The lap The Stig set was done in the dry. And the only corner he cut in my view was the last one, and that was because the car got sideways on him halfway through the turn. Even The Stig was impressed with the lap time. Why you gotta hate?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Franz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 11:44AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[He didn't "resign", he "re-sign"ed.<br><br>The way you have it, I had to re-read it (see how that works) several times before it made sense.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 9:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[I was like WTF, they gave him $138 million to go away?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rndmnme]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 12:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[For real.<br><br>I'm not usually one to nitpick on typos and grammar, but come'on!

I tried to explain that I learnt how to spell by reading blogs and that I was infact re-signing my contract, but the HR woman was having none of it. So now I am out of work and can't afford the payments on my brand new Focus with the revolutionary SYNC by Microsoft that lets me get email while I'm supposed to be driving. No wait, they've turned off my company email, so the SYNC is useless.<br><br>BTW that Hamilton deal is the steal of the century. They pay third-rate second basemen more than that. Sorry, the BMW 135i is the steal of the century (RWD, BMW interior, 300+bhp, $35K[ish]). This is a close second.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[fizzandpop]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 1:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm pretty sure he re-signed, not resigned....<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[geo.stewart]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 9:56AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[I agree.

Assuming he continues, and there is no reason to assume otherwise, they got him cheap.  Had Lewis signed for one or two years instead of five, that follow-on contract would have been worth twice as much.<br><br>In Lewis I see no reason why F1 can't have it's second sports billionaire.  I see where Michael made $36M last year on endorsements, appearances, etc.  Heck, during his driving career he was paid $2M/yr just to wear his ball cap.<br><br>Yeah, it's stupid high, but someone thinks it's worth it.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JIm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 10:22AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[The title had me shocked at first cause I though he quit.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[In2uition]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 10:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[thought*]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[In2uition]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 10:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, I had to read it several times to understand why he was getting paid to resign in 2012....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gunnar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 10:32AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/07/hamilton-resigns-with-mclaren-for-138-million/</guid><description><![CDATA[Re-signing is way better than resigning, however much you get paid!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ajprice]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 11:25AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
