I think most dislikes seem to stem from percieved 'arrogance'. I haven't met a succesful driver that wasn't arrogant. If we saw more drivers interviewed in our own languages I wonder whether the list of dislikes would grow (because the arrogance would be more obvious).
My kids and I met the Hamiltons through karting and they were really nice people so they are not on my list. I'm a Jenson Button fan and I think he stayed proffessional and 'reasonable' during difficult times so he is not on my list.

My list:-
Alonso - hugely talented but arrogant
Kimi - talented but lazy and arrogant
Shumacher - arrogant, talented and arrogant
Irvine - arrogant, arrogant, useless and arrogant

Hamilton's were a lot hungrier when they were karting probably - once the multi-millions were signed for, like so many, it goes to their heads and suddenly they equate income with power. Simply that (apparently) they can force (blackmail) someone like Ron Dennis out of F1 after he supported them from Lewis' pre-teens, and was a leader in F1 for 30 years, is astonishing. I hope a more positive explanation comes out at some point, but with the majority of the press reporting the same, it is hard to judge them on anything else.

Here's my list of all-time least favourites: Irvine, Raikkonen and Coulthard. I was going to choose Lewis but he's a better driver than that lot so he's saved... for now

If you can't say something nice about someone
DON'T say anything at all

The thread about the least fav driver seems to have morphed into a foot fetish ball busting squirrel hunt.

Take care Max may be taking notes, if he can stop enjoying himself for long enough!
