he did saw vettel's potential


I think it took zero miracle to see Vettel got potential AFTER he got that drive for Sauber. Marko just lucked that Vettel was a real deal - So far Seb is the only Marko's sucess.

Compaired to Peter Sauber in spotting talents Marko is an amateur.

Are we seriously arguing about Marko's oppinion? Marko, who is well known for his "precise" farsightedness when it comes to drivers abilities?


Well I did say...

I think it's stupid not to consider McLaren as a main rival along with Ferrari because they've shown they can build good cars and Button has shown he can win the championship.

‘Lewis will naturally bring performance to Mercedes. Fernando Alonso, Lewis and indeed Jenson are very strong threats for next year.’

Horner himself named Jenson as a main rival at the beginning of the 2012 season.

And rightly so, I'd say. He won more races than Webber this year.

That is exactly what i'm not doing, i'm including everything. At the end of 2011, Hamilton had lost more points in total across the two years than Button had through unreliability/operational errors. The gap is larger over three years than it is over the last 7 months. As I've previously said, Hamilton lost significantly more points in 2010 thorugh this, Button lost marginally more in 2011, and Hamilton has lost a tonne more in 2012. That you still equate JB's admittedly unfortunate 2011 with Hamilton's much greater points loss in 2010 and 2012 is just a massively facile argument.


Err, your back-peddling. I responded to a post of yours where you specifically referred to 2012 performance, now your saying "I meant everything"... :well:
Regarding your claims of what I claim, respond to a post in which I said it. Good luck, because that's not my claim at all.
