F1 is not a spec series. Vettel and R.B dominated for around half a decade.
I think it's an individual choice.
I think it's lame to judge Lewis or Seb for how they choose to go about their business. Whatever works for either.
Perhaps. But I think about Valentino Rossi. Unless I'm mistaken, he is by some way the most followed motorsport person on Twitter.
Did he covert fame? Maybe someone will say otherwise, but I can't recall him attending many music awards ceremonies. He became famous, and has generated a cult-like following, partly from his effervescent nature, but also for being extremely good at what he does. Most people, even if they're not interested in MotoGP, will know who Rossi is. But he doesn't strike me as being particularly bothered about the celebrity lifestyle, but obviously knows how to enjoy himself, and I can respect that.
But as you say, different strokes for different blokes, I guess.
