After I watched Rush I've gotten back into Formula-1 racing, downloading all of the races right after they're uploaded. I came across this on youtube. ....and his car is damaged here.

LOL.....Oh Furbs come on. Look at that kid go. How many places does he make up in twelve mins. after getting smoked by someone.  :o:

I use to drive an F-1 sim all by myself crashing all the time so that's why I'm probably so buggo over it. They are fun when you're trying to do better times or catch the AI cars.

Sorry Richie, i thought i was looking for a specific moment in the vid.

I think he's a good driver, people used to say he couldn't overtake and only lead from the front but he's proven time and again he can overtake. He does have the best car but he's light years ahead of his team mate Webber and you don't win the F1 championship in a mediocre car. He comes across as a nice guy in interviews one to one which is why I felt the boo's he got on the podium at several races quite childish. It's not his fault he's a talented driver driving a fantastic car designed by Adrian Newey - arguably one of the best F1 car designers of all time. I would like to see Vettel go to another team and see if he can emulate what he's done at Redbull, if he does then I think he will be remembered as one of the greats.

He wouldn't because he wouldn't have the car to do it in...That Redbull is leagues in front of anything else and tbh I think F1 is become very boring because of it...You don't even have to watch the quals to know its on pole and if the redbull is not on pole he will win the race just through downforce alone..

 

As much as I do not like Hamilton hes a talented driver and that situation alone backs up my claim in regards to its the car and 'some' of the driver..Look what happened at Mercedes, winning everything then they changed some important design features in house and ON the car and now its absolute shy*e...Im really hoping there move to Renault will improve the F1 we have atm..

 

I'm not taking anything away from Vettel..Hes a world class racer no doubt but don't forget the design is one thing. How the car is set up is another SO what I would like to see is the drivers swapping teams for a couple of races

winning 4 titles at such a young age is without doubt testament to ability and skill but it is a little boring having a single driver that dominates like this, it becomes predictable, last time when Shumaker was doing it, I was put off F1 and only briefly had my interest rekindled now Vettel is killing it for me again.

I agree 100%. I think it would be great if he would sign on to a lesser team then climb up again..That would really be something. I think he has a chance to beat Schumachers 7 championships. He's only 26. I wish it were more popular here in Canada. Believe it or not I think I remember my mom watching Monoco one day when I was just a little punk so it would be her that got me into it. She always did have great taste  :)

He and Kimi Räikkönen should team up on a lesser team. Vettel does a good Kimi imitation  :)

Here you can see the full class of an sebastian vettel:

 

 

He isn't only fast in a good car. Take a look at his full career.

 

He won 18 of 20 races in the Formular BMW Series. Same cars for all drivers in this series.

 

Youngest F1 driver who wins a GP. With 21 years in an inferior Toro Rosso. ;)

 

I see him at the "Race of Champions" in germany Düsseldorf with Michael Schumacher in one team. Very impressive!!

I can't stand Vettel, Alonso, Schumacher and most of the F1 drivers. I can only cheer for Kimi and Vebber for different reasons.

But above all I hate Formula 1:

 

1) it's a world of ostentation and waste of money. Just look at the ticket prices.
2) too much electronic in those cars that are always under the eye of engineers and they are going to act accordingly. It's mostly the car and not the pilot (Adrian Newey is awesome).

3) Mister "Greed" Ecclestone is removing from the schedule all the best historic circuits, in favor of those filth designed by Hermann Tilke and because of safety reasons pilots can't do real mistakes since the circuits allows them to return on the track.
4) too many random and poor rules.

5) it's an hypocritical sport

Many years ago I got interested in NASCAR and I haven't changed my idea: that sport universe is awesome, the drivers are really "human" and the races are exciting. Just look at the TV advertising: some are hilarious.
I like V8 Supercar too.

I thought we were talking about French bottled water for a start.

So, this is a man that drives automobiles, is it?

I think Kimi  Raikkonen is leaving Lotus so if he teams up with Vettel that would be fun although as said before it would be more exciting on a lesser team. If Vettel went over to Lotus with Kimi.
