radical-one 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 What's up with Lewis showing the "long face" at the podium? What's bugging him now? the Dog, the Girlfriend not coming to the race enough, his Dad, his Team boss, Nico winning and he hasn't, etc.. ? Is he Primadona or just a Drama Queen? I'm sure he's far from having mid-life crisis. I hope Lewis lighten up a little rather than showing his sad ( I haven't won a race for Merc yet) face.

Massa 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 If Mercedes wanted a driver who was happy to finish 3rd, they wouldn't have hired Hamilton. There's a series out there in which the drivers are always happy to lose. Hint: "We had a great fifteenth place run today; our car was top twenty all weekend! I'm just thrilled for the 3M Ford Fusion team to have a good, clean run and bring it on home for next week." In real life, a sour (not sore, mind you) loser would bother me, but it's all relative, and in the context of F1, I kind of want these guys to really want to win.

radical-one 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2013 yep , he's a real drama queen... What’s really bugging Lewis Hamilton? 11 June, 2013 Lewis Hamilton has not smiled much in the past month Visibly downbeat all weekend in Montreal, Lewis Hamilton has played down talk of a rift with Mercedes, insisting he simply has “stuff” on his mind, and admits that he is aggrieved at not yet wiining a race with his new team. The 2008 world champion hardly cracked a smile after the Canadian Grand Prix, where he finished on the podium, two places ahead of his on-form teammate, Monaco winner Nico Rosberg. But during the Montreal race, Hamilton snapped at his race engineer whilst receiving information about the wear of the tyres. “Please just let me drive, man,” the Briton snapped. Hamilton, however, said his reaction does not indicate tension within the team, but simply the tension of the moment as he raced to the chequered flag. Lewis Hamilton in Canada “Being hunted down by Fernando [Alonso] is like being chased by a bull and so I just didn’t need anyone in my ear when I was already at the maximum I could go at,” he said. He was also morose and aloof after just missing out on pole position 24 hours earlier, and poker faced throughout the post qualifying formalities. Hamilton hinted that the main issue on his mind is his battle for superiority at Mercedes, in the recent wake of Rosberg’s hat-trick of poles and Monaco win. “I don’t settle for anything but the best and wins; I still haven’t got a win, Nico has won a race, so I need to get a win,” he said. “What I’m projecting is not disappointment, I’ve just got stuff on my mind.” (GMM) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angellica 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2013 I think it's since they told him not to take his dog to the races with him. He did look pretty glum on the podium, I mean he got a podium, okay so he should have probably got second and Alonso stole it from him, well boo hoo, that happens in racing. Mercedes were the only team that really wanted him other than McLaren, at least he's doing better than them. If his issue is Nico doing better than him, well then he knows what he needs to do, right?

Yep. That'll be the main issue I'd guess and so like you say it's pretty simple. He has to kill Nico Rosberg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah you took that just a bit... okay a lot further than I intended I was thinking more, get his head straight and beat him on the track myself. I had another thought, maybe he's worried what will happen to them after the whole secret, private test thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jean-Pierre 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2013 That may be the case. I heard that brawn might have to go, and that must bother Lewis if it is true. Brawn was probably instrumental in bringing him to merc and if he goes he will not be easily replaced. Or he is just having problem with his girl. You guys know what they can do to you, don't you?
