Vettel ven he vas told to let daniel pass:D
Vettel may have won 4 world championships but he was in the best car every time and the team was told to favour him over the previous #2 driver (Webber), now he is in an also ran car he is being seen as only a good driver, Daniel is out qualifying him and out racing him. That other German, her Schumacher, would win in just about anything, as he did!
Lets hope Daniel Ricciardo keeps racing the way he is, Hamilton & Rosberg have great machinery, Alonso seems to have some fight back in him, 3rd & 4th in the title should be interesting.
There is - of sorts. Formula E.

Didn't cope so well on his comeback in early Merc days back in the pack. Not just in terms of speed, rather driving with others around him.Quote:

I saw a doco about Jackie Stewart and they asked him to rate the great schumacher, and Jackie said schumacher makes more mistakes over a race weekend than any other world champion in history. He went to state Moss,Senna, Fangio made no where near the amount of mistakes of schuy as most mistakes either killed the driver or wrecked the car.
Don't get me wrong Stewart was not being disrespectful towards schumacher he goes on to say many good things about him. Has anyone heard anymore about the great mans recovery?[/SIZE]
I think all Daniel Ricciardo has proven so far is that Mark Webber was well and truly past his sell by date, no offence to Mark as I think he's a great all rounder and I hope he does well in his new team :)
But I believe once the teams are racing in Europe and the teams catch up with improvements on the cars, we'll see some exciting racing ahead. I'm impressed with Bottas in the Williams so far, Lotus are catching up quickly too.
I think Sebastian Vettel is an incredible talent and shouldn't be dismissed after 3 -- 4 races. After all he's just one four world titles ;)
The late 70's to late 80s turbo F1s were almost exclusively V6 or inline 4s.
I can recall Alfa having a V8 but others might have tried that configuration.
Appears I am in a minority in actually liking the quieter F1 cars, you can attend a GP without sticking your fingers in your ears for a start.
Hear the tyres complaining, hear the radio conversations clearly, all positive.
As to being slower lap times, that isn't down to the engines, they are faster in a straight line, slower in the bends.
My preference is good racing, which so far this year has been the case through the field. Mercedes has done a better job this year and they will probably walk it, but the overall racing is good.
