...we need discussion, don’t flame are get over angry. etc Happy

1) Is Alonso having trouble with his ego ? (sort of rhetorical this one Laughing

2) Is Hamilton possibly the best driver in F1, at the moment/ever ?

3) Is Kimi going to sneak up and take the championship while everyone is

squabbling ?

4) Did Ron Hang Hamilton out to dry on 4 laps of obviously laminating tyres because he was going to totally embarrass Alonso ? in an effort to bring Alonso back in to play. etc
as it would have been the last straw and Alonso would have defo have left the team.

Just to kick it off

I was so happy when i saw FIAmilton riding as a passenger on this tiny scooter, it was priceless. Anyway I don't like Alonso cause of his ego, but i wish him good luck with kicking FIAmilton's ass.

Did you see Ron's reaction after he saw what Ham did?
It was Ham's fault, Alonso, Massa and Rai made same amount of laps on those tires, and they could manage some more. It was Hamilton's fault that he couldn't care enough for his tires. And no, Hamilton is not so good, look how Raikkonnen ate him before Hamilton went to pit-stop.

Yes lots of people gained on him, worn tyres was not the issue, its that fact one was falling to pieces.

tyres malfunction all the time.

Hamilton’s ability to race in difficult situations is not at question.

and it looked to be like Ron’s plan went wrong. That said I sort of threw that one in for fun...kinda

Imho Ayrton Senna was da man in F1 (Not to forget Michael)!
Hamilton is good but Senna whooped butt Happy

I unfortunally saw only half the race this morning (watched some 10 minutes after Hamilton did his 'driving off track while on his way to the pit' stunt.
One word - WoooOt!

hehe, figured Happy
Atm, SWE doesnt have any F1 driver and nor Michael Schumacher, Mika Häkkinen or Ayrton Senna (R.I.P) drive anymore. My current active favourite drivers are Lewis Hamilton (uk) and Kimi Räikkönen (fin) with a small extra plus to Hamilton Happy

In yet another 2 years Toyota will be fighting in the McLaren/Ferrari league. If Toyota finds a decent driver... Hamilton and Kimi maybe?

Remember where you first read that Happy

Finally a thread about REAL sports Big grin

Schuhmacher ftw Winking Big grin Big grin

Unfortunatly as long as i was there to follow f1 there almost everytime won the driver with best car or back then tires..nowadays even seems to me like most races are decided in qualifying or right after start...that's kind of sad..

Anyway...all three are good drivers but Alonso is an asshole and Raikonen hasn't best car so there's Hamilton winning Big grin

Regards,
Absti Cool

Is Alonso having trouble with his ego, Arrow

The 110 million for 5 years deal that they made to Hamilton would be a slap to my ego. Shock

Is Hamilton possibly the best driver in F1 This year or ever,,
Arrow
At the moment Lewis has nothing to lose, there is no fear factor in his driving he is still young full of desire. Some would say Beginners luck, time will tell
It seems as the drivers age they lose that edge.. Michael Shumacher did alot for F1 and continued to prove his ability till the end at which the engine failure caused him his 9th world championship. In my mind Michael has gone as one of the best ever, As many of the track records go to him, Winking

I would love to see Kimi (ICEMAN) Raikkonen win one. But it will take another misfortune for Hamilton to let Kimi win it,but then there is Alonso who is determined to prove his abilty and he did take Renault to the top something both Mclaren,Ferrari was stunned over..( put hamilton in a honda, lets see how well he does) Hamilton, Alonso and Raikkonen have a good challenge to play for in Interlagos, It will be a great race to watch.. Besides the gorgeous F1 Babes of Brazil are among the best to look at. Big grin

Did Ron Hang Hamilton out to dry on 4 laps of obviously laminating tyres because he was going to totally embarrass Alonso ? in an effort to bring Alonso back in to play. etc
as it would have been the last straw and Alonso would have defo have left the team. Arrow

I dont think it was a left to dry call, there certinly is a cooperative effort, I recall two races where Michael Schumacher actully rolled to a coast to let Rubins Barachello win becuase the team managers had set Michael up to win with pits,fuel stops. And as far back as Indianapolis I heard rumors at the track that Alonso was going back to renault next year. But Ferrari is trying to get him, as well but the bond is tight with between Alons and Fabio. :roll:

Does Lewis Hamilton look like curious george the monkey?

yep lots of truth 5150, though "put him in a Honda" I know what you mean, but Hamilton has spent the last 10 years winning every formula Kart -> F1 comprehensively, it just looks like business as usual to me Happy

But ye lets see how well he does in the coming years( when he has actually been able drive the circuits before race weekend) Happy

I don’t think you can call 9 consecutive podiums beginners luck though Happy

My 2 cents is he is a phenomenon, and will achieve and surpass Senna's genius.

I’ve watched F! for the 20 years and seen nothing like him.
