He is killing it at red bull why leave

[ALO]

ALO is cool with that would be nice to see them race side by side

[Giallo 550]

He's the only likable person on that entire team. I love how he has exposed Vettel for the fraud I always knew he was.

lol.. spot on. :thumb

[Nova]

Yea, why slam Vettel, no one here really knows the man.
As for the topic, well, we dont need him, so....

[Alonsomaniac]

To be honest, of all current other team drivers, Daniel is the only one I see really fitting in with Ferrari. He is a guy who could become a real Ferrari man in time.

[Aberracus]

Vettel is unlikable, so let's slam hi, :) and yes Ricciardo has really put the super champion in his place.
I love it.

[Alonsomaniac]

Vettel is a good driver of course.......although he is not showing that very much lately :nana , but a Ferrari man?? Never! Brrrrrrr.........:lol

[Stormy]

Well if Daniel keeps his form in Red Bull i don't see why he wont drive for Ferrari.
But not next year, i think from driver's aspect everything will be the same next year.

[Senna4Ever]

Sorry wrong thread ... deleted and put onto right place ...

Not until his name gets pronounced properly...then he'd be welcomed as an Italian driving for Ferrari! We do not need Mr Vettel, anyway, ever.

Australian driving for Ferrari.

[Nova]

Ferrari wont sign him, if he stays good, RB will offer him enough to stay, especially
if they stay faster...than us

OK you win, but he does have Italian heritage and an Italian name, but the correct Italian pronunciation would make it feel better. But it's not going to happen IMO. Cheers!

I have seen and heard all I have needed to in order to decide that I never want to see him in a Ferrari.

Just from curiousness, can you name 3 sensible reasons why Vettel shouldn't never drive Ferrari?

[Giallo 550]

I can't provide any reasons why he should not never drive for Ferrari, but I can provide a few salient reasons why I don't want to ever see him drive a Ferrari.

The primary reason is raw talent. Fernando ALMOST beat him in '12 with a vastly inferior car and Ricciardo is currently spanking him around. He is not the cream of the crop. He also has a major attitude problem. He has repeatedly been disrespectful whether it's cursing on the podium, or talking about visiting Senna's grave to complain about his nephew IMMEDIATELY AFTER he clinched the championship. Maybe one day he will man up or grow up, but even if he does, he will still be a paper champion.

[Cozza]

You'd hate me. I just call him Ricky :-P

I can not deny whatever you mentioned but don't forget even Fernando was one of the biggest cry babies during his first stint with Renault. He matured later & has become one of the Ferrari greats. Maybe Vettel will change if & when he is ready for Ferrari

[wisepie]

Dead right, mate!! No offence but I'm just too much of an Italophile to let it go!! I know there are a lot of Italians in Australia and I guess Ricky is the man for them! I'll drink to that so cheers.

This is only my 5th season watching Formula 1, so I can't really compare Fernando's behavior to his. I just find it amazing how obnoxious Vettel is compared to his peers.

[Ed Harley]

It is a matter of perspective.

No hes the Aussie that the Aussie Williams and McLaren fans and Ferrari haters can support.
He chose to drive for aus, he can go jump. stay a bogan.

He was born in Australia and lived his whole life in Australia what nationality do you want him to be? I have Italian heritage but I wouldn't call myself Italian.

He's the most Italian of any current driver but thats a bit beside the point, Ferrari has never focused on Italian drivers. They get the best drivers.

He has Italian blood, he should drive for italia, you know aussies, they never fully accept anyone unless you have an anglo name.
If Greeks and Croatians can get onto people with their heritage around the world to represent their countries Italians should do it too.

You should call yourself Italian.

Well he is a very proud Australian and so he should be.

[FranksterGM]

No he shouldn't.
He should be proud of his heritage.
Opinions vary.

[Aussie]

Well born in wa so he was not born over in Italy. Anyway he flys the Australian flag

[FranksterGM]

Yeah he does, so I wish him no luck at all in F1.

[Suzie]

Massa is quarter Italian, is he no longer Brazilian, FranksterGM?

He had the choice, he didn't take it. may he crash out every race.
All im saying is Italians need to be more pro active with people of Italian blood. like the diaspora of other nations are.

You really need to get out of the stone age.

[FranksterGM]

Im not in it....
Soon you lot can vote to go back to it... so good luck.

[stefa]

aside pointless discussion started from frankster, I would like to see DR in Ferrari in near future, and of course I would like to se him and FA in not perfect but at least decent car.

[Infi24r]

Italy is a country not a race of people. We're not Jewish or something.

I find it quite offensive that you keep implying there is something wrong with being Australian. I will always recognise the blood of my grandparents but I'm not going to associate with any country other than the nation I was born and live. Ricciardo is the same.

I really cannot believe the words I read ..

Jews are basically arabs who speak to a different sky wizard.. they are Semitic people.
Italians are a race.
well good for you if you feel comfortable that way, others don't and value their heritage more, that's all

Thread closed due to FranksterGM's multiple stupid comments. Well done!
