20 years ago, the sport was exciting, partly because we had "characters" - drivers who didn't care about what their bosses thought. In 2010, Hamilton is the closest thing we have to a "character". Every other driver has been trained to deal with the media like a politician.
Are you joking? Hamilton is the most manufactured of them all! He actually half cracked today in the interview. He was going fine until proded a bit more by the interviewer and came out with the 'find out who call me in' line.
