Yeh he makes mistakes but so does every driver, but i think your confusing not being able to contain himself with never give up atttutide.
I'd rather him be like that than just give up, look at China he was going for button right to the last lap it could of ended in disaster but it made it exciting and nailbiting.
Sporting to Button? well, after the stupid Australia little episose/ big lesson learned... its the least he could have done!!
Did you hear what they had to tell him on the radio: Lewis, BE CAREFUL
i bet they were thinking on writing it on his pit board...
that was funny.
There was a BBC interview about that rant of his, he said he's a passionate driver and he'd do it again he was wrong but he'd do it again.
I understand it, it was a heat of the moment thing what you gonna do?

I find it bizarre that people confuse passion with unsporting behaviour. lewis is not unsporting and not arrogant, just supremely confident in his abilities and not prepared to give up.
f1ea-I imagine EVERY driver who was out there in rain on worn tyres was being told to BE CAREFUL. You dont think we gt to hear all the onboard commentaries do you? We hear a tiny fraction.
