^^^ Max speaking possibly the finest passive/aggressive BS in history. Gimme a break. So, Max is concerned about offending the British press? Yeah, I buy that...
Max hasn't collided with anyone all season. Lewis has collided with half the field it seems. I think we've found the common denominator, and it isn't Max.
You sure? Question, how come Max has more crashes than Lewis even though Lewis has been in f1 9? years longer? how come max has all those nicknames eg crashtappen - mad max... do i continue? You sure it isnt Max? "The Dutch driver has suffered from a tragic number of 29 crashes on the grid. What is to note that he’s suffered more number of crashes in his short career than his major rival Lewis Hamilton who has suffered from 26 crashes in his rather more illustrious career. The current world champion also has the highest failure rate on the grid when it comes to crashes."
Probably nothing to do with having a car miles clear of the rest of the field. Nothing at all. Any silly **** can give a nickname, doesn't necessarily make it fact though does it? See: Hamdashian. Your ''crash list" needs updating for 2022. Hey guess what, Lewis can finally lead something again, I do believe!
I've seen better wheel-to-wheel racing between Max and Leclerc......regardless if it's on the straight or in the turns....both yield to each others space and no incidents between the both of them. Both have left gaps in the turns and both respect each others space. I can't say that about Max and Lewis. It's more tit-for-tat. You do this to me, I'm gonna do this to you. We've seen Lewis leave the gap open on occasion and guess whose right there?
The picture(Brazil clash with LH), in Autosport about Max' stupid and utterly braindead quote says it all. And he was penalized. The blind here need to get to a Dr LOL.
Sidestepping the HAM/VER war, I will point out that in one of the recent F1.com season highlights (top ten something or other) there were 3 of the top 10 that were either HAM colliding with ALO and VER, and KMAG's pole, partly caused by the RUS trip into the gravel. OK, I'm not a Mercedes fan, there I said it.
Leclerc and Verstappen going wheel-to-wheel is some of the most exciting and enjoyable racing I’ve ever watched. They’re both on the limit, yet so clean. Really a pleasure to see hard racing that’s respectful.
My crash list is both drivers full time in f1. not sorting / chosing dates to fit a narrative... Let me remind you, Lewis was in f1 before max, so its unfair on LH really does this " Probably nothing to do with having a car miles clear of the rest of the field." not apply to Max? Bloody narratives.......
LOL Funny enough, you can find far far more wheel to wheel vids of Lewis vs others than you can of Max vs others ( Lewis is in nearlly half of Max's LOL ), funny enough, you can also find more Max at fault crahs / incident vids than you can Lewis......
LOL selective again i see. did yu fail to spot this bit in the post i was replying too? " I've seen better wheel-to-wheel racing between Max and Leclerc " Since when was Leclerc Max or Lewis?, or is this one of those blind / selective narrative type thingsy? LMFAO Max has not matured either, we all thought he had till brazil
DDDuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh Well i knew we was going to crash, But i just went for it anyway.......... DDDUUUUHHHHRRRAAAHHH. Yep. obviously matured LOL
Brundle even thought Lewis should have given Max room regarding your BrazilGP video incident. Max has matured since his driving. Max drives like Senna who is Lewis's protege btw. You have your opinion and I have mine.
Hmm hmm.. Yep, and max admitted it was his fault after the race, he even admitting preemptively thinking about it before it happened. Sorry, but you can't get a more honest admission..
This entire thread should be renamed "Selective tidbits chosen by the FC F1 experts that show Hamilton is a bum"
You provided proof how Lewis never gives room and caused the wreck. Max was not only along side of him, he at one point was AHEAD, and Lewis still closed the gap. It's his go to move that either has to be considered somewhat dirty or his race craft abilities are pretty poor. Max did this in Monza (turn 4) 2021, as well as Brazil in 2021 and both of those times I think he was in the wrong as well. You posted videos and like to talk about Max 2016, and I think there are very few people who will support Max's tactics back then. He has matured, and if you can't recognize that, then it shows you are blind with "hate". I think Max and Lewis do not like each other and neither are willing to give an inch. I can think of a few times where Max seemed willing to accept a crash rather than backing out, even though he knew Lewis would likely do his push the other guy off the road tactic. The media, the Stewards, and the FIA all seem to think it's okay when Lewis does it, but it's wrong when Max does. That isn't okay. Look how Max and Charles raced each other early 2022. Some of the best racing for the lead I can remember. Both drivers pushed 100%, if there was a gap they took it, but both left just enough room if the car was there.
LOL max came out and said he did it on purpose and would do it again, he knew he lost the 2nd corner when he went wide in the first, your not going up the inside of a car in a better line round a 45 degree corner and not take out the dude on the outside. Let alone the stewards said the exact same, that even if a cars width was available max still would have hit Lewis unless Lewis takes evasive action. Its one of a long line of maxs throw it up the inside and the other driver has a choice, back out or crash, it's like maxs moto fgs.... LOL
Tell you what...pick a page, any page, in this 237 page thread and read it. I used an expression, clearly you took it literally but this thread is LOADED with nastiness regarding Hamilton. But you caught me...no one actually called him a "bum". But literally everything else about his personality, lifestyle, etc has come under considerable scrutiny, judgement, and rancor by many here.
Yeah Max went for the pass on purpose. Do you think they are mistakes when drivers pass people? I said it before, I think he knew the likelihood of a crash was high and he didn't care. He had position around the outside, he knew Lewis likely wouldn't give him room, and if LH turned in on him then they collide. No big deal to Max as he had already won the championship. None of that means he caused the crash because it is undeniable that Lewis did not leave room on the inside, despite having Max ahead of him around the outside of turn 1. As for the Stewards, yeah we have never seen them rule in favor of Lewis and/or punish Max unfavorably. Next you will say Politicians have your best interest as their top priority.
LMFAO your arguing even though MAX GOD DAM ADDMITTED IT.................. He knew, i quote " i went round the outside of turn one, and i knew he wasnt going to leave enough space - but i went for it any way........ He said the same as the stewards verdict for god sake, he EVEN AGREED WITH THE STEWARDS VERDICT....... laughed it off and said he would do it again if he got the chance....... My word............. Yet you still argue.......
I know no one called him a bum in this 237 page thread....but that's you going to extremism to fit your narrative. Quite juvenile really. Regarding his personality, lifestyle, hypocrisy and so on.....it's not just here on FChat for those that pick on his "qualities"....it's everywhere really. It's called freedom of speech.
