2011 BRITISH GRAND PRIX: Lewis Hamilton needs to grow up | Mail Online

'Senna was the man,' he proclaimed. 'That's what I want to be. The man.' It was easy in those days, when he was a welcome and competitive newcomer into British sport, to project on him all the qualities we wanted. Maturity and sportsmanship were high among them amid the polish of his personal appearances.
The events of this season - ill-judged jokes, visiting a rival team to ask for a drive and ragged performances at the wheel - have given us cause to rethink the veneration we lavished upon him. Is he the man? No, he is still a man-child: prone to petulance, surly in defeat and deluded by his own well-developed sense of entitlement.
