Lewis Hamilton is so lovely and down to earth too but I really want to get to know Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel better.

If they'd all had the same car, then Jenson Button definitely wouldn't have won this season. Lewis Hamilton is a better driver and he's a nicer person.

The animosity towards Button allegedly stems from a trackside interview that Miss Ecclestone conducted with Button as part of her job with Sky Sports.

Tamara said: 'He was just answering his phone in the middle of the interview and I was like: "Dude, I'm sitting here, what are you doing?"'

so this isn't about his driving skill it's about being 'nicer'? clearly a tantrum because Jenson didn't tug the old forelock heavily enough...



while we're on the topic of discussing who's earned their success and who hasn't, what did Tamara do to earn her job at sky?


apart from her daddy being the boss that is

There are some very sexist posts in this thread, and were even more before Gilles' cleanup. Seems to me criticism of Jense is less acceptable if it's made by a woman.

If Jense had answered his phone in the middle of an interview by Ted Kravitz, would that have been OK?

"Only 6 wins" was a bit silly, otherwise Jense had it coming IMO.. I saw him on a TV programme doing some kind of uphill trek with a female presenter, supposed to be talking with her but he just left her behind - same kind of attitude.

Very ill-judge comments by Tamara,. e.g.

"Lewis Hamilton is a better driver and he's a nicer person."

I don't recall Jenson ever being suspended for breaking a fellow student's fingers.

It was on a gridwalk not a scheduled interview, gridwalks are pot luck, drivers can't stop everything they are doing because someone on a gridwalk clicks their fingers

Broken Fingers?

What happened ?

Nothing, it's a lie that member has been banned for in the past.

Bingo!!! Nothing is as deadly on this planet as a women scorned.

But who ****ing cares really is this racing news.

ok I changed my mind, it's sexist. Obviously, she felt slighted by Button but her views on his championship are shared by quite a lot people here, we have threads about "tainted", "unworthy" WDC, but no posters here were attacked as "stupid bitch", "garden slug". People jump on her about how she's not qualified and she only got the job because of her dad. But if we're honest, we did appreciate her as an eye candy when she worked for sky. I don't remember people had such problem with her F1 knowledge before she made those comments about Button.

If Louise Goodman made comments about F1 for example then they can be taken seriously as she has credibility and a track record but Tamara is there for eye candy so should not make F1 comments as it makes her look stupid

"only 6 wins" was the most pathetic bit, yet she goes on to bum Hamilton who won a title by the skin of his teeth with 5 wins, she is right to be taken to task for her hypocricy

Then she says it is wrong Button won title because he had the best car when he had never been successful previous but she can't seem to grasp the fact you need best or 2nd best car to be a champion

What's so outrageous about her comments?

She made them knowing Jenson wouldn't be able to answer back in the same manner.

Tamara is just exposing to the layman or laywoman the reason that I don't fancy Jenson myself. I like that he's a Brit, I like that he's a fighting driver, i like that he's been the underdog for a long time. But I don't actually like "him".

Maybe someone like here who has no celebrity goggles on or F1 goggles on sees things a bit more clearly. I for one welcome a presenter or interviewer who can do as such in F1.

"Jenson wouldn't have won in equal cars"

Tamara, are you a regular poster here?!

You should have stopped reading as soon as you saw "Daily Mail".

This coming from some air head who would be nothing without Daddy's money and influence. What a joke. At leat Jens earned his place in F1 by working hard and doing what he had to growing up. What did she do? She was...ummm... born? Yeah hard work!
