    Agreed with this latest rant - seemed gratuitous to me, he apologized for this first rant (the collision with Kimi - heat of the moment) but the second rant about Kvyat - I feel was fully justified...

    It's just frustration. Happens to everyone. I can understand where he's coming from. 2 races in a row he got crashed into, and he's desperate for a clean race.

    Having said so, this is one of the reasons i prefer a radio ban

    He has always been a bit of a whiner IMO.

    Where does all this whiner crap come from? Just because a driver gets pissed he's a whiner? They're all whiners!

    Ricciardo=Big Grinning Whiner
    Rossberg=Big Ginormous Whiner
    Alonso=Big Sulking Arrogant Whiner
    Hamilton=Whiner Playboy
    ... the list goes on...

    If you're definition of getting pissed off at an incident in the heat of the moment or complaining about something that happened after the race is whining... than who in any professional sport is not a whiner. Gimme a break.

    Vettel says this now - Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel admits he would have tried the same daring manoeuvre that Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo attempted towards the end of the Spanish Grand Prix, if their positions had been reversed. (Formula1.com)


    SO why the crying like a spoilt child. Needless.

    I think Vettel is a much more likeable character outside of the car. Remember a few years ago when he and Alonso went at it, *****ing about each other in Silverstone? :D.

    Well, have you even said something stupid in the heat of the moment and later regretted it?

    Everything looks easier from an armchair.

    Perhaps because the view on replay when you can see how it looked for the other driver is a completely different view than when you're sitting in the car in front doing 200 mph? Just a guess.

    Its racing and was by far not the worst attempt at a pass Vettel has been subject to. Pressure from above Im guessing as it was hardly 'dangerous'. I applaud Ricci for attempting and actually making an effort to gain the position. We all ask for that not complaints about a move that hardly deserved review or caused anyone harm. I fully stand by Vettel as a whiner in that instance. He should have just let it go and focused on driving just like Ricci did.

    Ricci's comment says volumes about Vettel LOL! 'Typical Seb' When a competitor says that then the whining reputation is sealed. Especially after having lived in the same team with him. No question!

    And when Schumacher turned up I feel HE put a lot of pressure on the engineers to deliver a good car

    The pressure Vettel is under is not from Ferrari but himself trying to prove that the 4 WDC's he has managed were not just due to Adrian Newey.

    So far I think he is showing how good Adrian is ... and yeah, surely that is causing him sleepless nights.
