This is why F1 is almost totally irrelevant in the USA. The watch company is named after the founder of the City of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, who lived in the early 1700’s. Lewis Hamilton might be Canadian by birth, but he should know better.
Lol I didn't even know this was a thing. Every time I manage to come around to the idea of liking Lewis Hamilton, I see something the reminds me, oh yeah...nah.
Perhaps Lewis Hamilton should consider a name change. Lewis Hamilton was born in the UK, even more reason he should know better. I don't follow Formula One racing, but, I am aware of Hamilton's success in the sport. He has his share of haters, and this lawsuit isn't going to win over many. The man has to find some way to spend an annual salary of 40 million pounds, why not sue a company that has been around long before you were born. https://www.essentiallysports.com/why-do-people-hate-lewis-hamilton/
I think Gator was just joking but he is right about F1 being a yawn fest here in the USA. I mean who wants to listen to a bunch of go carts that sound like honey bees going by? Us Americans prefer the thunderous roar of V8s
I was shocked when I saw the annual salaries of the top drivers in F1 racing... who knew? Top Nascar driver makes around 17 million. RaceFans’ 2020 Formula 1 driver salary estimates Team Driver Salary* (US) Mercedes Lewis Hamilton $40m Mercedes Valtteri Bottas $8m Ferrari Sebastian Vettel $30m Ferrari Charles Leclerc $10m Red Bull Max Verstappen $25m Red Bull Alexander Albon $2.5m McLaren Carlos Sainz $8m McLaren Lando Norris $2m Renault Esteban Ocon $5m Renault Daniel Ricciardo $20m AlphaTauri Daniil Kvyat $2m AlphaTauri Pierre Gasly $2m Racing Point Sergio Perez $8m Racing Point Lance Stroll $3m Alfa Romeo Kimi Räikkönen $5m Alfa Romeo Antonio Giovanazzi $1m Haas Romain Grosjean $7m Haas Kevin Magnussen $5m Williams Nicolas Latifi $1m Williams George Russell $1m Not
You're probably right but she is one of those roundy-round circle-jerk NASCAR drivers. Those things might be V8s but they only count a notch or two above those wine and cheese European F1 jobbies. Any race engine that is capable of running for hours on end ain't makin REAL power. I only like full-tilt drag racing V8s. You know...the kind of radical stuff that can only be run for a few seconds at a time and make so much power it might kick a rod while idling
I really did think he was Canadian. Shows you how much I know or care. However, @janice&fred is correct. Anyway, the owner of Miami Dolphins is trying to bring an F1 race to our area. We already have a very nice NASCAR track here. I see no need for inconveniencing the local populace in order to make billionaires richer. Keep it in Europe folks. gatorcpa PS - Here's a Hamilton that predates Lewis by about 55 years:
As a Hamilton (watch) fan, I am flattered. I say any media attention is good marketing, although glad he got spanked. This thread needs more watch photos
Hamilton vs Hamilton vs Hamilton vs Hamilton: legit bragging rights to those who can name them all...
Last one is Donald. Second one is Alexander. First one is "looks familar." Third one is someone named Hamilton. Not too good.
