I respectfully disagree, if Lewis was in the Ferrari he would have passed Riccardo

Vettel is great in a great car, I'm not sure he would be good in an average car

 

[Freddeno]

ok, respect your opinion but dont agree at all

 

[Freddeno]

for me Stroll is responsible turning into vettel having seen it numerous times..

Not really. Its a slow down lap, why is Vettel so close cutting across him?. Lack of awareness from Stroll but the last thing he would expect to see is another car within 6 inches of his car and just plain stupid from Vettel really. He holds his position on the corner and there is no issue.

and? Why is Seb that close on a slow down lap, fucking daft decision

Vettel will likely get a grid penalty if his gear box has to be changed. So enough punishement for him there. Still have to ask why he was there, just because he is Vettel and in a Red Car doesn't mean he has right of way and all drivers must have 360 vision to ensure they keep out of his way.

Looks like a daft move by Vettel to me and I type as somebody who really doesn't care for the sport or it's drivers.

 

[AndyWolves]

It does look like Stoll drifts wide on that corner to me whereas vettel made a more natural turn but yeah he shouldn't be that close. It's avoidable and rounds the weekend off nicely if your a Lewis / Merc fan!

He proved you wrong in 2008 when he won at Monza in a Toro Rosso.

:icon_lol: ouch..

Fair play, he did very well to win but was helped out a lot by the conditions.

 

[Freddeno]

to win in a Toro Rosso you need, earthquake, rain, crashes and more tbf..dont know why you dont rate vettel

Olivier Panis won a GP in a Ligier #justsayin

Well not really. Just the perfect storm to open the field up and then of course drive like a god when others a struggling.
No one can doubt Vettel is a great driver, he has 4 World Titles in the bank. I would question his thinking at times this season such as Baku, the slow down lap today & Singapore 2 weeks ago - It was a move he didn't have to make and could have ruined his title chances, he finishes in the Top 3 two weeks ago and he would have been ahead of Lewis in that race and points and softened the blow for the points loss today that weren't his fault

And lest we forget:

And lest we forget:

Top move he made on the Final lap to claim that as well, destroyed the field....

i think it is down to frustration...anyway, would love to see hamilton vs vettel in an equal car..guess they are about equal race drivers
