thejester should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I think it's absolutely fair enough for Sir Jackie to put a bit of pressure on LH to get involved in the GPDA, and put safety on the agenda. Hamilton is the highest profile driver in the sport, no question, and his ability to direct media attention could be of great value when advocating driver safety issues. And, as Sir Jackie says, drivers themselves have to be at the forefront of safety advocacy, as they're the ones in danger! Complacency is dangerous. Nobody should doubt that deaths are still possible in F1.

Does Lewis have the right to free choice regarding involvement in the GPDA?
Absolutely.

Should he consider very seriously what Sir Jackie is saying?
Absolutely.
