Ive always said if i was in F1 i wouldnt care if they paid me peanuts, for racing with a rubbish car, for gods sake im racing in F1 as my job and theres billions, yes that it at least 1/6 people, that get paid less then peanuts for doing the worst of worst jobs, webber hasnt actually complained, neither have any of the drivers ive heard, but if they are even contemplating thinking about complaining over a million pound payrise theyre being refused, lost all support from me.


People just complain about their jobs... take a look at this poor slob.

BTW, you say that because you're not a top F1 driver, if you were one of the handful, you'd complain as well.


Press n hold 1 and 5 and you see the guys pain :rofl:

No, i most definitely would not.


Well get yourself in that situation, where you're paying them and then a driver by the name of FRAFPEE comes along and is no better than you (in your opinion) yet he's getting paid a few million. Human nature is human nature, not saying that *you* would, but I am saying that would make you the exception and not the rule.



I couldnt care care if they paid him in solid gold and gave me his s*it for wages. I really couldnt, as long as they give me enough to live (securely ie, so that i dont have nutters and super fans harassing my door) , i wouldnt make a squeak. not a squeak. Pay me what you like, spend the rest on this car of ours.


This might be your mentality right now, though its because you dont belong in that 'world' right now. If you did, everything changes. Money isn't just money anymore, its prestige or honour. If your peers (fellow drivers) average is way higher than yours, you aren't going to be happy are you? Especially if you're performing. Let's just say you get USD100000 a year...that's way more than you need to survive. While your teammate is being paid millions.

Everyone's mentality changes according to their surroundings. Look at poor old Lindsay Lohan. From an average home life, she turned up on screen as an innocent girl with freckles in parent trap.

As fame and cash poured in, this monster emerged and she's now a lost and ugly soul. :crying:

With all due respect, your are so far beyond wrong, i wouldnt care if i was driving for hrt year after year, i have the right upbringing, money wouldnt even vome into my head, im afraid you dont know mr like i know myself, and you can trust me word. your wrong.
#244896
Fair enough, all I'm saying is you can't guarantee what kind of person you'd be in a completely different situation/circumstance. You know yourself best as you say. :thumbup:

Let's face it, you have to pay to keep the champion in the team! Same as everywhere!

:yes:

I think the driver salaries were posted up here before for 2010 and Alonso was getting something silly like 25mil while Massa was getting 14mil.


14m is far too much for Massa's skill, that's payment for playing second fiddle peacefully.
#244985
End of the day they both race for RBR

Vettel WDC=1
Webber WDC=0

That is as simple as it should be....

He won the title and deserves a bonus?

If you were a builder and you built more houses than your co-worker you would want more money

If you were a salesman and you sold more "TV's" you would want more money.

It's that simple, he has brought new sponsors? More supporters for RBR too

And 25 mil is far too much for Alonso...who it appears also needs to have a sidekick paid off.
#245206
20 out of the 25 mill is probably paid to keep his mouth shut.
