I think he's laughably bad at media.
I think he sulks like a spoilt child; yesterday was a perfect example...
He caused the crash, refused to talk about it (apart from to blame Leclerc) and stormed out of interviews. Meanwhile, Leclerc took the adult approach saying they needed to work through it for the betterment of the team etc.

It's quite nice seeing things like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yHR4M4UrM8
And possibly my favourite comedy interview moment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlFt_W4664M
I haven't seen him storming out of interviews personally, this is the only interview I've seen so far (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhYXa0jXwlA
) and they both seem pretty mellow about it IMO.
Personally I'm in two minds about that. He definitely seems way past his peak in terms of raw driving ability. But he and Hamilton are doing a great job of cutting through the media bullshit thrown at the drivers (especially each other) which is great to see. Would like to see him remain in the sport for a while yet.
Ferrari need to chuck a solid number 2 driver in with Leclerc if they want any hope of getting back near the top. I think they could do much worse than chucking Hulkenberg in there.
