I just hope it's a good race and a good climax to the season. As long as Ferrari don't win...

@BillieJoeBob “ I am 100% sure if Lewis Hamilton was not famous and both you went head-head on a personality contest he will beat you hands down. Good looking, nice skin color, brave, will-to-win, rich, great smile and unlike you does not badmouth anyone just gets on with it.”

Hahahaha, sure, Galaxy, anytime. Let see.

From Hamilton’s colleagues
1. Lewis Hamilton's driving has come under the spotlight at the Chinese Grand Prix following criticism from his rivals http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsport/formula_one/7675283.stm
2. John Watson “He is a target for everyone to make it as difficult as possible for him, and he's brought it all on himself “
3. John Watson describes Hamilton's driving at the start in Fuji on Sunday as "stupid, ill-judged and immature".
Etc. etc. etc.

As we can see his colleagues think he has a wonderful personality.

Comments from Hamilton
1. In court to the Ferrari lawyer, ‘excuse me Sunshine, I’m a Grand Prix driver’
2. Hamilton said referring to Raikonen: "That's the way he drives. If you don't have the balls to brake late, that's your problem"
3. He said also: "I think Massa is on the back foot and he is the one that has to work damn hard to keep up with me"
Etc. etc. etc.

As we can see, Hammie never bad mouths anybody but just “gets on with it”

Idiot.

It's normal you brits are backing Lewis, and I have to admit also that sometimes Alonso is a little bigmouth. Nevertheless, I would love to see LH driving a flinstones-car like the Renault R26.Probably his records would be similar to Nelsinho Piquet.With a McLaren MP4 even my sister were doing the same.Alonso is by far better driver, also Kubica, not Massa

To FIBERVIT.

Alonso was in the same car last year? How did that turn out? Much better driver?

xukratz, I refresh to you that Alonso was under continuous sabotage conditions on his own team.Despite this, he finished equal to LH in points at the end of the year.LH is a good qualifier driver, but not a good GP driver, just simply because his weak experience.He has not followed the Schumacher, Senna,Alonso,Vettel way,starting from the lower step and gaining respect race by race. He has been the Dennis expoiled brat from the very begining
