    1-define class
    2-based on ur definition when did Lewis pretend to have class?
    All I have seen is Lewis lecture speak about ecological and political movement.
    He aims to be hip hop and hangs out with celebrities. He is not trying to be roger Moore or Sean Connery with his tats.

    Hamilton wants to be the 2pac of formula one. He tries to go away from his clean cut image,but he kinda fails.

    He is a popular figure but I’d not say classy. He behaves like new money. Class would be more Button in my book.

    You’ve obviously never been to Germany if you think England is the soul of motor sports. It’s homebase for F1, but far from the epicenter of motorsport.

    "British fans are the BEST"

    Will this fact get published in the Hamilton Commission Report ?

    Not quite as simple as that: if you put another driver up against the wall on the inside, and you can see they are wheel to wheel with you as you enter the corner, you know they are going to understeer. So if you are on the outside and you have a 33 point championship lead, then discretion is the better part of valour. Max is known to be hard (they even formulated the late move rules with him in mind) but he is smart and he will learn.

    Apparently the (in)famous FIA diagram says that if a car is overlapping yours on the inside of a corner, it's their corner.

    Anyway, the stewards ruled, Max lost 25 points of his lead (PER saved him the other one) and Red Bull have a big bill. I still think VER will be WC this year, but it will be interesting to see what happens next.

    Hopefully, no one will get hurt.

    Trying to stay on topic, Lewis's post race showboating was dismal. No mention of Max, running all over the track like a hooligan (after his trademark slow tour of the runoffs); he's at best, nontraditional. Maybe his valet didn't have the opportunity to whisper in his ear that he should acknowledge the possible injury to his fellow driver. But no. None of that and actually the opposite. The public wasn't shielded from the real Lewis Hamilton this time. "Max was driving aggressively". Really? Because he left you for dead at the start? Aggressive because he was leading a Grand Prix? Or while you were challengine him for the lead?

    Let me get this clear in my head - who is the more aggressive driver; the one leading or the one who is attempting to pass him? Hmmmmm. Well the Stewards and practically everyone else have weighed in and obviously, Lewis was to put it mildly, wrong. But let's not overlook the elephant in the room.

    The need to take risks at the beginning of the race can be explained in many ways, most of which are part of racing. But there is one reason that is contrived, artificial, and unnecessary. A driver in the lead has three laps or so to make a "run for the hills" before he is assessed a handicap - DRS. This aspect of Formula One has been responsible for much discontent with the sport. How can anyone defend a race result where the driver/team that led for 70 laps is deprived of the victory in the final minutes simply because the winner had enjoyed multiple DRS slingshots over the last few laps? Is this what we want from our sport? I for one do not.

    I’ve seen drivers end their race and pull over to aid a fellow driver in incredibly dangerous situations, because of their concern for their comrades. Niki Lauda lived on because of such actions. There’s no comparison to the type of shunt Max had to that of Lauda’s, but the concern and sportsmanship can be the same. As I said I wouldn’t want to be in a Fox hole with Hamilton. The whole Max is aggressive, and I did nothing wrong thing said volumes. As Max said we move on.

    I agree with this. Hamilton drove a good race that has to be said. he caught Leclerc fair and square... no denying that. It's the lack of genuine concern for Verstappen that was glaring to me. It shows that the rest of Hamilton's behaviors are carefully curated.... this was a rare misstep.
    It calls into question all of his "actions"....

    Looks like we are stuck with DRS. Maybe NASCAR can imitate F1 for once?

    Well, I get your point, but it's basically the same thing Charles Leclerc was saying as well. It was the aftermath that made it seem more than only a racing incident.

    I'm just imagine the salivating tabloid glee and faux outrage if Lewis had married an underwear model and then divorced within the same year.
