Here is a little gem I found on the internet:
By Cult
"To be fair I think most people like Nico. I like both drivers, I just think Nico is pushing the boundaries of lucky (Hamilton retirement in Australia; hits Bottas hard in China but car survives; safety car comes out in Bahrain eroding all of Lewis' advantage; Nico uses a banned setting but didn't appear to face any internal sanction; made a huge error in qualifying in Monaco which wasn't punished and gave him pole; cuts chicane significantly in Canada, doesn't give the time back and cuts DRS the next lap but no penalty; Hamilton retirement in Canada while car somehow hangs on; better pit stops than teammate at least 75% of the time this year; Hamilton's pitstop in Austria so bad that it puts him behind a Williams which eases race pressure; overtakes a car under a red flag, no reprimand even though Button got a three place grid penalty last year for the same offence etc.)
I usually don't like conspiracy theories or complaining about circumstances. Get on with it - actions speak louder than words for the most part. It's just crazy how many things have gone Nico's way. I have this gut feeling that Nico is living on the edge of a really bad race."

Aye, but common courtesy isn't to paint with your own excrement.

Good one, perhaps you should take your own advice

Drunken Hobo, how do you know and can you prove the validity of this comment "many of whom have multiple accounts to up-vote their own deluded rantings"?

It would be perhaps more helpful if he posted a link to the forum he was criticising.
Personally, I would be most interested in examining the views.
Drunken Hobo has a reputation for posting things that are untrue and then refusing to back up his claims with any substance.
So don't hold your breath for any link.

Doesn't take a genius to figure it out. Some of them can make a post and within a few seconds they have a +7 rating on their comment, making it the highest-rated.
A few have them have also been banned for it in the past, but of course just use one of their alternate accounts to keep posting...
I'm not the only one to have spotted it either, as they aren't exactly subtle. Somebody said to me once that it was an exploit with the Facebook log in, but I don't understand that. It happens on other HYS articles too, so it's not just deluded Hamilton fanboys that are up to it.

Precisely why I filtered him long ago, although to be honest the name gives it all away really. Still, at least you can get rid of the idiots around here, I came in unsigned having altered my computer settings recently.... the DRIVEL I saw!! Reminded how right I am to filter the trolls. Now have a re-assuring list of filter bars across the page and can read only the intelligent stuff. Great posts.

Again I was proven right, Rosberg has been living on the 'edge of a bad race'. Eventually he ran out of luck. As they say, form is temporary but class is permanent!

Yes you were truthhurts, now, I think it's time for your medication.

MA, this was wasted on POB "roughly translated i take it that load of old bollox translates into anybody that has a different opinion than you of little lewey puts a bug up your anatomy and you are to scared to debate with them" as it would appear as filtered to him.

How can you debate with someone who refuses to change a point of view even when provided with evidence to the contrary?
It's pointless
