Lauda: Lewis will kill someone

THREE-TIMES Formula One world champion Niki Lauda believes Lewis Hamilton will end up killing someone on a race track if he does not calm down.

As in the Monaco Grand Prix a fortnight ago, Hamilton was involved in two accidents in yesterday’s rain-hit Canadian Grand Prix.

In wet conditions at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, after running into Mark Webber and sending the Australian spinning, Hamilton then collided with McLaren teammate Jenson Button, which forced Hamilton’s withdrawal.

Commentating on German TV, Lauda said: “He is completely mad. If the FIA does not punish him, I do not understand the world any more. You cannot drive like this as it will result in someone getting killed.”
