Re: F1
Actually, no: He has actually won less than half of the races so far this year. It's his consistency that makes the difference. True, he has won more races than anyone else; - but just as importantly, with the exception of his DNF at Silverstone, he has scored good points in every race, and has never finished lower than 4th.ChesterfieldJohn wrote:haveabeer wrote:No one could live with the Red Bull today great drive by Vettel think he was cruising
Is that a summary that fits every 'race'?

Re: F1
I'm a great fan of F1 and wait eagerly for each race. I had been really looking forward to the race today, this track usually produces exciting races but I was disappointed today - I thought it was too predictable from the start. :
However, enjoyed the interviews on BBC yesterday at Qualifying.

Re: F1
I found it a very disappointing race. I enjoyed the part before the race where David Coulthard and Lewis went round the old Spa track and they interspersed it with black and white film of an old Spa race with, I think Fangio winning. It looks as though no-one is going to stop Vettel - a real pity. I was hoping someone would be able to challenge him. I can't say I find him a very likeable character at all - my opinion only!

Re: F1
It was a very lackluster race yesterday, especially as Spa is normally very exciting. And to think I got up early after my night shifts especially to watch it. The qualifying was far more entertaining than the actual race.
I agree that I don't think anyone can catch Vettle this season. Love him or not (not for me), there is no denying he is a very talented driver in a very talented team, although I do wonder if he would do so well if the team treated him and Webber the same (again, just my own opinion!)
