I had a dream he finishes 7th and loses the championship by a point.
He is not your average brit is he? Hamilton thinks like a winner, which is very rare in British sport. His Hero is Senna and it shows in his racing. All he needs to do is finish in the top 5 but i suspect he'll go all out to win this race as he doesn't come across as a complacent person.
Hope it's a good race.

Ferrari are the rags of formula 1 IMO.
They get away with murder and when ecclestone proposed everyone having the same engines they had a mard because it would level up the playing field.

I cant think of a more boring spectacle than 20 or so overpaid tossers, driving a car around a circuit in processional form and waiting for a engine to blow, a tyre to pop, a cock-up in the pits...to decide who is going to win. I hope Hamilton wins if nothing else then to stick one right up the European racist scum that is praying for a English black man from a humble background NOT to win such a poncy, middle class, pointless, very costly waste of time that masquerades as a sport!!!!!!!!!

Will be a great day for British sport to have a black man as champion in a traditionally white upper class sport, It shows times and attitudes are changing for the better, he is a good positive role model to thousands of young black men .

Agree with all of that, I never watch F1, it bores the ass off me. Good luck to our lad though.
And the poster before you is right aswell "Ferrari are the rags of F1". Come on Hamilton.

I'm reliably told you have to experience it first hand to kind of 'get it'. Watching on TV just doesnt capture the whole experience - sights, smells, sounds and atmosphere.

I think you totally missed my point, up until very recently formula 1 was a traditionally white upper class sport,so it is going to be a gound breaking day not just for british sport but also the fight against racism,he will also give hope to thousands of young british black men because he is a good positive role model.sdm said:I don't care if he's black,white or yellow with pink spots on.He's english so i want him to win.LEE BRADBURY said:Will be a great day for British sport to have a black man as champion in a traditionally white upper class sport, It shows times and attitudes are changing for the better, he is a good positive role model to thousands of young black men .

barcabloo.................i don’t want to start a debate on race when it is not needed, my point is our inner city’s have a lot of young black lads who have slipped of the radar in to crime and gangs for lots of reasons the main one being failed by society in general, or lack of a
Positive role model in their lifes ,Lewis will give hope to a lot of these young lads, it is no different to a young white lad wanting to grow up and be David Beckham simply because they can relate to him

Maybe you know better than the government then, black sporting personalities have a positive impact on young black lads, it is quite preposterous to make a ridiculous statement as you have saying colour does not come in to it when it most definitely does, why do you think young black lads aspire to be rappers then ?,different cultures require different role models people who we can relate and identify too, that is why in a lot of inner city areas a lot of the workers who work with black youth come from the same culture because young black youth relate to them, it would be ridiculous to expect them to relate to a white person.barcabloo said:LEE BRADBURY said:barcabloo.................i don’t want to start a debate on race when it is not needed, my point is our inner city’s have a lot of young black lads who have slipped of the radar in to crime and gangs for lots of reasons the main one being failed by society in general, or lack of a

Lewis Hamilton will be a positive role model unlike some of the rappers.

Could not agree more especailly living in Spain where they think the sun shines out of Alonso arse!
I do agree with LeeBadbuy however that he is a better role model than a lot of rappers, but think he can equally be an inspiration to white kids as well...like Ali was to my generation!

Yeah, that was a good point Lee made re. Hamilton being a good role model for young blacks rather than the gun culture glorified by black rappers.barcabloo said:jimharri said:Getting a bit heavy fellas, yeah? Good luck to Lewis!

There only required as role models because so many black men have a habit of tubbing there girlfriends up and fucking off. The good thing about Hamilton will be if nothing else proof that its possible for a black lad with positive role models around him to make it in a predominantly white middle class sport. His dad obviously stuck around, worked incredibly hard and supported his son through thick and thin. His dad should be the sort of role model our disaffected black youth should be encouraged to be/become
