Today on Past Gas, one of the greatest rivalries in modern Formula One-- Lewis Hamilton versus Fernando Alonso. What were the origins of the rivalry, and how did it lead to one of the most awkward peach-eating incidents of all time? How did Lewis, as a rookie, get under the champion’s skin so easily? How did a pit stop threaten to destroy McLaren’s relationship with Alonso? How did the rivalry set the tone for F1 for years to come? The year is 2007, Steve Jobs just announced the iPhone, Shrek the Third is out in theatres, and McLaren had two drivers who hated each other. All the F1 drama you can handle, on today’s podcast.

I watched an interview where Alonso talks about going and finding the biggest juiciest peach he could get his hands on just to make a huge mess of it everywhere infront of Ron Dennis. It was pretty funny he was pretty proud of himself.

I know I'm a Spaniard, but although I have a soft spot for Alonso, never been a die hard fan of him... That said? I feel this podcast ended being a little bit biased towards Hamilton... I think none of you guys actually watched that 2007 season, but it was a total sh*tshow, and ALO was 100% right about being angry towards HAM and McLaren, and things you missed on the podcast showed that both McLaren, FIA and F1 directors were helping HAM win to an extent that has never been seen again. "memorable moments" like the crane that took HAM back to the track from the gravel trap in the European GP in Nürburgring (leaving other drivers trapped, that were not rejoining the race after a red flag), the China GP where he rookied entering the pit and trapped the car in the gravel (a steward tried to push his car, which AFAIK was not legal) and then cried everywhere, or the full angry kid show he performed at the Brazilian Gp, where he went out roadraging against ALO passing him, or the "gearbox failure" that ended being a human mistake... Is HAM a good driver? Yeah. Did he had the best car of the grid for years making it hard not to win? Yeah. Is he the best driver ever? Nope, and his attitude killed any appreciation most people could have for him... Great podcast as always, but come on, there was way more sauce on that season, and ALO was on his right to act like he did, after being accused and bullied by Ron Dennis and Bernie Ecclestone, no one but you and British media has ever said he is a Baby for declaring that McLaren and FIA wanted a British (and also black) driver to win his rookie year on a British team, ditching the previous year champion...

To clear things up a bit... Alonso’s first season was with Minardi. He had a fine rookie season considering Minardi were a minnow team. He then spent the next season as Renault’s test driver before making the jump to their driver.

Nolan bud, driver coaching via radio is still banned, that wasn't a past season anomaly.. that's why everyone is trying to figure out what Hamilton saying "my tires are spent" "my tires are gone" and "my tires are loose"... and proceeds to turn the best 2 lap times of his race without boxing.... it's a secret coooooode..... spooky

The odd similarities between Lewis Hamilton and Hamilton is that they both had their own period of absurd success and are both possibly the best ever in their field, at least in modern times. Both are pretty subjective since I'm sure F1 fans don't universally agree that Lewis Hamilton is the GOAT in F1's history, and the same could be said for Broadway fans about Hamilton the musical. Whether or not you like them, they both are probably the first thing you think of when you hear F1 or Broadway.

After watching Hamilton drive around the entire field, in the rain, I knew who my favorite F1 driver was. He would’ve finished the race a lap ahead of the entire pack, expect that there was a mysterious yellow flag thrown in the last few laps. Always thought the F1 officials did that only to close the gap to keep the race “exciting”🤣 Not sure which season. I know it was 10 possibly 15 years ago.

I'd say the MOST toxic driver pair relationship that deteriorated massively over the course of a couple of seasons was Hamilton v Rosberg... Alonso and Hamilton weren't entirely that bad in terms of the scale compared to Rosberg. Rosberg literally sold his soul for that WDC that one year. That's why he retired immediately after that because having that kind of stress would've destroyed him and he knew it.

I think there's a bit more to this story. I know it's just a podcast for entertainment purposes but be more thorough in your research. It's a common pitfall but if you're doing research try to branch out from English-speaking media since they're bound to contain a bias when we're talking about a British driver in a British team in a British dominated motorsport. I'll even help you translate the articles lol. But yeah in the end the penalty in Hungary probably cost Alonso a third consecutive title. I'm glad to see you guys get into F1 but it can be convoluted at time with politics and its hard to compile a clear cut narrative on pretty much anything that happens.
