baby-boy:Like I said not good enough! Que sera baby-boy:This is an Old Wives Tale. That was not Newey's car and in the record books zero credit goes to Newey that is all the knowledge I need Fastest lap is not the most credible judge of the speed of a car. Esteban Gutierrez and Sergio Perez have set fastest laps without necessarily owning the fastest car. A more feasible metric is number of pole positions the stats might show 9-8 in Ferrari's favor but you have to account for the fact that it was Hamilton's rookie year and Alonso is well known for his poor qualifier status. Even at that but for their catfighting one of them woulda won that title easily In 2008 Hamilton's running mate was Kovalainen nuff said! Despite how badly he sucked he was still good enough for a win and a pole that tells you that car was as good as if not better than the Raris baby-boy:Stop resorting to hyperbole! You can not say for sure till Vettel is put in similar machinery in similar circumstances infact that Schumacher was able to win validates my point and we are not even acknowledging that Schummie had to play small mago mago to win baby-boy:We can also say Bayern handed Chelsea the Champions League but that's not true Vettel still had to go on and win the race. 7th would have been good enough if Vettel did not win the race! It was easier for Alonso to win than lose! All pressure was on Vettel and he delivered masterfully baby-boy:Since he only needed 3rd place whose fault is it that he could only qualify 5th? This theory doesn't make any sense! Even if he finished 3rd and ahead of Alonso Vettel woulda still been champion since he was only 7 pts behind Webber Haba! Bros stop giving us zobo here! Assuming it would have been possible to get to the end of the race on super softs lemme remind you that Webber hit a barrier was losing grip and had to pit earlier than normal! No one got screwed baby-boy:Are you saying drivers have zero input in their cars? Lmao! Why bring it up? The mistake came from you as you lumped both years together. My response was clear and concise As at Vettel's gearbox failure who was leading? Him or Hamilton? baby-boy:Everyone had issues with those tires! They were unsafe and the public outcry was unprecedented. To lay this on Horner and RBR is a complete joke |

A-40 Reading this stuff is quite interesting, but one thing is that you didnt answer Baby-boy's question The current car engine is a 2.4 V8, so do you think Vettel could win in a 2.4 V6 engine? Roll on 2014 |

As at Vettel's gearbox failure who was leading? Him or Hamilton? Well before Hamilton's tyre blow out an 8 second lead looks like its in the bag Kovy won a race that Lewis had a puncture and Massa retired, Even Timo Gloak came in 2nd Fastest lap is not the most credible judge of the speed of a car. Esteban Gutierrez and Sergio Perez have set fastest laps without necessarily owning the fastest car. We are talking about an era of starting the car with less fuel, Bridgestone tyres, and era where a poor car cannot produce the fastest lap. Like someone said roll on 2014!!!! Am out !! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/19969175 |
Re: FORMULA ONE (F1 2013) Official Thread For 2013 Season by A40(m): 1:04pm On Nov 09, 2013 |
baby-boy:By lap 7? Lol this is hilarious! Comparing a lead at lap 40 to lap 7 Bottomline is he won! Nobody cares about the circumstances baby-boy:Even back then the slower cars produced fastest laps albeit not at the same frequency 2014 should roll on so that Vettel can pick his 5th and we can hear another excuse as to why he is not legit omar22: A-40Read closely I did respond! It would be phoolish to give a definite answer |

Vettel on pole! Webber 2nd,Grosjean 3rd,Hulkenberg 4th,Hamilton 5th and Alonso 6th Expect a lot of people on the even numbered side of the grid to lose a place from the start as they are on the dirty side of the track! Same thing happened last year and we saw Alonso and Ferrari tamper with Massa's gearbox just to get on the clean side Sergio Perez kicked out of McLaren and Massa to Williams! Interesting stuff Raikkonen done for the season with a bad back and has since been replaced by Kovalainen |

All hail the Vettelmeister! Respect greatness! 9 wins in a row! Bring on next year and whatever rule changes the boy would come out tops Hamilton pipped to 3rd by Webber at the death. I think ninjas should stop comparing Seb to a ninja that has not finished higher than 4th in the last five years they aint in the same category |

Double points for season finale among 2014 changes http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2013/12/15339.html F1 chiefs can't find a way to stop brilliant Vettel... changing the rules is ludicrous http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/formulaone/article-2521564/Formula-1-double-points-rule-stop-Sebastian-Vettel-ludicrous.html |

NL1960: Double points for season finale among 2014 changesIts an effing joke! Ironically even if this rule had stood since Vettel's dominance began he would have only missed out on the 2012 title. How or of what use is this rule when Seb is winning half the races |

Let's all spare a thought for one of the true greats of the sport who is presently in a race for his life. Polarizing as he was he still is the face of F1 and is a true icon of the sport. Get well soon Schummie and happy 45th |
