Re: Lewis Hamilton 2013 Contract Thread.
Who cares if Merc is German or British really? And what, pray, has it got to do with Hamilton signing up for them or not? :thumbup:Hence my original comment on the subject. Quite obviously Merc being British or German does not make any difference on track but a lot of people who follow the sport se...

Re: Why its Hamilton vs. Alonso vs. Vettel for 2012 WDC!
I believe its Hamilton, Alonso, Vettel for the title and Kimi is the long shot I feel Kimi is the long shot, despite being second in the championship, purely because the car is jack of all trades and master on none. He will score high and consistently but the win needed to catch Alonso will elude hi...
