I'm not really a Vettel fan, even though I like him really much, I just always prefered Alonso, Button and last but not least Kimi, but there's lots of hatred and propaganda against him, and I honestly would say that in a Mercedes he'd give Lewis headaches, but it looks like Ferrari and him will have to go seperate ways at the end of the season.

Be fair to Vettel, compared to last season he’s making fewer mistakes. Oh hang on a minute....

He'd be certifiable if he went to Ferrari. I don't think there's much hatred and certainly not a lot of 'propaganda'. Unfortunately Sebastien has shown himself to be fallible in recent times. But I think we've been here before.

If I was him, I would move to McLaren. They experienced their best post-2012 season and I think with a Mercedes engine they can close the gap to the three top teams.

And the one thing that is 'typical' is that the driver in the best car is not going to want to move anywhere else..... and why should he? To give someone else 'a turn'? |

He doesn't suit the V6s, and it allowed drivers like Ricciardo to rattle him. Not dissimilar to when F1 went to grooved tyres and thinner cars and Damon was off the boil. Managed the odd good result (usually in the wet, when the grooved tyres weren't a thing), but his driving style wasn't adapatable. Vettel when things align ups his game to a level others can't match. Vettel when things aren't quite right, he becomes above average and that's about it. |

Ironically, if Leclerc continues to beat him regularly, Vettel may be around for a while, as a solid rear gunner for Ferrari. That's if he can accept that.
Re: Hamilton, with him being close to the cusp of becoming the most successful driver in championships, I would doubt that he would feel proving himself to those who feel he hasn't already would be attractive, all the more so because we look to be losing this year. |

Typical what? Typically reasonable opinion?

There have been some bold claims so far:
All cars except for Mercedes are crap. Drivers in crap cars should be dropped. Drivers in good cars should move to crap cars. The majority of the paddock is Xenophobic. I'm interested to see where we go with these? |

Don't just pick on Vettel, all the drivers will have their careers affected by this pause of racing and if it goes on long term their will be major changes before racing resumes in what ever form it is in when that happens. I made a prediction maybe a year or more past that it is quite possible Verstappen won't win a WDC title before he retires and this pause is making that prediction look even better at the moment.
