I find it hillarious that Lewis is being branded as "dangerous", "aggressive" and what not. My God, when have you started watching F1? 3 years ago? No one remembers Keke Rosberg? He would literally thrash everything in its path! Mansell? They didn't call him the "Brutanic" for nothing! The epic battles between Senna and Prost ending in the gravel trap? Piquet?

That's how F1 was supposed to be raced: at break neck speed, with a dagger between your teeth. Take no prisioners, the last man standing wins!

These spoilt brats of today are a shame to the sport. If a driver so much as looks croos eyed to another driver, *bam* drive through penalty. It boggles the mind. Bunch of whiny sissies.

Fernando Alonso was a double world champion who finished behind a rookie on countback in the 2007 season. Where's the arrogance?

i am 100% a Ferrari fan. but not a blinkered one. You have 2 see when its black or white. Lewis is going through what every sport person goes through when they are at top. I was amazed how well he drove at China. He is in a class of his own like schumi was. None of the drivers liked MS or said he cheated when he was winning. Before everyone says MS won coz of inferior team mates or orders the same has happened to HK. So shut it. LH will do to Mclaren wat MS did at Ferrari. Ferrari had the best car on the grid and havent won squat. What is more suprisin is they have signed the two morons that with the best car on the grid couldnt win it easily. What is the top brass at Ferrari thinking?

There''s a tiny little thing about "rookie beating the two-times world champion"-rookie had Ron Dennis and complete team on his side...and he almost lost. "Rookie" is not a very precise term in case of LH and McLaren, knowing that LH is linked with McLaren and Ron for some six or seven years..
What a bitter, pathetic over-achiever...
It will be a very sad day for F1 when LH becomes WC...if he becomes... :-o
Vote Kubica for "Driver of the year award"! He''s a driver, not a whiner...

Every driver is arrogant and has 100% self belief Sasha. If they don't they shouldn't be in F1. You don't make it through the lower formula without being arrogant and believing you have everything it takes to beat every driver on the grid and be world champion.

What Hamilton just said is the truth. Alonso is still bitter over 2007 and I think there are many jelous drivers on the grid. I don't believe Hamilton is dangerous. He is a hard racer, and it appears many (but not all) drivers have become used to and comfortable with driving in a nice little procession, doing your overtaking in the pits. This is motorRACING. And Hamilton isn't just a driver he is racer...

... sure he's a little hot hated at time and still lacks experience. I think we all forget this is only his second season. He will mature and get better which is a pretty worrying thought I guess for the rest of the drivers on the grid.

Igor, he hadn't driven the F1 car until the end of 2006, so that makes him very much a rookie, regardless of his relationship with McLaren prior to that. You laugh that he almost 'lost' as a rookie - I'd be quite proud to finish 1, 2, 3 or even 10 points behind a double world champion in my first year, even if the team is behind me (there is only so much a team can do, the driver still has to go out there and do the job). Even more so, if I beat him, like he did.

"Vote Kubica for "Driver of the year award"! He's a driver, not a whiner... "

Hmmm. I like Kubica. But pretty sure he was one of the whining drivers. I very much hope he get's a competitive drive soon as there could be some excellent battles between him and Hamilton over the coming years.

I think as well this is a very restrained comment by Hamilton. He has received a lot of negative comments over the last couple of weeks. The fact that he let his driving the talking this weekend and said very little response shows he is learning to deal with the media and other drivers. Alonso might want to take note of this.
