Hamilton getting too big headed
Discussion
Regardless of whats made up or not, will never forgive Hamilton referring to the rest of the grid as Monkeys. And that was Monaco; very early in the season. Backing up to the original topic, with Saturdays antics, he's getting more big headed.
Fact Im a Ferrari fan has nothing to do with above views.

Arrghhhh, we do not say what he also said and in what context/how he said it, the media have a habit of picking quotes out at random and I really do not see it as a Hamilton comment unless it was in a joking manner which we should all be able to see for sure.Fact Im a Ferrari fan has nothing to do with above views.

According to McLaren Hamilton never said what the media have been saying he said. Which makes sense because the radio transmissions are endcoded aren't they. How would some British hack know what was said so quickly after the race. And now the official stewards have heard the transmissions when investigating the pitstop thing themselves McLaren would look silly if they say he didn't and people outside the team know they did and can say, "ah but he did" which they won't if he didn't.

McLaren deny Hamilton used curse words
McLaren have denied Lewis Hamilton had used curse words during a radio conversation with team boss Ron Dennis in qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix.
British newspapers reported after the Saturday's infamous incident that Hamilton had had a heated discussion with Dennis after the Briton had been held up during qualifying and so had missed the chance to complete a final flying lap.
As reported by autosport.com in this week's journal, however, McLaren said on Thursday that those stories were not true, and that Hamilton had never used the "F word" when talking to Dennis.
"Over the last few days there has been some inaccurate and misleading reporting of certain events which transpired during the qualification for the Hungarian Grand Prix," the team said in a statement.
"Whilst the team would normally not comment on such speculation, Lewis has asked us to correct one important matter of untrue critical commentary. It has been reported that Lewis used the "F word" to Ron Dennis over the team radio immediately after the qualification session had been completed.
"The team have investigated this claim and reviewed the radio transmissions and we can categorically confirm that Lewis did not use the "F word" at any time during any conversation with the team.
"The team and Lewis are extremely disappointed that the use of the "F word" appears to have been invented and repeated to the media."

Hamilton was asked about the necessity of a good grid slot (Monaco) and he replied that it was important to be infront of all the other monkeys.
I suspect hes had several helmet changes since, as his heads increased in size.
Come off it , its just a piss taking term , i use it to my co workers without any offence being taken I suspect hes had several helmet changes since, as his heads increased in size.

I watched the interview when Hamilton made that comment. It was in a joking manner and FWIW did not refer to entire grid behind him (I took it as the mid-field; you know, where all the first lap accidents are
)This comment has been taken out of context by so many people. Most of whom have blatantly seized upon it as they never liked him anyway. I know it was'nt the wisest choice of words but I'm so sick of hearing people use it as proof that his ego is out of control - what about how Alonso has been throwing his toys out the pram all season FFS?!
IMHO Hamilton is the best thing to happen to F1 in years.

Ron would luuuuvvv to have them as they work so well. But alas he can't. Cause
Ron would get bounced out of F1 for a couple of seasons.
Be interesting to see if wonderboy wants to race for uncle Ron as much as he used to under those circumstances.
Cmon Ron, I dare you to half inch the wheel covers into a black and silver existance...See how fast the FIA kick yer butt back to Woking.
So there you have it; blue flags are waving Lewis, couple of frizbees: best things in F1.

Why would Ron be bounced out of F1 if Maclaren used wheel covers? How has that got anything to do with Hamilton driving for Maclaren or not?

No, but the FIA would see it as an excuse to open an industrial sized can of Banningyoufromthechampionship on the basis that they are using Ferrari information.Why would Ron be bounced out of F1 if Maclaren used wheel covers?

Personally, i think wheel covers should be banned on the grounds that they look utterly shite.
And please, stop refering to Ron Dennis as Uncle Ron: first of all, he's not Lewis' uncle; secondly, it's creepy.

Of course he's not Ron's nephew. He's Jean Todt's nephew and has been placed into the McLaren team to spy on them, and slip Ferrari documents into the hands of McLaren team bosses. After a season of single handedly destroying the team he will go to Ferrari for 35 million US dollars to replace Massa who will become the wash-up boy.And Hamilton and Alonso were only at each others throats in Hungary because they are gay lovers and had had a lovers tiff the night before about what restaurant to eat in, apparently Hamilton isn't a fan of tapas so Alonso stormed off to spend the rest of the night tensing in the mirror. Then when Hamilton had came back to the hotel room after a night of hanging with his rap star buddies he found Alonso in bed with his 2 World Championship trophies with a note telling him he could sleep on the sofa.
I should write for the sun
ETA: MrKipling43 didn't write that entirely pointless post, I did. Something is going funny with the quotes. And MrKipling wrote what apparently Baldylocks wrote. I think. What is going on
