Hamann is a famous BMW tuner.  On an automotive forum and not one knows who he is.

Kind of different when AMG isn't a dude's name.

When you read it it definitely sounds a lot like richard hammond which for us IS a household name so I can see why we'd jump to conclusions instinctually (EDIT: also forgot to mention how there are complete fobs on this forum who would make similar typos)
