Hungarian Grand Prix: Lewis Hamilton wants to win F1 title 'the right way' - BBC Sport

The problem I have with this is that he says contradictory things. Let's revisit last race in 2016. Backing up the field so Rossberg would be potentially overtaken. How is that he 'right way'? And does anyone really believe he would have "won the title the right way" last year against Rossberg? Uh, no.

Then there is Steve Matchett: its ok if he would have been able to pass a Ferrari or two then he could have kept the position. Since he did not pass he was obliged to give it back. WTF? Complete bollocks and pandering.

Rest assured kids, he does calculated things to try and present a good image. However, he forgets that the TV broadcasts his in-race radio comments which usually present a different angle.
