Clearly they got it right with him. I don't really understand the argument.
If he was useless and still had all of that backing, fair enough. But he's hardly a walking money bag of uselessness, is he?

I really do agree with Selby here, I simply do not understand the antipathy shown by some to Hamilton. True, from the day as a 10 year old he persuaded Ron Denis to back him he has had the best equipment but he really has put it to good use every season. He was never the only one with the latest chassis or engine and I know many drivers who have had no compromise budgets that have simply failed to deliver
How many 10 year old kids would have had the brass neck to try that anyway?
He has been good value most of his career and like Senna and Schumaker before him will, of course, cash in. I have no particular axe to grind here I just find it strange how hostile some can be
