If Hamilton in fact made these remarks, his comments betray a horrible lack of respect for one of the sport's icons. Even in F1, one can have talent but no class.

Of course. But I would be more likely to say "Especially in F1" rather than "Even in F1". The whole series is full of rich and arrogant jerks.

It's an odd thing that in this forum, calling the guy who is leading the F1 championship a great driver gets labelled "fanboy". WTF? If I say Jimmy Johnson is a great driver, does that make me a fanboy for him too?
OK then, LH is better than Senna and you are not his fan, you win

Senna drove when you had to have bigger balls. How many crashes did Kimi and others today walk away from that might have ended a season or career back then? How many safety changes were made to tracks today? So it is just silly to compare drivers from different eras, at least in terms of who is better. I throw the "dumb-@ss silly" flag at Lewis for saying that.

However... I've got a buck that says Lewis outdrives anyone on today's grid but Alonso in equal formula cars. Last year would you have said Felipe drives faster than Kimi? (not me!) We'll never know unless team members swap a few more times. But Lewis is contending to be world champion. You can't take that away from him. I'm still cheering for him.

Go Lewis!

WOw, just WOW, what an INCREDIBLE day on F1 ... I am absolutely delighted by Massa wrong but justified move on LH, he was penalized as it should but after a crazy week where when even Senna (RIP) was used in some stupid commentaries by a talented driver that has too much attitude and poor maturity/judgment ... what happened today was pretty much a PAY BACK to Ham for all the BULLIE "gran-turismo5 online" attitude ... guess what Ham, it's time to grow the f***k up but thanks for bringing some laughs to our life's .. and Massa, thanks for been man enough to show that clown -ham- that if he wants to play hard, you can also do it (... remember Ham idiotic Pit error while the light was red/ he had 2 F1 cars to crash and he targeted specifically Kimi's car? ... remember so many times "Ham" put Massa on the Grass? ..... even last night, remember Mr. Ham pretty much almost putting 2 ferraris out of the race? ----on the first turn?)

Nice Massa, now we are talking here!
Nice Senna for taking Massa body for a second
