Ya know, I was willing to give Hamilton some slack, seeing as how he was a rookie and all, but...

Well, if it sells well, which it undoubtedly will, it won't seem to stupid. If there is an audience
of fans who want to read about him (which is the target audience of the book), then it was appropriate to make it.

So now autobiographies and The Enquirer are the same & it's appropriate to take a guy down by
speculating about what he MIGHT write in his book?
Have you spent time with him? Know him personally?
This is like the critics who slam movies and video games before they even come out.

But this book was written, more than likely, during the first third of the season...
What does that tell you about the kid. It tells me that the kid's head is a little too big for the paddock. Either that his father is one hell of a PR guy. I still maintain that he's gonna fall flat on his face next year unless McLaren can find a team mate that's willing to help him set up the car.

I'll buy that. I hope he can repeat a few more times before Hamilton gets his first WDC, but I
just don't see that he would have gotten as far as he has without some idea of how to set up the car. I don't picure him being allowed to fall on his face without Alonso around.
