while standing the amount of pressure in the Ferrari factory…If Seb moved teams, he’d start to do well again, in a more relaxed way.How you can blame not winning titles on alonso in 2010-2014 is beyond me.To win titles you need 1) car performance, 2) reliability, 3) strategy, 4) driver performance, 4) alone is not enough.Vettel had a crappy season, like he seems to have when a young teammate comes along, but to be behind Kimi, Norris or Perez is just not where I would put him on my list. Either both were bad, or both were good. I don’t. Thats his driver profile. I don’t like to belittle his achievements, 4 in a row is still something to be proud off, but it is looking more and more like the car was the real star. In 2020, Raikkonen will become F1’s most experienced driver, overtaking Barrichello. But then you have a place where they make strategies errors like those we saw this year? Have your say in the comments.Outranked by Bottas is the ultimate comedown for a multi champion.Bottas is a fast quality driver who makes makes less mistakes generally, throughout his career, then Vettel, who has always mistake prone.The speed difference between drivers might not be 1 full second from fastest to slowest, so the best way to rank drivers is mistakes, and nobody, not Rogro or even Maldonado has made as many mistakes as vettel.Your comment sounds like flamebait, but when I considered it, I have to agree. In the case of a less experienced driver, you would expect that the risk of a mistake might be higher or strategy management might be weaker, since those draw on skills that a driver needs to acquire with experience and practise.If anything, it is implicit in the article that at least part of the criticism for Vettel is not just in terms of the number of mistakes, but the number of mistakes which he is making as an experienced driver – which would seem to suggest that experience is implicitly being taken into account.At the same time, there will also be a certain age effect for some drivers as well, taking into account the general historical trend for driver performances to drop off after a certain age. He too should be remembered as the lightning-quick young upstart in his early days at McLaren, a man who won the 2007 championship from under Hamilton and Alonso’s noses and the driver who took two wins (and second in the 2012 standings) in a relatively unfavoured Lotus across the 2012 and 2013 seasons. Vettel had some pretty steady races in Baku, Monaco, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Russia and Mexico. He managed 22 wins in those seasons, 19 of which came when Mercedes were dominant, hence the fact that he “loses” seven wins once they are adjusted. He cant cut these errors out. For Sauber in 2018 he wiped the floor with Marcus Ericsson, scoring 39 points in a car that was in the middle of the midfield at best, including a trio of seventh place finishes to end the year. It has not dawned to him yet that he is no longer WDC material. His first win, in 2003, came in bizarre circumstances as he was belatedly awarded the Brazilian GP after a timing error at the race’s end, but his most successful years came as he returned to his old team (then bought by Renault) to partner Fernando Alonso.Alongside the Spaniard, he was an able number two, winning another two races and finishing fifth and sixth in 2005 and 2006.

It would be unfair to let 2018 and 2019 tarnish his years of brilliance but there is a large variation from his high to lows which other greats do not have. He imho has never had racing (another driver) skills (on WDC level). A multi title winner. Then there is the Vettel level bad. Here’s why I don’t think the guys mentioned before deserve to get higher than Seb:– Kimi did OK mostly, but in a team where there’s no pressure and with a good enough car he only needed to keep it clean. So what role could Vettel play? A strong second to Hamilton in Mexico, which cold easily have been a win had Ferrari’s strategy been sharper, gave further indication that Vettel had mastered the SF-90 by the end of the year.But the vexing question for Vettel remains just how can he cut out the costly errors which have come to define his past few seasons at Ferrari?What’s your verdict on Sebastian Vettel’s 2019 season?
I’d actually have Vettel higher, only just slightly behind Leclerc but that’s just me.I think just about every driver ranking has had Kimi comments.
