Most people in England can’t stand Hamilton and his hypocrisy. He says he supports BLM and yet doesn’t see the irony of working for a company that used slave labour in WW2! BLM is also a Marxist organisation that would seek to stop people like him earning the amount of money he has; again, he fails to see the irony! Most people in England think he is an average driver flattered by a superb car!

Oh boy. I see you drive a BMW...you better take it back.

How do you account for him winning 2/3rds of all McLaren wins and 87% of he pole positions when he was there against ALO, KOV and BUT?

Lastly, how do you account for him achieving 4 pole positions and 2 wins whilst driving the 6th fastest car on the grid in 2009?

I'll wait.

You're correct. I'd like to think that facts can overcome most idiocy and hatred but there are some who have achieved heights that cannot be scaled.

Thanks, buddy!

According Google :

"The combination of searing temperatures and the intense physicality of the ground effect cars meant that race winner Nelson Piquet was so worn out at the end of the race that he could barely make it to the podium – and when he did get there, he collapsed from sheer exhaustion"

The pressure was getting to him in that Las Vegas converted car park but his GP drivers physical training just pulled him through and they didn't have all the fancy electronic training gismos then.
I believe he possessed a full pilot's licence and flew himself in his exec. jet to the GP races.

Horner said : Adrian Newey and Andy Cowell would be the perfect combination..

Great post!

I think of him as, "The Forgotten Champion". He had the misfortune of racing in the era just before and during Senna/Prost. He was one of my favs in his early years!!

Dudes. They were out of shape compared to the drivers of today. None of those drivers could stand the physical efforts and G-forces the cars of today generate. They were awesome but for different reasons.

Physically, they are NO MATCH for the drivers of today. Just like in 99.99 percent of all sports now. And Snooker.

Well my friend , that's why I said it in the first place .
Today the cars are build around the drivers by advanced technology .
And the today's drivers are in better shape as well .
BUT...

Within a decade , we can say this again !

I know of what I'm talking about , as I work with robots in the injection molding process .
