A saintly/slanted film? Yes. But not really wrong or inaccurate in the largest sense....
We're not far apart ;-) I value agressiveness, in fact I kinda like Hamilton's style these days even though I'm not a fan of his, also didn't mind Alonso's move on Vettel last week at Monza, loved Webber's move on Alonso at Spa.

But I draw the line at taking an opponent out willfully in open wheel cars. And if I read in interviews that the other driver was having an out of body experience while driving the car and attributes that to his beliefs, I'd make a mental note to stay the F away from him on track ;-)

Me, I was an Alesi fan for years, so there goes my credibility ;-)
