...what do you make of Nigels words...We all know nigel is a single minded SOB but this sounds like sour grapes a bit and he has no reason unless he feels he will lose his place as the Lion heart? Surely this is not so petty?

I don't think it's sour grapes as such, or even petty, but even 15 years after winning the WDC Noige still carries those chips around on his shoulders!! Watching him in GPM was enough to know that!!

He makes a fair point in that Hamilton has jumped straight into a competitive car, whereas the likes of Senna & Schumacher did not, nor did Mansell of course! But so what! Hamilton has more than justified that decision on the basis of the season so far.
