It was about as bad he could have expected though. The only worse result would have been if his teammate (who was equal w/Alonso going into the race) had managed to finish the race in first - thus giving Vettel the lead in the DC and favoritism within the team.
Alonso will be lacking no confidence either (if that really is some difference maker to you) - not to mention this year is completely different than last year in terms of competition. Ferrari will be very strong in the remaining races (Bridgestone will also be using the tire compounds the F10 likes), especially @ Abu Dhabi as will Mclaren - we saw Hamilton absolutely crush the RB's and the rest of the field in qualy last year.
I'm curious as to what exactly he said (and hell I would be laughing hysterically at RB's misfortunes as well if it meant my title hopes were that much better - so were basically the entire Mclaren pit crew
). Also, he can't be that big of any idiot - maybe selfish, but NO idiot by any stretch of the imagination given his success and vast wealth. With that said, I wish I had a peice of his pie
It's funny how much hate and jealousy FA draws at times - one can only laugh (especially when you call him an idiot
). Good thing his mentality is made of iron and doesn't let the nonsense get to him.
Nothing is guaranteed, if the Macca's or Kubica become good they could very well be a big threat to RB's Championship hopes. The ball can roll either way in this case. Once again, RB are far from clear favorites for the last two races (especially with the often unpredictable weather at Brazil, as Vettel found out last year).
"Especially with Vettel next to Mark"?... what does that mean? You mean they will take eachother out?
