Well, that's his driving, that's all. That is how he drives. If you don't have the balls to brake late then that is your problem!

Apologies if this is in another thread, CBA to sift through all of that, but this interview made me smile!

That's probably gonna come back and bite him, like the "i'm not getting overtaken on the outside again after Hungary" line.

seems pretty inpartial to me?!?!
he was braking later than Kimi? unless i missed something.
he's a confident talented man.
no more arrogant than all the best (Alonso, Schumi, Senna etc)

Hamilton: "It is so difficult to overtake in F1 as it is, and when it does happen people get very excited. The fact is that I can overtake in F1. I have shown it can be done, and I don't think I am in a position to say if it is going to ruin F1."

I bet Button overtook more people (not backmarkers) than Hamilton last year.
But then Button is a monkey isn't he?

Not quite the same as 'I invented overtaking and no one else does it' though, is it?

Yeah, like the time he took the P1ss out of his dad for crashing the porsche - the very next race he slammed into a stationary Kimi in the pit lane.

It's refreshing when you hear a driver speaking his mind rather than the obligatory "for sure the team is strategic for sure... yawn". He has a lot of respect for his competitors but at the same time he knows that he has to play a few mind games to make them feel on the back foot.

He wants Kimi to hear that, in the hope that Kimi might momentarily hesitate on approaching the next wet corner. It's all part of the fun, and he seems to enjoy doing it.

Wrong again. I'm actually a fan of F1 and Mansell.

The prosecution rests.
