Vettel wins F1 world championship

[gary]

A great season. Vettel becomes youngest ever world champion. 10 polls. 5 wins.

Mark Webber finishes third in the world driver's championship.

While I barrack for McLaren, I really can't feel too bad about Vettel winning. He's got that extra soupcon of talent to squeeze every ounce out of his car and he doesn't whine when things don't go his way.
So good on 'im and congratulations.

not only that but he's strong pace wise at every circuit. There are some circuits that mark just can't deal with. At last nights race his sector 2 times were consistently as slow as the bottom half of the field, always losing 3 to 4 tenths to those around him.

[Exfso (Peter)]

Yep Mark was not up to it the whole weekend really. He does weigh more than Seb, so that may make a slight difference to times as well, all weight is relevant in this sport.

[sejanus (Gavin)]

not six tenths.

[Exfso (Peter)]

Absolutely correct, Vettel was in a class of his own.

Petrov! Alonso is faster than you! Confirm you got the message!

Though I love Ferrari this year has been good for F1

LOL!

Visions of Abu Dhabi children being dragged through Ferrari World
crying, because they really wanted to ride in the yellow roller coaster
car because it is always in front of the red one.
