How lucky is Hamilton that he gets a non score the same weekend Bottas crashes out. Still great job by Max to win again

This is why I keep saying... Horsehoe, rear end....

In the moment while watching, I even thought, "thats the difference between bottas and Hamilton: one survives that the other doesn't". Then Brundle or one of the ex f1 sky commentators said it was pure luck that Hamilton survived it and bottas didn't. I get the preparation and opportunity = luck thing, but c'mon...

If true... I have to roll my eyes at this. My general thoughts on this is that if Lewis somehow had an epic drive this past weekend (fought from the back forward and won) that he would have absolutely wanted that to be part of the Netflix series and that him being sick would have just been icing on the cake. I can imagine the voice over saying... "struggling forward and making critical passes all while being so sick he wasn't sure he could even race"

However... him having a bad race... Now he wants that to not be shown and is using him being sick as the excuse? Have some self confidence Lewis! As that article says... it's ok to show that you are human.

Odd as he's let us seen many more embarrassing things

Especially as I don't think he did anything really embarrasing during the weekend.

See what I'm getting at?

I am having the odd laugh at some of Hamilton’s choice of what he wears (not that I am some style guru - quite the opposite) and his management of his brand, you were suggesting that the governing body chose to let him get away with things and penalise other drivers because it favoured Hamilton.

I see that isn’t what you said.
