@steflotti105 I do agree that it is impressive to finish your first 9 career races on the podium but to be fair Lewis was with a front row team.

Vettel on the other hand started with BMW Sauber (a midfield team) and then went to Toro Rosso (back row team) which he scored heaps of points for them and won his first race with them. The last 2 years Vettel was runner up and World Champion with Red Bull and this year he is dominant which just shows how good Vettel is and how good Red Bull are.

@MetaKnightsKirby of course, webber would have won it twice.2009 + 2010+2011 victories vettel: 20, 2009+2010+2011 victories webber: 6. dream on..

@Xehanor - Well you can have a personal opinion. But you can't just say oh "this guy deserved the world championship more just because".

@Anime998877 It's just my personal opinion alright? lol

@Xehanor - Even if Webber had got past Petrov, Alonso would have won the championship. I don't see how Webber deserved the 2010 title at all. How he managed to lose it is beyond me. Vettel had more wins and pole positions and despite making the most ridiculous errors costing him humongous points (turkey, hungary, belgium) and unfortunate mechanical failures while leading 3 different races costing even more points (bahrain, australia, korea) Webber STILL couldn't beat him!

While I'm not a fan of Vettel in anyway, he clearly deserved the 2011 championship because of his dominance. However, I dont believe he deserved 2010 title... I thought it should have gone to Mark Webber. Webber sadly got stuck behind Alonso and Petrov :(

@neerajmjj I'm saying that it is OBVIOUS that there is a reason, for vettel's victory. of course he had best balanced car for that day. because it's always like that.

[neerajmjj]

@beralder9 What the shit are you talking??? Dont talk in riddles.

[beralder9]

@neerajmjj no way! really?

so what you're saying is that there is a REASON behind vettel's victory...

wow  that's impressive! I thought victories came from the sky... for some magical reason...

so yes vettel won because his car at that moment was better balanced than others.

so the one with the best balanced car wins. wow, that never happened in history...

[neerajmjj]

@beralder9 He only won coz of changing conditions. Like Nico Hulkenburg got pole position in Brazil in 2010 by almost a full second he out qualified others. But race day was bone dry, and obviously got overtaken. Vettel was lucky that it was raining on race day + torro rosso have a better straight line speed which made him win at Monza. He worked hard to win but also damn so lucky

@MetaKnightsKirby - Do you think Red bull favoured Vettel in 2009? Why would they? It was vettel's first year at the team and they had to see how he held up against webber before deciding who was number 1. And in 2009 Vettel beat Webber in almost every category (race wins, poles, fastest laps,) and outqualfied Webber 15 times to 2. Vettel is deservedly red bull's number 1, if red bull favoured webber they would be holding the better driver back, which is stupid..
