The media attention comes with the job - Hamilton

McLaren Mercedes driver and 2008 World Champion Lewis Hamilton believes that he has learned how to cope with the huge interest of the press. In an interview with the 'Woking News and Mail', the Briton said that he is happy to co-operate with the media.

Lewis Hamilton said: "The media attention comes with the job, and it was one of the biggest changes to my life when I arrived in Formula 1 from GP2. But I like talking to the media, and I know they're important to Formula 1's success.

"But it's rare that I read the newspapers, or even watch the television actually, so I don't really get to see what's written or said about me. I think that's probably the easiest way to deal with it."
