Lewis plans space flight for family and WAG
If you believe the Evening Standard, Lewis Hamilton is planning to pay £625,000 for five seats on a Virgin Galactic flight. The first commercial flight of Virgin Galactic’s SpaceShipTwo is scheduled for 2010.
Lewis will be accompanied on his trip into space by girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger, dad Anthony, step-mum Linda and brother Nicholas.
The Standard’s “source” said: “He [Lewis] is on the way to becoming the first billionaire sportsman, so what better way to spend his fortune? Lewis thinks it would be the perfect way to say thank you to Nicole and his family for their support throughout his triumphant year.”
Hmm, dubious. Is it us, or does the mystery source sound rather like a PR for Virgin Galactic? Could be.
And how would McLaren feel about their prize asset riding a rocket into the unknown? Surely, for insurance reasons alone, it can’t happen.
Chances of this happening: Slim to none

Nice racist comment there from Krzysztof. I thought after the Poles enthusiastically got behind Hitler in the Second World War and helped him murder 6 million Jews, they would have been too ashamed to be racist. Seems I was wrong. It’s not Jews anymore (none left to speak of); they’ve now turned their racist attention to black people. Mmm, very civilised.

You are not able to think Ludlow so do not talk bullshit.In fact, Great Britain helped Hitler to conquer Poland and establish holocaust. Poland signed a pact with Great Britain in case of Hitler’s invasion on Poland. But unfortunately fish and chips eaters were to fucking skirt to fulfill that agreement. It seems that Brits can only laugh at Kubica’s nose. When sb is laughing at Lewis, it is an act of racism in this racists free country, buhahahaha

To a Ludlow-are you out of your mind?!
In Poland before second world war lived a few million fews who were killed by nazist.Why so many of them lived in no other country but only in Poland-answer is very simple-Poland was the only country they could live after they were moved out from Spain and the other countries all over Europe.
So your english education is very very poor.
a Ludlow-how many languages do you know?
-four(like I do)
-three
-two
or my be only your native language?
Why did I ask?This is the answer about your hopelees education.So this is the reason you do not know much about history of Europe and the others-but if you do not know-do not talk!!!!!!!!

Polish people do not like Hamilton becouse he always say I m the best and he do the same on the track-I m the only one on the road! this is the reason
Civilised? is not -writing about how who is looking-how gridcrasher do! This makes our people nervous and this is a normal reaction for so stupid situation but it makes you very happy!
Change your mind!
Have a nice day a Ludlow and be nice to the others.it did not cost much.
