Re: The Official Fernando Alonso thread
Yep, Ferrari may be better than last year but, it isn't any different from 2010, 2012 or 2013. I hope McLaren ends up sorting things out sonner than later. Correct! Ferrari were almost level (and even ahead) in all three of those years! And I believe this is the largest gap we've seen between the l...

Re: Is Vettel's rep gone for good?
Amongst all this discussion around the technicalities of F1... may I make a simple proposition? Vettel is slow compared to Ricciardo, which means Webber also sucked. No BS. No Tyres. No EBD. No car related nonsense. Just talent. As for Vettel's 4x championships, they were all down to the car and mos...

In a straight fight, Ricciardo could never beat Vettel. RBR are just telling Vettel to put Ricciardo over so it looks like both their drivers are equal.
