Let's make it fair as you are using his performance based on 2014, I would use Vettel's performance in 2013 and based on Vettel's performance in 2013 he stands no chance.

Although in 94 the Williams was a difficult car to drive, so to was the Benetton as it had to be driven on a knife edge to extract its performance potential. Michael generally had a much bigger advantage over his team mate than Ayrton did over Damon. As regards the pole positions, the Williams had ...

Yeah, I guess Vettel hasn't proven to be the fastest F1 driver over the last 4 years just like Hamilton is not proving to be the fastest driver this year? Do you see the problem here? +1. When you're in the dominant car all you're showing is that you are faster than your team mate. Lewis had shown ...

Why would you focus on 2015? When the rules stay the same next year as well!

Vettel what a drive nuff said!

Raikkonen for dismissing the myth about Alonso being relentless

Perez for quietly beating Hulkenberg

Rockie

One of Vettels best drives in my opinion. Fabulous from him today. Great to see a performance like that. I got to admit, wasn't expecting that. Without the help of SC, on top of all. He must be getting back some of his lost confidence, maybe his Suzie is starting understanding something after all. ...

Fisi was poor in a race winning car Spa 09 he should have beaten Kimi also Kimi came from 17th to beat him on the penultimate lap at Suzuka.
Webber is way better career decisions let him down!

I don't think Whitmarsh has been usurped just because the 2013 car was a dud. He's been ousted because his leadership of the team was failing. His people skills and his management decisions were not of the standard McLaren require. I mean in 2012 they had a fantastic car but personnel errors cost t...

So i was just on the BBC's sport website and found this little nugget of information released by Ron Dennis himself. First time speaking openly and publically about him taking control. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/formula1/26467140 Its good to see that McLaren seem to have put the smart hat back on a...

Why are people talking about this? It baffles me the race is going to happen, its months away for crying out loud I mean!
The paralympics games have not been stopped why would F1 that is still months away not happen?

Was there ever a time in F1 where a team struggled as bad as Redbull has in winter testing only to come back and still have a good fighting chance at the championship ? I don't recall any. Nigel Mansell in the Ferrari at the 1st race in Brazil he booked his ticket out already only for him to win th...

This reminds me of last season, Hamilton wins in Hungary and next thing F1 media and his fans go on saying he can win the next 9 races.
I guess we all know how that one turned out!

Rockie

An interesting display of the character and throwing hissy fits…. His spolit child attitude is well documented when things aren't going his way, you only have to whining at his team radio to "do something" when he couldn't pass a car, or "get Mark out of the way", calling a fellow driver a "cucumbe...

Redbull spy Red Bull have hit back with a post on their website from the 'Red Bull spy' about a rumor from Andrew Benson....

I'll be seriously annoyed if Renault get the engine deadline extended, it's like a football team getting 10 more minutes on a game because they are 1-0 down. Renault had the same set of rules as everyone else and if they can't build a good enough engine then that's tough luck they should have done ...

I would like to ask why they have the first test in Jerez and then two in Bahrain? Why not a third elsewhere? Perhaps with a different climate and track conditions. Money. Actually, it's because the teams wanted to test in a more realistic (i.e warmer) racing environment as compared to the cold of ...

Without a doubt Niiki Lauda the professionalism was second to none, it was same with Schumacher talent + hardwork where others rely just on the talent they have, and that is why Hunt cannot be compared to him.

Have I missed a statement were Seb said he was looking at his options? Or has the rampant rubbish that we see every year started early? If by Race 6 we haven't seen the RBR performing then I will understand these comments; but as I fully expect the RBR to be up to speed by race 3, i doubt this will...

Rockie

F1 is not just about engines, team operations as well is another part, so everybody talking about Williams FI finishing ahead of Redbull and Lotus make me laugh, even with the faster car Mclaren bottled it!
So wait till the season starts.

I have got to laugh at the F1 'fans' on this forum. The last two years the Vettel haters where all saying 'he must leave and prove himself at a different team to truly be a great driver'. Now they are saying he must stay and show some loyalty to RB. Jeez when will you's make up your mind haha. I do...

Rockie

I have the feeling that RB is mostly in it for publicity It's not a feeling, it's a fact. Red Bull's involvement in F1 is based on them having high promotion of the brand. In the past there has been a few comments about how they wouldn't hesitate to leave the sport if they stopped being as successf...

Looks like Redbull is paying a hefty price for pushing how much as they did last year to get Sebastian Vettel his 9 wins streak. No wonder Vettel's rant about "Remember those days..." He saw it coming. I knew they would have a slow start for this year, but right now it looks like it may be an embar...

Jenson Button has said McLaren are looking good but aren't the fastest car so that'd point to Mercedes being the fastest. Everyone at the tests is saying the best is Merc so why should Lewis regret the move? Fastest car going into the new season, freedom to express himself off track (tattoos on sho...

I'm looking forward to this year, hoping that the Red Bull is quick, but a bit off the quickest. If Vettel finds himself in a car that is maybe only the 3rd or 4th best, and manages to wrestle good results out it, it will enhance his reputation far more than winning another title in the best car.

To be fair a lot of Vettel’s critics have said they wouldn’t rate him one of the greats until he performs in a weaker car….maybe he’ll have that opportunity without leaving Red Bull. He already did that in STR, but critics said that STR in 2008 was fast. They will say that car is fast if he perform...

I don't like the rules governing how DRS is used in races. I don't like the idea of double points. But neither of these make Formula 1 artificial. People throw that word around a lot, because they know that it makes headlines, resonates (in a negative way) with fans and is generally a good way of g...

Ferrari, Mercedes and probably Honda (if they wish to develop close ties with McLaren) are most likely out of the question. I can't see Cosworth suddenly coming back to supply a big team. I think a new Volkswagen Group engine would be most likely were it to happen. Probably Audi, Bugatti or Porsche...

Both speak a lot of rubbish, F1 is what it is humans don't like change people talk of the 60's and 70's like they were really that good, last season a lot of people complained about F1 last season because a particular driver was dominant.
Meanwhile it was the norm in that era!
