Sorry , kids , but that's all BS .

It's the personalities that we watch , like Ricciardo's smile , or Massa's plucky come-back , or Kimi's wry sense of humour .
We wait impatiently to hear reactions from drivers after incidents on track to get their take on just what happened .

That's all about personality .

It is truly more exciting to know the back story when two unrelenting egos enter a corner vying for position .


These guys are in the limelight .
Some take it and hide it away , and that's fair game .

And some , like Lewis , go out and run with it , which is also fair game .

But , really , as nobody is in this game for very long , all should be acting a little more like Lewis , as his antics seemingly keep the sport in the news almost as much as the sport , itself does .
Driving is only part of it .

You can try to be the curmudgeonly millionaire , and be less marketable when it comes to contract time , or you can , "a la Hunt" , have fun with it .
Maybe somewhere in between the two might be best , but it's a part of what keeps the whole thing going .

Everyone wants to know the full story of their heroes .

You love his driving but he can be a nob .
You'd like him better if he was never a nob .

Point made .
