It's his personal dislike for Sir 7ewis, which he says is not racist. But just him saying that is highly suspect that it is.

mate you re severely underestimating Formula 1 car..

5 years ago in a 23hp Prokart endurance series which takes 6 hours with 3 drivers.. i had to compromise the seat position badly cause one of my teammates were 152cm height.. after 2x50mins session, on my 3rd stint had a bad bruise on my left hip that because of its pain i had to avoid such bumps and lines.. and towards the end i started to lose all my concentration and my left hip didnt recover for 1.5 month!

and earlier than that i broke 2 bones on my ribcage just because of wrong seat adjustment despite putting on ribcage protective gear.. it was in a 32hp super series.. 2-stroke engine quite a fun kart..

Formula 1 is 1000x is harder and the seat should fit to driver like a handmade glove.. 100% not even 1% less..

if Max had such a problem we would hear about it here on this board for a year as an excuse.. be fair please..

I HAD to say my dislike for Lewis isn't racial because an unfounded accusation was made. Otherwise the subject would have never come up. It's because of people like you that see racism in every little nuance the world will always struggle to become a better place for us all. I have many reasons for not liking Lewis and none of them have to do with race! Do you think Lewis is the only person in the world I don't like?

So, I'll say it one more time. I have no problem with Lewis as a person. I will never know him but understand his likability given the few glimpses into his life as presented on Netflix and other interviews. I never liked him from the beginning of his career because he competed against my driver Kimi. And guess who my college roommate's favorite driver is? Lewis...Guess who my current best friend's favorite driver is? Lewis...I've basically had to catch $hit every Sunday since 2008 but somehow I'm supposed to like LEWIS? That makes NO SENSE! BTW, I never cared for Schumacher or Alonso either if that makes you feel any better.

I DON'T DISLIKE LEWIS AS A PERSON!!! I don't know him. I dislike Lewis because he constantly ruins my Sundays. I'm not British so I don't care about the Royals or who the Queen calls sir. If people see that as disrespectful too bad.

You don't know me. You are a pathetic individual labeling a person racist after reading random posts on an Internet forum. So believe what you want, all of you, if it makes you feel better. I'm done defending myself after today!!!

scHAM* stays, like it or not that is my opinion

Hmm, then Max + car + team = Lose

Kidding aside, RB has no excuses anymore. Their car is just as fast (if not faster in a lot of areas). The difference when things are this close is the driver first and then the team IMO. Max still can't manage tires during a race consistently like HAM or others for that matter. Also, RB doesn't have the best in race prep or strategy. You even hear Max complain about all the time the last few years.

Things are still close enough that they could change, but RB better figure it out quick as HAM is about to pull a full race lead in the points shortly. Could come down to how many DNFs each side ends up with in the end.

Seems like I hit a nerve. Cool story bro, if you have to constantly defend yourself so vigorously, perhaps that should tell you something and you should re-evaluate.

I didn't label you, you did it to yourself. I simply said it was suspect.

Funny part is he wasn’t accused of being racist at all. He suggested something and I pointed out that his suggestion would be discriminatory towards whites.

But here he is dropping bible verses defending himself about something nobody accused him of.

Ok, now we've got that straight. I'm not racist I hate all people

Plus you are a lair, there isn't a mention of the Bible or a verse in my post. Get your facts straight!

reality..

especially first part of all races.. anyone want/can see how smooth Lewis is on braking, lower apex speed but more straight exits he is doing to preserve his tires.. sometimes even staying away from the curbs.. but its the car..

You have a cool story too. This is about racing so why don't you, and everyone else for that matter, not inject politics or race into the discussion. You insinuate and then back off. Nobody knows anyone here personally so it's a reach at best.

I don't like Lewis for mixing politics into F1 AND anyone else who injects politics into sports.

As far as driving talent, absolutely he is awesome. Never once did I ever think that he was not BUT, I think Max can give him a run for his money this year. I think it is BORING when one just dominates, just like the MS years in Ferrari. Much more entertaining when there is a close fight: SEN vs PRO, HAK vs MS, ALO vs MS, ALO vs LH etc.

Politics and sports go hand in hand and always have. The ancient as well as modern Olympics were laced in politics with the modern Olympics SPECIFICALLY designed to "bring nations together in peaceful congress."

To say that politics isn't or shouldn't be involved in sports is a bit naive.
