He's right though, Vettel has made errors or at least misjudgements which is how Ferrari's big cheese has framed this.
Of course it's the top boss' role to call it as it is especially when most of the media is blaming reliability of the car as the reason for Lewis/Merc's easy ride in the 2nd half of the season.
If I wrote the huge cheque that Vettel collects I would certainly be unhappy with some of his on track standards.
Perhaps if more top bosses spoke up publicly about poor driving standards, rather than attacking stewards decisions, we might see their drivers cleaning up the act.
