Pretty self indulgent from Yamauchi. I don't need philosophy from a game, I just want a good list of cars and tracks and good offline racing to go with the foundations they've already laid.
I wish the reference laps where more embedded into the game. I don't see why I can't go via his menu thing into a time trial with his setup/car etc an his ghost and see what I can do to beat it.
I also think him explaining the setup he ran with would help a lot of people learn how to set up a car

I wonder what racing game gets played when Lewis meets up with his brother - GTS or PC2?

First FIA invited Kaz to the partnership, later Lewis... Damn you boy. You don't have to do anything and everyone are coming to you! Magic!

So is there just a video and that's it? Is it that which makes HAM the "Maestro" of GT Sport? I don't get it. Maybe it's just me who haven't found it yet, but as far as I know there is nothing in the actual game like a ghost to chase or anything. You can se the video clip but that't it. In the beginning I got the feeling that there would be something much bigger built into the game which would justify all the Hamilton advertisement.
Weird. Really weird.
This article also gives that impression: https://www.gtplanet.net/play-gran-turismo-sport-get-coaching-lewis-hamilton/

Should've gone with Räikkönen instead.

A forty minute video of him saying nothing at all except for when he's telling Kazunori Yamauchio to shut up while he's trying to drive.

Raikkonen was going to tell Kaz that he did not care.

In the end, so far at least, it's just a puff piece, designed to draw casual fans, F1 fans and Lewis fans into the game and to promote the game via the Youtubze. It'll probably move a few units and achieve it's goal but in terms of usefullness for the hardcore fans it's pretty meaningless other than for fanboy bragging rights in the inevitable Youtubze comment wars. To incorporate it fully into the game with Lewis's tune, a ghost car lap and some more detailed instruction would really have pushed it over the top.

PD's rep is on another level compared to every racing game dev out there.
I hope they expand the partnership though. Need that W08.

Honestly i really dont care at all about lewis and his input into GT sport. I'd rather have more content and a better off-line mode as was stated previously in this thread.
