      Lewis is a fantastic guy. There is absolutely no reason to hate him. Those that do are subconscious racists. Lewis is easily one of the nicest and most humble and normal of all the drivers.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, JB, Jenson Button, was the LAST of the gentleman racers. He had class, intelligence and manners and those qualities are rarely seen in the racers in F1 now. I realize I'll take some flack from fans of the current crop of F1 drivers, but having been an F1 fan since I was a child in the 1960s I have a lot of history to look back on and the drivers around at that time were well and truly, "gentleman racers." I have had the good fortune to have met a few of my Formula 1 heroes from those days, Brian Redman, John Surtees and Jacky Ickx are enough name dropping for this bit. I spent the most time with Jacky Ickx and he was a perfect gentleman who had the patience to sit and talk to me about those days when he was a contender for the WDC, despite the immense pressure for his time that weekend. The man was pure class, just as I imagine JB will be when he reaches the age of Jacky Ickx. Again, I'm a #22 fan for life.
    Lastly, I cannot end this without an appropriate: Requiescat in pace, Sir Sterling Moss.

    The year Jenson won the world championship was the best year ever for me seeing his struggles before the beginning when Honda pulled out. It’s almost a rags to riches story. A brand new car, the uncertainty, then amazing test results pre-season. Seeing Jenson hugged by his Dad when he won the title, but my favourite race of all was his Canadian win from the back of the pack to beating Vettel in what was the longest race in history with the weather halting the race. A true racing legend and a thoroughly decent human being.

    Jenson, You have made my life a little bit more colourful and just joyabe! I have followed Your groovy career since 2001, while You was competing for Benetton. I still can't believe, it's over in F1. Thank You and good luck for the future. Enjoy your new life. PS. It was amazing to could see Jenson in Monte Carlo, Monaco in 2017. Especially the qualifying session was brilliant, when it's going about Jenson's performance in it ! In the race, after unlucky retirement, I was crying.

    Got to see Jenson test and shake his hand all those years ago at Kyalami South Africa. Sadly only ever saw him race on tv. That manta looks amazing. In all honesty, formula one cars are usually shoddy up close, last time I saw them up close (ok around 2001) I couldn't believe what looks so amazing from far is far from nice. Built for a reason, not to look pretty. I think Alistair incorporated both in his design. I like it

The 'aero manta' ('standard black' as you call it) that you saw is more than triple the size of the one that was made for JB. Both pieces are spectacular!
