First of all - brilliant for him. Fantastic. A bright guy, way too bright for F1, I never got the feeling he 100% wanted to be there due to his brain bandwidth to do so much more than just drive for a living - and he won the World Championship. Clearly a superbly sharp man - an expert in physics, multiple languages etc.

I can't think of someone in sport, recently, who won the ultimate prize in his prime, and moved on.

Such an intelligent move. Retiring at the top, getting out of what is just a sport bubble, at the age of 31 - love it.

Now, it'll be Pascal, imo.

May I just say Lewis' camp, predictably, was classless in his PR reply (like most motorsport PR it won't even have been his words, but his PR Manager writing it entirely)
