    Yeah I read up on this one yesterday. Interesting how Vettel is unable to change his driving style of carrying a lot of speed into the corners. Senna was like this in that he entered the corner with a lot of speed and sort of jabbed the throttle while in the corner. Of course Vettel's style requires a very stable back end and I bet he takes different lines at many turns. We'll see if they can grow a car around him that will work.

    Frankly its nice to see the team going Mark's way a touch. Time for Seb to have a 'growth' year :)

    hah! true. It's an excellent example of a fantastic F1 driver not being able to perform their best due to the car. We know Seb is a brilliant driver but the car is hindering everything about him. Same for Schumacher the first two seasons.

    Well, more luck than intent, but still good! I think the team is looking at wind tunnel, simulation, and test/race data and saying "Look, the car is simply faster with the B spec exhaust config, even if Seb doesn't like it as much, so we need to go with the faster spec. Seb, learn to drive it!"

    Yes Im sure they have done the best study to gain insight. Time for Seb to show us he can adapt. Im betting he does. Smart driver he is overall.
