Probably.

Just tired of all the racists that have appeared in the Zone. I wish they would go back to the NBA forum where they belong.

Racists make this world unique and diverse. We can't be prejudiced against racists. They are people with feelings.

Your thoughts on Lewis Hamilton...

My family knew him when he was very young and used to go karting at my Grandads track so I am biased....

I used to like him a lot, we followed him all the way through his lower formulas like Formula 3 and GP2. I am not as sure anymore because of some of his actions.... I will always support him over most though.

However, I am a fan of Endurance racing more than anything else. I watch F1 but I don't have an emotional interest anymore. Not since the new rule changes which spoilt the action for me.

I watch the ALMS, LMS, ILMC/WEC and Blancpain Endurence series over most things...

The trouble is, he used to be more focused... You can see this in his driving styles. When he entered in 2007, he would make the most ridiculous dummy moves, dive in and just stun everyone. Then he would always get away with it, now he dives up the inside and hits them. He needs to have more clean races...

Meaning he creates enemies and gets more frustrated. When he was in F3 he was more like this, then he matured when he entered GP2... it may change again, and I hope it does because I find myself rolling my else and muttering "oh, Lewis" too many times during the season.

This is true. I think he is on the way back.

The media has taken a dump on him and he seems to be trying to get his family back at the races instead of rappers. I think leaving his fathers management was a poor decision and going to the one he is with now was an even worse one. He should have signed with Willi Weber, he did wonders for Michael Schumacher and even managed to get Ralf handsome amounts of money over his career.

Also, I think it is important to look at the equipment from 2007 vs. 2011. His early cars were near the class of the field. Recently he hasn't had a car which wasn't the best and he had to push very hard to get results. Take 2009 Monza for example. He was pushing very hard and he drove beyond the equipment and payed the price for it. Also at the 2011 Monaco GP, I think he got a bum deal on some of those passes. Guys weren't looking in their mirrors combined with a bit too much enthusiasm from Lewis.

I hope both McLaren and Lewis return to championship form this season.
