Rosberg vs Hamilton

[garcon]

As far as I'm concerned, the term fan boys refers purely to the idiots who blindly support one driver, constantly blame everything but their hero whenever he doesn't win, believe in every foil hat conspiracy and have absolutely no general knowledge about the sport.

Many of the leading drivers have some fan boys, its just ghat Lewis seems to attract more than most.

Unless you fit that description you have no reason to be offended.

Hamilton says he's inspired by Ali, in his title fight with Rosberg.

i agree with garc. it's a particular brand of blind faith and propaganda spreading.

we all have our fanboy moments, mind

to be fair to lewis, i think the reason he attracts fanboys is that some people find him very very objectionable. if you disagree with them and the constant negativity, it's hard not to end up at the extreme other end of the scale in your attempts to make them see sense.

All you hambo haters are jus' jelly.

again, Princess Hamateur proves that, under pressure, he is the worst, most overrrated donkey in F1 history ... getting flogged by an average driver in the best car ... whats the excuse this time?

According the SkyF1, the team asked Hamilton to move over for Rosberg in that final run. WTF??

Completely wrong ... the radio message said if you cant improve, move over - and lets face it, Rosberg is a class above Hamateur

According to this, Hamilton made the decision himself.

Well there you go. Ted Kravits says Hamilton was asked to move over on the radio, and Hamilton says it was his decision to let Nico through. Make your choice.

[Bandicoot17]

Kravits said that Mercedes told hamilton that he should move over if he felt he couldn't beat his previous lap.

[deeks6]

Nico is faster then you Princess Hamateur ... well, duhhh

[Moneyseeker]

Hamilton is in danger of being beaten by himself if he is not careful....

[djinvicta]

Ok. I can start a rumour too. Who thinks Lewis backed Nico up so he JUST missed the last lap red flag? But cocked it up by tenths of a second. Apparently Nico asked Lewis to get a move on on the radio before they hit the start/finish line.

[Peter Mallett]

Yup, the hurry up message was played on 5 live. I think Lewis is trying to be clever, whilst Nico is clever. Would be better if Lewis stopped playing games and got on with racing.

Perez was the issue here, all got a bit bunched up between the 3 in the last sector. Don't think there's anything to see here really. ROS is obviously going to be on the radio though!

[djinvicta]

You had the same thought Peter. It backfired bigtime

I thought Lewis just aborted the lap due to traffic Peter ?

Oscar Wilde would be stunned into silence at your repartee.

Or was it that he thought his first two sector times were too slow, no knowing that the final sector was so fast? A massive mistake which may have cost LH the championship.

He pulled out of the way on the wellington straight. His lap had been a bit rubbish up until that point and he just decided to abort and let Nico through.

Edit: No traffic though

If you watch the replay, of Rosberg's pole lap, there's no traffic he has a clear track a head of him.

[JeremySmith]

Okay then my mistake...

[migliacars]

Come on Rosberg.

I have always said and thought he was a better all round driver than lewis.

Lets hope it stays that way eh

fingers crossed.

Exactly. I still think Lewis can lift this title... but he's making such heavy weather of it. He needs to stop playing mind games, stop trying to be clever, keep his mouth shut and concentrate on his driving. He still has a very good chance this afternoon.

[JeremySmith]

The game is well and truly on now in a massive way...
