Hamilton... not worthy of Champion

Why I would not recognise Hamilton as World Champion?

Cheat. Call me bad mouth but how on earth McLaren get away just with 100 million fine and their construction points wiped out last season? They should be ban for at least 2 years from F1. Ron Dennis admitted to spygate but they received a whopping 600 pages on Ferrari's blue print design.

100 million in F1 is just peanuts. Imagine Ferrari spent 300 millions a year in developing the best racing car around and let say the information is a collection of 10 years of research. That mean the blue print McLaren stole from Ferrari worth 3 billion! McLaren has the information for a tiny fraction of that. Let me ask you again, is it fair?

The second reason is Hamilton is driving one of the best car in the circuit. I was not impressed with Alonso before but what he has done with Renault now open my eyes on his talent in helping Renault developing better car this season. Before Alonso went to McLaren last season, he drove his Renault car magnificently. Then he went to McLaren and Renault lost his way. This season when Alonso rejoined them for his second stint, he won Renault a few races including first ever night race in Marina Bay, Singapore. To tell you the truth I have yet convinced Massa & Raikkonen are as good as Alonso if they are driving the same car.

Maybe some of you forgot that during Michael Schumacher race in Germany, Martin Brundle (ITV Commentator, ex F1 driver) told the audience that Michael does not possess the best car during the weekend. Yet, Schumacher modified his front aerodynamics to have better grip during entry & exit on each corner. As the result, he got pole and went to win the grand prix.

Second, French grand prix. Normally teams stop twice or thrice for fuel & tyre change due to high tyre wear & tear. Ross Brawn communicate with Michael and ask him to go one second faster per lap on 2nd place car for 4 laps. He did just that. Even Martin Brundle said, he could not believe what Michael has done by stopping four times and still winning the race.

Yep, a good car like ferrari or mclaren is a must in F1...but it still need a good driver to control that car and race it.....

looks what hapenned in Alex Yoong? He could not even race competitively........

Even in A1 races when all the cars are equal, how many races have Alex Yoong won?

We now have a black world racing champion, a black no.1 in Golf and a black president....WOW

Nie Feng,
Yes I wrote this article. I have to confess that I am a vivid fan of Ferrari. But I also fan of F1.

Ray,
Of course I expect drivers who drive for McLaren and Ferrari know more than just accelerator & break pad.

Just take Barrichello as example. When he was with Stewart team he just managed to get into points position. Yet when with Ferrari he won few races.

So for some drivers, the machine has to be spot on. If the car is not 'sweet' then they will have a forgetable race.

I just wonder whether Hamilton can do the same if he jump to Torro Rosso or BMW team for example?

In F1, your performance is judged and compared with your co-driver.....in Hamilton's case, its Kovailanen.....how many pole position did Kovailanen got and how many podium finish compared to Hamilton??

Since both of them have the same car with the same setup, therefore Kovailanen should have the same chances to win as many races as Hamilton win the world champion...

But like you, i am a Ferrari fan....just think hamilton is an arrogant b******
