and more of please log in to view this image 's rambling. http://www.independent.ie/sport/oth...ion-vettel-says-red-bull-adviser-3342612.html looks like Webber is a concrete #2 now. my favourite line:
Nah it won't end up like that, it will end up with Helmut Marko shouting at Luca all day with him not saying anything in response. What Ferrari won't tell him though is that it's a full size cardboard cutout of Montemezelo and IRBR also don't bother to tell him either to keep Helmut out of the way for both their safety!
Mark Webber will probably announce his retirement by reversing over Helmut's helmet and driving off whilst giving everyone the real finger.
I've been wondering the same thing El_B. Was Hartstein wielding too much power for their liking by being popular with the drivers or something?
That's a very intuitive comment, DHC. I believe there's also the small matter that Hartstein may appear rather too outspoken for his own good. This can sometimes represent a headache for 'the establishment', who naturally prefer non-maverick personalities less likely to rock the boat. Perhaps this contrasts with Todt's far more reticent, flexible and 'politically aware' approach? Actually, I find it difficult to imagine two personality types being much more polarised.
Are we about to find out that Vettel's success is entirely down to medicinal assistance? Or perhaps bionic engineering? You heard it here first folks...
Coming this fall... "We can rebuild him. We have the technology." "But what about the resource restriction agreement?" "Damnit, you're right. We'll just have to only improve one appendage..." Matt Damon stars as Sebastian Vettel in: The Six Million Dollar Finger
It honestly pains me to know there is no-one out there willing to start a foundation for poor ******s like please log in to view this image
Antonio Felix da Costa (for those of you who don't know, Red Bull protege) has now officially signed on with Arden Caterham to compete in the full FR3.5 season next year. He is expected to battle with Kevin Magnussen (son of Jan, Mclaren protege) for next year's title. Might have to start watching FR3.5...
Raikkonen 'learns nothing in simulators' apparently. So the lovely new one Enstone have recently finished will only be used by Grosjean. I particularly like the bit about Raikkonen being quicker on his first lap around Austin with no prior experience, despite Grosjean having put in 100's of laps on the simulator.
