I somehow doubt it.. You need to remember that the Rugby World Cup is ITV's lovechild (as is Formula 1) and the fact that Jonny has won it before will also count against him. Unless he kicks the winning drop goal in the FInal in the 80th minute after Hamilton limps in around 20th place, then it should still be Lewis's... The lad has transended sport in terms of being a rookie, of mixed race and having a turbulent season. He's sorted as the winner..
