I hate to say it and especially here on a Mercedes forum but here goes... I am not Hamilton's number one fan.
I will never forget when he was a young driver at McLaren and that abuse he hurled at first his engineer and then Ron Dennis when he was told to allow Alonso by during qualifying. Alonso was on a different strategy to Hamilton, this new rookie driver was instructed by his engineer to let Alonso by and yet Hamilton told his engineer to 'Go forth and sexually multiply'. then Ron Dennis ORDERED Hamilton to allow Alonso by and he got the same abuse. YES Hamilton has a huge bundle of talent and YES when he wins, he always says how it is a team sport and we 'win and lose together' but how many times do we hear him complaining when losing and always trying to blame someone else? Last season and again this season how many times have we heard the pit-wall instructing Bottas to either slow down or allow Hamilton by? The World's best driver should not need this and he always states how he does not like it, or agree with it.... yup, I saw those crocodile tears
I will never forget Senna allowing his team-mate to win a race, can anyone imagine Hamilton pulling over for his team mate?
Sorry but I like some of the younger drivers more than I like Hamilton.
Being on a marque specific forum does not automatically tie one to supporting the associated F1 team, wherever did you get that idea? Your views are just that, yours. No worries
As you will learn, we are a broad church on here in so many areas of life and MB ownership.
I wear a range of hats, team shirts, jackets etc from down the decades of supporting Frank and Patrick since I had an interest in motorsport. Must dig out my original Rothmans rally coat for the next GP highlights on the telly.
F1 aint wot it was like attending my 1st Singapore GP as a kid in the 60s Or asking a certain Finn who he was shagging at Silverstone one year, on the meet the driver saturday evening event. How times have changed
Did once blag a helicopter ride to follow Louise Aitken-Walker on the Western Australia rally. Must dig out the video I took
