Niki Lauda, who after Hamilton's qualifying fire had cheered the Briton up over
pizza, insisting with typical clarity that the driver was "right" and the
German team "wrong".
老大說話了:HAM是對的 德國隊是錯的!
"Lewis ignored it because he remembered before the season that we said they
could fight freely against each other.
搏擊
賽季開始前我們就說要自由競爭了
"That's why he did the right thing," the great Austrian told Bild newspaper.
老大說所以他做的事情沒錯
Not everyone is as convinced.
但很多人不是這麼想
The Hamilton ego-show?
The headline in the major German daily Welt claims Mercedes is the victim of
"Hamilton's ego-show".
德國人認為Mercedes是HAM這次個人秀的受害者
"With his disobedience, Hamilton weakened the authority of the team leadership
and provoked his teammate Nico Rosberg, for a comparatively low reward."
他們認為HAM就是猴死囝子 他只是在挑釁ROS而已
But according to Hamilton, that's not the point. On Monday, he insisted he is
"hired to race".
HAM表示:恁爸是來比賽的 不是來聽TO的
"It is not questioning authority," the 2008 world champion explained. "I am
hired to be me, and race my heart out."
"我不是在挑戰權威 我只是來比賽 就醬"
Team boss Toto Wolff and Rosberg agreed after the race that Hamilton's defiance
had cost Mercedes a race win.
Toto和ROS都覺得勝利被HAM搞砸了
Again, Hamilton doesn't see it that way.
HAM覺得委屈
"I did not cost Nico a win," he insisted.
"I was racing against him! Why would I be concerned for him?
"I don't think I was being ruthless. I was not even being bloody minded. I was
doing my job. I tried my hardest to be ahead and I don't feel as though I was
obligated to help."
"恁爸是想打敗他的 他怎樣與關我屁事!"
"我在跑我的比賽 沒必要幫他!"
John Watson, a former F1 driver turned commentator, thinks the problem is home
grown.
約翰覺得今天的問題在於是不是(德)國產的
"Is Toto Wolff more interested in projecting himself?" he wondered. "Does he
really have the authority?" the former McLaren driver told the Daily Mail.
"Toto有沒有足夠的權威?"
"Paddy Lowe is a fantastic guy, but he is not the person to deal with this.
Lauda is a very clever man, but I don't know what authority he has.
"Paddy不會處裡這種事情 老大我不知道"
"If there was one person who could kick ass in that team, it is the person that
they let go, Ross (Brawn)," said Watson.
"能解決這種問題的人選大概就是Ross Brawn了"
