The following is taken from www.formula1.com today:
I think Vettel is one of those drivers where you see him and think, he's going to be world champion and as you say, it's all about doing it where it counts so i take another quote from the official site: The Current points/championship standing:
Vettel is ahead of Webber in the same equipment his first Season in the team but as for Webber not being beaten by his previous team mates: 2002, Minardi: His team mates was Yoong (and Davidson sat in for 2 races also). This is not an impressive stat, my mother is faster than Yoong and Davidson. 2003, Jaguar: Pizzonia and Wilson - no further comment required. 2004, Jaguar: Klien - Wasn't bad. Webber did beat him by 4 points having had a year experience and having been at Jaguar and settled in for a year there. 2005, BMW-Williams: Heidfeld and Pizzonia. Heidfeld was beating Webber 28-24 but was injured for the last 5 races of the season and Webber got 12 points in those 5 races and ended the season 36-28 to Webber. Pizzonia.. err... no comment on him. 2006, Williams: In Rosberg's first season he ended up only 3 points short of Webber. This impresses me! (About Rosberg, Not Webber who at this point had 4 previous years experience in F1 and 1 year experience in the Williams team!) 2007, Red Bull: DC is a good presenter... Enough said? No? DC 14 points, Webber 10. 2008, Red Bull: DC's retirement year, lines up job with BBC, scores 8 points. Webber mashes him with 21 points but let me tell you how good DC is/was... He is a good presenter! 2009, Red Bull: Current: Vettel is beating him in his first season at the team. Prediction: Vettel will beat him by the end of the season. Wager: I'll but £50 on it. |
Did anyone take my wager for 2009?
Here is an update on Webber's career..
2009, Red Bull:
Vettel 2nd with 84 points in his first season with the team, Webber managed 4th with 69.5 points.
2010, Red Bull:
Vettel Champion. This is one of the best ever F1 cars in comparison to it's rivals for the season... Webber 3rd... Not bad for a number 2 driver

Can I see his retirement letter soon please?
