I know just what you mean. He's obviously had the media training; he gives exactly the right length answers to whatever the question is without ever saying anything of any consequence. He'd make a good politician when he's finished with F1.

Saying that a lot of current F1 drivers are just corporate clones these days, Paul Di Robot-Resta, I can't even listen to him anymore! 10110110110...

lol I completely agree with the politician part. That is why I am such a big fan of Mark Webber... He has no problem saying whats on his mind even if it is not "correct".

It does get a bit boring with every driver saying the same thing. I was impressed that Perez came out with his attack of Maldonado at Silverstone. He also moaned about Grosjean after Spa. However the danger is he turns into a moaner much like Rosberg did in his first full F1 season.
It's nice when there are some personalities in the sport.

these are people who are exceptionally good at one thing in driving
it would be surprising to me if they also happened to be expert communicators
age helps I suppose but only up to a point
Mansell being a case in point
he'll be a dour, humourless, monosyllabic bore until the day he dies
notwithstanding outstanding driving ability and cajones

I agree with all that you wrote Jamie, particularly the part about Vettel .... and also I think this race should be off the calendar.
You really do have a hate thing going.
