Says, "Mercedes engine advantage is putting off fans"

Surely the other teams being shit and not able to catch Mercedes is putting off fans

[Varche]

he wasn't saying anything when Red Bull had such a good package (chassis?) that Vettel (of all people) just walked away from the opposition.

The only way to have close racing with no unfair advantages is to have one engine supplier and one chassis with lots drawn on the grid for which actual car each driver gets. That won't ever happen in F1.

Iv said for a while that Red Bull cars have some sort of advantage when they was 'winning' everything... Im convinced there was cheating happening, I only say this as no-one could catch them and it wasn't Vettel being a superior driver... We'll see what happens in the coming season as to whether he is a better driver whilst with Ferrari. Also seemed strange when Ferrari could get away with a few cheats when other teams couldn't.... especially team orders being broadcast live to the drivers in coded messages a couple of years ago...

The other thing that might be possibly putting off spectators/fans is that the cars no longer sound like F1 cars, they sound shite TBH

Just my opinion though

I expect Geri had a headache, so he had to have a moan about something!

I reckon that's the main reason Vetel oppsed off to Ferrari, and Newey cleared off to design boats.

Ginger monger alert!
