F1 is motorracing and motorracing is dangerous. I can't help but laugh when people come along and say he is putting other drivers lives at risk on track. THEY put THEIR lives at risk everytime they jump in the cockpit. They do this knowingly. If you think Hamilton bad then go back and watch some real racing that went on in the 70s, 80s and 90s. Then tucktail and run under your bed, pee your pants and leave F1 for the real men to race in.

So , the majority of my post was criticizing people calling people names , and the part you focus on is the part where I have an opinion against your favourite driver ?
You then proceed to call me names , say I am ruining the sport , and call my posting nonsense .
Then you tell me to leave .


I've been here for roughly ten years , and have rarely met someone as rude as yourself .

In fact , I've often argued vehemently with our mods many times when various posters considered extremely obnoxious by most , to keep them from being banned .




I have a different view of this incident to yours .

You'll just have to accept that , unless you can convince me otherwise .
Calling me names won't work .

You neglect to reference Billy suggesting that, perhaps, another poster is a paedophile, attempting to lure young boys. :rolleyes:


Get a life, or get outta here. :down:

Yes , I do neglect to reference that because those two having a long running string of insults going back and forth all the time that you have obviously failed to notice .

Not my fault his missus left him :andrea:

i can not believe that some think that it did not deserve a drivethru

I have no problem with the penalty as he really shouldn't have spun the car in the face on on-coming traffic. He was penalised, admitted his mistake and apologised to the guy he forced off. End of story.

As for Hamiltons' place in the hierarchy, he's equal at the top with Alonso in my opinion. Hamilton's a better qualifyer but Alonso's a better racer. Hamilton's a better overtaker but Alonso gets more out of his car more often. None of those traits are absolute by the way. On any given day Alonso will qualify better and pass more people and Hamilton will drag his car beyond where it has any right to be. McLaren missed a golden opportunity to have a driver partnership for the ages when they couldn't get the pair of them to play nice. Mind you, that may have been an impossible task.

As for Vettel, he's still a work in progress. He clearly has problems when he isn't racing from the front but when he is in front, it's usually all over for the rest of them. Over a single lap I think he's just as quick, if not slightly quicker, than Hamilton but has a ways to go to equal the racecraft of both Hamilton and Alonso.

There's daylight between those three and the rest.

Say... do we get to vote on the biggest Donkey Thread at the end of the season? Cause I think I know which one I'm going to choose. :)

+1. This is a forum and fans should be allowed to support or criticize the drivers. I personally think that Hamilton is a very good driver, in the current Top3, maybe, but I disapprove of his way too aggressive style - it's like on track bullying.

What a load of fuss over nothing.

Oh no, wait. It's Lewis Hamilton. In that case this was a dumb, dangerous and thoughtless spin turn which put the lives of other drivers at risk and he should be kicked out of the sport for life :rolleyes:

So, what I gather from this thread is that people aren't happy that Lewis was given a drive-through penalty AND apologized for what he did to Di Resta (shock, horror). No, there must be something more done to teach him a lesson. Hmm....

This man clearly isn't repentant enough. Probably his haters want him to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness:

Also, Di Resta doesn't seem to have any problem with it, yet the fans are throwing stupid hissy-fits. He has no allegiances with Mclaren or to Lewis.

While I agree with you DiResta does have a link to Lewis by way of being managed by Hamilton's father and to McLaren through Mercedes-Benz. Di Resta has tested for McLaren. Your point stands though.
