Ele de novo!

Hamilton admits 'mishandling' Alonso

Lewis Hamilton feels in retrospect that he could have managed his relationship with Fernando Alonso better when they were team-mates at McLaren in 2007.

But the Briton remains adamant that he has never enjoyed any special treatment from his team, and that McLaren did its utmost to give both its drivers equal support.

Hamilton and Alonso's partnership famously collapsed in rancour as the 2007 season progressed, and the Spaniard parted company with McLaren to return to Renault at the end of the year.

Although Hamilton now admits that he 'misunderstood' the situation within the team, he remains sceptical about Alonso's inference that McLaren prioritised Hamilton because of its long relationship with him.

"At the beginning of my first year I was up alongside the two-time world champion and he was seen as the guy to win the world championship and I think at the time I misinterpreted and misunderstood the goals and the understanding of how the team worked," Hamilton told the BBC.

"But since I've been here they do everything to give us individually the best package possible. I've never had more than the guy next to me, we've always had equal opportunity, which is the greatest thing in a team.

"It's not easy to manage that, because one guy can be ahead of the other.

"Inevitably people say things sometimes when they haven't done so well. You say things out of anger; you say things that you potentially don't mean. That's how I see it from the others."

Hamilton reiterated his confidence that there will be no problems between him and new team-mate Jenson Button at McLaren this season.

"It's different," said Hamilton. "We've learnt from experiences. We understand each other very well."

Senhor! Meu pai... juro que isso só pode ser doença! Não tem explicação para esta mania doentia que Lewis tem de citar, falar, comentar sobre Alonso. Ou então é paixão enrustida derivada de algo não correspondido, tipo amor platônico, sabe?! Humpf! hehe

Lewis deveria fazer como Alonso, que mal lembra dele... Hamilton gasta tempo demais falando no espanhol! Não seria melhor ele guardar energias para o início da temporada!??rs

Até eu estou aderindo esta prática do Alonso para com a pessoa de Lewis Hamilton... já repararam!??? rs
O problema é que em momentos como este é impossível resistir a tentação de chamar o Lewis de .... de.... melhor deixar para lá! Deixo para a imaginação de cada um... hahahaha

Sabia que às vezes nem dá para culpar Lewis por ser assim e por não ter sabido "lidar" com Alonso?! Afinal, sendo filho de quem é e patrocinado por Ron Dennis desde os 10 anos... só poderia ter dado nisso mesmo!

Bjinhos, Tati
