Re: Vettel and pressure - according to Ric and Ham
It is incredible how 90% of you are delusional, you want to put Vettel as a person, driver, a total fail, against your mighty Lewis. I have to disappoint you. Behind Seb / Lewis fail or success stand thousands of men. You would like to point out certain errors of driver, and there you go, everything...
