    Agreed! For me it's fine to criticise a driver for something. Otherwise, the bashers should tune in to the fact that these posts reveal more about their own weakness than anything.

    Fixed? Right now the BBC are so paranoid about any wrong-doing that they're not even allowing Popmaster on Radio 2!

    Lewis' lap was remarkable. He looked positively snail-like through the Hammerhead, proving that keeping a neat and tidy line pays off far more than carrying too much speed and running wide - spectacular though that may look.

    Dave's right, it wouldn't be worth the risk fixing that time. The only thing 'fixed' about it would have been it never making the screen if he'd gone slowly, in which case we wouldn't have heard it even happened at all.

    The lap was brilliant, no two ways about that. As somebody who loved watching him at the start of the year but who now loathes the publicity machine around Hamilton, I thought he drove well, presented himself really well and he's back up in my favourites list. Still don't want him winning Sports Personality of the Year though.

    As most know, I'm far from a Hamilton fan but it sounds like he's really kicked a goal here! Well done to him.

    Have been looking for the video but can't find it anywhere

    I don't think that you can read too much into his lap compared with the other F1 drivers. It's not like they put 100% effort into it.

    Did Lewis put 100% into it? He was not excactly sweating on his lap. Very relaxed like he was on a pootle to the shops.

    And the story goes that a certain N Mansell took a few passes over the track in his lear to get a heads up on the layout.....
