I think we have a team thread for congratulating RB & stuff...

Generally I don't care about what people say. I have to be clear with myself. When everything goes well, people celebrate you, when you make mistakes people criticize you.

Congratualations to Seb and the guys at Red Bull. Exceptional.

Congratulations Newey, a bloodline of cars that will go down in history as some of the finest machines to ever be designed in F1.

Yep Vettel and RBR has been excellent. The better car 2012 McLaren could not stop them either. Even with the best car, it is possible to choke at the end of season when the pressure is up as recent history shows.

Vettel and Alonso has been in a league of their own in F1 for a while now. There is a reason that they keep being selected as the top two drivers in F1 for 4 years in a row. I suspect this year will not be different and will the 5 years in a row...

Red Bull clearly has the best team structure out there when it comes to designing and developing their cars throughout the season. I think the other teams (Ferrari in particular) should look at Red Bull to see how things are done.

The best driver in the best car of the best team won. Now that driver and the team are rightly all-time greats, and it is proper to give credit were credit is due. Amazing times.

Vettel had to drive the car to get the results so well done to him - he's done what needed to be done.

But if any of the Vettel fanboys think that there aren't another 5 drivers(*) on the grid that couldn't have done the same thing in the same car then they're wearing very rose tinted glasses.

(*) Alonso, Hamilton, Raikonnen, Button, Rosberg

Well, I think you can add Massa to that group as well.
That is not to belittle Vettel in any way, but in a good car with a stable rear end Massa could've been very good IMO.

Still what Vettel/RedBull done is amazing.

Unfortunately, 54 posts from 3 members had to be deleted for petty bickering and juvenile name calling. This forum is better than that so they're having an enforced calling off period. Now lets get back on topic....

We've seen an incredible team/driver/car dominance in the last 4 years. Whatever your allegiance there's no denying that each element of team/driver/car has been perfect, that deserves praise and celebration.
