Im really impressed with the whole hamilton thing, and it was only down to time before he won his first F1, tbh i rekon he coulnd have won the last one if he hadnt been told to back off, Kids got talent.

i dont think Buttons a bad driver, i just think he's had that many seasons of bad cars its got to him, and hes lost his spark/edge he needs. maybe he will get it back like DC has, i mean come on DC is racing better now than he ever has done and its brilliant. Did anybody else here his on radio comments about the car lol "it doesnt go, it doesnt stop, it doesnt go round corners, but it good fun" made me laugh

TBH I dont really like the F1, i think its mostly down to electronics. But Lewis Hamilton has put a glint back in my eye for F1. Not cos he's doing so well, but because in a certain way there is an arrogance about him. And he is beating the spaniards like everyone seems to be doing at the moment aye Pedrosa :lol:

P.S There will be a Button Hill at Silverstone soon, people shouting c'mon Jenson :lol:

I'm not sure about "Arrogant" I'd go with "self-assured & proffessional". Not exactly Mr Personality but then F1's not exactly well stocked in that department anyway. Anyone know if the safety car did enough laps to score a point?

We'll see how long it lasts. I'm still waiting for Ferrari to throw the toys out of he pram and complain that he jumped out of Parc Ferme before getting weighed (seeing as Massa got disqualified)

But apart from that the best race I've watched in many years and I've not watched for a few years!

I must say I'm a big fan of Lewis Hamilton. It's still very early days for him in F1 but he's certainly no stranger to the McLaren team which might explain why he's appeared to have settled in quicker than Alonso.

He might not have the ability to stick his car on pole every Saturday but he does have good race day consistency and can put in quick (but not always the quickest) laps time after time.

I think you have to have a high level of arrogance and self-belief if you're to be successful as a world class racing driver. If you don't believe yourself to be the best driver out there then you're going to struggle as soon as the lights go out. The trick is not to be arrogant and cocky outside of the car and from what I've seen of LH so far, he seems to achieve this.

He fully deserved to win yesterday and I'm sure there'll be more wins to come but the highlight of the day for me was Takuma Sato passing Alonso :smt053
