Hammy was the only driver to not attend London F1 event.

"He was the only one of the 20 drivers not to take part, instead opting to take a two-day holiday in Greece as the best way to prepare."
"When Hamilton’s name was announced at the F1 show in Trafalgar Square attended by 100,000 fans and organised by the sport’s new owners, the Formula One Group, it was booed."
I'm not saying he can't do as he wishes. However, he consistently does things that, at least in my mind, discredit the persona he tries to project.
Great driver nonetheless.
