FFS. When is Lewis' recent bad luck gonna change?!

Incredible.

 

Yep, I think that is that for the championship. Ironic as one of the reasons he left McLaren was because of unreliabikity. Never mind, at least we get to see him charge through the field like last week.

 

All's not lost obviously...

Nico just needs one more bad race (realistically, a DNF you'd have to think) and Lewis a win, then if they keep trading 1sts and 2nds up till and including the penultimate race, Lewis could well find himself in a position where he's still no more than the current 14pts behind... And with the last race being double points (i.e. a 14pt difference between 1st and 2nd), then it could end up being a nail biting finale! Then if Lewis was to win and Nico second, I assume a tied-on-points championship gets decided by races won? Or is the WC simply shared?

But, of course, the odds are in favour of Nico now. Who knows though; Lewis might get on one of his inspired runs again, win a few in a row (luck dependent ) and smash it outta the ballpark lol.


Lots of ifs and buts, though...

 

Nico is doing everything right and tomorrow afternoon unless something odd happens will lead the championship by at least 25 points as I doubt very much that even Lewis can get up to higher than 6th given the nature of the Hungary circuit.

Then we have a four week break during which Nico's confidence and calm will just increase while Lewis sits there frustrated and unable to do anything.

When they come back Nico can just drive for second and rely on Lewi's temperament to cause him further issues which sadly it will.

It's a shame, but that's motor racing and hats off to Nico as he has driven and is driving brilliantly!

 

Yes. Nico has kept his cool throughout and delivered the goods. Great driving.

Fair play.

 

At the moment Nico is the complete package, quick, intelligent, calm and mature.
Lewis on the other hand is also quick but shows his immaturity and lack of calm when things don't go how he'd like them to.
Until he can manage his behaviour in and out of the car Nico will always have the edge over him.

 

One can only assume you haven't been watching F1 this year.

A biased blog article from the time of the Monaco GP where Hamilton believed Rosberg had deliberately brought out a yellow flag to scupper his qualifying lap, a view supported by both Coulthard and Brundle who at least have both driven in F1. Got anything concrete to back up your view other than the fact that you just don't like him?

This season Hamilton has been far more mature than in the past and even today was talking about how he can make the best of yet another reliability issue.

FWIW I think eventually he will suffer because of the way he lets things get to him, but so far this season he has been pretty much a model professional.

Yes Rosberg has been a picture of calmness and focus himself, but that's a lot easier when for much of the time the luck is with you.

 

There was an interview a few weeks back where Hamilton leans on Rosberg in a quite friendly nature and Nico awkwardly removes Lewis' arm.
I can't really see how Lewis' maturity has held him back, he's had several reliability issues with the car whereas Nico has had far less.

Lewis has won more races with 2 DNF's, and was faster than Nico on his home track.

 

I think you'll find Brundle's view was quite the opposite as in he didn't think Rosberg did it on purpose.

"It's a bit of a hollow pole," declared Sky F1's Martin Brundle.

 

Not at the time maybe, but subsequently he has changed his mind presumably after watching Coulthard's piece on it. He said so in the pre-show coverage of the Canadian GP.

 

Vettel not hitting the wall? Skill or luck?

 

A large chunk of Lady Luck, looked impressive though.

 

Well done Hamilton!!!

 

So F1 is always boring is it? Lol

 

Best race of the year for me so far. Glad to see Lewis outdo his team mate from pit lane.
It's still no motoGP though .

 

That was a great result for Hamilton, 3rd from the pit lane! Well deserved considering the bad luck he's had with in the last few qualifying sessions.

 

Wow great race,big fan of Lewis and excellent 3rd starting from pit lane!
I did have a cheeky fiver on Ricardo @14/1 tho

 

Good job you didn't have money on Hamilton to finish 2nd,you'd be very disappointed

 

The more I watch F1 the more I dislike Hamilton.

He ignore messages from his pit lane, constantly complains. And is never happy.

How miserable was he on the podium, most drivers would have been over the moon with a drive like that.. Pit lane to podium...

And that haircut... Earrings and that ridiculous cap

I've got to the point of willing his car to fail

 

Yeah, I am sure he would be mortified to know what some no mark on a Subaru forum thinks of him based on his TV coverage. He will doubtless have sleepless nights

 

It's just a view like very one else I'm sure you have one

 

I think Hamilton is awesome. As are most F1 drivers.

Just spoken to the owner of a new F12 in the ferry queue; PHWWOOOOAAARR (the car, not the owner)!

 

With talk like that he won't be your friend anymore

 

So called F1 fan calling someone on a subaru forum a no mark

AMG my ar$e

 

Wouldn't want to be his friend...

 

I don't especially like what I know of Alonso, but I enjoy watching him drive which is why he is on my TV. I certainly don't feel a need to comment on his haircut or wish his car to fail. Maybe you should stick to football where stupid opinions are the norm

 

And that just makes you look more of an idiot, well done. Hope your car breaks down... what is good enough for the goose and all that....
