Hamilton Considered Quitting F1 - Live Formula one

Lewis Hamilton

Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton Considered himself Quitting Formula one after the 'lie-gate' scandal.

24year old was disqualified from the Australian Grand Prix and forced to apologise for "misleading" race stewards, a misjudgement which cost McLaren's technical director Dave Ryan his job.

Nothing is going right to Lewis Hamilton, From the past Four race Hamilton not even reached the top three position.

Hamilton said To The Sun" I wasn't 100% sure I wanted to be here for the next five years.

"There was so much going on. Do I want to be in the limelight with people slating me? Do I want to be in the spotlight where I can't even go to the fish and chip shop or the cinema and have fun without people taking pictures of me? he further added "But if I want to race this car and continue doing this, that's what I've got to do."

McLaren will find out their punishment for lying to stewards when they go before the World Motor Sport Council on Wednesday.

"On Friday morning both I and Anthony spoke to Max but I am told that Lewis has not."

Asked how he saw Hamilton's future at a team that has supported him since boyhood and whether there had been discussions, Whitmarsh said "I have read some stories this morning but I have obviously spoken to Lewis and Anthony on quite a few occasions.

"In all of those conversations, the commitment from Lewis and Anthony to this team has not altered. There has been no hint of what is reported," he said.

"At the moment, I don't believe what has been reported. What we do know is that we've got to learn from the mistakes that have been made, I've got to learn. I have made mistakes," said Whitmarsh.

"Everything that Lewis and Anthony have said to me has been incredibly appreciative and supportive of what this team has done for them and there's been no hint of anything that would cause me to believe that they would contemplate for this or any other reason leaving this team."

Lewis Hamilton

It was really shocking to hear that Defending Champion Lewis Hamilton and Mc Laren Team have been Excluded from the classification of the race, the governing FIA stated.

Stewards had reopened their enquiry on Thursday after "new elements" emerged and summoned Hamilton to appear before them at the Sepang circuit.

Their verdict was that "Hamilton and McLaren Mercedes acted in a manner prejudicial to the conduct of the event by providing evidence deliberately misleading to the stewards at the hearing on Sunday

McLaren said "McLaren Mercedes understands that the stewards made their decision on the basis of reviewing radio transmissions between the driver and the team.

he further added that he will accepts the stewards' decision and will not appeal."

"When the safety car came out towards the end of the race, Lewis Hamilton passed me but soon after he suddenly slowed down and pulled over to the side of the road," he said at the time.

"I thought he had a problem so I overtook him as there was nothing else I could do."

Hamilton had told Speed TV that Trulli went wide onto the grass at the second to last corner.

"I was forced to go by. I slowed down as much as I could. I was told to let him back past, but I mean . I don't know if that's the regulations, and if it isn't, then I should have really had third," said the Briton.
