Red Bull X2010s For All if Vettel Wins 2011 F1 Championship
Fulfilling his pledge to make important Twitter posts in English, Kazunori Yamauchi has just announced some interesting plans if Sebastian Vettel wins the 2011 F1 World Championship:
If Sebastian Vettel becomes the winner of the F1 World Championship title in the Oct. 9 Formula 1 Suzuka GP, To commemorate Vettel’s 2 year consecutive world championship title, We’ll give away the “Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel” color, TO EVERYONE WHO LOGS ONTO GT5 WITHIN 1WK FROM VETTEL’S VICTORY…
Kazunori has frequently commented on Twitter about Vettel’s performance, and he is obviously a fan of the F1 superstar who was involved with the X2010′s development. Now you’ll have another reason to keep an eye on next weekend’s Grand Prix! Thanks to Adam for the tip.
UPDATE: There was some confusion about whether players would receive only the Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel “color”, or the car itself. Kazunori has since clarified his comments in another tweet, confirming the car itself will be awarded.

So does that mean we can start logging in for our free X1s? Where and how? OCD or UCD?

Am I the only one who thinks this will be terrible?
It’s bad enough already with all the idiots plowing into my racing line in an X1 and blaming me, now EVERYONE is going to be annoying online.
Not to mention the people who ACTUALLY think they genuinely are faster than the rest of the field who AREN’T in an X1

Most hate the X1 anyways and who doesn’t have several. Kaz dropped the ball again.

I admire the guy’s handy work, I just wouldn’t be patient enough to do the metal work and the painting. The guy has real talent, true craftsman like this guy are a dying breed in this cheap gaudy Chinese manufactured world.

As i understand it Vettel needs to take the title at Suzuka on the 9th for everyone to get X1′s.
I know he only needs a point, but he needs to finish the race.
If he somehow doesn’t finish the race due to failure,crashing out or being taken out by someone else.
He will not be world Champion at Suzuka and no X1′s for everyone.
“Anything can happen in formula 1, and it usually does” Murray Walkers wise words.Sorry if i sound all doom and gloom, this is just my interpretation of Kaz’s tweet.

You are correct, Pedro, in that the tweet clearly states Vettel needs to win the Championship at Suzuka. But I do not think this is the place to demonstrate one’s reading comprehension skills. You are supposed to use this space to establish your superiority through condescension, dissatisfaction, and/or oh-so-above-it-all’edness…
To clarify, though, even if Vettel does not score a point, he still wins the Championship if Button does not win the race…

That will come handy on the way to the 1000 cars trophy… Sigh.

That’s cool I lost mine when my ps3 crashed and I did not back it up.
But the way vettel is going we may get it really soon he only needs 1 point and the championship is his and even if he finished 4th or 5th then we might as well say we are all getting X1′s
Look at the current table
01 Sebastian Vettel 309
02 Jenson Button 185
03 Fernando Alonso 184
04 Mark Webber 182
05 Lewis Hamilton 168
06 Felipe Massa 84
07 Nico Rosberg 62
08 Michael Schumacher 52 -

As I answered 99ssd99, I won’t shoot my PS3 or GT5 disk because the X2010 is capped at level 30.
