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"

When was Kovalainen last close to Hamilton in a race? Not surprising that they have no problems with each other.

Or... he actually has no problem with the way he drives. Probably like many other drivers.

Makes you wonder how many actually will turn up when push comes to shove.

Let's see who will attend:

Vettel...no...not with his history----------------------Webber...no...same reason given for Vettel.
Alonso...no-----------------------------------------------Massa...yes, yes, yes.
Schumacher...no...Jerez 1997----------------------Rosberg...?...would be suprised if he attends.
Petrov...no...........................................................Senna...no...uncle would roll over in his grave.
Barrichello...no...apologized to Lewis at.............Maldanado...yes.
Brazil in 2009.
Sutil...no...considers Lewis to be best mate......Di resta...no...Anthony Hamilton.
Kobayashi...?......................................................Perez...?.
Buemi...?.............................................................Alguersuari...?.
Kovalainen...no...Lewis ok in his book................Trulli...yes.
Ricciardo...?........................................................Liuzzi...no...not after Monza.
Glock...?...received alot of stick Brazil 2008.......D'ambrisio...?.

I agree with your assessment lewy, also I think all of your question marks will not go to the meeting. Rosberg and Hamilton are friends as far as I know, Kobayashi has a similar driving style to Hamilton and has been in just as many, if not more, minor accidents as Hamilton, Perez I don't think has a good reason for attending, Buemi and Alguersuari might be attending just to try to remove a competitor for Red Bull but that would be a little far-fetched so I don't see them going, Ricciardo no, Glock has no reason, D'Ambrosio has no reason.

Whoever shows up and whatever the outcome it will be a farce.

Is this meeting even happening? It was stated somewhere that it was false and just a silly article

Could be, Heikki didn't seem to know anything about it. Let's hope so!

 

[Brogan]

They're already on their way to the meeting apparently.

 

[no-FIAt-please]

Err, that's what everyone has been discussing for the last page or so...

Let's see if you can spot Lenny there...that will be Evilwhippet!

 

[Johnny Carwash]

I think that Felipe Massa should be more concerned that he is 100 points behind his team mate than trying to organize some sort of vendetta against Lewis Hamilton.

 

[Andrea_Moda_Rules]

Tbh, not taken much notice of F1 news over the weekend. So only just found out from here about this drivers meeting.

Really!? This is all going just too far now.

Ive been a bit of a critic of Hamilton because of the incidents he has been in over the 18 months. but at the same time, most have been clumsy, carless things.

I really hope nothing comes of this, and when i here the three muskteers from the BBc on saturday it will be forgotten about.

I'm fairly sure there was a car involved.......

I dont think Kobi would, he's picked him out as the best driver recently.
Rosberg is a good friend, so i dont think he would either.
I think I read somewhere that Buemi is somewhat indifferent, wouldnt join a witch hunt
Not looking like many is it. Massa, Maldonado and Trulli. The rest either like and support him or are indifferent/this is racing.

 

[Cookinflatsix]

I reckon Massa might just chicken out of going himself, followed by Maldonado

which would leave just Lewis and the stewards

 

[Slyboogy]

And a 5 race ban....

 

[Bill Boddy]

If the attendance by the drivers is poor will it show that they are not all against Hamilton? If so, what will that mean to those on here who were saying recently that all the drivers hate him? Will they recant?

I don't think all is correct here...as Bernd Mayländer loves him as he gets to drive around from time to time since there's rarely a first corner incident no more!

They'll look like silly billies

 

[The Pits]

I must have missed that thread.

Where was it said that all the drivers hate him?

 

[Jen]

They're all in contention (in it's loosest possible terms) and some are more underhand than others - so it will be interesting to see. I won't be surprised at who rocks up or not, or if the meeting actually goes ahead.

 

[sportsman]

Its nothing more than the usual GPDA meeting held at all GP weekends.
