What is it exactly that Di Resta has personally done to you or a member of your family to attract this attitude of yours? I hope it not that he has a high opinion of his ability because if it is, then you must hate all race drivers.
PM's never rated the guy and found him to be overhyped by the Brit media. The rating argument was always defensible, though I would've disagreed until Di Resta's form disappeared the second half of this season. I always thought he was just proving it's hard to be spectacular in a thoroughly mediocre car.
The Brit media hype thing is also defensible, although said hype on the Beeb and Sky was nowhere near the screeching levels attending all the UK drivers on the grid in 2008 when ITV had the coverage. ITV that year had Ant Davidson featured in their show-opening teasers despite Ant being pretty mediocre in a genuinely crap team that didn't even make it a third of the way through the season.
