see how that's anyway comparable to Hamilton.Quote:

I also don't think Hamilton would take someone off on purpose. I think he genuinely believes that all the contact he had was the other guys fault. In itself that's a problem, but I can live with that.Quote:

It was a stupid comment, but then I am so used to Hamilton's childish behaviour to be particularly surprised by his current temper tantrum.
I respect his talent behind the wheel but I will never respect the man.
I agree with Hamilton,he has had some harsh penalty's in his career that others would have got away with.Its called motor RACING for gods sake!!
We want to see motors RACING,not a procession of cars for nearly 2 hours where the race is won or lost in the pits.If we wanted to see who is the quickest in the pits ,we could watch "Pit stop challenge",for our entertainment.Lewis is a racer,he make,s F1 interesting,which I believe is what the majority want,The drivers who hold him up to help their fellow country man,and some german drivers come into that category,are content to "follow my leader", until they see Lewis in their mirrors.
I know Lewis should consider his team and sponsors,when making his comments,but I would be as frustrated and as verbal myself too !
Just wait until the FIA gives him a ban because of his racist claims.Quote:

Whatever. You've hated Lewis Hamilton since he made his way into F1 in 2007 and was able to match Alonso at McLaren.Quote:
