I've no idea. To me he comes across as a spoiled brat when on the radio last few races..."it's not fair" "I want the position" that sort of stuff. Last I checked F1 was still a racing series.... Vettel had a great start and took full advantage. And his race pace was epic. I've no idea if Vettel was in the wrong modes.
I agree- however it all comes from team orders if they agreed to all of this prior to the start I’d be pissed too and now all the radio being live it makes him worse than he might have looked in the 90’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'd be very surprised if the team/drivers agreed to a swap that early on in the race, especially when the leading driver had a decent pace advantage. Surely a swap would really only be applicable if the following driver was at the very least lapping hte same pace in dirty air (therefore suggesting he is the faster driver).
They already full on 2020 development according to German channels Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Agree. Leclerc allowed Vettel to keep the tow,... knowing it would help Vettel pas Hamilton,... but put himself at risk of being passed as well. Lecler did this for the team,... but was given assurances that if Vettel got by him too... it would be reversed. But Vettel got a crazy good start,... and would likely gotten by Leclerc anyway,... and was 1.5 sec ahead before long. Leclerc needed to be told to allow the tow for the TEAM. You are a Ferrari driver first. Ferrari promising to switch back ahead of time is insanity... too many variables.
Except just like last year Ferrari catches up too late and has the championship lost; Mercedes has had this in the bag for 4,5 races now. If Ferrari doesn’t start better next year same thing will happen. I just don’t think they are as professional and thorough as the Germans ; at least not consistently.

Yes the team order contribute to the soap opera. Sometimes I think they should be banned. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The highest Credential is the FIA Picture Badge, followed by lower ones the Journos have Pit /Team Access I would guess...…. See this lady, her husband was Ferrari's Radio Tech Manager.. I spotted her from the photo badge Image Unavailable, Please Login
Something tells me you are not a Vettel fan... And you seem to call yourself a SF fan.... More like a "fan" if you ask me.
It is known [NOT on the record] that the one year extension states he will be assisting LH44, not going for victories. I would have loved for Bottas to take the Championship away from LH44 this year, but that is not what FIA/Mercedes want [On of OFF the record].
" Deutschland über alles " ! Brackley and brixworth are in UK . Binotto will prove you that you are wrong I am sure .
YES! but not the ones with ******............ But this has already been discussed ad nauseam in other threads. No need to re-state the obvious.
