When people think of Formula 1 driver Michael Schumacher many negative things are said about him. Schumacher expects his teammates to do everything possible to help him win as the #1 driver and Schumi has been known to crash on purpose just to get his way. He has had many controversial victories of his career and it has certainly hurt the sport.
Now Sebastian Vettel who has the cute face with a nice smile, seems to be just as selfish as Schumacher. He was recently quoted as saying that Mark Webber deserved to finish behind him and that he didn't support the team in the past so why should he support him now. These comments are going to leave a nasty taste in the mouths of these drivers and it could be the downfall of Team Redbull racing this year. 2 teams that automatically seem stronger are Mercedes and Ferrari and if Vettel continues to act like a baby and spend too much negative energy on his current situation, it is the perfect recipe for drivers like Kimi Raikkonen, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso to do more.
Perhaps Felipe Massa could do better this season as he is now constantly performing better than Alonso for qualifications. Certainly Fernando Alonso has his own nasty history of not being the friendliest driver. Is this what F1 racing has come to that drivers have to be completely assholes in order to win? It sounds like a nasty atmosphere in the world of motorsport.
Perhaps the classiest guys around are Lewis Hamilton and Mark Webber, maybe Jenson Button too. The rest seem catty enough to be contestants on RuPaul's Drag Race show.
