    Who was his team-mate again ?
    And what did he have to say about Mike ?

    Circumstances I say

    Speed was just fine.
    Lets not confuse talent with attitude.
    But not a Vettel, no.

    Gee, you're forgiving. Are you like this with all drivers?

    Most professionals, yes. F1 drivers almost universally.

    The ones that had daddy pull them up on Pa's name and contacts or the ones showing their "assets" in magazines to get rides with marginal talent are the ones that grate on me.

    Michael Andretti was an exception. Unser junior too.
    Nico too. He could be a WDC in the right car.
    The rest not so much.
    Kyle Petty and Pickit Jr especially.

    I hope you're referring to Danica solely. The thought of a male F1 driver showing his assets in a magazine is haunting.
