Hey guys. As anyone here who watches ITV for Formula 1 will know, every qualifying and race build-up this year has bee practically dedicated to Lewis Hamilton, thus giving it the nickname "The Lewis Show". But, how often is he mentioned in comparison to the other drivers?
Well, this weekend, I'm going to find out.
My plan is I'm going to keep a tally for all the times a Formula 1 Driver is mentioned duing the build-up to qualifying and the race of the Hungarian GP weekend - I will include Scott Speed, Marcus Winkelhock, Christijan Albers and Michael Schumacher alongside the 22 current drivers too, as these guys may also be mentioned. Every driver will be mentioned at least once, as James Allen does run through the grid on the race day build-up, so no current driver will never be mentioned this weekend.
The whole point of this I guess is to see how far ITV have taken his "Lewis-Mania" out of control. If you guys wish to have a guess at how many times Lewis is mentioned, do it, can have a little competition :lol:
