F1 fans are too quick to write off drivers. It wasn't but a year ago that Rosberg was villified for being too slow in a Williams. Before that, it was Barrachello/Button at Honda. In some cases, the criticism may have been warranted (e.g. Luca Badoer in the Ferrari). Fisichella, a good driver, was also criticized while standing in for Massa in the difficult '09 Ferrari. Many times, it comes down to the right equipment.
With no testing allowed, MS hasn't had a chance to fully develop the Mercedes to his liking. Let's see what happens by mid-season before we give him a gold watch.
