Great. He is the World Champion and also as friendly as your best friend from the next door. Unbelievable friendly. OK, it is not easy to meet him, but then he signs many photographs.
and shorter. Also it is completely different than last year.
Every year the F1 Grand Prix of Monaco is the amazing Highlight of the season. It is like a paradise, where you can collect autographs. There are many opportunities to meet the stars. E.g. at the charity soccer match, around the many yachts in the harbor, at the Hugo Boss-Party or at a prêt-a-porter. There is always something an amazement!
Collecting Formula One autographs at the Barcelona testings 2010
Jenson Button:
Jenson was difficult to collect. His Motohome war located inside the paddock and everytime he had a break of testing he disappeared inside. The only chance to collect his autograph was to wait in front of his truck. Then it was possible to get 1 autograph.
Bye Bye Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan and Welcome to Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster, Sean Penn, Johnny Depp, Dustin Hoffman, Robert De Niro, Uma Thurman, Jane Fonda, Faye Dunaway, Bernardo Bertulocci and many others...
All the interest was focused on Sebastian. During the day it was nearly impossible to collect his autograph. But there was a good chance in the late evening. Then all the fans were away so we got our requested signatures. Great to see that Sebastian is still very kind although he is a Champion!
He was in a good mood and tried to fullfil as many autograph wishes as he can. But you have to be at the right place at the right time. Sometimes two autographs were possible.
He wrote one autograph per meeting an colletor. More is simply not possible to get from a current World Champion. But never the less he was very kind and in a good mood.
Michael Schumacher: He was very relaxed. Wrote comparatively much, but still hard to collect. One has to know where he is staying at which time. One evening he was playing poker with Kubica, Heidfeld, Fisichella, Rosberg, Briatore and Ecclestone. He finished the game at 1 o’clock in the morning. Then we got the nicest signatures ever.
