If you want to talk about arrogant, remember Senna? He is looked upon as a God by some people (not me by the way, I thought he was the man who Schumi learnt to cheat from, which then spoiled an otherwise brilliant career). He thought he had a God given right to win (Senna, not Schumi) and would simply drive through anyone in his way (e.g. Prost).
Lewis does not seem to be like that at all. I just hope he leaves McLaren and joins Ferrari at some point! Unlikely I know, but I can dream. |
Senna was he best F-1 driver of all times, hands down.
But yeah, I think Lewis is not only young and inexperienced regarding his attitude towards the press but also seems to have some lack of people skills to some degree, making him come across as an a-hole/arrogant person that some people/press are trying to portray of him. All in all he just seems to be an honest guy, and speaks his mind no matter what, without thinking too much what's he's going to say. I don't personally think he is arrogant. But I do think he's got a long way to go and only life will teach him how to be a more humble and patient man.
I'm sure Lewis will get there, hopefully not by his own mistakes alone, but also by being smarter and learning from other bright drivers' mistakes as well. Well at least that is what I hope for him. He's a good chap!
