I think Hamilton is running some kind of competition. How many times a day he can praise Alonso and dismiss Vettel. I think it is making him look like such a looser.
A looser what?

He directly compares to Alonso:
“I think lots of people in the paddock wish they could have Adrian’s car so they could show that they’re just as competitive as Sebastian,” Hamilton said. “Fernando, for me, is more accurate. He hits all the apexes".

I wanted to point out that the comparison is relevant to check whether Hamilton's statement is true (Alonso begin more accurate than Vettel), but I may have misinterpreted the intention of your post.Right, he compares Vettel to Alonso. Where is the problem?
Posted 03 November 2012 - 11:08
Irony, isn't it? He pointed out Vettel still gets pole eventhough he misses 4 apex, now Lewis is in a position that he can still get pole eventhough he uses the harder tyre.After the FP3 of Abu Dhabi it looks like Lewis is back to driving the fastest car. Now will he be able to shut his mouth and just drive or has his mental balance been totally out-done by the Vettel/Newey duo already?

Not classy and a whiner, not cool Lewis
Must have really hurt when Red Bull told Lewis (' management) to take a hike and subsequently sign Mark Webber for 2013

My post wasn´t meant to be serious, but i doubt MW would agree, that he´s so bad, that SV can afford to miss 4 apexes on a hotlap and still be faster than him.
Posted 03 November 2012 - 11:49
The RB is designed around Vettel. If they designed the car around Webber he would most likely be faster.My post wasn´t meant to be serious, but i doubt MW would agree, that he´s so bad, that SV can afford to miss 4 apexes on a hotlap and still be faster than him.

He has been the best on the last 3 races. A whole season is about 17 races, and we all know over those 17 races McLaren has been consistly faster and much regular on qualy than the rest.
Note: I´m talking about qualy pace and not about race pace.

It is funny when you factor in what Jenson Button said after a GP a few months ago.I think Hamilton is running some kind of competition. How many times a day he can praise Alonso and dismiss Vettel. I think it is making him look like such a loser.

“There’s been a lot of arse-kissing going on lately,” Button told British newspapers. “I don’t know what’s happening. It’s quite strange.”
Posted 03 November 2012 - 12:00
LOL. Did he literally say that?“There’s been a lot of arse-kissing going on lately,” Button told British newspapers. “I don’t know what’s happening. It’s quite strange.”

Is he jeaolus too?
Posted 03 November 2012 - 12:04
But what he says is that lots of F1 drives would be as competitive as Vettel, which basically means that lots of drivers would be at least as deserving than Vettel (of course including our mighty praise-each-other-every-day F1 combo). It's his opinion, but saying that almost everyone in F1 shares it, is likely not true.I think Hamilton just said what every fan of F1 (as oppose to Redbull, McLaren, Alonso etc.) is thinking right now, Vettel has a massive car advantage, but still deserves the success because he and the TEAM made the most of it, hardly contraversial or losing the plot.
Posted 03 November 2012 - 12:04
He may be effusive in his praise for Vettel's character, but nothing like it when it comes to his driving. Anyway missing 4 apexes and going off are over-exaggeration. It's good for him that he thinks lot of people could be as competitive as Vettel in Red Bull. But he is in for a rude awakening if he ever goes up against Vettel in the same car. The fact is Hamilton wanted to drive for Red Bull, but Red Bull said 'No thanks, we would continue with Vettel'. This is a bit of loose talk and is quite disrespecting of Vettel's driving skills.
If he continues to win multiple championships and Hamilton and Alonso continue along the same vein, Vettel would not be one of the many others, but rated even higher those two. Only the British fans and Spanish fans tend to rate Vettel less than those two. His championships and wins speak for themselves in most parts of the world.

Mark is a realist, Sebastian has missed apexes and been faster than him.

Wierd, Lewis praising Alonso makes him look a loser, but Buttons sly digs pass with no comments.......
Posted 03 November 2012 - 12:09
There's nothing strange about what's happening (and I'm sure Button knows it as well). This is so transparent it's borderline amusing.

Jealous? You seriously got from that quote that he is jealous? My goodness...

Vettel in same car is no match for Lewis & Alonso.
RB is the fastest car with EBD set-up to Vettels liking & Vettel can get pole by 0.5 seconds because he can afford to miss apex coz hes got the car beneath him as he likes.

Again, you can prove it your just quote what other said and not proved???
Please PROVE ME he missed 4 appex, and then I will take you (this thread) serious.

You could deduce from that article that Vettel missed 3 apexes on his pole lap?http://www.bbc.co.uk...rmula1/20108341
