I do find it odd that Lewis seems to polarise opinion so much.
For my 10c, there's only one driver on the grid who thinks he's more important than the sport itself, and it's Seb Vettel. The constant moaning and hand-waving, calling for "Charlie", ordering around his teammates, and hurrying-up the safety car all paint a picture of a man whose ego is vastly overextending itself.
In spite of that, I absolutely respect him as a fantastic driver, and his personality doesn't taint my overall view.
Alonso is adept at making himself centre of attention when the mood suits... but in a very "smart" way...For my 10c, there's only one driver on the grid who thinks he's more important than the sport itself, and it's Seb Vettel.

All awesome drivers, and interesting personalities.

I agree; Vettel is a special kind of 'spoilt' with regard F1. But he gets a pass for some reason. Never the less; great driver.For my 10c, there's only one driver on the grid who thinks he's more important than the sport itself, and it's Seb Vettel.

In the car, a selfish pig, like all the rest.

Vettel, along with Danny R, is one of the guys I most look forward to seeing interviewed. Articulate, funny, usually manages a smile even if losing. An entertaining guy.

What? Vettel can be a huffy little child when he's not doing well. Daniel is great completely agree but wonder if that will change once he gets into a championship fight and the pressure mounts?! Hope he stays the same thiughIn the car, a selfish pig, like all the rest.
Vettel does have a wicked sense of humour though (for the people who can't speak german, you'll still get the idea) :

maybe Vettel just put in a better lap ,isn't this what we want really close competition.
The fact that Kimi is second proves that Ferrari had the better car today. Yesterday it was Mercedes...so let's see what happens tomorrow. I suspect damage limitation from Mercedes.rubystone said:
