Thoughts on Hamilton’s behavior? Will he actually retire?

I’m a Max fan but the last race actually made my respect for Lewis increase leaps and bounds. Instead of doing his typical “that’s dangerous driving man” over the radio he graciously accepted what is a controversial call, gave a defeat speech that can’t have been easy to muster, had Toto kill the protest and let the sport move on.

If I were the guy I’d be so pissed that I wouldn’t go to the events because I’d say something stupid. He put his head down and moved out of the spotlight to take time for himself. Good for him and yes we will see a title fight next year from Lewis :)

My guess is Lewis is either sleeping until noon and day drinking or intensely focused on the upcoming season. He’ll know it wasn’t just Masi’s call that cost him that title. It was blown strategy calls. It was every race that he didn’t finish one spot higher.

The guy handled the immediate post race period with extreme grace. And he asked Merc to stop their protest.

Like many of us, the guy is probably tired and needed a break. I’m fine with him doing what he needs to do.

Damned if you do, and damned if you don’t… Keeping aside our allegiances — and as a true fan of the sport, can you not understand his reaction or lack there off? If you were in his position, wouldn’t you be disillusioned with F1 too?

I love how the media speculating and making a big deal out of lewis being silent is somehow “his behavior” being an issue. What’s the last you saw of lewis leading up to your post? Congratulating Max for his win immediately after having it stolen from him (and I am not a Lewis fan). His behavior has been class act. He doesn’t have to respond to the nonsense of the clickbait rumor mill.

like

He thinks he’s bigger than F1. He isn’t.

Last year he had multiple very convenient safety cars that gave him a free stop, or had lucky moments where race control helped him get back to the front of the field e.g. Imola. They also helped by not DSQing him from Silverstone on the spot. He should just stop complaining

like

He IS bigger than F1 though, same as Schumacher. Him walking away after Abu Dhabi would drive a lot of people away from F1 and I feel like this isn’t addressed as often as it should be.

like

What is he doing specifically? Other than not posting on socials? I don’t think he’ll retire but won’t be shocked if he does but what behavior do you speak of?

like

He basically got cheated (or whatever you call it) out of winning the WDC. As a fan of him and the sport it still hurts so I don’t blame him. I think he’s entitled to do whatever he wants on that front

I doubt that he retires, and this is just mostly to put pressure on the FIA. He lost in a very controversial way and he handled after the race pretty well and congratulated max. He probably needs some time to detox from social media and formula 1 because it probably gets pretty crazy at times. He’s in a lose lose situation because if he speaks up, he’ll get criticized and everyone will just say he’s whining and a sore loser

like

If the car is in a good spot and he sees #8 as a strong possibility, can’t see him not coming back

like

This is what I was thinking too. If he decides not to return, I'd read into it that Merc doesn't have a strong car going into the new regs.

I’m a big Lewis fan but not gonna lie I was kind of disappointed when he unfollowed everyone on instagram and I consider it to be very childish behavior. Moreover, I think it’s disrespectful to Max as he did nothing wrong and deserved equally to win the title.

He started by unfollowing FIA and F1 official instagram accounts and then unfollowed everyone including Mercedes F1 official account.

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
