Hamilton wins the price. I think he is the donkey of the season so far.
Lewy, Lewy, Lewy! :laugh:
it is amazing how some on this forum cannot see the bias in their own comments. I think a good number of you out there feel so because LH is black plain and simple.
I think LH's 10 place penalty is stiff but I don't object to it. But the vitriol here has once again hit legendary status.
I was outraged after Kimmi ran into the back of Sutil. ( he lost it and rammed into the back of another car running in 4th position) I was expecting a penalty from the FIA but none came. I could live with it.
But I didn;t read comments from other on this forum referencing Kimmi's eyesight, calling him numbnuts, deriding him for his somewhat cold comments about the incident. calling him an idiot. claiming he cant drive, claiming him to be arrogant. dissecting and intonate about his comments ( which IMO seemed perfectly reasonable given the situation), and I can go on and on.
DC chews out a fellow driver, and many here see it as great and spirited. Hamilton begrudges his own situation, laments about what could be, state he apologized to Kimi, and folks on here still want their pound of flesh.
It is clear that LH brings out a visceral reaction from many around here who simply have a straightforward bias to a young proud black driver achieving his life's dream in the pinnacle of racing.
Many of you who only come on this forum to deride hamilton and are not seen before or after. Often staying silent or contributing nothing when LH wins or takes the pole by 6/10 of a second. Only crawling out of the dark corners to jump on an opportunity to pile on.
So I read these comments with one eye closed, as I fully expect a good number of you to crawl back, once this latest thread dies down and contribute nothing else to the forum until the next Hamilton mishap.
As a famous philosopher once said: " To be admired by legions is to be loathed by many"
cheers
How dare you accuse people of being racist with no evidence. How dare you!Quote:

Yep, Hamilton was donkey of the race, no doubt.
But some of the comments posted here are a joke, there are a number of members here that are causing me to seriously consider no longer reading this forum.
I'm not sure a lot of these people are against Hamilton because he's black.
This is probably more of a fallout with the British press making him seem invincible. Then, when he fails, everyone wants to get their kick in while he's down.
I don't think you should have steered the thread in that direction Mr. 72!
Just felt that your comments over Hamilton's color were unwarranted.
Haha. I see that top drivers really have had some hard time recently. They have won the majority of the donkey-awards this season. :p : Hamilton looks extremely talented, but his inexperience still shows at times. Before the SC he was having a great race and was pulling away from everyone. Montreal really was a strong circuit for McLaren and I doubt, how will they fare against Ferraris on the next circuits, so it was a really crucial points-loss in the championship for him.
Now i get it why his dad is following him everywhere, he needs someone to tell him when the light is red. Maybe McLaren should start running the car with passenger seat.
Do you know, of everything i have ever read on this forum, this post is by far the most disgusting thing i have come across. As someone who sat here and berated the Spanish fans for their equally disgusting display at testing i cannot believe that the fact i do not like Hamilton and havnt, for the record, since he first opened his mouth after Monaco and had a hissy fit means that i am a rascist. I am not going to sit here and talk about all my mates who are black or any of the other crap people will come out with to tell u u are wrong all i will say is that the fact that you sitting there and branding all people who do not think the sun shines out of Lewis Hamiltons arse as rascists makes u no better then the incredibly small minority who feel like that.Quote:

Not black, just an idiot and as you have just proven, they come in all shades.
And some of us only speak up when we have got something to say, not run our mouths in an attempt to get attention, thankyou.
No I think it is his mouth. he is always running off at the mouth, like yesterdays comments about his winning the pole. It just rubbs some the wrong way.Quote:

Might be true about his skills, but when anyone talks like that about themselves, they just ask for a negative response. Better to let someone form the team say it, while he remains all humble and happy
And speaking of same, from that same set of comments comes this:
"For me, more of a concern is the safety cars that there probably will be tomorrow, and not getting caught out like some of the drivers were last year. I know Fernando was caught out, and in the last few years Juan Pablo Montoya came out of the pits with the red light, and also Felipe (Massa) last year."
So the stoppage of cars should have been NO surprize to Mr. Hamilton, but rather than to come right out and say, "gee i can not believe this happened, etc" it is: "IF I cost Kimi the race" and so on.
