The way I see it, he was half-joking by saying the other two names because it would mean he would get a bigger points lead over Rosberg in terms of the championship. If you read the rest of the interview, he states that the preferred finish order for the team would be a merc 1-2. I don't see what he said as being manipulative or anything, just joking around with the reporter.

According to this article Hamilton says he is ''hungrier'' than Rosberg.

I think you should read the first paragraph of your own post again and then revise the second one. I fear you have got the wrong end of the stick.

The opposite! Remember how Hamilton and Alonso were singing praises to each other the last year, as if the guys didn't even know that Vettel existed? Clearly, they wanted to diminish the value Vettel's skill in winning his tittles. I think this statement is simply the affirmation of the same thing. "I am the best driver, besides Alonso, and Vettel should be third behind us, at best".

No. The reason he wants Rosberg not in second is so he can pull away on points.

How is this so difficult?

The stakes have just been upped at Monaco, with Nico;s off bringing out that yellow and messing up Lewis's flying lap at the end of Q3.

Lewis looks very silly after all his talk about psychological advantages. He's just shown how much he hypes all this up because in reality he has a psychological weakness.

That he acts like a kid sometimes. And that today all his big man act wore off as soon as his qually went wrong.

He's spent a lot of time recently talking about psychology himself, talking about Rosberg, etc. Just this weekend it was comments about how Rosberg had had a better life before F1 and so he (Lewis) has more motivation.

I'm not claiming to be a psychological expert, but so what if I'm sitting on my armchair? I can't have an opinion?

I don't think it's so much a weakness, more that Hamilton believes he is better than/deserves to win more than Rosberg because of where he came from.

He's playing the poor background card. But apparently I can't have an opinion on psychology because I sit in an armchair.

Anyone suggesting a poor background clearly hasn't done their homework.

He definitely wasn't poor, but for some reason he likes to think he's "from the ghetto".

To be fair he he's got nothing compared to Rosberg's childhood

Of course, I just didn't know what weakness you were suggesting. None was particularly evident to me - just the annoyance of not getting the chance to beat Rosberg. Let's face it, why should he big up the only rival he's going to have for this year's WDC.....?
