Lewis Hamilton really is rewriting the record books now!

Six Races in F1 six podiums, one of them a win and Championship leader.

The only shame is that no matter how good he is he has to fal at some stage adn it will get harder and harder now.

yes very true.
he is not scared.
i know what will happen:
he will crash once, and then he will get a shock and then wont be the same again. he is class though iin every field.

He's bound to crash pushing as hard as he does.  I just hope he gets straight back behind the wheel & keeps pushing again...he may force Schumacher out of retirement too.
Did everyone see that?  Because I will NOT be doing it again!

As good as Shui was I got fed up around the time his team mate kept letting him go passed or when he pulled out the dirty tactics.

Nice to see some new blood have a go.

Cant disagree he was one of the greatest but let himself down with the dirty tactics and the lads letting him win. He left things sour for me after that.

An interesting race, no doubt, and Hamilton proved he is more than a match for anyone out there. Qualified in P1, got to the first corner in P1 and even forced an error out of his team mate.

Anyone else notice how Hamilton seems to get that McLaren to drift? It's amazing to watch, the guy slides F1 cars, under control. I'll admit he's good.

Schuemacher was an awesome talent but he was prone to doing some fairly cruel things on the track and maybe trying to little too hard to force mistakes. If he hadn't have been World Champion so many times, I think he may have found himself under a lot more scrutiny from the stewards. But he was a good driver.

Be interesting to see how Hamilton keeps it up, and for how long.

Cheers

hamilton has raced in other series before, and he must have crashed a few times, so i doubt a shunt in one of these super safe f1 cars would phase him.
just look at the prang kubica had, not a single broken bone after hitting a wall at over 100mph

Hats off to hamilton, Law of averages hes going to bin it sooner or later,    On a personal note I think Takuma sato drove a blinding race =D>   Yes he has been a tad of a livewire, But has always been like that since he first landed over here and went into vauxhall juniors ect-  I think other people having a little fear towards you is a good thing :lol:

  Must be a lot of head scratching going on @ honda at the moment when last years derived cars are out qualifying/finishing higher than there current model :-k

Dude, ain't that the truth! Them cars need a heavy rework, and soon. It's like Button given up trying, but if he hasn't got the machinery to do the job.....
