Re: Formula 1 2015 Season thread
Don't care, makes it a bit more interesting to have different winners, leaving aside the fact that I don't want Hamilton to win.

Re: Formula 1 2015 Season thread
That is an appalling error. What a complete cock up.
Hamilton gets a bad press, but my god was Rosberg smug. What a poor winner. Hamilton, by contrast, congratulated Rosberg and Vettel, accepted that it's a team sport and they win and lose together and was positive about the next race. He's a class act compared to his team mate.

Re: Formula 1 2015 Season thread
That's as maybe, but like I've been saying for a year Hamilton needs to look in the mirror and ask why not just one, but three of his teammates have fallen out with him. Leaving aside the fact that I don't like him, and have made no secret of that, but you could argue jealousy with Alonso, being a 2 time World Champion expecting to be #1 driver but being treated as an equal to Hamilton. However when Button and Rosberg also have a problem with Hamilton, then Hamilton needs to look at his attitude, and the way he behaves.
Since he dropped his dad as manager, his ego has gotten bigger and bigger, and I am surprised that Mercedes can even find a helmet to fit over his ludicrous hairstyle and big head. Hamilton fans, bash me all you want but you have to agree that there is no coincidence for 3 teammates of Hamilton to have problems with him.

Re: Formula 1 2015 Season thread
3 team mates? Alonso brought it on himself as Hamilton beat him, Button doesn't have a problem with him as far as I know and as for Rosberg he is just hurt as he loses more.
Nothing wrong the way Lewis behaves in my opinion, and I am not a fanboy of any driver.
