"the car is the star. sure he can drive but without that car he isnt winning all the time for so long. he may break records but he will never be regarded like hill, stewart, clark, moss, surtess, etc. they drove in machines on the edge and fast. not by design or computers control. " That was their era and those were the cars they had. Nobody regards his as these older drivers coz he's the broken every record there is. Those guys drove the fastest cars in that era so don't hate just appreciate or .Bottas has the same car so you know and I don't see him coming amy close to Lewis | |||

Unless i am wrong because i havnt followed F1 or the Regs since like 2008 because its just a shit now tbh GT racing is where its at for tbh, lots morre action decent BOP which actual allows manufactures to field distinct cars from each other while still being competitive. Nowhere else are you going to a massive boat Bentley GT3R fighting on track with with Ferrai 488 or a Porshe 911. Without the need for stupid DRS mario cart zones for it to be entertaining What i can appreciate though is these cars require different skill sets to the older cars due to just the sheer amount of buttons and electronics they have to deal with and remember But still Lewis comes across a prick and extremely unlikable, bit like he was at school apparently | |||

Seeing as he allso competes in Indy and WEC and won. Thats a massive differrence to competing in just F1, completly different car dynamics and handling. Plus doing what needs to be done to win. LM24hrs for example needs a completly different mindset to short F1 races | |||

Like you said 'he comes across not he is. | |||

He doesn't need to prove that he an amazing driver by driving in a different class or event. | |||

"Fastest car wins. Boring sport. " That’s what I always thought. And generally whoever starts in first ends in first or close. Moto gp is vastly different. But I only watch it if it’s on. Saw my first Grand Prix last weekend for years. Nothings changed. Apart from only knowing the names of like 4 drivers. J | |||

"Fastest car wins. Boring sport. " Same as in any racing sport. You have to be fast and skilful to win. All F1 drivers are very skilled at what they do | |||

"He sed it him selfs he’s nothing compared to the old timers He done a special with top gear ware he took out senna mclaren and even he sed he couldn’t handle it and sed he dosent know how those guys did it and that puts them above everyone The twin turbo manual era will always be the scaryist " That's what almost all humble sportsman say when asked about those before them coz they know it was a different era. Lewis has always praised the older generation of drivers and I can bet you that if you were to give those old timers the current cars they wouldn't have a clue what to do with them. His achievements are not solely based on the car . He's had 2 team mates driving the exact same car and Nico only managed 1 Championship in a year were Lewis' car was having all sorts of problems. These 100 poles are his hard work just like Fangio was the first to lead 100 laps,Ascari first to reach 100 points,Hill and Brabham first to reach 100 gps,Prost first to 100 podiums. This is Lewis' time and he's doing an amazing job | |||

"100 pole positions. First driver in F1 history. What an achievement LH44 " Yes, what an absolute legend. Most will never understand what it takes to drag an extra hundredth of a second out of a 5km circuit. It's so easy to say he drives the fastest car, but they really haven't a clue about the mental and physical aspect of the sport. He's always quick to thank his team, and you can see he's well liked and respected by them. | |||

"There are a lot of things that people forget when it comes to F1. Rules and regulations are constantly changing within the sport. The only way you could even begin to compare drivers from different era's is to put them in the same car when they were at their prime. Modern ere drivers would never be allowed to race in another series by the teams or the sponsors. The only recent exception to that was Alonso, even then it was only because McLaren wanted to keep Alonso within the team. I remember a few years ago John Surtees during an interview being asked about if he thought Lewis would go on to become the greatest F1 driver ever, he replied "no, but he 100% will become the greatest F1 driver of his era" At the end of the day, all any F1 driver can aim to be is the best of his era.............and Lewis Hamilton has absolutely nailed that one to the wall." Well said Sir | |||

"100 pole positions. First driver in F1 history. What an achievement LH44 " . 100 pole positions and first on the all time pole positions.7 F1 world drivers championships and joint first on the all time F1 world drivers championships with every chance of winning a 8th this season.These two achievements to my limited knowledge on F1 means Lewis has to be considered as one of the top 3 drivers ever.Yes F1 has changed over the years but getting on pole and winning F1 drivers championships hasn’t changed it’s all about finishing first with what ever the rules are at the time.Congratulations Lewis on what has been a great career with more to come. | |||
