Read this yesterday - reminded me of Brundle's anecdote of when Schumacher had a big off in practice for the '91 Japanese GP then went out and did his fastest time of the weekend. Don't know the full circumstances on this occasion but hoping it's a similar story.

Have a feeling this kid is the real deal, anyone watching the GP2 at Silverstone when he overtook 3 cars at 180mph should know this, move over Button :-), he also pulled a lethal and stunning overtake under bridge *was stood 10 feet away* magic.

Reading his story Lewis is a top chap! the part regarding his brother is very touching, what a nice man.

A class guy.
After he had crashed his car a week ago, he went in to the factory to apologise to the team.

With Rosberg Jnr in the fold, F1 could actually get interesting again - who would've thought!

You went all the way back through your posts to retrieve this?

Surely a more impressive retrieval would be the betting slip showing you put your life savings on LH to be the "real deal"?

Or didn't you do that?

He did but they were in Icesave and the value dropped to 43p by the time the win came through.

I'm sure he'll be off to William Hill shortly to put his winnings on Lewis claiming two of the next three titles as well, and thereby truly being worthy of "the next Senna" moniker.

Not sure I understand your analogy FWD.

Either way, it's a crying shame such foresight is wasted.

That is not a comparison that should be perpetuated IMO.
