Now I wouldnt judge 555 so quickly. Im sure he has valid reasons for his behaviour. Maybe this is his only fun? Maybe he was abused as a child? Maybe his boy friend has been acting weird for a long time? Maybe his mom was really an alcoholic, who knows.Quote:

World Champions are champions and were obviously good enough to put together a consistent enough season to win it, even though neither title was won in a "convincing way", but this isn't important about the fact of being a WDC anyway. In contrast it can be mentioned that the opposite pro-argument like the titles make them automatically "better drivers" than non-WDC's (Massa, Vettel, etc) is seriously flawed.
I would like to clarify a few aspects though. One argument here was that "Kimi never criticized his team and that is good". I would say contrary - in case something is wrong, one should open his mouth and tell, what is going on. Of course such driver would possibly be called a whiner, etc. Sometimes it looks like almost all drivers are accused of being whiners. :p : But if that's the case, "whining" is a normal part of a human being and we are all of that as well. :D Anyway, if someone gets a bad treatment or something else is unpleasant, the right attitude would be to open mouth and try to improve things instead of silently settling with them. If for some that is whining, then let it be so.
Also - often an argument of "suiting a driver's style" is used and besides this the phrase "favouring" is used. In my opinion such theories are incorrect. Adaptability is one of the most important traits of a driver, because an F1 car is in constant change - often new improvements and parts appear on the car, which keep influencing car's handling and behaviour. A driver should be capable of adapting to all of these changes. Designers come up with innovations that supposedly should make the car faster as much as possible. "Driver's style" has secondary importance, especially if this way doesn't improve car's overall performance.
Thirdly I'm a bit puzzled with all this "team motivating" stuff. I can read phrases like "should motivate the team" too often. IMO a top designer should be capable of motivating himself. If a designer can't concentrate on work without drivers pampering them all the time, he is not a top designer. I suspect the word "motivate" is misused here anyway. A driver ought to work with engineers for hours after practice to try to find the most efficient setup, but such activity isn't really what you would call "motivating" - just part of the overall job.
Everybody has fun from time to time. But in F1 he was sober enough to win the WDC.Quote:
