Re: Time To Pin Your Colours To The Mast, Alonso or Vettel?

Without attracting confrontation, and accrediting all that's due to the correct team.. It's a shame to see RBR pull out such a gap at the front. Vettel's quality is undeniable, especially when you give him such a hooked up car! Credit to the RBR team.. That being said - I still don't like Vettel! ;)

Re: Will Redbull Tell Mark To Move Over?

The Mclaren and Ferrari race pace was better than the Bulls over long lap runs. If Alonso gets a good start which the ferraris have had this year.. It could be an interesting race!

Re: Button May Well Be exposed at McLaren in 2013

I think Lewis is a quicker driver than Button, but when it comes to 'consistency' over multiple laps - Button is your man. When Button gets the set-up on a car spot-on, he competes at the highest level. Through a race, he always seems to come alive towards the end, but can always gap well and at tim...

Re: My mind can't quite comprehend this, Lewis, Alonso & Vet

The way this season has gone so far - I am surprised people are still trying to predict the end of it!

There are 6 races remaining? I think the McLaren is certainly the car to beat in the remaining race - you only need RBR or Ferrari to DNF / Finish down the grid.
