Vettel = Awesome

I have absolutely no issues with that finger - he is quite a character, and you guys better get used to it as he should get at least 3 WDCs.

See, I have no issues with Vettel, not my favorite driver but he is a character and loves to joke around which is fine by me. I think he's certainly a talented driver and can qualify with anyone but 3WDCs... let's have him get one first. WDCs are only as good as the car you're given and I believe both Mark and him are where they are in big part because of the car's dominance.

Sure I could wait - or spoil the surprise by saying he will be the champion this year...

I have no issue with either Redbull driver taking the WDC, but I prefer Webber....as Vettel has plenty of chances in the future to be WDC but Webber is nearing his heydays...

Damn that finger!!!

I love the look on Mark's face; you know he's thinking; if you keep doing that; I'll break it off!

I think he did that because he was probably told over the radio that Mark banged in the fastest lap of the race on the last lap.

That photo is awesome!
And Mark smiling shows that there is no animosity. Just simple competition and good vibe inside the team.

I noticed the good vibes at Turkey. It was evident also at Silverstone
Sure Mark loves Sebastian.

Marks a nice guy, he knows childish excitement when he sees it!

Hes smiling in the same way your grandmother probably did when she would see you do something silly when you were young.

Mark is a nice guy but to use Smedleys phrase, Im not sure he's that magnanimus.

[abbstarr]

Yes, hugely.

I was a fan but recently he's seem to have changed, his flaws have become very obvious. His passing record is horrible but I agree with most on here that he does a good job from leading but apart from that his driving is a bit questionable, I think its probably to do with maturity levels at the moment but can't deny he's a passionate driver.

[FormulaOnboardHD]

yes he was starting to annoy me and he still is

[misterworldwide]

Vettel Has Annoyed me since i have seen him race in formula 1 !

[Big Azza]

Like I always maintain - he definitely can overtake, if anyone needs any confirmation you need to remember him from his STR days. And he has made a couple of overtakes, but yeah - brain snaps at Spa and Turkey.

Although Webber had no right to close out his team mate. How does that help the team?

[Robert12010]

but then what right does vettel think he had to just try and barge mark out of the way at turkey.....sorry mate but.........

[CarBore]

Personally I'm a fan of Vettel and even i was thinking "what the hell was that?" when i was watching turkey. With that said Lewis' move on Massa at Monza was more pointless, only it wasn't on his team mate. Pretty much everyone was made mistakes this year though.

I guess people care more about Lewis, Vettel, Alonso though...

[Robert12010]

yep probaly true there

No, people (on this forum at least) like to glorify the mistakes made by all racers other than Lewis. You will watch people go from "IT WAS HIS OWN TEAMMATE" to "SO WHAT IF IT WAS HIS OWN TEAMMATE" in minutes.

The internal rule is that the drivers may race each other as long as they don't get in each other's way. Webber clearly did that. Webber should have just outdragged his team-mate, not force him wide....

But yes, the impetuous youth of Sebastian Vettel meant he didn't look first, so that was a mistake on his part...

well the thing is mark held his line...prehaps he could have moved slightly but then really it all started when his race engineer didnt tell him that vettel had turned his engine map up....according to autosport june 3
