[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1079741, member: 56232"] This is the one that always baffled me, how Alonso is a great but Hamilton is only good because of the car. Hamilton beats Alonso in the same car and that accounts for nothing? I find with Hamilton in particular people tend to tie themselves in knots and perform some of the most incredible mental gymnastics to denigrate what he has achieved. I don't think any other driver has had their achievements dismissed as readily as Hamilton. The fact a multiple world record holder doesn't even enter into contention for some people is staggering. I can't think of a single other person with as many achievements in their sport who is so readily dismissed. I'm not even a Hamilton fan (been McLaren since I started watching in the late 90's and Hakkinen was my driver) but can still see the ridiculous treatment he gets from certain fans. [/QUOTE]
