    I was wondering whether there is any precedent for honouring a leader in these sorts of situations - as in, Max just holding back and letting Lewis win given the unfairness of the situation (of which he must have been aware). If he'd done that he could have aquired legend status himself, and still gone on to have a very good career I'm sure. I wonder if Lewis would have done it if the situation was reversed.
    Agreed - although I suspect what Lewis says in public and what he says in private may show a degree of divergence. You don't get to achieve what he or any other world champion has without a fairly high degree of self belief, and many drivers have said that they put winning first and everything else nowhere.
    Blog? What blog...?

      Oh Lewis thinks it is a sham, like many other drivers. But he knows the spotlight he's in and takes his role-model status seriously especially to black kids, and the importance of sportsmanship. It's his team's job to fight it, not his. I note even Toto went to congratulate Max - they have no beef with him.
