Vettel didn't deserve to win the championship - Discuss
The only driver imo who doesnt deserve it!

Why Hans, well the Turkish Incident, The Belgium Incident, and never at one point throughout this season has he led the title race. Until now. I agree with who ever finishes with most points but he just looked shockin this season to last.

Pole position in over half the races suggests he had every right to be fighting for it today.

Garcon, getting things right on a saturday are completely different to getting things right on the sunday

He got things right on the sunday too, more often than not, or else he wouldn't have won the championship. I'm of the view that he who deserves it, wins it. Only in cases of foul play would I ever believe otherwise.

Yes he's caused a couple of pretty major accidents, one with his own team mate (who isn't exactly unblemished in that respect himself, despite his years), but that happens when you're so near the edge. None of the contenders have been blame free this year. Vettel will, I'm sure, learn from his mistakes. But in the meantime he still managed to collect enough points to win. I think that makes him a deserved champion. |

If he didn't have those 3 mechanical failures he would have finished with 331 points. Would he not have deserved it then?
He did exactly what he had to. Alonso and Ferrari F*ed it up royally. Alonso needs to learn to stop acting like a baby. He needed to pass 3 cars, he didn't. |

Jesus we could go on about this crap for years. This year has been full of incidents, each driver having their fair share. To be perfectly honest, Webber, Alonso and Vettel were all deserving. Just because Vettel has won it, that doesn't make him any more deserving than the other two. It has been so up and down for everyone in their own ways.
The biased based bickering is getting ridiculous |

The great thing about the Championship is it is over 19 races. So at the end of the day the person who wins it is generally the one who deserves it. He made mistakes, everyone did, but at the end of the day he won 5 races and scored more points than anyone else. How is that not deserving?
And more to the point, who do you think WOULD have deserved it? Alonso? He had 7 points handed to him on a silver platter. Webber? He generally lacked the pace compared to his team-mate. Hamilton? Did well in the 3rd best car but made some major mistakes. |

In all honesty, I wasn't a fan of Vettel - I'm still not. But the bottom line is that you win the championship because you get the most points. He did. End of. If they gave it to the most deserving driver, it would be a very different championship because the race results and the car wouldn't matter!

Vettel more than deserved it. After the team orders incident I would say Alonso has more of a case for "not deserving" the title.
As stated above, Vettel finished with the most points and is a worth champion. |

Didn't deserve it? Hogwash. He got more points than anyone else. Period. I don't desperately like the guy, but that doesn't mean he didn't deserve it. Shame on the OP for even suggesting it.

Did anyone else watching the BBC coverage hear the word "Fartmeister" when they went to Vettel's radio?

Who exactly did deserve it then?
They've all made plenty of mistakes. |
