Current Lewis Hamilton

A place to put all the posts from all the other threads primarily but love him or hate him, and even for the indifferent amongst us this is the place to discuss the marmite that is Lewis Hamilton, to learn a thing or two about his rise, talk about those controversial, genius or mad moments and something that i am bemused by, the recent articles that suggest something quite different to my perception of what's going on. Any experiences of meeting LH?

Brundle had to write a Lewis Hamilton article recently and in my tweets (which were probably ignored) I asked him to talk about LH the driver not LH the personality. It seems that you can't have one without the other.

So as a starter for ten, here is a fairly recent LH article. Posts should not be limited to this link but it can get some discussion going. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/formula_one/13755883.stm

The only banned topic as it is clearly ridiculous involves these four things "Glock" "2008" "Brazil" "conspiracy"

Points scored in the five races before summer break:-
1/ RB 146
2/ Merc 136
Point scored in the five races after s break:-
1/ RB 168
2/ Ferrari 103
3/ Lotus 81
4/ Merc 79
I'd written this in a note book...I don't know where I got it from & haven't checked it out.....

How many of those points for Merc were scored after their illegal test and consequent exclusion from the YDT at Silverstone and before the 2012 rubber being implemented...? My guess would be more than half of them, since they collected 3 wins which is 75 points alone

Have you finished venting yet?

I'm not at all angry I'm just asking a question based on the information given, no one can come to any conclusion unless they asses all the facts and known variants. one of the facts is that Merc definitely improved after their illegal tyre test and then fell away after the 2012 rubber was implemented given this I believe that without the change of rubber Merc would have gained massively over the season from that test and would have made a mockery of F1 if they had won the title..

 

[sushifiesta]

Didn't we go through all this again and again months ago though and I don't see what it has to do with Hamilton anyway.

 

[Mephistopheles]

Fair enough I'll post the question on the Merc thread or maybe start a whole new thread as I feel it does have relevance because now the season is over and we can asses what was and what was not gained by Mercs illegal test, I'm assuming this will meet with your approval after all we need something to stimulate conversation in the off season..

And anyway I wasn't the one who brought the question of tyres into the equation on a Lewis Hamilton thread..

ughh great, http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/nicole-scherzinger-lewis-hamilton-back-2870468

The soap opera must go on...

I think they need a part time relationship. Between the months of November - February they can have their relationship and let him get on with racing for the rest of the year without the distractions.

He's her toy boy isn't he in more ways than one...

This is a bit gossipy but Lewis is supposed to have offered his Dad $3 or $4 million but then never coughed up.

Not sure why this is relevant to the case Anthony is bringing against Paul di Resta.

 

[Hamberg]

At least now we know where Lewis gets his truth swerving from!

 

[Mephistopheles]

Come on, own up who's been dissing him?

What a totally pointless article I wasted one of my allotted views reading that crap...

 

[downforce]

Sorry, that was me.

 

[Blog Zbod]

A new look for Lewis.

Words fail me.











Actually, that was a lie. But any one of the cornucopia of words which that image brings to mind potentially could see me banned from this forum.

 

[downforce]

Oh Lewis...

 

[no-FIAt-please]

I don't care what he looks like to be honest, I follow F1 for the racing and not the looks.

Piss poor Instagram photo's rarely make anyone look good and, anyway, everyone is entitled to a bad hair day. Whilst I may fear starting WWIII, I would suggest, as politely as possible, that if one has a problem with a black guy sporting a black guy's hairstyle one should keep their reaction to themselves.

 

[teabagyokel]

He seems to have gone cross-eyed in that picture, which cannot be good for an elite motor racer!?

 

[Fenderman]

I think it's a fake anyway ...
