(I was Lauda's biggest fan during the years that he was racing, I was ecstatic when Ron Dennis pulled him out of retirement to drive the MP4/4)

(I want anyone else on the grid except hambone to win races)

Lauda was Hambone's adviser during the McLaren/Mercedes negotiations; To take Lauda's advice and chase a paycheck was the biggest mistake Lewis ever made, and I feel sorry for him now.
