Does anyone know why Webber was referring to Vettel as "Michael"?

I think he said "Friend of Michael". Referring to Vettel.

And Vettel should have a title belt that he carries around with him.

That is brilliant, really made me laugh. Seb should definately do this, and then rush the podium if he isn't on it and clear everyone out. We should also get far more candid conversations between drivers behind the scenes. And a women's division!

Oh, and multi21? Work.

The exploding tyres, total worked shoot. Great booking imo.

Grosjean crashing all the time though... thats a shoot I'm afraid.

I thought it might have been in reference to another German who wouldn't let his team-mates race him.

Nah, I don't think Mark means it like that. Same regards the idea it was a 'parking on track' observation. Mark was always very respectful towards and spoke very highly of Michael, he doesn't strike me as a snide person.

I think he just calls Seb Michael because they are friends and let face it - he is mini Schumi. German, ruthlessly driven and hugely succesful. It doesn't have to be a diss!
