We all know he's no Angel. On or off track.

When did you meet him? I've read heaps of stories on fchat from people/fans who've met him who found him very friendly and generous with his time. Some even talk about how he went out of his way to do things for them and/or their loved ones.

On the track is another matter.

I love my car. Buy your own

Oh come on. That's silly.

No doubt anyone in his situation would get fed up with photographers from time to time.

He stole HH Frentzens girlfriend too!

But he's a champion and a legend. It's gutting what's happened.

He is a German F1 driver, surely he wouldn't be arrogant ?

People often confuse confidence and arrogance.

Confident people CAN be both, but it's usually the frustrated that see confidence as arrogance.

In the case of Germans I guess one could see arrogance as confidence if they were in awe of their achievements.

Definitely not my experience, sadly.

Demanded I delete any photos I took of him and had no interest in talking with me even when I mentioned how big a fan I was - then stormed off.

That sucks but everyone has an off day and I'm sure being famous would make it hard to have one of those days.

Absolutely - just a bit disappointing at the time but I can imagine it all gets a bit tiring at times for them (celebs).

The best celebs learn how to deal with it graciously.
