I think that Lotus has been the winner in terms of excitement and the battles between Mercedes, Ferrari, and Lotus have been awesome. Who cares if it's for second or third or even 9th position? Good racing is good racing and if you can't appreciate that then this sport just ain't for you.

Vettel won a race in a Toro Rosso and scored points in a Sauber and was the youngest to achieve both milestones. Haters gonna hate but he's got four titles to his name. If Hamilton and Alonso are so great and the teams they race for are so legendary then why the fuck aren't they winning? Stop blaming red bull for races that bore you and start putting the blame where it belongs... on the competition that continues to fail in stepping up their game.
This! So nice to see comments from people who actually understand the sport.

The problem is that Vettel lacks charisma of some other drivers, he is not perceived as cool, but in terms of pure driving talent he is on par with other legendary worldchampions. To me driving talent matters the most, but I do enjoy watching Kimi, Alonso and Hamilton's for their interesting personalities and tremendous talents who they all are.

Let's not forget that the F1 racing is about constructors championship as much as driver's title, but people tend to get hung up on drivers and their contribution to the overall success.

Congrats to Vettel and RBR! Step it up, competition!
