Oh dear how despondant is that man sounding? Seems nothing is going his way this season and the interviewers keep battering him with questions. Is he really driving his car to the limit?

I think Lewis has been doing a fantastic job this year. The best thing you can do is compare a driver to their team mate and Lewis is hands down the better performer on track (bar China of course). The car is off the pace, everyone knows it is a well balanced car but its lack of down force is shocking. But look at the results he has pulled off, and taking the goings on in Oz into consideration, Lewis has been a class act. The reason he is so....down, is because he has only ever had a winning package underneath him, from FRenault to F3 and GP2 and of course F1, he has had one of the best cars. Now he doesn't so its an unnatural and unfamiliar environment for him to be in.
He needs to go through this process to grow as a driver and develop his skills. Tough times only make you stronger.

from itv sport Lewis Hamilton has admitted he has grown tired and disillusioned of Formula 1’s constant political disputes – conceding he now enjoys the sport far less than when he made his debut two years ago.
While the British ace enjoyed unparalleled success during his first two campaigns – culminating in becoming the youngest ever champion last year – he and his McLaren team were caught in the middle of several high-profile political storms and controversies, including the long-running ‘spygate’ saga.
Then at the start of this season Hamilton was involved in another huge controversy when he and McLaren’s former sporting director were caught lying to race stewards – the team’s early season woes compounded by the fact its car is well off front-running pace and unlikely to get into title contention.
And while again acknowledging his fault in the lying scandal – for which he was forced to make a contrite public apology – overall he says he has been left exasperated by the sport’s constant political wranglings, likening his own troubles to wrongful imprisonment.
“I just feel knocked about by it all,” he confessed in a candid interview with The Times newspaper.
