I write a few stupid lines here about things that have been bothering me for a long time.
My life is plagued by people where only a few words or one action is enough to dislike or hate them. Believe me that some of these people did enough to make me angry, best if they didn't think about their actions for a second.
In such cases I am usually happy to have something like video games, television (almost not anymore) or internet. A big focus was on racing games like Formula 1, which I actively watched from 2010 to 2013, and I had a driver there who I consider my idol, Sebastian Vettel. I guess everyone of us knows something like that. But then in 2014 you experience the fall of your idol and I stopped watching Formula 1, but I still played the old video games.
My return to Formula One was also only through the video game F1 2017, but this happened in 2018 and when my interest was reawakened I watched the 6th race of the year, the Monaco Grand Prix. I was also surprised at what happened to teams like Toro Rosso and I became more interested in their junior, Pierre Gasly.
That's so far what you need to know, I'm actually aiming at something else.
The World Champion was from 2014 Lewis Hamilton (except 2016), I didn't like him as Seb's rival anyway, but it didn't matter because Button was skilled and beat him in 2011.
Hamilton is the most lucky driver in Formula 1, he was lucky in the last race in 2008 when Timo Glock had problems keeping the car on track. 2013 he was lucky that Niki Lauda chose him for the Mercedes cockpit. It doesn't take much to beat his teammate, just that it was easy for him. He is also the one who has always driven with competitive Mercedes engines. But Mercedes didn't have to give Lewis the seat either, because Rosberg was able to drive close to Lewis.
Meanwhile Hamilton is unrivalled, Bottas is not able to keep his pace.
But what I have listed up to here is not the reason why I hate him.
The tactical games he plays over and over again. For example: telling over the radio that he has a problem and then at the same time he turns the fastest round. Constantly saying that the safety car is going too slow, only to go too slow at restart, and then other people take the wing off, and his famous useless steering wheel trick, which I didn't even notice until someone said that.
He also interferes in the affairs of other teams. To explain, Red Bull swapped Gasly last year with the junior Albon who had driven 12 races in Formula 1, which seemed stupid to many (and later was) because Kyvat was better than Albon. Then one year later after Gasly's 2nd place in Brazil and 1st place in Monza. Said Hamilton to Red Bulls Hellmut Marko they should exchange Albon for Gasly. Sounds not bad at first, doesn't it? Then Marko said in public that Hamilton said the same thing a year ago, only that Gasly should be replaced. I don't know how much Red Bull listened to him, in fact they did.
How shitty it must be if your career depends on a driver who can't be involved in the thing. By the way, Hamilton shot Albon twice where he had a chance for a podium, his only chance until Mugello
But I am not interested in racism here either, that is bullshit anyway. It also has its sense as he actively fights against it and I have nothing against it, but I find him characterwise unsympathetic and meanwhile not changeable.
But everybody has his own opinion about it, and I don't want to change yours. I just want to get rid of something to finally get it off my soul, since there is no end in view for him anyway.
I know this has nothing to do with art and I hope for your understanding.
