Donkey of the Race - Monaco

[Zico]

Lewis Hamilton. Abrasive and arrogant attitude towards the team - constantly! And 'I have something in my eye' - You are wearing a full face helmet, Einstein!! *facepalm*

Accuses the team mate of cheating when he's beaten and has absolutely no grace in defeat. Somehow his team mate managed the last four races with a hell of a lot more dignity.

dishonourable mention to Raikkönen. Someone should breathalize the man.

Wow, I just see it so differently. No wonder Lewis was raging but maybe I missed it as I don't recall him accusing his team mate of cheating, do you have a link?... and have you never had an eyelash dislodge itself and get stuck in your eye?

When I saw Nico 'lose control' and bring Q3 to a halt in the dying moments yesterday I got complete Deja Vu back to when Michael tried to pull a similar stunt and was sooo dissapointed in Nico that he'd also stoop to that level, I had thought more and better of him. Watching him gloat, all smiles in the press conference afterwards only served to further my suspicions that his 'mistake' was a deliberate one.

Up until yesterday I hadn't minded who would win the WDC but I hope Lewis does it now.

We all could be wrong but Nico I think not bad man. Not schumacher.

He very ignoble to celebrate when he get pole by default but in his word he say he thought pole gone because he f up. I let time tell on this one but if he f up again then it look too suspicios.

Better think he make mistake this time but just bad sportman.

I agree entirely with your views ,it was cunning,deceitful,and dishonest what Nico did and the gloating was the bit that stuck in my throat ! dj is NOT a Lewis fan for one second of ANY day but a staunch Seb Vettel supporter ,look at his posts ,then you get some idea of his dislike of what he saw in Lewis

I nominate Adrian Sutil. Methinks it will be his last year in F1. The junior drivers are already knocking.

Well don't you think it is strange that Vettel gets blasted if he is whiny on the team radio (which I don't like, too btw.) But when Lewis throws a tantrum that even Joan Collins would be ashamed of nobody bats an eye? And I'm not buying the 'I had something in my eye' bullshit story. It's what it is - the lamest excuse ever.
You could tell he didn't have the confidence to beat Nico on the track when he went Noami Campbell on his own team for not giving him the undercut through pitstops, even though he knows very well that at Mercedes the driverm who is in front on the track gets first call for the pitstops. Lauda and Wolff have acknowledged that several time. I'd say he merely has a very strange sense of entitlement.
Also he lacks the least bit of grace in defeat. He's beaten Rosberg four times in a row and never did Rosberg behave as classless as Hamilton in the presser. In fact I hardly remember any driver putting on a show like that. There's not much to like about the L. Hamilton of today.

Hear hear

Lewis needs to learn a lesson in either grace or humility or else he's going to find himself elbowed out of that Silver Arrow. Someone like Bianchi or Kobayashi could very easily fill that spot if Hamilton decides to start throwing the toys out of the pram.

If the team is favouring one driver over another, then surely the solution would be to drive harder and better? I have memories of a certain Frenchman who was a whinger... but drove better.

Guitierrez for blowing points for Sauber and me! grr

[Tazio]

I'm still picking Ericsson for ruining Fast Felipe's weekend, and valuable FGP points for me!

I also nominate Rosberg for his criss-cross mistake in qualifying. Willing to let him off this one time, through slightly gritted teeth, but I don't see much difference between his mistake and Schumacher's in 2006.

You've explained yourself what the difference is. Rosberg's lunge into the escape road was a mistake, Schumacher parking it in Rascasse was a premediated attempt at cheating. Now, I'm sure if Rosberg had really tried hard, he could have made the corner at the risk of bumping into the armco, but that a) would have had the same result (yellow flags) and b) would have potentially damaged a well configured car that he seemed to be quite happy with.

Someone botching his last attempt and causing a yellow has happened countless times before. Even a certain A. Senna managed to do that at times.
