Perhaps you'd care to rationally critique this rather than a simple rebuttal with no substance?
Why should he waste time refuting such a garbage post anyway?

"He has not won a top line single seater race"

Since Mercedes plucked Wehrlein from F3 (where he was a regular winner), he raced in DTM and a season at Manor in F1. When and where was he supposed to win a 'top line single seater race' (whatever that is supposed to mean, it's a very vague description)?

"lucked into a DTM title"

This is another rubbish take. Luck had little to to with it and it wasn't even that close in the end. He accumulated 19 more points than any other driver over 18 races (and the gap was even greater when he clinched the title). That's how you earn titles.

"didn't spank Haryanto as he should have"

And how should he have 'spanked' Haryanto? They were close in qualifying, but Wehrlein was much faster in races and regularly finished 30+ seconds ahead of a more than competent driver in Rio Haryanto. That's more than you should expect from any driver in F1 these days.
