Mansell was unlikeable. Moss was unlikeable. Stewart was unlikeable. Hill Jr was dull but probably likeable. Most F1 champs are not terribly likeable human beings.
I saw Lewis Hamilton race a few times in F.Renault and he was a massive arsehole. I don’t see him as a difficult character but British people don’t seem to have much affection for people who win too much for some reason.

Makes me wonder what Lewis's legacy will be. He's such an unlikeable character I don't think he'll ever occupy the place in people's affections that previous (far less successful) Brit champions have.
Watching him and Bottas having a massive and obvious sulk on the podium at Silverstone after coming 2 and 3 instead of the 1 and 2 they felt they deserved in the 70th anniversary GP being a prime example.
