The F1 world unawareness of Grosjean rant

I've been reading on this #F1 practice on the web (fell asleep last night), and something is getting annoying to me.

Besides the obvious spotlight for the 1-2 from the Macs, next up is the german love/hate thing about Schum on a Merc ahead of Vettel, some Ferrari scorn poor performance notes and very little about the 3rd place man Grosjean.


Are people so involved in the Eclestone flying F1 "circus" that are unaware of the racing world outside it?

"Shum experience this, Vettel that, Redbulls struggling, Ferraris too bla, bla, bla... oh and there's that 'whats-his-name' in 3rd". From whom I know very little about so I'll stick to gossip about the same old ones.

There should be a special piece about him telling his story, where he comes from, his best moments, like this one:



...and how good this 3rd place Quali actually is on a car other than the usual top ones - MacLaren/RedBull/Ferrari/Mercedes.

I wrote months ago how happy I was to see him back, on what appeared to be a half decent car this time round. Tiff Needel tweeted about it. But the "specialized" press seamed to see it as just another report. They still seam to know very little about him, or they regard his coming and his first performance as very little.
