I rate webber in the top 5 in F1 at the moment. (just!)

Not bad considering the high caliber of drivers in the field.

wait, are you serious? top 5?

Sebastian Vettel

Lewis Hamilton

Fernando Alonso

Michael Schumacher

Jenson Button

Robert Kubica

In no particular order, theres six random names that i would say are not just slightly better... but guys who would, have and will whoop his ass. Just because he's sitting in a fcuking missle doesnt suddenly make him a superstar.

And we're not even counting guys like Rosberg, who i believe if given the opportunity to throw around a RedBull around, would do to him what SebVet just did.

You are kidding aren't you?

Schumacher is so far past it he can barely remember what it was. He regularly gets hosed by Rosberg.

Button gets hosed by Hamilton & almost everyone else.

Kubica has half an arm missing.

Webber gets done in qualifying basically because he is too heavy. Hopefully this year the rules changes make the drivers weight less of an issue. In any case Vettel is a bag of feathers so who really cares.

[Marlin]

Ivan.... get off the friday beers mate!!!! Button and Schu in your list.... LMAO!

[N1GTR]

Where did you order them from?

[ctjet]

[N1GTR]

That's too easy, the ones I wanted weren't available from shops here so I bought from UK.

Go RBR;

[JAS-25T]

list of drivers not there in the same test session.....

Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa, Sebastian Vettel and McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton.

[ctjet]

So i've put a twenty down with my mate that webber makes a horrible start off the grid for the season opener. Have great seats to watch that shit go down too!

Damn bahrain holding everybody up with their crappy country. We could have been racing this weekend in Melbourne!! Not exactly the weather for it though, but how good is a wet race around here!! Massa into all the walls and other cars, that shits funny as hell

thank god someone mentioned it. the difference between vet and webber is easily put down to the weight penalty webber carries. it's probably less that meaning that if the weights were equal webber would have most often qualified in front of vettel. think of all those sessions where it was a bees dick between them. like a few hundredths of a second. and then remember webber carries more weight every lap he's out there.

dundan! you're a bitter old bastard these days. webbers a champ. I'd like to think I' enjoy watching him regardless of where he's from. but the fact is he is an aussie and a good bloke and he can steer.
