So, if Vettel won his championships with Newey designed chassis. He's not a worthy champion?
How about Prost, Mansell, Hill, Villeneuve, Hakkinen? They've all won with Newey's car back in 90's.
Like I said in many other posts, he is part of the RBR success, perhaps in quite significant percentage. But I don't get why we need to dis-credit Vettel's effort? He managed to get the most out of the car.
Yes he drove away into the sunset and have several comfortable wins. Don't forget the effort contributed by the 600+ people from Milton Keyes, and impeccable team effort with error-free pitstops, and a working strategy. Even with the randomness of Pirelli tires, RBR and Vettel still managed to win three consecutive champions.
Again, not a Vettel or RBR fan. But I don't think they got the credit they've deserved.
Funny thing said by Horner a few weeks ago. Several years ago people think RBR is just a partying team and not being serious. Now they got serious and starts winning, they're being criticized again. Well, its hard to please everyone.
