While i tend to agree that he's a tick off Hamilton and vettel, it's only his third race after not getting quite a full off-season with the team, and he's been plopped into a difficult spot of knowing he has to refer to Hamilton at least at first. One things for sure: whatever that 4 races to prove himself quite was, he's certainly showing himself to be worthy of the seat as a #2. That's better than most drivers. And he could become more still.
