All I want is to watch them race. If they're friendly, thats a plus, but not a requirement in my opinion. If he needs to be left alone, fine

I agree everyone is different and some folks like privacy or are not overly people friendly, no big deal.
I'm not 100% in agreement that they are risking there lifes for our entertainment, I know very few drivers or riders that are in it for our entertainment. Its just a by product of what they love to do. Not once have I or anyone that I know has woke up on race morning thinking man I need to entertain. The stress I don't even consider. He's a racer not mandated to race, any stress they feel comes from it being a job not being a race. The stress comes when you feel like you have to perform better not entertain better.
