I officially don't like Lewis Hamilton

From today's ESPN F1:
"Hamilton said he has a degree of loyalty to McLaren but that ultimately he would make a decision based on maximising his chances of success.
"There are lots of things to take into account. These people have supported me; these are the people that got me into Formula One. But, you know, I want to win. I'm not that young any more so I want to make sure that whatever I do I make the right decision so I can maximize my career, you know. I just need to make sure that I'm winning. That's what I exist for, that's what I train and work for every day."
You WOULDN'T
HAVE AN F1 CAREER if it weren't for McLaren, Lewis.
You want to win? Stop driving like an idiot. I will give him this: it's unreal how many bad pit stops he's been given...maybe the crew just isn't motivated, given this attitude he's showing in the interview that the above is from:

He still hasn't sunk to the depths of J.P. Montoya, a.k.a., The Whiner, but he's getting there.

I don't think he is going anywhere. Webber signed for 2013, Alonso doesn't want him at Ferrari, any other team will be a step down.

Stop defending him just because he's English.

Actually, I tend to agree with you. I'm not a big fan.
Go Jensen!

I never like him from the first day he started racing in F1. He maybe a talented driver, but his arrogant attitude made him look like a total ass!!! My wife and I always jump out of our chairs cheering and laughing whenever he crashes!!!

You have to be arrogant to be a top driver in F1. Schumaker, Senna, Prost, Mansell, etc. Assholes every one. Its all about results in F1. If you want to win, you have to put feelings aside and get the job done. McClaren has been screwing up big time with both Hamilton and Button. I don't blame Lewis for wanting to go to a team that can do a pit stop in under 15 seconds.

+1, Alonso and Raikonnen as well. If Redbull starts dropping cars off the jack and cross threading wheel lugs, Vettel won't be so happy either? Just look at his reaction after the car failed at Valencia?

Isn't arrogant what most the press reports say is interesting about this 50 shades of grey phenom? Maybe he follows after Mosely.
