My God! Are we actually having a discussion about­ racing without the nutter throwing in his cut &­ paste bile...............brilliant!
Ginger, you are­ right wanting to see any driver injured, maimed­ or­ even killed IS just sick BUT we are dealing with a­ couple of really sick individuals in here. Gladly they­ are not out tonight or perhaps they have taken their­ medication.
Can't wait to the new season. All the­ changes make for what looks like a closer run with­ maybe 3 or 4 teams and drivers in with a shout (unless­ the FIA spoil it that is).

Well said Ginger. The sad truth is that there are two­ types of people posting in this forum. Those of us who­ actually care about Formula One and want to exchange­ our views, and those who have pathetic lives and need­ to vent their own frustrations by insulting others.

Actually Forza, that has been an argument of mine­ before. A select group of "Ferrari Fans"­ (and I use the term fan loosely) are a disgrace to the­ real Tiffosi. Equally, there are some Mclaren fans who­ are also an embarrassment to the Silver Arrows.

If­ these so called fans were real fans of Ferrari or­ Mclaren, and of F1, they'd be able to appreciate­ the fact that if you think your driver is the best you­ need to think the rest are pretty special too.

Given­ that Lewis has beaten Felipe twice in the Championship,­ saying he is @#$% or useless doesn't reflect to­ well on poor old Massa. Because if Lewis is as @#$% as­ these people say, how bad must Massa be that he­ can't beat him?

The same can be said of Mclaren­ fans berating Ferrari drivers for being useless or past­ it, because if this is true then Lewis can't be­ that special to have lost one and only scraped the­ other title.

Actually, when you think about it, most of the venom­ thrown at Lewis comes from a handful of pathetic­ morons. Most "true" F1 fans appreciate his­ skills as a driver. As a matter of fact, Lewis is very­ popular in Italy, as is McLaren. True Italians are­ great Formula One fans and know how to appreciate a­ driver with skill.

I think Pete Sampras is in charge of stewarding,­ he's used to reiceiving backhanders hahaha

petrol heads watch out the oil is in short supply!!

While I am going to take the side of those saying­ there's too many people seemingly thinking this was­ funny or deserved, I am going to point out he's­ still coping less flack and ill will that gets directed­ at Hamilton.

Wanting to see any driver injured, maimed­ or even killed is just sick, and while I do think this­ is a bit of a non-story, there's no reason to wish­ he'd come off worse.

I agree Forza. People tend to forget that the guy has­ only been in F1 for 2 seasons. Everyone slags off Lewis­ Hamilton but lets face it, our sport was a a whole load­ more boring without him in it. It must have been­ difficult to stay poised last year with all the FIA­ bias don't you agree? Can't see how he kept his­ mouth shut after all the rubbish said about him from­ some of the other drivers and team bosses.
Personally,­ I love F1 and may the best driver win. It was the FIA­ that made me into a Hamilton fan. This year MUST be­ different or it will become a sham. Is Alan Donnelly­ still in charge of the stewarding?

Well, Clispy, I agree with you. Lewis and Schumi have a­ lot in common. I would say that Schumi was a bit more­ poised, and he was definitely better on the technical­ side. It will be interesting to see how Lewis develops­ in the next few years.

Personally, I think Schumacher was a brilliant driver­ that got the job done and did it well. He was VERY­ similar to how Lewis Hamilton drives now but then again­ I can't see many Ferrari fan's agreeing with me­ on that one.

Harleyboy: There's no hatred of Schumacher from me.­ Get your facts straight!

Just amazed at the anti-schummy feeling being posted. ­ Yes I know he did a couple of things during his career­ which were really apalling, but even so.....?

maurice - please don't lump the rest of us Brits­ with these ignorant morons - pathetic !

Dear sean f, heed_001, jeff f, chris h, shaun,­ buckeyewildman, clipsyduck, and to the many more haters­ out there,,,,, if you all were to take an enema, start­ to eat things like dill weed , yarrow root, take high­ vitamins and minerals, your small brains may grow into­ useful buckets of sh_T after all.

Im happy to see that not all the brits are rotten and­ pathetic fools

What a bunch of sore pathetic losers !!! You lot are a­ sorry excuse for human beings.

This place is populated largely by sad and bitter­ little tossers!

What a true racer, showed the f1 how to be a world­ champion how many times, he could sit on his @#$% and­ do nothing, instead with racing in his blood he takes­ up motor bikes and is doing brilliantly at that, come­ on guys give him a break and admit he is a racing­ driver of outstanding quality, ive always supported the­ British racing drivers and bikers, but even i can see­ how good he is and im a girl, so stop all the back­ stabbing and think how good are you,,,,,,, oh well­ never mind....thats what makes you bitter.......

Come on guys nobody deserves an accident with or­ without injury however badly he is disliked by some.

He hurt his right wrist too. Thought so, W*nk*r
