Lewis Hamilton MV F4

Post by duke63 »

Bit too blingy for my tastes but does make a great noise.

Would an F1 team allow their driver to ride a motorbike? Genuine question. I know a few sports won't allow it.

I've never met the bloke, but each time I see Lewis Hamilton the first word in my head is "knob". I'm sure he's a lovely guy in real life.

Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

I'm sure they'd let him ride one...prolly with a few provisos in his contract.
I doubt they'd let him race one.

Iirc Schumacher always used to blat around on Ducatis when he got half a chance.?

As for Lewis, an afwul lot of people who have never met him seem to dislike him. :^
Frankly I don't understand their reasoning, and have tended to suspect it may stem from a touch of jealousy & bigotry rather than him displaying inherent character flaws.??

A lot of people believe me to be a bit of a knob, until they've had a chance to get to know me properly... (nod)







..... Of course when they get to know me they realise I'm actually an irrelevant boring no-mark & an utter knob.

I've only ever really seen him on Top Gear being interviewed.....I thought he came across very well. Guy certainly knows how to drive.

Yeah, that's it. I don't like him because I'm a racist. I voted Brexit and think Tommy Robinson is misunderstood.

Yep, he’s a knob, trying hard not to let being the best in the world at a high profile sport affect him, but sadly he’s failed. It’s a lonely place he’s in unfortunately.
Fwiw Jensen Button isn’t a knob, and it isn’t because he’s white etc, it’s because he’s a nice guy and has stayed that way somehow, despite F1 and it’s attendant nonsense.

Being an F1 driver is a very lonely place and nothing like we imagine. A friend’s son used to race karts withHamilton up until about 11 years old. A few years back they net up for the first time in over ten years. Hamilton told him that being F1 Champion is nothing like as good as they imagined as kids and very little of their time is their own. I would imagine this MV thing is just a paid PR gig.

Personally I like that, paint scheme looks lovely. As for Lewis - my dad met him a few months back at a meeting. My dad said he chatted to everyone and was happy to meet everyone and take pics if wanted...my dad did he was really happy with it all!
