And Lewis Hamilton matches Michael Schumacher's 7 titles!

[jonneymendoza]

Nice try to deflect things.
That doesn't work even in GD

Its true?

Is Lewis Hamilton the only British f1 driver ever to live outside the UK?

 

[bazzabear]

It known that anyone who wants SIR title has to be vetted.

It was weeks ago and they mentioned that everything is now ok.
Of course HNRC won't give me any details

Only Deuse could use an article stating that his tax status is fine as apparent proof that it used to be problematic.

And recently lando norris i believe or Alex albon. And before you say albon is not British, you can he is. Born and bread in london actually

The bit that was especially relevant was the "Sir" bit (he was knighted in 1971).

What's that got to do with this?

I'll leave you to your deflecting

But I'm right when I say hamilton is a posturing, narcissistic, virtue signalling poseur.

Before you start.
I watched him as a kid in kart racing all the way up till now.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

It is now.

Thank goodness. He can be knighted now he has passed deuse's seal of approval

 

[deuse]

I just don't get appeal of it.
In the US everyman calls me Sir it's just a normal thing and I didn't have to wait

Albon still lives in London; but he now owns a flat in Monaco too.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

If I could afford to, I'd live in Monaco too

Can someone sell to me how lewis hamilton deserves a knighthood but jonathan rea the world superbike champion does not

or is it because one is controversial and the other one just does his job

Can't they both have one? Why do people like yourself seem insistent on pitting one thing against the other.

 

[The_One]

We both know there is zero chance of rea getting knighted lets be realistic here

What's the deal with the BBC. Every single article on the F1 page is about Lewis. Sure it's a great achievement, but he's only equalled the record. Go crazy when he's beaten it. I bet there wouldn't be even one third of the articles if it was another driver such as Kimi, for Fernando.

It's so bad it reminds me of ITV coverage.

I opened the page titled "BBC's coverage of the Bahrain GP' and the first few paragaphs include
"Lewis Hamilton clinched a seventh World Championship and became the most successful racing driver ever with a masterful victory in the Turkish Grand Prix.

The Mercedes driver equalled Michael Schumacher's achievement in terms of titles, after already surpassing the German's number of race wins last month."

What the hell has that go to do with BBCs coverage of the next race?

 

[timmeh]

He will pay his back tax's first.
Then it should be a go....

HMRC have said he's all good from a tax perspective. What does he have to pay?

 

[koolpc]

One more title and he will retire

Bit late to the party. Suggest you read a bit

I guess he may stay for the new cars, but I think he'll want to end on a high and pursue his other interests.
