[XenForo]

@Ben Herbert Wanna race for Ferrari?

 

[Milos]

If I have time, I could. I do still have the 2014 template, so it shouldn't take too long.

I couldn't find a decent Vettel helmet (If you want that), so unless I can have some help, it won't change, sorry.

Just need confirmation from @Ben Herbert if he wants to join the team.

Well, after signing Vettel over so much more talented drivers, this would be the second disappointment I've had from Ferrari
It must be because we haven't chosen their engine for another year..

I dunno, but 4 world championships, 39 wins, 45 poles and 66 podiums does mean the guy is has a lot of talent. And nobody can play the Newey card, because Vettel didn't sweaty win, he dominated victories most of the time.

I think Hulk would have done better in a faster car. Don't forget Red Bull was the fastest car in those years, almost like Mercedes 2014 at the end of 2013.

So why did Vettel win 13 races in 2013 when his team mate didn't win any? Same goes for the 11-1 in 2011.

I bet you rate Schumacher a lot between 2000 and 2004. Vettel did the exact same thing but seems to get no credit from anyone for it.

The RB was 0,5-1s faster than the rest of the field tbh. Webber is just a bad driver too (or he got old, he lost the skills)
Compare Vettel to Ricciardo. Ricci was getting mediocre results in the midfield-ish Toro Rosso, while Vettel was winning in his fast car. They get the same car, and bang, all of a sudden Ricci is better.

Schumi was just good. Compare him to Barichello. Rubens was very good in the midfield Stewart. Schumi was also very good in the Ferrari of '99 (and much better than Irvine). They get the same car and Schumi dominates Rubens for those 4 seasons.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Vettel was the master of high downforce, low torque, and doesn't suit the new low downforce high torque formula we are in now. You are underrating one of the best drivers on the grid massively.

 

[Milos]

nope, that's just your opinion on Vettel.
In the new era of formula 1, everyone started from zero. So everyone had to struggle with the same issues of getting used to the new cars.
--
but hey we're going too off-topic. Let's just agree that we don't agree on this one.

 

[Jimlaad43]

You've used the same weak argument every Vettel hater uses, and ignored the strong argument the other way.

--

But yeah, lets move on.

 

[oldwolf]

Anyone for Toyota?

Comfirmed, cheers.

Oh, discussion over before i could jump in

 

[Aidan Keranen]

i just think Vettel is a d*** and I will happily shove that damn finger where the sun don't shine.

Same, but I do at least appreciate that he is one of the most successful drivers ever and deserves to be respected and acknowledged for it.

ah, while I could agree, you see I am an Australian, and we don't forgive him at all. Good on Daniel for showing him how to drive

 

[Jimlaad43]

16 drivers so far. Come on, lets try and find some more people!

In other news, I've done the team summaries too.
