Lewis attacking Sky Media today on Social Media. Poor guy just can’t get the love he wants.
hmmp.
about what?
Martin Brundle and Damon Hill are the regulars. Nico Rosberg was the guest for Germany, but was quite positive towards Lewis and his performance. Anthony Davidson is also part of the normal cast, though he is ex-WEC.
Steve Matchett and David Hobbs were nearly orgasmic in their praise of him. It was sickening.
I guess I liked him more than I recall, but he wasn't Mansell. Now I loved him as a kid.
So looks like Lance Stroll is going to Force India next year. German sources say his father has bought the team, but Joe Saward at Motorsportweek believes it's a convertible loan giving him sufficient equity in the team to get his son the drive: https://www.motorsportweek.com/joesaward/id/00275
Who's going to replace him though? I bet they are queuing up for his current drive!
Well rumors are that they're losing Martini, as well, so it would have to be someone with huge pockets as Stroll and Maldonado each brought in between GBP 25-30 million a year. Marcus Erricsson perhaps? He's said to bring in around USD 18 million for Sauber.
It’s never enough for Lewis though. When he is walking to an area notice how much time he spends looking at his hair in his reflections.

Agreed. He was classic in Germany. As he approached the front of the grid he momentarily looked over at Kimi. Then said, “no, he has already had enough this season.” Classic moment.

He accused Rosberg. That is why Coulthard did the podium. Rosberg was scheduled to do the podium. Typical Lewis acting as an average talent on a World Class Team.

Amazing that Lewis and Nico are still playing games with each other. Hamilton's way of getting Nico back even though he's not driving.
I think things were said and done when they were teammates that have permanently damaged that relationship.
They used to be friends. I think when you fall out with someone close it's different than when you fall out with just a work colleague.
But describing Lewis as an average driver? Come on. Clearly that's not the case whatever you think about the man.
Haters are going to hate I suppose.

Lewis should just keep his mouth shut sometimes. Someone needs to remind him he has more World Championships than all of the Sky commentary team put together, by some margin. I suspect he has more poles than they have cumulative wins too.
He can’t. His World Renouned Tantrums draw the attention to him. He needs it to exhist.

Absolutely. My top 3 “Haters” are Hamilton, Prost, and Piquet in that order. Actually have a Top 5, however I kept it to 3.

He's so weird. He puts posts on his Instagram, praising God, encouraging others to follow their dreams, never give up, i.e. nice humbling words. Then he makes comments that make him sound like a goof. I don't get what he's doing.
IMO, Lewis is in a possible “The Meaning of Life Period.” He is getting old, and while signing a two year extension he most likely sees the twilight. He simply can’t contain it as well as others. Vettel can be just as much of a whiner, but has more control most of the time. Lewis is an extremely vain individual IMO as is a Vettel. One holds it all in off the track the other does not. TBO, looking at the future of where Liberty wants to take F1 they should both be looking forward to their twilights.
I think most non F1 fans would struggle to recognise any F1 driver other than Lewis. He's the only one raising the profile of the sport.IMO, Lewis is in a possible “The Meaning of Life Period.” He is getting old, and while signing a two year extension he most likely sees the twilight.

I suspect that he will leave if he wins the WC this year. But he might see the contract out. Who knows.
Yeah agree that F1 drivers sell their sport poorly apart from Lewis. Ricciardo is fun inside F1 but I don’t see him doing too much outside. Max gets defensive with questioning and Seb is deeply corporate (Even his Italian celebration seems scripted).
Crazy how quickly that all happened.
