    Hi Lewis
    I have always been a fan of F1 but never as much as I am now – I would not get up at 4.30 in the morning to watch anyone else- You are a fantastic driver and a real joy to watch. You are the number 1 in my eyes ! What I do not understand is why you are treated the way you are by the other drivers and teams, I have come to the conclusion it is just sheer JEALOUSY! I think it is fantastic that we have a BRITISH driver winning his way to the top for all of us BRITISH people to be proud of you are putting us on the map !
    I admire your staying power because after the time you have had from other drivers and interveiwers if I had been you I would have given up by now. But boy am I glad you havent and in any case it is your dream isnt it. It seems the team to drive for is FERRARI as they make up the rules as they go along or play dirty. Well I have all the faith in the world in you and wish you every success in the next race I wont wish you luck because you are so talented that you dont need luck. This year my lovely Lewis is your year so get on and shpw them others how its done and I look forward to watching your next race I wouldnt miss it for the world.
    All my love and best wishes for your future
    Karen x

    Hey Lewis

    best of luck for the ramaining 3 races, i’m behind you all the way,

    i was gutted when your gearbox failed in brazil last year! :o to me you’re the champion :) nearly won in your rookie season, just remarkable.

    you have a comfortable lead now but as you probably know better than anyone; anything can happen, so best of luck , and i’ll be waiting to see you as world champion at the end of the season!!

    Pls tell me it’s true: I heard Kimi is going to practice for the next race in Sunbury with a Tesco trolley, cause ones you can handle those you’ll surely be able to have a crash free race with a f1 car. Also, despite ferrari not following safety measures when they released the fuel hose (short sleeves and no fire-proof clothes) they are still going to blame Lew for causing Alonso to take off with the hose. I bet you no point deductions for Ferrari there. Anyway, natural justice for Lew all the way…one way to the Chamionship, love it!!!

    Hi , Lewis

    Well done in Singapore. You did scare me a little in Q2, but it came all good at the end of Q3. Lady luck works in mysterious ways, i mean “they” took 6 points away from you in Spa, looks like those points just came back. Only 3 races to go and you’ll be the one who will be crowned this year.

    Well done Lewis i really enjoyed your driving again…..10/10

    Hello Lewis,

    Really well done mate, I have been following you ever since seeing you on the local news programme all those years ago. Like every one else I wince at every overtaking move you do when you are racing and will you to win every time you are racing.

    Every penny you have earned to date you deserve every cent, you are humble in everything you do or say, for your makers sake dont let the new found glory go to your head. I want you to do something that possibly a very few drivers have done in the past and that is to prove the small minority of people wrong because they are only jelous little button pushers and thats all they are.

    I will allways follow you i will allways be looking out for you in willing you on in your young career.

    You can do this you can win the championship, and all the best of luck to you and your family.

    Kindest regards

    Adam J Kennedy

    Hi Lewis !!!
    very nice race you did today ! Have in your mind that God is a God of justice ! God has given to you the points that the FIA didn’t want you to have in order to be the virtual champion than Felipe ! A new history of formula1 page is going to be written I’m sure you will be champion. God bless you and good luck for the next race under rain like last year ! Go go go go !!!!!!!!!

    Well done Lew!

    3rd is not bad atall and I sense a bit of ‘inhibited’ driving by you now after them ‘idyats’ dragging you ‘through the mud’ so to speak! and I wouldn’t blame you if you just ‘went along for the ride!!!’ lol!
    I’m sure you will win this Years’ Championship, even without too much of an effort, God is looking after his ‘good’ people and that is why the Ferrari’s got their ‘just’ deserts.
    Remember, what goes around comes around!
    Can’t wait for your next race in Japan and hope you are well rested and ready to finish the season on ‘top form’!
    Go on Lewis show dem!!

    Lewis, isnt God good. He is a just God. Ferraris’ thieving, costed them a loss on doubles. hahahah. keep up the good work mate. I will continue to pray that you win all the way and the championship is yos.

Tu as été sage et c’est très bien car il ne faut pas négliger les points intermédiaires, il faut viser le championnat. Il faut savoir parfois être raisonnable et ne pas tenter le diable et finir dans un mur. Félicitations Lewis, ALLEZ encore trois courses !

    Well Done Lewis!!
    Where was Massa? Oh yes, last. If he was such a great chamption why did he not move up the grid like Lewis? This is justice best served. The six points taken unfairly and neither Ferrari cars anywhere near! Can’t wait for the last three races, but will be a long cold winter without F1.
    I nearly died when they gave Massa a penality – I thought I was dreaming, but I suppose they could afford the luxury as he was already last. Typical get again, gave Massa something that did not affect his race. However, Rosberg has a 10 sec stop and HE was able to come second. As one of the commentators asked “What does that say about Massa?” Well what does it say? That basically he’s c**p and needs the FIA to help him get his points. I think Kimi was asleep again going into the wall. Red not that lucky for them today.
    Again, well done Lewis you deserve you place on the podium and well done to Alonso and Rosberg too. It was a never ending track to race – time seemed to drag!!

    Hi Lewis,

    I’m so disappointed and sad that you didn’t win te appeal. Actally it is not fair..I think they have to analyse those rules and the FIA immediately.
    But anyhow..You are so high talented, and I know you will make it possible to win the next race in Singapore. A lot of fans expect you to win, but don’t worry if your not..We still love you and stay behind your back.
    I’m wishing You and Heikki and the MCLaren team the best in Singapore.!!!! It’s a big challenge for you and the rest of the other teams.
    You are the fastest so far…and hopefully you’re doing well for the next day and of course on sunday. I will watch the race tomorrow and sunday.
    I just got more and more interesting in car racing since you got into F1.
    What a spectacle….I got your latest video,a nice Lewis cap, wich I was wearing at the grand prix of Belgium, and a jacket also of Vodafone MCLaren team…I LOVE IT!!!!
    YEEAAHHH GO FOR IT.. LEWIS!!!
    Greetings and kisses to you Lewis,your dad Anthony,Nick and Linda and the rest of the family..
    Please!!! Lewis send me a message!!!(I wish)…
    LOVE YOU!!
    YA BLESS!!! AND BE CAREFUL!!!!

    Lewis is like a messiah when he is in the crowd. I met him earlier at Silverstone he was protected by officials and I sigh: “Oh Shh” out of desperation for missing a great opportunity for him to sign my cap, He heard my plea, stop, look back, smile and put his hands out , took my cap and ever so cool and calmly sign it!!!!! I’ll never forget that, ever…Thank you Lewis. His whole family is an inspiration, each for different reasons. That day, they all allow me to take pictures with them:”Shhh” Dad Anthony and brother Nick, very approachable and friendly.

    Food for thought if Lewis had been given a drive through penalty during the race surely he could have done it on the very last lap crossing the finish lane in the pits , so the penalty time would not have been the whole 25 seconds maybe he could have won the race in the pit lane?

    Hi Lewis ;

    This whole penalty issue was wrong, and i’m sure , that even a lot of Non- McLaren fans would agree on it. With only 4 races remaining, this will be another close one. I know you can do it , because you have the right ingredients. You have got the complete package inside you , Lewis, no wonder there are so many enemies for you out there. Every driver right now look at you as No.1, and they all measure themselves to you.

    I can hardly wait to see you racing again in a few days.
    C’mon , Lewis show them who is “the man” out there.

    Mclaren are jinxed!

    Fernando Alonso, last year over “Ferrari Gate”. Of course the guy was willing to use the information to his advantage, but as there wasn’t any against his team mate, he started crying like a baby and blew the whistle to his mum and dad (the stewards). Little Baby!

    Ferrari seem to have F1 under the thumb, they always seem to get the stewards decission. I notice that same race, where Lewis was penalised, the Ferrari’s battled each other to the first corner and one made use of the runoff and benefitted from it. Where were the stewards then?

    Maybe F1 just want us to forget Max Moseley’s sex life (Sieg Heil) or Bernie Ecclestones haircut.

    Conclusion, over paid, self loving, tax haven living, angry, pompus pricks who drive around in circles while we subsidise their lifestyles. We sit through their races and interviews hoping that one day, we will be as entertained as we were during the race build up.

    Sadly, F1 for me is only good for watching in between cooking Sunday lunch. Who needs it, stupid petrol heads wasting our precious resources by using more fuel in 1 lap than I use in a week.

    OK, you know I’ll stil be watching :-) Good Luck Lewis

    Don’t let the appeal put your hopes down, you don’t need it anyway! You can still win the championship without their points.. Just as Lin said you can win on merit.. I hope you win the championship fair and square so that nobody can dare object.. You truly deserve it! We’ll be praying for you, and God is on your side, leave it to Him and do your best as always :)

    Can’t wait to see the night race! And good luck adapting to the weird timings lol! Having breakfast in the afternoon, super at 1 a.m., and going to bed at 3 a.m.- now that’s a challenge!

    Dear Lewis,

    You are my idol and I like you and your team. You are the best driver from these wordl. Michael Schumacher is not the best. If you will be in a so fast car likes Mercedes McLaren or Ferrarie, you also can be the best and you are it. The FIA is an damned organisation. I the biggest fan in my town from you, yes thats true.

    PLEAS send my an autogram from you. I know that you want your quiteness between the races. But it’s my biggest wish. Please!

    OK you need to put this behind you Lewis and use to win on Sunday. That way you show them you do your winning on the track and not in the court room or with ‘help’ from FIA. We ALL knew it was a long a fruitless chance, but you never know FIA might have done the right thing (lovl). You just need to concentrate on your racing now.Remember when you win the Championship it will be soooo much sweeter.
    We are all still behind you and supporting you all the way.
    Be strong, focus and win in Singapore.

    I am not Lewis number one fan, but the 25 second penalty – drive through is not correct. Appelation inadmissible? For who? Lewis is the real winner at Spa. Everybody watch him behind Raikkonnen’s car after they crossed the finish line just before La Source. How far – according the judges – should Lewis stayed behind when he left Raikkonne to regain his position, twenty five seconds? Inadmissible! The Ferrari car was erratic under the wet track and also KR closed the door at the infamous chicane. How does FIA play the rules? Massa missed the chicane as well at Monza when Lewis was just behind him but I can see the marshalls kept silent. They also punished Glock at Spa, but they didn’t punished Alonso who overtook Vettel at the same spot-same lap. So who understand those race marshalls? Vox populi claims for Hamilton’s victory!
    Thank you Lewis for being a hell of a driver and you are still the number one contender for this championship! Even I am not your number one fan, you deserve it!

    Yes, Liz, I totally agree with you. This was already decided before they even went to Paris. Well, of course they bought time, because McLaren Mercedes lost precious time with this court case. Why then first letting the appeal come into court if they will smash it out of court the next day. Mafia money is ruling the FIA and Ferrari. Mr. Thatti (steward from Monza)showed his face already with the FIAT boss and this proofs to me all the false in this system.

    Just check out this link
    http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/sport/motorsport/article25408.ece

    “Money makes the world go round…” “If you can’t beat them join them. “This is the credo of all these big headed men like Mosley, Ecclestone and all their “zombies”.

    Lewis, just keep your head up and show them on the track who the born racer is. This is the only way to beat them all – if you stay cool and do not cut any chicane, because they are waiting for your mistakes, I think they have 100 people employed in order to catch every centimeter of what you are doing. lol!. You showed especially in Hockenheim and in Monza what your driving skills are about and this can nobody take away from you.

    You are already the world champion, not on paper, but in the hearts of your fans. You brought a lot of people back to F1 and without you driving they would not have sold so many tickets and would not have so many TV viewers at all!

    God bless you and keep you.

  87. Dont worry Lewis. You are already a winner. You have already shown the world that you can drive with the best. Be it good or bad, I read more about you LH than any other driver in F1 lately. Just do what MS did several times, dont go round them, push them off the track or better still block the track. He got away with it several times but then he did drive for the reds………bless em!! That bit about the stewards saying they will be ok in the coffee bars of Farari country because they penalised you, is that right? surely it hasnt come to this has it?

    Lewis, I noted early on that you gave God a “thanks” when you won an early race. This past week as you were interviewed by Speed here in the U.S. you noted your increase in your “faith” and “religion”. Would you be willing to expand on that. I am a very avid F1 fan and have frankly looked for men of faith in the paddocks for over fifteen years with little signs of any. I was pleased to learn of Ayrton Senna’s strong faith and have a quote from him with an autographed photo and a litho in one of my lanes at my ophthalmology office here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The quote basically quotes “Nothing can separate me from the love of God.” It was said of Senna at the time that the other drivers felt Senna believed he was invincible and they thought some of his wild moves were possible because of his incredible faith in God, always there to protect him. Interesting.
    Congratulations on such an incredible career and keep up the “faith bites” we are so encouraged by.

    In my humble opinion, I think that Hamilton deserves to win because he did not cut the chicane on purpose, but did so to avoid colliding. I know some ppl may say that he could’ve avoided it all together, and I’m not an F1 driver to judge.. I really wish that McLaren win the case tomorrow, and if they don’t my most important wish is that Lewis wins the championship. The points he may gain tomorrow would help a lot, but if he doesn’t get them back then I believe he can do it!

    Praying for you…

    I don’t think the problem was giving the place back to kimi but how close lewis was after he gave it back. Had he slowed down and pulled in behind kimi insted of cutting the chicane he would have been nowhere near that close. Anyway we’ll see what happens today.

    “The white man still has the power and will do all in its disgusting power of preventing a black man from winning the WDC”

    You said:

    Your comments ARE racially abusive, just because you don’t think so doesn’t mean they are not to others.

    And calling the bible a “fictional book” is very offensive to the many christians who post on here and lewis hamilton himself. Your attitide is extreme ignorance.

    Liz Jones, the truth is the truth. I don’t know about some passage written by some bloke thousands of years ago in a fictional book. But it is a shame that Lewis Hamilton fans can’t stick together and support him as one without having a go at each other. It reminds me of why the Left is always in trouble in politics – instead of fighting the opposition, there is a lot of infighting.

    Hi all ;

    I had read all the most recent comments again i must say that i completely agree with ” AUDREY ” & “carl(catz). I’m a hardcore F1 fan since i was 10 years old. I like all F1 teams, so i don’t understand that why peolple try to push down one team or it’s drivers. Every team has high & low point as the years are passing. just a way of life.

    If you look back in the history of F1, approx. every 20 years it would take, to see a new F1 driver like Lewis to enter Formula 1. People should be happy about it instead looking for all sort of nonsense to attack him with. Let’s face it: F1 IS NOT FOR EVERYONE !!!!!!!! If you don’t like it, move on.

    Just because Lewis is a mega-potential F1 driver who happens to be “non-white” , so what. Since when became this precious F1, a “white man’ sport” ? His colour has nothing to do with his appearance in F1. The skin colour would not be enough to keep you in even in a small F1 team, like Toro Rosso trust me.

    People just simply remember that how many times in the past SENNA or SCHUMACHER had been attacked for all sort of things. Ofcourse then they could NOT pick on a “dark” skincolour. The critics are never happy and they will alwasy find something ( some crap ) to nibble on.

    Let’s face it : Regardless who the title winner will be at the end of the year, there will people they will be unhappy. ( some of them probably never happy, anyway. )

    Like it or not, Lewis H. is tha “alpha”-male in the current F1 world and that’s why people try to fight him OFF the track. He is the No 1 target to beat, so that’s why some people find it hard to “like him”.
    After all McLaren pay him to drive to the MAX., instead of “to try to please everyone” out there.

    Go Lewis, you are No. 1 !!!!!!!!!!

    You also said:

    “Unfortunately, Fight the Power, racism rules again in F1. The white man still has the power and will do all in its disgusting power of preventing a black man from winning the WDC.”

    What kind of inspiration is this then? Blatant racism is what it is. Calling white people disgusting and suggesting that they want to keep black people down.

    This kind of hypocrisy makes me feel sick.

    Lewis, You’ve got to win the WDC this year Because my 3 year old daughter sits with me and watches every Grand Prix and gets so upset if you don’t come first. More importantly, I’ve bought a 6′ long McLaren flag + flag pole that’s going outside our house for a week in your honour when you win the championship in Brazil.

    Good luck mate, anyone who knows anything about F1 is routing for you. When Kimi left McLaren I was really upset but the team has been blessed with your services, you all deserve victory of the highest degree!

    Lewis is young,and the young are often “cocky” of their ability sugar in response to your msg below that you left -

    – “Is anyone going to sugge LH learns some humility ?
    His lack of it is really turning a lot of people off him.”

    Lewis is not turning ME off him, and i think he has just the right balance for some one so young, who is truly gifted and under immense pressure. on and off the track!

    Lewis is very sure, and why not…have you seen him drive….

    Dear all Lewis fans,

    Maybe this article throws a bit more light on what “Lyman B.” said yesterday afternoon.

    http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/sport/motorsport/article25408.ece

    Not even that the race steward from Kenya (Mr. Thatti) manipulated races in the past and has connections to FIAT, he was the only one who questioned Lewis after the race in Spa.

    Just get one point clear, Charly Whiting was the one who gave the OK for the falling back after Lewis cut the “bus stop” chicane and gave also his OK after Lewis attacked Kimi again. This Charly Whiting was also the only one who reported this incident to the stewards after the race (watch out for the FIA report http://f1.gpupdate.net/en/. check out the pictures for the race in Spa and this penalty document no.49) A kind of a “two-face” personality.

    Lewis is a racer and he is behaving like one on the track. The same like Michael Schumacher. He pushed Hill a lot of times from the track! Face this if you would like to judge him pushing Webber and Glock in Monza! This was nothing compared to Schumacher!

    Anyway, Lewis, you are the champion this year no doubt about it. Singapore, Japan, China and Brazil are yours.

    God bless,
    Julian (your biggest fan)

    Interesting comment sugar, if a little direct! Even James Allen, usually found elegising about him, remarked that he’s not top of the popularity stakes. You could say that’s because he’s a threat to other drivers I guess, but historically there have been drivers who’ve challenged others and not felt any degree of unpopularity. There may be something in what you say if James Allen has mentioned it too.

    Do you think there is a race issue?

    Objective Observer, Sept 16

    If it was genuine then no probs just that in my opion with whats been happening they should have had the safety car genuinely and then the race starts as they all get back to their grids with the safety car off. Not race starting with safety car. I stilll question that.
    And Massa stil with is cooked car, well he would never beat Lewis. If he was good, he would have been doing it all this time. But just having a one time thing chancer, it does not hold any water in my books. Massa who gets points by just being handed to, he never works for them, LEWIS works for his points. So to be honest with you Massa isnothing to write home about in my books. Thank you very much for you comments tho.

    Lewis, you will win it this time.

    You will still beat the Massas in their Ferraris’ that are knowin for pulling better on straight than any other car on the track.
    Good luck

    I agree with GABOCA ( 36 ) last year was last year and Lewis wasnt to blame for others stupidity or disloyalalty, Lewis & Ron & Mclaren should have had a HUGE win and celebrations last year and instead were penalized in the harshest way, and ALONSO jumped(pushed?) Ship. Lewis, Heikki(who is just getting better & better) and Ron, and the Team have been doing a brilliant job this season considering the fines and restrictions imposed on them for last years”waterGate” :-)
    I like ALL F1 Teams and I am in the Mclaren camp, but i still enjoy watching and talking about other Teams and Drivers, and I dont slag them off or go to their site and leave crap MSG about them, so why do other so-called F1 Fans feel the need to slate Lewis is beyond me?? ive seen it all on this site, peeps goin on bout his colour, his driving, his big head. and crap like “just do everyone a favour and hit a wall” all i can say to peeps that put such crap is please find another sport to watch because F1 doesn’t need people like you!

    Anyways Lewis just relax, get your game head on and show EVERYONE that you are a CHAMPION! you can do it!

    Also, please DON’T bring back the Alonso “story ” from last year because it’s OVER. He can say thank you for himself, because he had created all that for him last year. He should be embarrassed for his childish play all season last year, and made a complete fool out of himself in front of the world. His last year’ acting would make other big teams to think twice to think about employing him in the future. So , please don’t try to drag Lewis into that crap. If you don’t like Hamilton then maybe you should NOT visit this website.

    Toni – Sept 14th

    They used the safety car to start the race as it was considered too dangerous to use the normal start from the grid, given the attrocious conditions and extremely poor visibility. Also don’t forget that Massa pulled off a great overtaking manoeuver on Lewis off the start previously so he has some serious competition when it comes to getting away.

    Even after the safety car pulled in the conditions were extreme so it seems like a good decision all round if it makes the start safer.

    What is up with the other F1 drivers complaining about Lewis Hamilton’s driving? Surely, the stewards would have penalised him if they thought that he did something wrong, they haven’t wasted time in the past? Alonso, Webber, Glock – you are all sore losers. Face it, you can’t drive in the rain and you don’t have the skill that Lewis has and that is why you cry like babies. Alonso forgets very quickly that he also drove his heart out and that is why he won the championship twice. Schumacher used to also overtake like this but when Lewis does it, then there is something wrong. Give Lewis a break – he is out there to race and according to me racing involves overtaking else it would be so boring. All the driver’s complaining, please grow up and don’t blame Lewis if you can’t drive.

    You are undoubtedly the best of all the drivers out there today, the only fact is you dont have to defend yourself everytime something goes wrong, we all know what you are capable of. When you try to defend yourself expressing your confidence people sometime take it as arrogance, even so there is nothing wrong with a little arrogance.
    But you it would be more pleasing if you just let your driving do the talking as we are sick of people who keep saying that you are arrogant.

    Dear Lewis,

    You are really the best racer among all the drivers in F1. Watching you overtaking all the drivers until you nearly caught up Vettel was great and reminded me of Ayrton Senna.
    Just forget what some drivers say they would love being in your position. That’s all!

    Anyway, the only thing what was not so nice since a few races are the pit stops. Sometimes it looked like your team was calling you in too late or too early and you were caught up in traffic after that and had to fight back your position.

    Just take it easy.

    God bless you, your family & your team

    Lot’s of love,

    I hope in the next 4 races everything will work for you 100 % and you will score 10 points in each race. Just try to get the pole position and show them all who the World Champion is.

Le principal est que tu reste le leader de ce championnat. Il ne faut pas oublier que le championnat s’est joué à un point l’an dernier. En tout cas, Bravo pour cette belle course.

    I have been watching F1 — every race, every season — since 1997. Lewis Hamilton is one of the best drivers I have seen in over 11 years as a devoted F1 fan. He is making longtime veterans of F1 look like rookies.

    Here’s my take on Spa: If someone tries to tell me that, in that race, Kimi Raikkonen would not have done exactly what Lewis did were their positions reversed, I would laugh out loud.

    I would ask everyone who can get their hands on a race tape of Spa-Francorchamps to watch closely again that disputed segment. Kimi did push Lewis off the track – you can see his left front wheel turn out toward Lewis’ car. When Lewis got ahead again after the turn, farther down the track, Kimi rammed him from behind. All this is on the tape – I watched it 5 times, during and after the race. So, in my view, Lewis did the best he could under the circumstances and deserved the win. Kimi, of course, also got his just deserts by not completing the race at all.

    I was very surprised to hear during the race today at Monza that Lewis may be investigated for another infraction, in that he supposedly pushed David Coulthard off the track. I wish people would watch the tapes carefully. Lewis did not deviate one tire-width from his track line. Just watch his left front wheel – it didn’t turn toward David’s car at all. David tried to get around him on the outside, bumped into him and bounced off. That is all. If Lewis gets another penalty for that incident, I will have to reconsider if I want to be an F1 fan next season.

    The young drivers on the circuit this year have been a much-needed shot in the arm to F1 fans, teams and sponsors. I congratulate Sebastian Vettel on his win today, Lewis’ teammate Heikki Kovalainen (my second-favourite driver this season), and Robert Kubica on their podium finishes. All well-deserved. I would have been happier to see both Lewis and Heikki on the podium, but oh well, there are four more races to go.

    Singapore, the night race, will be a challenge for all the drivers, and I’m sure Lewis will be successful with at the very least a podium finish. He has the skill, smarts and quick thinking to win, with a reliable car under him. Go Lewis! I’ll keep watching this season no matter what happens to you.

    Your devoted fan, Carol

    WELL DONE LEWIS!

    You played it your way today and have made some personal, tactical moves. Smart! you’re still leading the Championship, you gave them a bit of a ‘Hamilton styley’! mid-race (just to prove you are still the best!) and you must be sick of that podium Champagne anyway! lol!
    There is a ‘nice’ petition supporting you on last weeks ‘injustice’ in Spa ‘winging’ its way to your London Office tommorow! So, hope the appeal gets you your points back that you ‘fairly’ won or maybe the FIA better revise the ‘rule’ book and decide if its actually a ‘competitive’ race or just a pre-planned race ‘fix’!! lol!
    Perhaps they’ll provide all of you drivers with an ‘Fia Handbook’ that you can ‘pull over’ and study if you have time!!!!!! Not forgetting to hand the stewards one too!!!
    I see the ‘FIA’ were ‘out in force’ today, especially Max Mosley!!!Don’t know how they can show their faces but they were on ‘their friends’ turf weren’t they! Don’ think they would have stepped out in ‘Silverstone’!
    Anyway, good luck with your appeal and look forward to seeing’our’ Lewis back on ‘top form’ in Singapore in 2 weeks time.

    Bless!

    Well done Lewis, you showed them how it should be done. You kept your head and played safe where necessary which was important as points are now vital. An exciting race throughout. You did well to get to second place pity about the lack of rain, but again this is all good experience for you. You moved up 8 places whereas Massa stayed in the same place.
    Roll on Singapore. Also congrats to Vettal for winning.

    there are drivers and there are winners ….. today’s top 8 are clearly the drivers who can drive in difficult conditions with sometimes a little weather luck combined with their strategy.

    Well done Lewis on hunting your way through the pack and finishing the race in Massa’s mirrors. The highest mover on the grid! Bad luck on the lack of rain.

    glad to see you defending your place on the track — no more Mr Nice Guy, if you have the driving line defend it … a leaf out of Schumacher’s book!

    I’m off to pack now — see you in Singapore

  185. You have resurrected the interest in this elderly F1 fan. Been captivated by the sport since JC in 1964 at Brands Hatch.

    You have brought back into the sport the quiet composure of a true sporting gentleman.

    You need little advice – as you are mature beyond your years. Just keep doing what you best enjoy & put the politics behind you.

    Am praying for you to win the Championship this year as it will be the perfect result both for you and Ron Dennis – who had such a rocket ship ride last year. Go Go Go….

    Hi Lewis,

    I have followed F1 for over 25 yrs now, supporting Michael for a lot of that time so when he stopped I hadn’t a clue who to follow then you came along and filled that gap.

    I hope you can be just as great as he was and on the evidence so far I’m sure you will so keep up the good work.

    I would just like to say that I think the stewards where completely wrong with their decision last week. Funny how Massa was only find 10,000 euros for, in my opinion a far worse manoeuvre. It’s nice to see how many people agree you acted fair and square but I feel ashamed that your fellow drivers, especially the English ones have not come out to support you. Are they completely blind!

    Don’t let it get you down, all the very best in tomorrows race, give them hell. Nicki

    Hi Lewis!

    Bad Luck for qualifying today but I ‘feel’ that you are not on ‘top form’ because of last week at Spa and you must be under so much pressure particularly when you have all of the other drivers’ saying you were ‘wrong’ last week! Lewis, Truss, they are only saying it because they ALL want to win (obviously) and you know the money that’s involved and the ‘jealousy’ that creeps in. You probably thought they were your ‘friends’ and now you probably feel ‘back stabbed’ by them. Don’t worry, the support is out here with your fans and as we know now, F1 doesn’t do ‘fair’!
    So what if you don’t want to speak to the press, it must feel like the ‘World is against you’ but don’t let that drown you, you are the BEST Driver that F1 has seen in a long time and today was just a ‘blip’! Personally, I don’t think you wanted to be ‘Pole’ today because your ‘heart’ wasn’t in it?! You’ve got to give the others a ‘go’ I suppose! But hey Lewis, get back your fight and let your trusted family and Nicole and your true fans support you.
    Go out there and ‘do your best tommorow’. Blank all the negativity surrounding you and just liaise with Ron and your team! You can do it!
    x :) Good Luck!

    “We thought it was the right way to go at the time because it was getting drier, but the grip level was poor so I came in and switched to extremes.

    “By the time I got out, it had begun to rain and I just missed the window when the track was at its fastest; it was also very hard to pick out the braking points.”

    Hamilton said he would not dwell on the disappointment and is confident he can carve through the field on race day.

    “It’s the first time this has happened to me in Formula 1, so I can’t really complain,” he said.

    “Tomorrow’s another day and we still have a fighting chance to make our way up the grid.

    “I’ll be doing the best job I can.”

    McLaren boss Ron Dennis said the team had simply been caught out by the changing weather conditions, but that more rain on Sunday could play into Hamilton’s hands.

    “The weather conditions made things difficult for everyone, not only us, and in addition to that we were caught out by a less than fully accurate weather forecast,” said Dennis.

    “As things turned out, there was only a narrow window of opportunity in which to cut a quick lap, and things didn’t fall kindly for Lewis.

    “But the weather may be unsettled tomorrow, too, and if so he should still be in a position to score a good result, even though he’ll be starting from a lowlier grid position than he would ideally have preferred.”

    Hiya Lewis,
    Don’t worry about today’s qualifications. We are all entitled to a bad day at the office, but if we know you you will do your best tomorrow, but if conditions bad you just take it easy and finish the race. Lots of drivers will make mistakes which you can use to your advantage you just need to be in there. Keep your head and keep it cool tomorrow. There are other races to truly fight for. No point taking unnecessary risks for tomorrow. I hope all goes well for you and weather what you want. Be positive you can do a lot from 15th. You’ve been there before and done well – just keep you head!!
    We all still love and respect you.
    Forza Lewis

    You did your utmost during the qualifications, you were given thoroughly.

Then now, it is necessary to forget these qualifications and to think of the race, concentrates you on this race. Especially your confidence in you does not lose and does not let itself influence by the media and the badly disposed people who will make very to destabilize you.

    No word from you yet about the disastrous qualifying at Monza, unusual as you’re usually only too willing to talk to the press, maybe it’s because you’re trying to figure out what went wrong. Tho I can understand that it must be really embarrassing when you made all those comments after Spa such as “I’m great in those conditions…I know where to find the grip” and also criticising Kimi saying “if you don’t have the b*lls to brake late thats your problem”.

    I guess you’re hoping the press don’t give you too hard a time about those things; it’s difficult to make such claims and then qualify 15th I suppose. Heikki did a great job today and was a solid second, I don’t know how much info you share but perhaps his engineers could let you have his settings for the race.

    Just to wish you all the best for Sunday at Monza. I know you have the ‘Spa’ incident hanging over your head but PLEASE ‘truss’ that you have soooooooooooooo many people supporting you and you are in the worse place you could be this weekend (Ferrari territory) BUT REMEMBER – You must not let this ‘rock your boat’ because ‘right will always prevail over wrong’ and you are a GOOD person. I pray that you win Monza (because you deserve to), I pray that the ‘Italian’ masses don’t distract you and that your ‘appeal’ for Belgium is successful. The support you have outweighs any of the few ‘negative’ people which are the ‘devils’ of this World. As you know, there are plenty of them, some of them being the ‘FIA’ who let you go through the ‘Winner’ protocol only to demote you when the race interview was over!’ Sick! Every ‘dog’ has its day, as they say!! (mind you, that’s an insult to dogs!) lol!

    Well done in the 2. Practice. Let’s wait and see what tomorrow brings. The forecast looks not so good. It should be the same like today, but the rain should come down in the afternoon.
    Even if all of you have to use “heavy wets” for the qualifying it doesn’t matter. Fact is that the one who can handle these weather conditions will get the pole. And there are only a few (you can count them on one hand) who will manage it. Just imagine the conditions in Silverstone and you pulled away like “Lightening Bolt” from his starting block! lol!

For me it was difficult to watch a very young mind trying so hard to beat the odds and overcome such difficult driving conditions to reach his destiny.

    Hello LH fans. I too feel your anguish with what happened in spa. i watched the race from start to finish and i had a blast especially with the drama and the last 2 laps where the better man came on top. well that said, i agree with Aubry that the British media just don’t apprecite the hero in LH who is working so hard and who manages to have the British Flag risen in so many races. I watched sky news and BBC 24 immediatly after the race and prior to the penalty being anounced they had given hamilton’s legendary win 5 secs of airtime but brged on about Andy Murray qualifing for the US open fianals allthe time. But both news broadcasts anounced the penalty in form of braking news for 45 mins and called out critics to give their viws which were so heart breaking to watch. if only you too were born black.

    Hi, there wasnt a point, only wanted to show peeps what comments some others had said on other sites, i do a lot of surfin and it seems that Good or Bad? lots of peeps are talking about the Belgian grand prix..

    here are some more Facts i have found (NO POINTS,JUST INFO)

    Lewis in the dock

    March 22, Malaysian grand prix
    Given a five-place grid penalty for impeding another driver during qualifying

    June 8, Canadian grand prix
    Shunts Kimi Raikkonen at a red light in the pit lane and is given a 10-place grid penalty for the next grand prix

    June 22, French grand prix
    Incurs a drive-through penalty after stewards rule that he cut a corner on the first lap of the race

    August 21, European grand prix
    Fined €5,000 (£4,000) after arriving three minutes late for the official FIA press conference in Valencia

    September 7, Belgian grand prix
    Charged with cutting a corner and handed a retrospective 25-second drive-through penalty

    Wonder if ANY other driver had this many Penaltys this season? just goes to show really, and Lewis has got a BIG heart to keep bouncing back.
    Dont GIVE UP, The Championship is still yours for the taking….Hope the free run/pratice going ok for you and good luck in qualifying.

    I really wish you non-LH fans would bog off from this site. Can’t you read – it is for LH fans. I wouldn’t go on Kimi’s or Alonso’s fan sites and write nasty stuff, but then that just shows that Lewis fans are nicer, more decent, are all about Lewis, are not childish and vicious. Why can’t you post on your own fan sites? Because you are just really horrible people who have a pathological hatred for our hero, and maybe you all need to go and see a shrink to get over it.

    Dear Lewis,

    All the best for today’s free practice! I am not sure if it started raining already in Monza, the weather forecast said it should start today, but for tomorrow there should be heavy rain and thunder. I hope this will not cause any trouble for all of you.
    You are the “rainman” and you will get it done on Sunday! All your fans are sure of that!

    God bless you, your team, your family and Nicole

    Thanks to you all Lewis fan and those who believe in truth.
    I personaly respect all F1 drivers because its a sport that takes a lot of nerves and great techniques, more also, it involves risk, we all know everything in life involes risk but some risk carries more strength.

    I also believe all the drivers are good, but there are those who stand out to be first among equal, without doubt Lewis is first among equal,
    there are so many qualities to outlin about him and truly those with the professional eyes of morto competition specifically F1, will agree with me that Lewis is indeed a unique F1 driver

    I want you to know Lew, not every one would clap hands for you to win, but don’t let that hold you back, let your focus be clearer and always have Christ in mind, Trust in God and believe in yourself you will win this years F1 world championship, I wish you all the best and just keep wining non stop. success in Italy and we will sing the England national anthem with you again as the winner, God bless
    Destiny Omoruyi.

    Not sure who f1 earth are bu to suggest that Massa is a cheat is ludicrous. What was he sposed to do, refuse to accept the victory?

    And Carlcatz, I’m not sure what your point is. The drivers you quote seem to be in agreement that Hamilton was in the wrong don’t they? If they think the penalty was harsh then the alternative is 10 grid slots at the next GP, as Lewis well knows, bin there done that got the T-shirt. So either way they’re saying he was speculative at least, and ill-advised at worst to behave as he did. Buttons point is what it boils down to, and Hamilton did not take into account the implications of those facts, or if he did he simply hoped he could get away with doing what he did.

    As for asking Charlie Whiting for a ruling, well he’s the race director NOT a steward, and as such he has no authority in that respect. It may be unfortunate that the outcome is a retrospective penalty, but the bottom line is, he gained an advantage.

    And found www.sportinglife.com:-
    Conspiracy, controversy, confusion. Perhaps Formula One should be re-named Formula Con.

    The fall-out from Sunday’s Belgian Grand Prix has sparked outrage, anger, widespread debate, leading to an appeal which means the race will now be won or lost in some London law firm’s office.
    Without a shadow of a doubt, that is wholly unsatisfactory, and not the way one of the most enthralling, dynamic finishes to a race for many a year should be concluded.
    But that is the road the sport now finds itself heading down, as it did last year with the messy, muddled, and somewhat unsavoury ‘cool fuel’ row.
    That was a vain attempt by McLaren to see the classification of the season-ending Brazilian Grand Prix altered, one that would have led to Lewis Hamilton being crowned world champion weeks afterwards.
    Rightly, and to his credit, Hamilton insisted he did not want to win the title in a courtroom, that it should be won on the race track.
    On this occasion, Hamilton will claim he has already won the grand prix once, and so in many respects there is a case to answer.
    But it is one that needs to be viewed objectively, not just through pro-Hamilton rose-tinted sunglasses, or the shade of scarlet worn by Ferrari fanatics.
    For the sake of argument, and credibility, we have to believe the stewards of the FIA – world motorsport’s governing body that often has been saddled with the joke moniker Ferrari International Assistance – acted totally impartially and with impunity.
    We also have to put to one side the fact Alan Donnelly, perhaps not the wisest choice as stewards’ chief, previously made money out of Ferrari’s road car division.
    The charge imposed by the stewards of ‘cutting a corner and gaining an advantage’ has to be taken at face value, because in the wake of the subsequent 25-second drive-through penalty administered, there was a great deal of hot air wasted on conspiracy theories.
    Viewed in context, and applying the rules, Hamilton clearly cut the final corner of the Spa circuit after failing in an attempt to pass Kimi Raikkonen around the outside.
    The 23-year-old claims he did so to avoid going over the kerb and so potentially colliding into Raikkonen and sending them both out of the race.
    But you view any footage of the incident in slow motion, and there is a case for saying Hamilton had a chance to brake and file behind Raikkonen through that closing chicane, rather than the sharp left- turn he eventually executed.
    That is the hardline approach, one that strictly adheres to the FIA rulebook, with the stewards then having a choice of penalties, the one they eventually imposed or a demotion of 10 places on the grid for the next race.
    But in these cases, surely the human element must be factored into the equation because you can bet your bottom dollar no steward has ever faced the situation Hamilton did at that moment.
    With just over two laps remaining, the slowly falling rain making the circuit greasy, and with a win on the line, we are talking about Hamilton making a split-second decision as his heart pounds inside his head and the adrenaline is coursing through his veins.
    If you were in your own road car and you sensed a collision was imminent, you would take evasive action wouldn’t you?
    And then there are the moments that followed, the contention that Hamilton did not hand back enough of an advantage to Raikkonen.
    However, there is nothing in the FIA regulations that specifically states what constitutes a fair advantage, and in this case, data shows Hamilton was almost seven kilometres per hour slower than Raikkonen when they crossed the line.
    I have seen and heard the argument that Hamilton attacked too soon in his bid to gain the lead, but again there is no mention of just how long a driver is meant to wait before making a renewed bid to pass.
    We are talking about racing drivers here, whose job it is to race because that is what Formula One is supposed to be all about.
    Heaven knows there has been enough talk over the years about it being boring, that there is no overtaking.
    Yet here we have two men providing the thousands at the track and the millions watching on their television sets at home the kind of sporting drama we all love and demand.
    Let us not forget that on that penultimate lap and because of the conditions, Raikkonen went on to pass Hamilton again prior to his eventual slide into a wall.
    That was a mistake of Raikkonen’s own making, with what transpired just 45 seconds previously with the corner-cutting manoeuvre was, to all intents and purposes, irrelevant.
    Hamilton’s victory was justified, and certainly should not have been taken away by faceless stewards two hours later, akin to a winning goal being disallowed long after the final whistle has blown.
    Such a decision makes fools of the fans, whilst the sport – and the FIA in particular – attracts the kind of criticism that has been meted out these past few days.
    The bureaucratic stewards should have realised Hamilton’s move had no effect on the result and that a reprimand should have sufficed.
    On the contrary, if Raikkonen had finished second behind Hamilton, then that would have been a different matter.
    But that would have been applying logic, rather than the rulebook, and how often do the regulators of any sport ever apply logic?

    Just thought I would post it for any peeps that havent seen it…

    Roll on saturday and sunday!

    Go Lewis!

    Hey peeps found this at PA Sport :-

    Giancarlo Fisichella (Force India): “I have only seen pictures, and maybe he took a small advantage. That’s why he had the possibility to overtake in braking for turn one. But a 25-second penalty was quite a strong one.”

    Pat Symonds (Renault director of engineering): “As it happened in real time, we were talking on the intercom and said: ‘Wow that was definitely a situation where he has to give the place back’. I guess we weren’t surprised when the stewards were found to be investigating it. Having looked at it again, I feel very, very sorry for Lewis. I think he has been very hard done by.”

    Sebastien Bourdais (Toro Rosso): “I think the rules are very clear. Maybe the penalty was a bit hard, but he’s made the same mistake twice. He did it in Magny-Cours and again in Spa. The penalty is really rough, but in the end it’s up to you to give the position back or not. Pretty straightforward.”

    Niki Lauda (three-times F1 world champion): “This is the worst judgment in the history of F1, the most perverted judgment I have ever seen. It’s absolutely unacceptable when three functionaries (stewards) influence the championship like this. Hamilton did nothing wrong. He was on the outside, he then let him (Raikkonen) by, which is the rule, and afterwards he passed him.”

    Nico Rosberg (Williams): “He did get an advantage because he would not have been that close behind Kimi had he not cut the chicane. But I also think the penalty was a bit harsh as that did not have such a big effect on the actual race result in the end.”

    Jarno Trulli (Toyota): “The penalty was quite big, but I’m not a steward and I cannot decide what kind of penalty should be given. On the other hand, it is very clear he got an advantage out of it. If you cut a chicane and get an advantage you have to give back the position. In Lewis’ case he shouldn’t have attacked straight away at the next corner.”

    Fernando Alonso (Renault): “Lewis had an advantage. If he did the chicane properly, he would never have crossed the line one metre behind Kimi. You lose five or 10 metres and you cannot overtake in turn one. We have said we would give back the position, but at the same time you cannot take advantage of what you did a corner before. If you give back the position, take the slipstream and overtake the guy into the next corner you still have an advantage because of what you did.”

    Jenson Button (Honda): “It’s about gaining an advantage, and with F1 cars, you head into a slow-speed corner and the guy in front pulls away, gets on the power first, and that’s the way it works. A 25-second penalty sounds quite a lot, but that’s down to the stewards.”

    and i found some more reactions to the race which i will post in-min.

    Dear Inge

    Thanks for those links too. Unfortunately Lewis is very poorly served in his own country by the news. When he was given the penalty, Sky News and BBC News 24 just said he was given a penalty for cutting a chicane. They didn’t say that he gave the position back and that the result is controversial, so people who don’t watch F1 will just be under an illusion that he was cheating. And since then, we have heard nothing except that McLaren are appealing. There is nothing about the petition, nothing on the broadcast news about how unhappy people are. F1 is a marginal sport in the UK, but even so, with a sporting hero such as Lewis, you’d think they would report more about him. I have to conclude that it is because he is black and we really do live in an extremely racist country. It is really sad that Lewis is given more airtime in Germany and other countries than in his own country.

    Anyway, us Lewis fans seem like really decent people, unlike the fans of some other drivers I could care to mention, and we should be proud about how we support him. He must know this, but you can write to him at the McLaren technology centre I think or send an email to them to keep them posted.

    Love Audrey

    You are a RACING driver (and a very fine one at that)! You are NOT a follow-your-leader driver (as FIA may want you to be?). You deserved to be awarded the 10 points for your win at Spa, and to me you are the still the victor (albeit, wth the silliness of the FIA, it has to be a moral victory). Keep at it!

    Hi dear Lewis fans, I’ve just read some fantastic news. Pat Symonds who is Alonso’s director of engineering at Renault has just come out in full support of Lewis, saying the decision was wrong, that this sort of thing destroys F1, that he did give back his position correctly, and then did a legitimate overtaking move on Kimi. It’s in black and white here:

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/70457

    All those morons who think that he did wrong and think they are experts and love to put the boot in because they have a pathological hatred for this wonderful man, now you have a true expert opinion in current F1. Not only Niki Lauda, and Jackie Stewart, but now someone who runs a current team in F1. This means that Lewis knows, as we all do, he won in Spa and that Massa is an opportunistic cheat with his cowardly comments about Lewis being “optimistic” at overtaking. I think those at the top of F1 need to get a large broom and sweep out these useless stewards who know nothing about racing, and employ permanent stewards who have actually been in an F1 car.

    But isn’t this brilliant news?

    I normally follow bike racing, but i think Lewis was unfairly done by.
    If kimi can’t drive in wet conditions then thats his problem. It was him who was slowing up, with Lewis gaining ground with every second.
    What is Lewis supposed to do, sit behind him until the finish?
    Lewis in his efforts to pass Kimi, went wide to advoid a collision and in doing so cut the corner, not deliberatly, but immediatley gave the lead back to Kimi, who could have cleared off, if he could drive in the rain, so Lewis over took the “mobile” road block of the Ferrari, and went on to win the race fair and square.
    What annoys me even more is that Massa was given the win, when he was well out of the race for 1st and 2nd places.
