2024 Australian GP: Post Race Analysis

Are you gonna push for others to not use all the names they call him? Or are you only uncomfortable of me using his actual name? The only place I see or hear of him addressed as Elton or Hamdashian etc is in this forum--that includes SKY sports and every major F1 website.

 

split hairs any way you like - you think he's only lost motivation, I believe his driving speed has also deteriorated also; who cares he's slow.

 

Vettel was like that too. He seemed to lose his mojo at Red Bull when challenged by a new young teammate (ironically, Ricciardo!), and then he did it again at Ferrari when similarly challenged (by Leclerc).

 

I think some people find you calling him Sir Lewis Hamilton all the time condescending, like if you were treating him in a sycophant manner. Don't you agree ? Anyway, that's the feeling I have, being myself not much in favour of honours and distinctions.

 

I can't control how others feel about his name or his honors. If they have a problem with his name, that's their problem. If they ignore all the more derogative names people here call him and focus on what I call him, which is his actual name, then they have an even bigger problem.

 

It could be argued that using the full 'Sir Lewis Hamilton' name is a tad condescending, but 'Elton' etc is pretty childish. I just use the drivers names.

 

A title is not part of a name. His name is Lewis Hamilton.

 

Agree. Still what I call him is still more accurate than the names others here say. Hence why its odd that what I call him is getting the most attention. And I still can't control or desire to control others feelings about it.
