    Yes, it immediately raises the spectre of Turkey 2010 and the unrepentant interview he gave to the BBC a few days later and suggests that Sebastian is never wrong, kind of narcissistic, and hypocritical with a very short memory. But who would tell him he's wrong? He must be surrounded by yes-men, it's one of those curses of celebrity.

    Red Bull, do seem to reacting badly, Vettel in particular, considering they are highly regarded and the current world champions, I suppose it is difficult to accept that maybe "one is not as good as one thought one was"

    Grow up Vettel, it happen's to the best of us.

    Wonder if this will be be this years version of 2011's Massa vs Hamilton issues? A Red Bull constantly in the wars with a back marker.

    I suppose someone has to battle with the backmarkers, it's Vettels turn this season it seems.

    Probably true, I think he he is a much better observer-commentator than driver.

    I never saw him commentate? Or are you mixing him up with his fellow countryman Karun Chandook?

    It's now more to do with the reaction from the incident. Red Bull clearly won't let it drop and are now starting to look pathetic.

    Bernie gets confused too. He thinks Bahrain is a peaceful paradise.

    So far compared to the first races last year Webbers got 109% of the points he had and Vettels only got 36%. It's a shock to the system but we're only 2 races in, patience is required from Red Bull not what appears to be frustration.

    But Seb has scored more than he did in 2010!
