off topic here.
A must see for all F1 Fans:

When they cut between scenes of his funeral with scenes of those that were closest to him..gets me every time.

"1" is also a must see

Hamilton and press conference. What an arrogant fukking prick. Nobody is bigger than the sport.

I hope he DNFs today.

So you agree that the press can say and do what they want and a driver must just go along with it?

Well with a 33 point deficit the DNFF (Did Not Finish First) is nearly as bad as a DNF.

The press is a dying institution in its current form, they can write what they like about Hamilton and there's squat he can do about it. The press are clutching at straws to make themselves more relevant and pointing fingers at Hamilton is their way of attracting attention and getting more clicks. It's all sensationalism and they need to reinvent themselves or face extinction.

True. It's therefore a sign of the times that Hamilton stood up to them and actually walked out. Hopefully more drivers will follow his example.

Telling the press to go and get ****ed is not trying to show that a driver is bigger than the "sport". The press are the actual F1 leeches.
