Default Ummm, snoogins? Hamilton's comments seam more normal and on target than your comments about him

IMO.

He wasn't rude and was telling his story of what happened to him.


As for best since Senna, that might be true. Since Schumi, very likely.

No other driver has started as well as he has, even the two above, and he was one raid tarnished, understeer into a gravel trap in Shanghai from winning the championship in his first year.

Your note seems to show far more biased than Hamilton's, IMO.

Default The fact that he's releasing an autobiogrphy, scant weeks after the end of the season, tell me...

...that this book has been in the works for at least the last 6 months. The kid believes he's a phenom. No doubt, he did well this year. But we're gonna see just how good he is next year without Alonso's set up input. We've already seen that he's barely worth his $300K a year salary without it. Let's see what happens when he really has to start thinking on his own.

His management is trying to cash in on Hamilton-mania.

from the other teams" or "How I learn to drive for a crook" ......lol

Default F1 and racing is lost on you. Hamilton rarely worth his $300K? There is absolutely no sense

arguing with someone who is so biased, their logic defies 99% of the public.

Default He has set history like no other driver before, even though he choked at the end

and lost the title. He will get many, you can take that to the bank. I just think an autobio after just a rookie season is a bit off.
