Doesn't look like that to me in races (1) and (4).
He's good, I'll grant you, but I think he's less good under pressure than say Button, Hamilton, Alonso and several othersOriginally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

I think Vettel still suffers from the red mists descending sometimes. That also applies to Lewis Hamilton - although his better skill lets him get away with it more often. They will both take big risks, which sometimes don't pay off.
Jenson Button plays the percentage game and won't take any unnecessary risks, so I would say his judgement is much better.
It will be very interesting when we get to Spain. McLaren should have some upgrades but Red Bull will be faster. It remains to be seen whether the Red Bull engines hold up.+50 Xeno Geek Points

The new rules reward 'conservative' driving, which Jensen is very good at.
Lewis however, is a hell-for-leather racer who overtakes half the field, but eats his tyres for breakfast.
Does that make one a better racing driver - that's a matter of opinion - and it certainly isn't Jensen's fault that the FIA changed the rules to suit his style.
But I'd rather have a grid full of Hamilton/Vettel types. Dangerous as it was - their tussle down the pit lane just showed what racers the pair of them are.Comment
