LOL. To challenge some of Schumacher's records he would need to have a comparable level of talent to MS. Bieber is not even close, they are on different planets.Quote:

In my opinion no current team is close to the astonishingly well working team, which Jean Todt built with Ross Brawn, Rory Burne and Michael Schumacher. They were very effective, quite ruthless, reacting well to rule changes, with excellent combination of incredible driver (MS) and a solid one (Rubens) and in the same time Williams depended almost entirely on the powerful BMW engine and McLaren were searching themselves after Hakkinen retired. These factors may never replicate again. In modern times it seems that all teams are highly competitive, serious and ambitious organizations. This makes the results which Vettel achieved last year even more special, because I don't think that the kid had a car as dominant as the Ferrari's all-conquering machines in 2002 or 2004.
He did, no question about it. This year without having 1 second per lap faster car bieber has been exposed.Quote:

As I said, I don't think that the Bull had that kind of an advantage over the rest of the field. And I don't like this ideas of an exposed drivers... was Michael exposed last two years with a Merc, Lewis last year in a Macca, Fernando in a struggling Ferrari or Renault? I don't think so. In different circumstances drivers deliver different results, but when you have been on top of the game, you are obviously no slouch.
I definitely think Red Bull in 2011 was by far the fastest car, easily a sec faster then anyone else, this year will define Vettel much better.
The most important thing a driver needs for either challenging any Schumacher's records or simply getting great stats, is an extremely competitive car and that for many-many years in F1. Because in order to get close, you need a lot of wins/poles per year, even 10+ during seasons. And I'd say 10 wins could be achieved only in a superior car nowadays, in an even playing field they would get spread out.Quote:

MS
