I respect what Vettel has accomplished in his Newey designed car, I truly believe they have some very innovative methods to do some things (like get the power down a little earlier coming out of corners) that in combo is pretty close to unbeatable.....but it is not my idea of F1 racing......the model of getting out in front outside of DRS range (a method of passing I do not like), making tires guaranteed to wear out (to create a spectacle) and all sorts of rules and enforcement (thank you Nazi Max) that essentially take the drivers out of the picture in a big way.
What Red bull is, in my opinion, is a rules optimizer...as was said, like a computer programme, no passion, no joy except from the very likeable Mr. Vettel.
I want the Villeneuve banzai racing, the rivalry between Senna and Prost, Lauda and Hunt with cars that every weekend are pushing the edge of technology and driving.
I have said for a while, get rid of most of the aero, modernize some of the rules (e.g. the 13 inch wheels) and just get on with unlimited racing.
...but we got to get Bernie in prison first....
