Why shouldn't he enjoy himself a little and show that there's a bit more to him than just a race car driver.



I'm his age and think the whole thing is utterly hilarious, girl. It obviously wasn't because he's black, it's because he's a bit of a tool (baby, oh yeah Girl).

Maybe it is just me but Lewis looked a little bit uncomfortable in this picture: http://www.gq.com/style/wear-it-now/201201/spring-layering-lewis-hamilton-gq-january-2012#slide=5

And a bit silly in others. I don't really think he looked cool or like he was having fun sending himself up though I may be wrong.

It looks to me like he's having some very bad advice (might make a few quid I guess).

But the difference between Lewis and Jenson is that Jenson's (frankly ridiculous) Head & Shoulders commercial didn't impact his racing whereas Lewis seems to have let the media side of his life have a very negative impact on the racing side.

Had I been him, I would have wanted a more serious article about the work I was going to do to try and reclaim top-dog position at Mclaren and win the WDC!

What a twonk, mind you looking at the cost of the jeans no wonder he can't afford socks.

Hate to spoil the supercilious street cred, but wearing multiple layers of jackets has been de rigeure amongst the homeless for decades.

Puts me in mind of the Russian tennis player who seemed to use tennis as a springboard for her modelling career.

Perhaps Lewis should take time out to think on whether his hero Senna would have p*ssed away his talent as Lewis seems intent on doing.

There are some downright hilarious photoshops kicking about the internetz. Some have been tweeted/twatted(?) to Lewis himself. Can't help but laugh.

Interesting thing is that most Sportsmen could get away with it. Footballers? Whatever.

F1 fans expect a bit more class. Unreasonable?
