As an aside, it seems very clear that Webber will NOT be at Red Bull next year. Not if Vettel has anything to do with it. Surely you don't say those sorts of things about your team-mate ("he's never helped me") and expect to keep working with him in the long term. I think we may get a gloves off fi...

How more people don't dislike Karun is beyond me. It's the unibrow? It's the fact that he was ubiquitous (thankfully that's calmed down a bit now) yet had no real talent, constantly trying to get involved in everything like he was a big deal "my father made this race happen"... Yet every time he st...

as long as they qualify on top6 they have a chance for the win. we have yet to see a proper normal weather weekend. and australia win is new to lotus due to colder weather, we know how badly lotus performs in cold conditions in last year's championship. that shows that theyre improving in some weak...

In answer to the OP - yes. They don't have a fast enough car to win consistently like they did in Australia, and before long, teams will be on top of the tyre situation and strategy will no longer be as big an issue. The fact remains that the two main components of a successful season are qualifying...

The video cuts a few seconds into it, so surely this is impossible. Also, it might simply be running through a pre-determined demo program completely unrelated to any circuit.

Reutmann's example is vastly different to the one with Vettel/Webber. He disobeyed team orders and refused to move over for Jones. In Sepang 2013, both drivers had agreed pre-race that if they find themselves in that position after the first pit stop that they would hold positions. Further to that,...

I tried to buy the article for 89p as per their advertisement but their paypal function didn't work for me.

It was clear to see Raikkonen had absolutely no traction on slow speed corner exit. But in clean air, Kimi was considerably quicker than Grosjean.

Horner was actually asked the question of why didn't he tell Seb to relinquish the place, and his answer was something along the lines of

"Do you really think he'd have given the place back if we'd asked him?"

To me, quite frankly, that says that Horner doesn't actually mind what Vettel did.

I'd say: Red Bull Lotus Merc Ferrari are in there somewhere, but it's hard to say way since we didn't have both drivers in the race, but maybe one step down from/on par with, Lotus.

Same was said after Turkey 2010, and that was worse than what happened yesterday No it wasn't - they were both allowed to race but took each other off...

this is what Webber was saying after Silverstone 2011 when he UNSUCCESSFULLY tried to do the same on Vettel: Mark Webber stood defiant after ignoring repeated orders not to try to overtake Red Bull team-mate Sebastian Vettel in the closing laps of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

I'm too tired to read posts here, but Kimi was faster than Grosjean today when they were both in clear air.

For those who don't have Twitter, Vettel's admitting to have made a big mistake, dubbing himself the 'black sheep' Vettel doesn't have a twitter account.

People's hypocricy never fails to amaze me "Of course I ignored the team as I want to try and get another place --Mark Webber" this was after the 2011 British Grand Prix The only difference was that Webber was not good enough to get past in that instance Agree but Vettel continuing to ignore the or...

Thing is, it was down to the tyres, less the "your positions after the last set of pit stops are the positions you need to hold to the end of the race". They wanted to save tyres, and thus hold station for both drivers. I think Merc are did something far worse than RBR - Red Bull were worried about ...
