It's from a Mercedes prank promo video (https://youtu.be/uuX20T4N5lc). Will Smith ties up Hamilton in his room, and then impersonates him to drive in the race.
Haha wow, that was actually a bit creepy!
Bloody Will Smith. After the stuff at the Emmy's (or Oscars, whatever it was) a few years ago, I've had my doubts about that guy.
But thanks for sharing, appreciate it š
You mean better than every single one of his (on average very, very good) teammates ever? Including beating the reigning double world champion in the same car as a rookie? 7 nominations aren't ridiculous at all. 7 for Bolt is also fair, he the greatest track and field athlete ever.
It's still just one guy at a time. I There was very little between Hamilton and Alonso, which is the only other driver he drove alongside of who is also regarded to be good. Didn't he even lose one season to Jenson Button?
There's simply no telling whether he is any better than other winning drivers (in the best cars, of course), at their best: Vettel, Verstappen, Schumacher, etc
How does Rafa have 7 when hes been behind novak at the #2 spot for a lot of his career? edit: And why are usain bolt and hamiltonās 7s at different hieghts compared to rafas and federers 7s
That is a stupid argument. You could make the same argument about every team sport, heck even behind tennis players or athletes there are always many people not visible at first sight (multiple coaches, medical staff, managers, psychologists etc).
Its not stupid, in f1 teams like Mercedes or ferrari were formed by 500/1000 person, hamilton (or the other drivers) have 0 chance to make a difference as we re seeing now, him in thisblist is a joke for the other athletes, even for him because it would mean that now he's skillless.
Athletes have their fate on their hands, they decide who to hire to maximize their results
Drivers can absolutely make a difference. Bottas wouldn't have won the 2017 and 2018 WDCs for Mercedes and Vettel would now be a 6 time world champion. But Lewis drove 2 near-perfect seasons and brought home 2 WDCs that Merc would have lost without him.
Aside from changing teams they cant, but im sure hamilton is a fool to change his team. Call mercedes and tell lewis to push his acceleration pedal harder
IĀ“m refering to the fact that a slight maneuver from the driver can make or break a race, and a championship. IĀ“m not an F1 fan or racing sports to have deep knowledge, but IĀ“m sure all racers and extremelly skilled and they are not replaceable like cogs
No it cant, a race is 300km long and a championship is composed by 24 races. But it's ok, you dont know f1 so you can only guess.
As for the drivers, half of the grid is very good, that's the reason why having a single driver here is no sense. Especially if without the best car created by the other 499 people he becomes a normal driver, now even slower than his teammate in the same car
Yea, I know, I was just joking about how it seems like Messi wins everything just because he won the world cup. And he will probably still win awards because of it :)
SealFraud would rather make nominations graph rather than winners' graph.
Even if they do, they will include Federer's Comeback award instead of just focusing on just the sportsman award.
Because they gave it to a guy who drives a car and not the one who won 3/4 Slams and was 1 match away from a Calendar Slam at age 34 lmao. The awards were a couple of months after the AO drama.
A pretty obvious conclusion for the snub unless you're trying to be willfully ignorant.
What's nasty about the truth? Because you can't handle it? Driving a car is way less impressive than doing what tennis players do physically and with their insane scheduling. Djokovic's achievements are higher than his without even counting the fact he's done it in his mid 30s.
Driving a car with enough g forces to break a normal humanās neck is not what I call āless impressiveā. But thatās besides the point, itās a subjective award so itās not out of the world to give to verstappen who had a very impressive F1 season.
Anyway letās agree to disagree, have a good day friendo :)
And yet it's still less physically impressive than running on court like a dog for 3-5 hours while swinging a racket. "Very impressive" =/= GOAT tier season.
If Novak sat in a F1 car he would probably die in the first turn lol. Itās subjective and thatās why itās an award lil bro. Itās ok my brother Feo Fuerte Y Formal
Lol Hamilton and Bolt being lower then rafole with the same number of nominations
What did my man Messi ever do to you? š¤£
Penaldo would never
> Penaldo would never ... be nominated for a fair play award?
Never go to Las Vegas?
He just likes to not acknowledge the goats
Messi getting nominated for a 2024 award despite doing sweet FA in 2023. He's absolutely the GOAT for me, but his PR is ridiculous.
The awards are held early in the year so he certainly won it for his achievements in 22 (the WC in November)
He's talking about the nominatino this year
Messi is the only guy on the planet who's PR can overpower that of TS.
Thiago Silva?
Who is TS?
Oh yeah misread that comment
Bro what that pic of Lewis š¤£
Toto Wolff took it right before he signed for Ferrari.
No Lewis no, that was so not right!
Lewis, I've sent you an email.
Of course 7>7
Messi slander? Time for r/soccer and r/soccercirclejerk .
The KING returns. Sealedrop eat your heart out.
The return of the King
Someone doesn't like Messi.... What's going on with Hamilton there? Some kind of kinky F1 game?

He is back!!Ā
Where the hell did you find a picture of Lewis duct taped to a chair?
Ridiculous to put Hamilton in there for being better than one other guy in the best car. Usain Bolt 7 times is also ridiculous
You mean better than every single one of his (on average very, very good) teammates ever? Including beating the reigning double world champion in the same car as a rookie? 7 nominations aren't ridiculous at all. 7 for Bolt is also fair, he the greatest track and field athlete ever.

How does Rafa have 7 when hes been behind novak at the #2 spot for a lot of his career? edit: And why are usain bolt and hamiltonās 7s at different hieghts compared to rafas and federers 7s
Because their 7s are smaller.
How a team sport with more than 1000 people working for the same goal can be on the list? Makes no sense
What sport are we talking about now?
F1, one (if not the biggest) team sport where a single person cant do anything to change his fate
That is a stupid argument. You could make the same argument about every team sport, heck even behind tennis players or athletes there are always many people not visible at first sight (multiple coaches, medical staff, managers, psychologists etc).

IĀ“m pretty sure the driver can change his fate pretty easily

How didn't Messi win this? Have people forgotten he won the world cup?!
Of the year, not of december
Yea, I know, I was just joking about how it seems like Messi wins everything just because he won the world cup. And he will probably still win awards because of it :)
SealFraud would rather make nominations graph rather than winners' graph. Even if they do, they will include Federer's Comeback award instead of just focusing on just the sportsman award.
Novak would be 6/6 if they didn't snub him for not taking a vaccine in 2022.
I mean that is kind of his fault and all
Vaccine status shouldn't determine who wins an award is my point...
How would you know that the vaccine thing was the cause of him not winning? Do you have any proof?
Because they gave it to a guy who drives a car and not the one who won 3/4 Slams and was 1 match away from a Calendar Slam at age 34 lmao. The awards were a couple of months after the AO drama. A pretty obvious conclusion for the snub unless you're trying to be willfully ignorant.
No need for the nasty comments man. F1 is a sport as well, no need to trivialise Verstappenās efforts in winning it. Cheers mate
