Lewis Hamilton has decided that the media are disrespectful after it was reported that he was seen posting images on snapchat(?) and giving minimal answers at a recent press conference. Personally I have always thought he was an A hole, especially as he pays f**k all in income tax and prides himself on his Stevenage (or Welwyn Garden City depending on the day) roots. If it is that good, sell your house in Monaco!! He is so far up his own arse!!! TWAT!
He's extraordinarily talented and a consummate professional who has remained at the top of his sport for some years. Had some of the prima-Donna's we've signed over the last five years even managed to come close to maintaining Hamiltons consistent performances for so long we'd be in the PL. A young extremely good looking (according to Mrs Iwas....) multi-millionaire, Monaco residing, Schertzinger banging, bloke is perhaps understandably likely to be somewhat arrogant. What's not to hate ?
He's another who has become too self-important. He dresses like a knob and has a bit of a persecution complex but, that said, is still the best British Grand Prix driver since Jim Clark and he's a bit more likeable than Rosberg...
I can't think of any likeable F1 drivers. The nature of what they do means that they have to be incredibly self confident, self obsessed, super- egotists. The most likeable one was James Hunt because he was a piss artist, but he was horrible too really. Some of them become a bit nicer once they retire and stop taking themselves so seriously, like some footballers seem to learn how to speak vaguely coherently after they finish playing.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm told by a friend who is an acquaintance that Damon Hill is a really nice bloke though.
Personally I can't stand him. I think he is the most talented driver in F1 at the moment and I am sure he will go on and win many more world titles. He is a win at all costs type of person and I find him very unsporting. If he had Jenson Button's character, I would probably be a big fan.
Button, Coulthard and Hill (both father and son) are nice Hamilton is jumped up, but seems nicer (but still an oik) than Rosburg who genuinely seems on the edge of nasty
Even though I always root for Lewis, he doesn't do himself any favours sometimes and I can understand why he is disliked. For me, he's the best driver (maybe I mean racer) on the grid. I strongly dislike Rosberg, he comes across as a bit of a weasel and makes up for his lesser talent by borderline cheating. If Rosberg finishes all remaining races then he'll win the championship in my opinion and be the most mediocre champion that I can remember. And still a weasel.
Rosberg has him on the run for F1 title, so throws a hissy Taarabt like strop throwing his toys out of the pram.
A strop is a strop:- Like Hamilton, he possesses pure brilliance and skill (unfortunately wasted in his current case):-
One is a Multi-World Champion who's earned the right to throw a wobbly and the others is has been who has won nothing of consequence but thinks he is a world champion.
