Sue and Linekar do not care about such triffles. Race? Nationality? Puuuurleeeez. It's a knee's-up. A time for repressed athletes to let their hair down. Insecure athletes love faux awards. I admit, I get a twisted kick watching fit manly girls like Dina Asher-Smith and KJT struggling and stumbling around in kitten heels and tight-fitting dresses. Fucking love it. Dolling themselves up. It's all good. It's all bullshit, but it's all good.

So everyone who doesn't bang on about climate change isn't a cunt. I've never heard Piers Morgan or Jeremy Clarkson go on about it, so does that rule them out as well
?? I don't know who those people are. I'm talking about Lewis.
We are talking about what qualifies people being a cunt. You said Hamilton wasn't one because he doesn't bang on about climate change. I was just giving a couple of examples why that doesn't necessarily rule people out of being one.
I must confess. I am absolutely cock-a-hoop regarding British athletics. I've always thought it was a fraudulent exercise. No pun intended. Seb Coe? The man is rotten to the core. Steve 'I was only speeding because I was picking my kids up, no, I was cheating on my wife' Cram. Paula 'take a piss in the street and get paid-off by Nike nicely' Radcliffe. These fucking wasters make Darren 'Bronze' Campbell look good. Know what I mean? If that wasn't enough, we've got Mo. I genuinely believe athletics is dead and the Olympics, which is on the horizon, is fucked. The plebs have woken-up to this fucking shitfest. That born-again christian cunt who jumps into a sandpit does my head-in too.

You don't like Hamilton do you?
What's the bloke in the picture got to do with it, is he up for it again this year. 'The rest' meant those in the frame for 2019.
I'm no fan of F1 because it doesn't do much for me as an actual spectacle but it is a formidable sport in every other way including the stresses drivers have to endure and the fitness they have to acquire to enable driving in around a two hour race consistently up to and over 200mph. To reduce the sport to just "sat in a fucking car" is just silly, F1 pilots have to be supremely fit, skilled and talented in what is an extremely competitive world sport.
Like or loathe Hamilton's public persona he's an English born multi world champion in a sport that the UK is as a whole rather successful at. Damon Hill (above pic) and Nigel Mansell were singular World Champions, dull as shit but adored and won SPoY, Hamilton is now a six times world champion and has therefore surpassed their achievements by a country mile and without the benefit of privilege (Hill) so he really should be adored but clearly isn't.
Hill was a funny fella and quite self-deprecating:
Is it tonight? Once the highlight of BBC sports year and now, thankfully, no one gives a fuck. Still, Lineker isn't going to get those taxis paid by someone else....oh wait, he is.
