Alonso cannot catch Kimi in 6 laps..
Because his car was already faster than 21 of the other driver's cars on the grid?
It helps when he is a much better driver than Webber. I know I can't stand Webber, even before this race, because he has the bset car on the grid but still gets no-where near close enough to challenge for the world championship. Vettel is an amazing driver, there is no denying it. He is exceptional at keeping up his pace, and he also has the best car on the grid. A bit like Schumacher in his Ferrari days.
Yeah I see that. Quality driver, amazing car, brilliant chemistry within the team. That's why I can't comprehend why he'd go to Ferrari -- even if he wants to emulate the previous German legend, he's got the same set-up at Red Bull.
That's exactly the point I'm making, it's like Vettel looked at how much faster his car is and said, "Ok, I'll start from the back... and I'll probably clip my front wing... twice?? ... and maybe even throw in another pit stop to boot; let's see if I can still win this".
I mean, seriously, for everyone comparing Vettel/RB to United, we don't make everyone else look like league two opposition every week.
