Not to stirr up another how good is Vettel thread, but is Vettel's fourth championship a tainted one after Pirelli's tyre change in Hungary? One can't deny Red Bull has been more dominant after the Pirelli switch than before. Also, Red Bull's closest challenger upto that point, Ferrari, suffered heavily, causing Red Bull to win with even more ease.

 

What do you guys think?

It helped them a lot, but it doesn't matter now.

He led the championship before, and he led it afterwards. Nuff said.

If it wasn't for the tyre change it would be much closer but i still think he would be champion in the end anyway.

How many threads that try to diminish the performances and achievements of Vettel and Red Bull will come up in this forum?

 

I think about 25.

That is exactly what it is, there are threads discussing Pirelli's influence on F1
