Red Bull as a group seem to be whiners. Frankly if I was Mercedes, I would consider offering Marussia a sweet engine deal to accidently hit Seb now and then.  ;) Unfortunately it doesn't really matter if the trophies are tainted or not. 20 years from now all anyone will remember is Seb and Red Bull winning.

It's not a balls comparison contest Christian, it's motorsport - where real men accept the breaks for good or bad.  :P
Uncertainty helps keep things right on the edge, sometimes even beyond.  ;)

That's why most teams prefer not to criticise their rubbers supplier.  :D

I just wonder if Red Bull will be able to take it with as good grace as McLaren have this year, if they stumble badly next season.

Red Bull was never questioning the tyres when they were winning. They didn't have any comments in Malaysia regarding the tyres and since Monaco they were moaning why Mercedes was chosen instead of them for the test.

When they are winning there is silence from RBR.
When they are not, they blame everything they can think of to make excuses for the problems.
It can't be our car, drivers or strategy, it must be the tires or fuel or Ferrari!
Helmut has to blame someone or maybe his job as lapdog will be in jeopardy.

I truly hope that the talk of Kimi going to Red Bull is just that, a load of bull. I like Kimi but would have a hell of a problem cheering for him in a Red Bull with Sebastian as a team mate.

Ferrari used to be the same way when the Commendatore was alive. They had the best cars, drivers were expected to win.

Too bad they don't have the balls to hire Kimi.  Really Christian, they aren't that big. :P

That's a pretty lame attempt by Horner to play mind games with the opposition.  I'm not impressed at all.  It's a pretty transparent move in my opinion, which diminishes Red Bull's status in my eyes.  They're hardly rebels.

Red Bull didn't have much of status in your eyes Irisado, probably the best possible reason is they hardly break & an annoying German with more annoying finger keep showing it while winning races  :D

I loved Red Bull when they were unreliable.  It always had me on the edge of seat wondering if the car would break down :D.  Now it's almost bullet proof, on Vettel's side of the garage at least, I'm not so thrilled.....

I'd have more time for their current management style if they'd just admit that Marko gives Vettel protected status within the team.  If they'd just be honest about it, I'd be a bit more forgiving.
