McClaren's second best driver Lewis Hamilton has had a week he would like to forget about, with 3 things going wrong for the ex World Champion!.
Firstly, on the Thursday before the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne, the young British driver was caught speeding in his hire car on the streets of the city.
When asked his name, Hamilton said he was called 'Jenson', however a quick witted policeman was suspicious of this as the name on the helmet of the driver said 'Lewis Hamilton', it also had Hamilton's name splashed on the side of the car, all this in addition to Hamilton's photo on the bonnet of the car did not fool the arresting officer James Kilbride, who arrested Hamilton for speeding and impersonating a decent driver.
Secondly, in the main race on Sunday, Hamilton only finished in an embarrassing 5th place with his teammate and rival Jenson Button winning to take maximum points. A despondent Hamilton said after the race ''It's not my fault it's my teams fault...I'm the youngest Formula One champion ever, so it's highly unlikely to be my fault....It's their fault, It's them cos they didn't make my car faster than the other ones.......how can I win if it's not faster!!....derrrr''. He was then asked how the relationship was between him and his compatriot Button? ''Button's not better than me!?!'' Hamilton quipped back to the asking reporter.
The final act of bad luck to fall on young Lewis was perhaps the most important and serious of all. His mum phoned him on Sunday night to say that Blockbuster Video had been in touch saying their records showed that he still had a VHS copy of Driving Miss Daisy borrowed 7 years ago. The fine has amounted to £65'000 if settled immediately, but a source close to Hamilton has it that he has 'no idea' where the video is.
He did comment on the video to a passing reporter today however, saying ''I don't feckin believe it, what else is gonna go wrong!!?!, it wasn't even that good....someone told me it was about cars and shit......but there wasn't even a single car chase!!.....rubbish!''.
