More pathetic view from European beach? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lamer

'more pathetic' is the definition.

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for lamer that I've seen before include "Comparatively weak" , "Weaker, excuse perhaps" , "Hobbling more" , "Less convincing" , "not so powerful" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
