The evasive FRS


is one second faster than a UTV

They tried to resurrect Senna but because modern medicine isn't where it should be at, they got a Bruno

They win the car show part of the competition.................. oh wait I am being told there is no car show in the competition, they are screwed.

Ok established RBR has dirty tactics. If its easy to see with a public eye, don't you think a professional like Kimi would see this. This is why I'm saying he will not go to RBR.

Ummm. He went to Ferrari though... Them and McLaren are the dirtiest teams in this regard. He's been on both of them.

I don't think that's really much a consideration now. He's getting older, he know he needs the best car he can get. That's going to be Ferrari or RBR right now.

If Vettel was that fast he wouldn't need that extra tenth of second that wing produced, and could have turned it down because he broke his and shouldn't have to take Mark's. Its called Sportsmanship.

Mark didn't need it to win that race.

As for Team Orders see the following:


"Mark, Maintain the gap" Btw mark never passed Vettel

"Fernando, your faster than Fisi. Over take him"

"Roseberg: I can go so much Faster than him if he lets me pass, Brawn: negative. negative, Nico"

"Engineer: Kimi is faster than you, do not hold him up"

"Fernando is on a different strategy, so let him pass you, different strategy"

To hit the glass ceiling a team will put in place, if you are not the #1.

Lets not forget Vettel is the golden boy for Infiniti right now. With financial backing like that, they don't want to market a person who isn't winning. So in hindsight, there's no room for any #2 RBR to shine.

Sportsmanship?!

Seriously?

Leave that to the lower teams. There is a damn championship on the line here.

Oh... and webber was not good enough that day to ignore the calls from RBR and pass vettel. Ignore he did, but he sure wasn't fast enough to pass.

Man.. watching all those just pisses me off. I really hate team orders. Just ****ing let them race!

theheckwithyou

lol obviously you didn't watch the video
the move started at 0:26, vettel covered the inside line. Mark on the outside
0:28 Mark is half is beside vettel on the outside
0:29 Mark LIFTS (you can hear throttle ease up)
0:34 Mark once again Lifts going in to turn 1
0:40 Horner again tells Mark to maintain the gap.

He didn't ignore the call he followed orders.

I don't miss an F1 race...

He couldn't pass him. He tried several time again and again. This is just 1 stupid clip. He was simply unable to pass him. He could have, but didn't get the job done. He sure tried though.

If they REALLY wanted him to keep the gap, should have just told him of some fake issue and turn the engine back. I mean they have Webber turn the engine back, and not vettel. Should they REALLY want vettel to hold the gap, should have told him to turn the engine back. Not that I condone such a stupid move... I want racing.

Waaaay too much $$$$$ on the line. Go to a karting event if you want to see real racing. I am taking a sabbatical from this thread.
