Title: Formula 1 in 2013
Post by: CTG on September 30, 2012, 02:50:26 PM
Pérez in McLaren? With Button? Kind of characterless team. Both of these pipsqueaks are famous for their tyre sparing style...

Checo is good, I like him a lot. He has some potential. I would have preferred to have Kimi back but that was just a dream.

I like Kimi since he's not in McLaren. That's the only team I really hate (from the beginning of my F1 fan era).

McLaren will suck in this season. Both of their pipsqueaks belong to tyre sparing type, therefore they are BORING.

They may be boring, but tyre sparing wins races and titles. Same "oh, he's so tactic" was said about Mika yet he won 2 titles.

Red Bull is always too colorful, I don't really like their paintjob.

Btw go Alonso! Even if I like Vettel a bit better, his last title wasn't really deserved.

Stepped noses are far the ugliest aerodynamical elements I've ever seen.

Btw do you remember this?

I don't understand this Red Bull "scandal": finally we had a pipsqueak who dared to ignore the team's "spare your tyres and let your teammate win" command and showed up something from REAL RACING... Btw Webber was always a crymachine.

Vettel move was stupid and could have easily cost RBR 43 pts.
I don't like team commands regarding "let your teammate overtake you" but I think telling your drivers to secure those 43 pts (no matter who won) is a smart thing to do. It's not like they told the leader to let his team-mate win, the command was plain "don't risk it, secure 1-2". Red Bull had nothing extra to win, and everything to lose with Vettel's move.

Mercedes is a different thing, because Rosberg could have tried to catch Webber for 2º place, which Hamilton couldn't do. RBR had the best possible result, and they wanted to secure it. Mercedes could have gotten a 2-4 but decided to settle with 3-4 to let Hamilton finish ahead of Rosberg.

Command was the same, situations were not. If I had been RBR chief, I would have done the same.
If I had been Mercedes chief, I would have sent Rosberg in a chase for Webber.

People want to see races, not team strategies. As for me, Vettel wasn't unfair at all. Not even stupid.

(If you say so, what do you think about the "stupid" Senna-Prost battles in McLaren?)

Team-mates competing instead of collaborating is definitely stupid, in every team, in every sport, in every country.

Teams are integral to F1, with the paradox of being bound to cooperate with your main rival being part of the deal.

As for Vettel, this incident confirms him as a disingenuous spoiled rascal. As aggravating circumstances, consider the "I'm much faster, let me through" whining with half a race remaining (Rosberg doing the same wasn't so bad due to the reasons Chulk mentioned), or the ridiculous "I didn't do it on purpose" in the press conference. I can't say I am dejected, however; it is good to have someone to root against again  :D

The stronger dog fucks. That's all.

Or do you think that WEB did not switch on every buttons of that spaceship steering wheel for maximum performance, when he saw Vettel is attacking? He was asked to spare the tyres, but when the situation became clear right after VET's pit stop, he tried to defend his position - probably using 100% of his car and skills. But it's obvious that Webber's 100% is not even close to world-class performance.

Rumor has it RBR is not renewing Webber's contract after 2013. This confirms Vettel is a spoiled brat and he does whatever he wants in RBR, without consequences.

Why do I think Vettel will be your next Schumi? :D

(I don't like VET as much as I liked MSC. Alonso is a better pipsqueak, maybe Raikkonen and Hamilton too. Not talking about my absolute favorite Kubica, because he won't ever come back.)

Not likely. I think he is way more talented than Schumacher. But I always find arrogance annoying, whoever it is. That's what I like a lot about Messi, the guy is humble as a man can be. Cristiano on the other hand... well. I would like Zlatan a lot more if he could keep his mouth shut every once in a while.
