--- Quote from: Tommo on March 15, 2008, 09:32:59 ---im no longer a fan of hamilton, not since he started trying to turn himself into some sort of gangsta, hanging round with rappers and driving a merc with big chrome rims (which is also diesel, he is obviously not a car enthusiast). then when he brought a book out i thought he was a right sell out. then he did the advert for some bank or other.

Almost as bad is ewan mcgreggor with that aftershave advert. what a sellout, toatally demoralises long way round, its as if he is saying the fragrance gave him the ability to do it!!!!

GRRRRR

The Merc, the bank advert, the vodaphone advert etc etc are all part of the sponsorship deal, he had a good year and the sponsors want to capitalise on that, it's the nuture of the beast and you can't blame individuals for how it goes.

As for the book, I heard Lewis on IIRC Radio2 being interviewed, he released the book because there were so many other people trying to speculate on his life to date (manyof them wrong) that he wanted to set the record straight, and besides, he had to have something to do when he wasn't racing.

I can't comment on his friends but I think he has manged to stay out of the press for all the wrong reasons, this year migh reveal his true colours though, but I'll be rooting for him whatever.  After all some of the sports best talents were, shall we say "larger than life" characters :-k

Holyzeus:
good luck to him, he is a naturally very quick driver with no fear.
this season will sort the men from the boys as alot of electronics are now banned, the REAL good drivers will shine

lee celtic:
No traction control means there is a good chance of a lot of crashes also they have removed the brake controllers so now it's down to the driver not the programmer..
This is where I wish schumacher was still in as I would love to see him get his ass kicked by Hamilton :twisted:

zacspeed:
Are they allowed to overtake each other yet?  :shock:



























I'll get me coat  :twisted:
