    Congratulations to Christian Horner, the Red Bull team and and their two drivers.

    As to whether Vettel is what they are saying or not, it is hard to judge. The car is so much more refined and consistent than the opposition. What we can say is that he is faster than Mark.... well, so far anyway.

    As Kimi Raikonnen was fond of saying, the problem with F1 is that it is often the car that gives the driver a chance at the top spot.

    You could put Hamilton, Button, Alonso, Schumacher, Kimi, and several other drivers into that Red Bull car in place of Vettel, and any one of them could well have been champion this season.

    Vettel is good, yes, and his car is superb. Just watching that front wheel going round you can see how stable and smooth it is, almost as if it represents every aspect of the whole RB car. But is he a genius? Is he any better than the other top ten or twelve drivers? No way of knowing.
