A touch of the 5 year olds ...
Lewis Hamilton ?@LewisHamilton
Just noticed @jensonbutton unfollowed, thats a shame. After 3 years as
teammates, I thought we respected one another but clearly he doesn't.

get to see all our engineering data first hand. see he's following Sergio
Perez now :)
if thats the kind of ego Jensons had to put up with for 3 years surprised he
didnt do it sooner, is Lewis like the KP of the F1 world or something.

out his setup for the next race than taking care who is following him on
Twatter or not. In my view, the celebrity part of Lewis is hurting the
racer Lewis a lot.

Yes, that too, certainly. But it's not about the last race or this

season only. IMHO: it's a general mind set thing with Lewis. And ominous
Twatter posts are only manifestations of his mind set.

engineers are not getting the setup right. And this is - at least to
some extent - his (not) doing (it right). Especially in races where
Button gets it right and Lewis - acknowledged by anyone and their dogs
as the faster of the two - is not.
Don't get me wrong: for me, although I don't see him as the most
complete racer of his generation, Lewis is a natural, a racers racer and
still the fastest guy on the gird. But it appears to me that his
perception of himself as a "pop star/celebrity" is sometimes fogging his
mind.

Course I could be wrong.
