Can't be doing his ego any good. Everytime he wins a race he now gets Boo'ed on the podium.

To be fair I'm not a big Vettel fan, I actually find him to be one of the most boring drivers to watch and I do think that there is some merit in others claims that the cars pace makes him look better than he actually is (but that's just my opinion).

With regards to the panto antics at the end, I don't like boo'ing as it's just plain disrespectful and childish....

*however I have no objections to disgruntled Hamilton/Button/Alonso fans throwing cold frankfurters at the boring kraut when he's stood on the top step of the podium!!!

vettel can only win from the front.
his "car" is lightening quick, illegal map, owe sorry that was last years cheating.
he is a stuck up aragent p###k
carnt overtake.
gets protected by redbo11ocks even when its his fault.

I would so love to see Hamilton, Alonso, Kimi and vettel in the same car.
I could not prodict the top 3 but vettel would be last.

has anyone else noticed over the years that when Webber is next to the git on
the grid he for some unknown reason has a problem getting off the line, funny that.

as for boing him hay it was the best part of the show.

I rate him as a quick driver just not sure on his abilities as a racing driver. Unfortunately motorsport is all about the quickest driver car combination and in that aspect he is No1.
But this is probably why he and the team put so much effort into qualifying because they know his stengths and weaknesses.

I still don't like him though (just my opinion):D

vettel has raw pace BUT he will NEVER be a great like,
Senna,Alonso,Shumi,hakkinan ETC who could pass anyone anywere on the track.

Being an arrogant **** as you put it.....means that he probably couldn't give a feck about peoples opinions. His sole goal in life is to be a multiple world champion and everything else.....well he'll worry about that when he's old.

What would you rather........Being popular or being known as No1.

Whatever you think of the boo-ing, I think the reprimand and 10-place grid drop given to Webber for hitching a lift is taking the piss-

The part that I found weird is that Mark gets a penalty but what about Alonso, after all he allowed Mark to be carried on his car.

Unconfirmed accounts of the FIA reprimand meeting go something like this apparently:


Jean Todt: "Fernando, do you understand how serious and dangerous zis' kind of thing is?"

Alonso: "...Que?"

Jean Todt: "and Mark, zis' is simply unacceptable, no?"

Webber: "Give two fucks...."

Jean Todt: "Excuse' moi??"

Webber: "Oh I'm sorry mate....GIVE TWO FUCKS!!! Now where's you're dunny' I'm touching cloth here..."
