There can be no higher praise for Hamilton's driving than that, the fact that I find his off track behaviour pathetic is very much a personal thing.
For me he demeans both himself and Formula 1, not a view shared by many here or in the wider world, so why not let poor old Bauble sit alone and nurse his biased and bigoted opinions?
Let's face it for those who do not agree with me, I feel only sorrow. 
Ace you laughed when Vettel punctured!
That demonstrates your insecurity, as Seb is a serious threat to your hero driving unchallenged to another F1 World Championship title.
Someone dares to beat the 'Holy One'?
Call out the riot squad, arrest that man, spare nothing in your efforts to bring him to justice - Lewis must be allowed to serenely cruise to a fourth title ............
........ no matter how hollow the crown. 
Oh! By the way I have come up with a new motto for Lewis;
'Win or Whinge' 
Kindest possible regards to all those who do not take umbrage. (bring out the dictionary again) |
I understand what you mean by sublime and that can describe a few drivers I have watched over the years. I'm an F1 fan and have followed the sport for several decades. I don't have a favourite driver anymore, though I follow a number of drivers a lot more closely than I do others and Lewis Hamilton is one of those drivers.
I tend to agree about Lewis's off track behaviour and yes it is a personal thing. Win and whinge indeed, however there is the enthusiasm and it is great to see that but I find that it can spill over and become cringeworthy, as with last Sunday's race and I could do without that and I think F1 could do without it.
When Rosberg was with Mercedes, I actually thought it was worse. Not only were Hamilton and Rosberg battling it out on the track but it continued on the podium, trying to out do each other. At least that's stopped.
