bbc Sports Personality of the year 2008
In any other year there would be a stand out winner but this year any one of about 5 people Could win the thing.
If you ask me Rebecca Adlington should win just for the things she managed to do at the 08 Games yes i know Hamilton did great things.but he had more help along the way than Adlington For that along she should win.

Re: bbc Sports Personality of the year 2008
I hope Hamilton doesnt win it, there are people that have put more effort in over a longer period of time to get what they won at the olympics. I'm not saying Hamilton isn't talented, i just think F1 isn't a fair playing field.
Perhaps this should have been a poll

hamilton without a doubt. he has an undeniable talent behind the wheel and has only improved it by racing since he was a young lad. he's done outstandingly well over his first 2 seasons in the top flight, becoming world champion in only his second season.

personally if choosing a candidate from F1 I would prefer David Coulthard, I think it would be a fitting tribute to a man who showed himself to be a true gentleman during his career ???

You can stuff the same about Hamilton then. If Hamilton Wins they should also give his car an award.
I'd say Calzage. Why is Amir Khan not on the list? Not saying I'd vote for him but I know plenty that would.
