I didn't see anything wrong with his "attitude", just admit it, you hate him.

You'll feel better afterwards. :rolleyes:

I really don't. But that doesn't mean I can't point out things I don't like about some of his characteristics. You don't have to like everything someone does to still be a fan of them.

Have a :rolleyes: back.
 
Crap race, and the driver's room with Putin stood there was unbearable to watch.

I think Rosberg AND Hamilton, are both whingers, when it doesn't go their way.

The same can be said of pretty much any pair of drivers who are in a WC winning car.

Senna & Prost
Barichello and Button
Hamilton and Alonso
Vettel and Webber

...and so on. All had needle when the other was doing well. If you know your car is good enough to win the championship then of course you'll be agitated if the other guy is winning.
 
Completely agree, I just think the Hamilton/Rosberg whinging, has been particularly extreme at points. I used to remember wishing they'd stop broadcasting Hamilton's team radio on some races, at it was just cringe. And moany Rosberg in drivers press conference after the race, was often difficult to listen to!
Possibly because they do both have a real opportunity to win, rather than there being a solid no.2 position (and I know people will say Rosberg is that no.2 :D ).
Something is going wrong, if that car doesn't win.
 
Some great driving/overtakes through out the field.
Some abysmal driving
Insane penalties that spoil the racing.
Commentator along side DC is utter ****

Rosberg on Channel 4 highlights saying he is enjoying a straight fight with Lewis.

And that's why people hate him - no concept of sportsmanship or humility, he just wants to win any way he can and would happily take the championship if he was the only car to finish every race and claim he was the greatest driver ever.

It's the same distasteful person we saw punching the air and jumping for joy after last year's Monaco GP, when he was handed the race by a team mistake. Sure, not his fault the team screwed up but a little humility and recognition of the fact he didn't earn the win would go a long way to ingratiating himself with fans.
 
Agree'd can't wait to see the "slapped in the face what more can I do Lewis is out partying and I still loose face" back on Rosberg again, soon. He's an average driver in a amazing car. Give Lewis the same standard car and he doesn't stand a chance, problem is Rosberg is quick forgetting this.
Really feeling for Lewis and Vettel this season, never used to like Vettel but he's leaps on bounds on Rosberg. Would love to see Vettel put Rosbery in 3rd this season, doubtful it'll happen now.

Trust me I'm a Hammy fan. I just think his attitude stinks sometimes. It's petulant, childish and does nothing to endear others to him. It's the one thing about him I don't like.

Reminds me of Kevin the teenager :D

I'm a Hamilton fan, and this is accurate.

Rosbergs claims . . well I dont really blame him for saying it, even if I dont agree with it. He's done nothing wrong and is getting booed, it would wind me up too.

I disagree, in all the other races it's been very chatty. Lewis never speaks to him and Kimi doesn't speak to anyone. What I read, Will Buxton's article, he's quite liked in the paddock unlike Lewis who isolates himself most of the time.



Agreed. Not spraying his champagne was very petty.

I thought he did not celebrate as a mark of respect to Senna. We all know how fond he was of him and how he was his idol so imo even though he hasn't mentioned why he didn't spray the champagne I can only assume that was the reason.
