lolwut?
i like vettel and have supported rbr since they first came out, but seriously? one championship and he's going to be better?
Schummi was a great not only because he drove fast, but because he could develop the car to what he wanted and make it brilliant in all circumstances....
Webber is the only other person on the grid that could compare in that aspect...
Vettel still has a long way to go before he could be mentioned in the same sentence as Schumacher...

As for someone else saying this was the greatest formula 1 season ever? In the last 5 years or so sure, but before that not a chance...

I'm sooo glad red Bull didn't issue any team orders in Brasil to let Webber win that race. To be honest, I was originally pissed at them for letting Vettel win in Brasil, but he clearly was the faster driver, and the decision to not favor any driver worked our perfect imo..

The highlight of Abu Dhabi for me was Vettel's 1st pit stop exit when he just barely made it out in front of one of the Renaults (can't remember exctly who).. After that it was 'easy' sailing to the win and the championship.

I concur! Unfortunately we can just speculate on talent. We won't know until the new cars get their rhythm going.

I also think Fred and Hams both have another championship potential in them. But will the cars (and their egos) let them?

Vettel is the fastest F1 driver in the world today, 10 pole positions in one season, I think thats a record, not even schumacher accomplished that with the legendary ferrari when he was Vettel's age.

The only thing that cud slow down Vettel now is a major Crash, as happened to Berger and Lauda, and many others. If he can continue his pace without any mishaps then all should be good.

What about the Hulk??

Are you sure that Schumacher was driving for Ferrari at 23? Wasn't he still at Benetton?
Might be wrong but I think he won his 1st Championship at 25, with Benetton in '94 too.

Well, youre correct, but remember Ferrari is Benneton. They bought the team over lock stock and driver, thats how they started winning races again.

Rookie Nico Hulkenberg lost his Williams seat for 2011 season but is suspected to get a drive from another team next year. The 23yr old in his first season snatched pole in Brazil and finished the season 14th in a 27 driver grid with 22pts.
