It's no secret on Merb that I have been saying for years that Hamilton is the biggest asshole in F1 off the track and on the track...He's plain and simple a selfish pompous brat!...And its great to hear that F1 great and his boss Niky Lauda at Mercedes concurs with such a statement! Someone has to take-out this punk before he kills someone on the track! This is not Nintendo or PlayStation!

Question for you guys:
I read that Hamilton in 2007 received a speeding ticket and was suspended from racing in France after being caught traveling 122 mph /196 kph on a French highway while driving his Mercedes Benz CLK. It's not exactly the first time a professional race car driver got a speeding ticket- I recall a few of the big NASCAR drivers getting similar tickets.
I am wondering if his attorney could have, or did make the argument that the speed he was caught traveling at was actually a slow speed by F1 standards and that due to his profession he can actually travel quite safely in a passenger vehicle on a highway at such speed without causing any issues. I think one of the NASCAR guys who was actually ticketed on a country road and not a highway made a similar argument. How would this fly with prosecutors in Montreal if Hamilton is ticketed going 196 kph on Route 15 south going to I-87 in his Mercedes Benz CLK? There isn't much traffic on that road and probably even during F1 weekend it won't be bad until the end of that weekend. How does this argument fly with a Montreal prosecutor?
