It is impossible to feel sorry for Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton, who was barred from watching the Wimbledon men’s final because he was not wearing a tie or jacket. The self-importance of refusing either item from a steward merits nothing but disdain at the amateurishness of Hamilton’s attempt to get into the royal box. No man who thinks his outfit is more important than the chance to watch the Wimbledon men’s final deserves such access. When the fastest driver on the circuit cannot get up to speed with the dress code, what hope do us mere mortals have of finding ourselves in pole position at a party?
