Lewis so down to earth.
That's why most of us liked him.
His performance were pretty good.

Erm.. i kind of agree with you. But i would break up his sentence into 2 parts. First is the front where he said that he is where he is at now. The place he is in now is what he have expected. I wont defy what he said was true because i couldnt read his mind, whether he have already expected that he will perform badly in Montreal.

But i am just wondering, would a person expect that he would end up 7th after qualifying for a 2nd place? After having a good start in F1? Would he have even predicted that he would end up tailing 8 championship points behind?

It was his mistake that he lawn mow that area, his aggressiveness, and now he is saying this is expected. If i were to say, it might just be a lie.

Edited: Maybe i think too much, and sad my english aint that good, so if you will excuse me

hungarian?i tot that time he still used wet tyre although rain stop dy....

Grow up?
Ouch! 

Lewis Hamilton believes that his relationship with Fernando Alonso is becoming "closer and closer" as F1 braces itself for a team-mate rivalry as intense as the legendary battles between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost.


For the first time since Hamilton's debut in March, the two McLarens fought side-by-side in Indianapolis with the young Briton refusing to buckle as the double World Champion edged alongside him. Alonso is a notoriously sore loser, yet the Spaniard was graceful in defeat in America, just as Hamilton was magnanimous. For now at least, mutual respect and conviviality, rather than the bitterness that characterised the battles between Prost and Senna, reigns in the McLaren garage.


"Fernando is extremely fair, especially at the start of the race and done a fantastic job, so well done to him," said Hamilton. "As you can see, we're extremely close. But we're very, very close on the track and I think we are getting closer and closer off track, you know. And our respect for each other I think is growing and it's great. We're really happy for the team. But once again, I'm just proud and honored to be sitting next to him as I've always looked up to him for the last few years."


Alonso caused a considerable stir last week when he announced that he had not felt "comfortable" at McLaren since joining the team after securing his second title with Renault in October. The Spaniard's post-race comments at Indianapolis were circumspect in comparison, yet while he agreed with his team-mate that they had been "extremely close", he refused to acknowledge any shortcoming.


"I really think I was a little bit quicker in the race because when you follow a car in one second distance, something like that, means that you are a bit quicker because to follow that close is not easy," he said.


Nor, despite trailing Hamilton by ten points, was Alonso prepared to accept diminished status. "I think it has been a surprise for me, and a surprise for everybody, to see him doing so well and leading the Championship at this point. But, you know, I have big confidence," he assured reporters. "We have only done seven races, ten to go. So I'm very happy with my 48 points and the championship will be decided at the end. Again, I have confidence that I can do it."


For the time being at least, the pair share data and telemetry, and hold their debriefings at the same table inside the McLaren citadel. But if, as the season progresses, the two McLaren drivers remain locked in a fight for the World Championship, the cordiality between them will be put to the most severe test.


Rumours abounded in America that Alonso had revealed his 'discomfort' at McLaren in order to gain a greater say in strategy. Pointedly, when asked to comment on the team's tactics for qualifying, Alonso invited his interrogator to question his team boss instead.


Hamilton's emergence has been the stuff of fairytales, but Alonso will have no compunction in assuming the role of the Bad Guy if it produces a third successive title.

Kimi Raikkonen could be on his way out of Ferrari as soon as the end of this season, according to reports.
Germany's Auto-Bild-Motorsport said the beleaguered Maranello team are already on the lookout for the Finn's successor, after his poor start to the season and failure to live up to his billing as the highest earning F1 racer following his switch from McLaren for 2007.
Not only is the 27-year-old struggling to keep up with Felipe Massa in the other F2007, but there are also concerns about his supposed rookie errors and lack of focus.
Part of the Auto-Bild-Motorsport rumour is that newly retired Michael Schumacher will make his return to F1 in place of Raikkonen, but McLaren's unsettled Fernando Alonso or Williams' highly-rated Nico Rosberg are also rumoured to be in the running to replace the Finn.
