I just saw this, the family has every right to keep his status to themselves, but it’s still nice to see that he’s capable of signing a helmet at this stage. Hopefully he gets to keep improving slowly with time and enjoy his retirement with his family.


A very nice gesture for a very worthy cause.

Reporting suggests that Michael’s wife Corrina helped him sign the helmet. Even so, it does provide some hope that MSC is cognizant and able to enjoy his time with friends and family.

Always been a fan of the Seiko F1 series Sporturas, just scored this one as a full kit in mint condition.

Thanks SB.

That kinda looks like they went to a salvage yard for the engine cover.

"We found one! It's the wrong color, but we'll paint it later."

HP finally turned comments back on. I want to get a 1/18 scale Lewis Hamilton Ferrari model when he gets his first win. I'm really hoping his first Ferrari win isn't in Miami.

See the Ferrari on track... looks sofa king terrible. Whoever approved that livery needs to be fired.

I won’t spoil the result for any that didn’t see it yet but damn, Lewis is already at his breaking point with Ferrari at this point. It took Seb and Fernando years to reach this level of frustration with Ferrari.

Only reason Carlos got close to Lewis was because of all the tears in his eyes.

Ferrari strategy never disappoints! Seb and Fernando got a competitive car their first year. The current Ferrari is garbage.

That was some great racing between Max and the McLarens.

Never been a Ham fan. Even less of one after today.

the banter over the radio was humorous and entertaining. Lewis had some good zingers.

All said, Ferrari is having a tough time keeping up with the top teams and are contending with the likes of Williams. Upgrades can’t come fast enough.

But Lewis and Ferrari were supposed to be sympatico, Ferrari was going to tailor the car to suit Lewis' driving style, blah, blah, blah. Lewis was going straight to the podium! The hard truth is Hamilton is a spent force at age 40, just like Alonso. F1 is a young man's game, look at who is winning races now, the kiddies. Lewis moved for ego and money, fine, but who knows what Ferrari was thinking. They had very good team of Leclerc and Sainz and threw it away, but as you said, Ferrari never disappoints.
