A far cry from the current generation of spoiled brats/F1 drivers who live for the limelight.

You say that, and it's been the case for quite a few years. However, I reckon the current crop, Lewis, Kimi, Philipe, and Heikki are a pretty decent bunch to be fair. They might not be big characters like James Hunt or Mike Hawthorne but their not actually objectionable individuals like Senna, Mansell, Schumacher, (who seems to have chilled out big time now he's retired) and some of the other knobs of recent years. Also Webber, Truli, Jensen, Heidfeld, Kubica ( a huge talent BTW) and the other "also-rans" are reasonable human beings who seem genuinely delighted when fate conspires to put them on the podium. So I'm not ssure that your accusation is really appropriate at this season. Alonso is still, and always will be, a whinging tw@t though.
Oh, and by the way Autosport's cover is especially hilarious this week; "IS FORMULA 1 BIASED? We ask the questions and our investigation may shock you!" or some such nonsense. So is it a shocking about-face by the sycophantic mouthpiece of Max 'n' Bernie I hear you ask? Of course not! The matter has been looked into by the "Autosport experts" and the result is that indeed Lewis gained an advantage and deserved to be docked the points. It's worth buying a copy just to read their filthy sh1t, utter cockends the lot of them.
