Lewis Hamilton actually appears humble when he collects the trophy in this vid

I agree, I just don't have Hamilton down as a guy who is that bothered by history and prestige.

..so one presumes you've not viewed the youtube of Lewis and Jenson in the McLaren 'toy shop'.... hopefully you are open to the possibility of changing your mind...

I've seen the 'toy shop' scripted video and teh Senna tribute on Top Gear where Lewis does come across as a genuine nice guy, but on the other hand it I heard Hamilton was offered the Bandini trophy during his maiden F1 season in 2007 and he turned it down because he couldn't be bothered to go and collect it...

Awesome driver - definitely!
Mr nice guy - unsure

Where did you hear that? If it were true, I doubt they'd have considered him again this year.

I think the bit on Top Gear's Senna tribute where he was in the car and giggling like a school girl says it all really.

My first thought too, when reading the above!

I'm sure that if McLaren invited each and every one of us to their "shop" we'd all be in awe too!

That said, i'm sure that Lewis is bothered by history and prestige.

"I heard"

= unsubstantiated rumour
or tittle-tattle

as ever I shall give it the full credibility of any quoted contemporaneous source.

Not sure it makes him Mr Nice Guy, but another thing I found telling was last year at Monaco. He'd crashed in qually, making him start at the back for what was going to be one of the few races he stood a chance of getting a result out of the dog McLaren's car was (first half) last year. Did he look grumpy - no, he was climbing the railings taking pictures of the crowd and generally looking still like a kid in a candy shop.

deeks6 User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
He's what - 25? goes out with a Pussycat Doll, drives F1 for a top team, earns half a squillion quid a year ... not a lot to be depressed about

You have a point there, but i'll bet that he's really bothered that some of us on here may or may like him! Not amount of money, Pussycat Dolls or F1 drives will be able to make up for the whole that that must leave in his life

Really?

He is bothered about history. I think you're thinking of TGF.

Being bothered in history of the sport, while I think is a good quality, does not make you Mr Nice Guy. Nor does ignoring it make you Mr, er, Nasty Guy.

(what is said above)

well by the sounds of it he could have bandinis sister any time he likes...

ive always thought that as well as a driver lewis is a massive f1 fan boy, whereas there are some drivers in f1 who have zero interest in the past id never have put lewis into that category

If that was scripted (and by implication they were reading from that script), then they should be acting, not racing cars. I've seen worse actors on Hollyoaks. (not difficult I suppose).
