I don't mind Lewis getting a lot of airtime, it's understandable, but asking for his opinion on everything like his vast experience is going to shed some light on us? That I don't really like. Rubens Barichello, DC (when he's not swallowed a radio), Trulli, the list goes on, I would actually listen to them...
British F1 fan's are thirsty for a World Champion, finally someone has come along and he also brings a whole new demographic into Bernie's minions of couch potatoes. The public can't get enough of Hamilton at the moment, it's just supply and demand.
Doesn't mean I'm not sick of the press constantly asking for his opinion like he's a seasoned racing driver, there are infinitely more experienced drivers out there that don't get a tenth of the camera time Hamilton is getting at the moment.
I must have missed something, maybe because we only get the race from the UK (no build up, mid week profiles just the race). I hardly saw Hamilton for the whole race, even Blundel comented on the fact. I did see every FIAt pit stop and even a number of slow motion shots of FIAts cornering.
