Who else hates Lewis Hamilton?

How has he been arrogant exactly? Is he driving a bit too fast for your liking?

If you read my previous posts then you'll see that my dislike for him has it's justifications. I don't know if you're aware but "how many races/titles a driver wins" isn't a measure of a sportman nor his personality. Alonso in my opinion is the best example. He has won two world championships and whilst his skill as a driver is unquestionable...........he is a complete tossposs.

Who gives a **** about his personality? Do you want to shag him? or would rather just watch him entertain us on the track like he does day in day out?

Besides, hes an amazing personality. He always talks with a smile on his face, and makes as much time as he can for the media. Much better then some of the other recluses in F1 i.e. your beloved Kimi.

What a **** thread, we finally have a driver from our country who's actually doing rather well, and theres fools like you on here who childishly belittle him. Hes a great sport, half the people his age are out getting lashed and mashed, he's kept himself composed like a true sportsman. Qualifying today, and the last 2 races have showed his true class. Jealous bastards.

I see!! We have another one of those "I'm British - Hamilton is British - He's one of the few potentially worthwhile sportsmen/women that we have - Oh, let's follow him blindly, I'll still take him up backside even if he purposely ran over 20 race marshalls because he wons races"..........

What he does is play the media to his advantage and that's hardly working these days. The way he acts now is beyond belief and it's more and more obvious. There is a reason why people speak so highly drivers like Vettel, Heidfeld and Kubica and it's because whilst they get the job done most of the time, they have great personalities. No-one talks about Hamilton's personality, just his race results. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with supporting Hamilton or that he's a bad driver........but I think even those who do support him have to admit his arrogance has peaked as of late.

Have you ACTUALLY read the thread? Any opinion worth listening to actually points out that yes Hamilton IS a truly amazing driver, then are split between the ones who like and don't like his media personality.

Personally I think the media thing is blown way out of proportion, personally I've seen plenty of his interviews and the like, and I've not seen a great deal of this mega arrogance that his haters seem to find in every sentence he has ever crafted. People like that see what they want to see, really, whether it's there or not.

It's too easy to tag into the Hamilton-hating crowd. I don't care whether people love or hate him, it's all opinions as long as it comes from someone who actually know a bit about F1.

But Vettel, Heidfeld and Kubica are not leading the world championship, nor have they a chance of winning it this year.

A better comparison would be Massa as he is a similar age as is Raikonnen. But Ferrari don't like ITV so that is a bit unfair on ITV on that one.

Yes and neither do they have the chance to. Put Kubica in that McLaren and I would bet a large sum of money that he would be leading the championship. After his race win he was absolutely spectactular and humble in victory and I don't think we should forget that he was leading the World Championship at one point.

Even when Massa and Raikkonnen win races they seem anything but arrogant. I will admit that Massa can have his moments but he has shown that when beaten he will take it well and even when forced off the track.

Yes, I have ACTUALLY read the thread, does he walk in an arrogant way, does he talk in an arrogant way, does he crap in an arrogant way. What is it? I dont see it personally, I'd take Hamilton over someone like Ronaldo anyday.

His team loves him, that was clear, no one likes an arrogrant person, if he was arrogant like Alonso then he would piss everyone off. He does quite the opposite.

I think it's split really. We don't know how the international fans feel about it. The fact that most of the people in this thread are British and would no doubt support him shows that just basing opinion on this thread is a little biased.

Forgetting Hamilton for a bit, I dont know why people hate Alonso so much. If you saw his interviews in Spanish, you'd be laughing from start to finish. He's such a funny and intelligent person.

I find it funny how everyone loved Alonso in 06......
