Jacques Villeneuve smacks Hamilton

Formula one’s most outspoken driver Jacques Villeneuve has done it again. He just does not want to be out of the spotlight. After F1 bade farewell to him, he still hasnt stopped blabbering. Usually he would attack Michael Schumacher for his ‘Dangerous’ driving style, but now he seems to have a new victim - Lewis Hamilton
In an interview to Autosport, he said the following
First he criticized Hamilton’s overtaking manoeuvres -
“When will these chopping moves stop?”
“Lewis is not getting penalised and his behaviour off the start has started to look the way Michael used to.”
Then Villeneuve made allegations of favouritism with Lewis, saying that he should have received penalties.
“He makes progressive moves that would have got some of the other drivers black-flagged.”
Then he put the cherry on the cake , doubting his competitiveness comparing him to teammate Fernando Alonso -
“Lewis is very fast,but he still has to step up to the plate and beat Fernando Alonso.
“And we still haven’t seen how he reacts under pressure that will be interesting to watch.”
It seems to me that cash strapped, or fame hungry Jacques Villeneuve just does it to attract attention, i have hated this guy ever since i read his interviews about Michael Schumacher. Formula one is a much? nicer place without him.
