Lewis, a piece of advice on how to be cool...?

Question

Dont tell people you think you are cool...what kind of a loser says "i have a cool image". Thats surely the antithesis of cool. I really hate his smugness. Anyone else here think thats one of the most loser like comments you've heard?

Answer 1

Lol, that picture in todays papers made me laugh. Nice work Vodafone for making him do it. 'I have a cool image' lol.

All this proves is now not only does he look like an 8 year old, he talks like one too

Answer 2

This just proves what the article said: he needs a PR guy. He's a pretty down-to-earth person actually, if you paid attention last year when Alonso had diarrhea of the mouth, but everyone makes mistakes. I think he just wants another win really badly. Once he gets that (hopefully tomorrow) he'll calm down again.

Answer 3

To be honest, from the moment Anthony Hamilton said, "We feel no pain" after losing the World Championship by an agonising point, whatever image I had of Lewis (which, incidentally, was a very good one, coz I hate Alonso, and he was bashing him realy good), just deflated. I mean, who makes such loser comments? This is just one more in the line of "The Hamilton Loser Comments Show". Stay tuned for more. :P

Answer 4

Hamilton is the most popular, always talk of the town, rookie ever.. wether it is good or bad.. whatever...

all i want to see is the neck to neck battle between Kimi & Lewis. overtaking, slipstreaming... that's the entertainment i want, not their images... but i never see, it's not happening...

EDIT: sorry tilly, but it's less than 2 Hrs. to go before the greenlight. Let's get it on!!!

I'll bet for kimi, you bet for Lewis.

Enjoy!

Answer 5

I read the comments from that article and I have to say I agree with the person who wrote: "How to be cool. Lesson #1: Don't talk about how cool you think you are!"

Answer 6

I think he's cool. I think all the drivers are cool. I also think Lewis is being picked apart by people who just want him to fail. they did this to Schumie too.

Answer 7

Yeah well.. it's comments like that make me prefer Kovy. I'm a mac fan but I won't lie, I was all excited when it looked like Heikki had made pole position.. it doesn't seem to happen any more with Lewis. He's not a bad guy or anything, it's just that his personality is a bit annoying, but he's a good driver and you have to admit he did a good lap on those tyres. Sometimes I wish he didn't speak at all..

By the way christos I think your misread, it said Hamilton and defending world champion (Kimi).. etc etc. But yeah the picture of "Rubens Massa" cracked me up..

EDIT: Hey dont get me wrong! I dont want him to fail.. he's a McLaren driver after all, and a pretty good one too. But the problem is, I remember the first time I read one of his cocky comments, this was before the start of last season, and I was like, "ok that was a bit arrogant.. but I guess it's just my idea.." but then you hear him say these things again and again and again.. it gets annoying! Did the people who say he is not one bit annoying read the article? It's horrible. Well not just that one but when you have read all the cocky things he has said, you read that and you think "Please God not again!".

I hate when he says those things because he used to be my favorite driver. I was the happiest guy in the world when he won his first race.. I remember I actually posted a question that went something like IN YOUR FACE HAMILTON DENIERS (not a question at all..), I really was excited, everybody said he wouldn't win a race that season and he proved them wrong.

But his personality has made me change my mind. I think he is a great driver, but I try to avoid reading these things because they make me sad honestly.

Answer 8

Ok, so perhaps the picture of Rubens Barichello starring here as "Felipe Massa" is something we can all live with.

But Hamilton "defending world champion"?

Give me a break.

Whoever wrote this should go back to obituaries.

EDIT:

At least they have replaced the picture now with Hamilton's.

Answer 9

Playboy I couldn't agree with you more.

Why do people focus so much on any little remark he makes and then turn it against him. I am at a loss to understand why this  is. He isn't a bad guy.

Answer 10

Thank you. I agree.

I much prefer bada$$es like Alonso, Montoya, and the ruthless and "cheating" Schumi. Even Jacques Villeneuve and the "Mute one from the Arctic Kimi" These guys don't give a toss what others think. Lewis, on the other hand, loves to look at himself in the mirror too much.
