    7 races, 7 poles for Red Bull. Can you see where this is going?
    7 races, 3 wins for Red Bull, 3 for McLaren and 1 for Alonso after Vettel’s car developed trouble when only 18 laps remained.

    Laps led in the 2010 season. Webber:185, Vettel 110, Button 74, Hamilton 18, Alonso 18, Rosber 16. Spot the champion??

    McLaren has TWO champions now, and they finished their 2nd 1-2 finish in the 2010 season in Turkey.

    Eat it up.

    Yeah, and he’s in Ferrari now and got a lucky inherited win in Bahrein, which means he has led a grand total of 18 laps after 7 races in the 2010 season. Right now I bet he wishes he had signed for Red Bull back in 2008. Since he struggled to pass Petrov in the ever improving Renault in Turkey, and Kubica was way ahead in the other Renault I bet he wishes he never left Renault.

    So far I see a Red Bull vs McLaren season in 2010.

    So there’s your dream you shallow fool.

  3. Power is not just what counts but the weight of the cars is critical.

    Power to weight ratio for the F1 car will be easily over 1000bhp per tone.

  4. alonso the best F1 driver, im sorry but i think michael schumacher is better, though i have to say lewis hamilton shouldn’t be left out of the equation

  5. I love that they used Martin for it too! I bet most people have forgotten about the old version by now!

  6. Gah, don’t you realize that they time the car separately for several laps and them to start at different times so that the end result is what you see here?

  7. i’m not sure but i think this is fake.
    own could they get the camera on the road w/ the cars then when they switch angles to look at the front the car is gone…plus have you notice how every f1 comparison ends in the exact same order…i just think its odd!!!

  8. Hopefully is going to be a good year, but don’t enjoy it to much cause Bernie and Max are going to change the rules again at the end of the year, those 2 old farts need to go to a nursing home and let Formula 1 be.
    Forza Felipe and Alonso!!!

  9. “Best driver in the best car” – thought that’s what we had in 2008? **only kidding** ;o)

    Anyway, can’t wait for 2009 Season. New Regulations could turn the tables upside down and have Japanese or German cars at the front of the grid.

  10. Great video!…Fernando Alonso is the best driver in Formula 1 by far!…McLaren had the chance to have this great champion but they treated him in a fucked up way, well it’s McLaren loss.
    Go Alonso!!!, Go Renault!
    ANd maybe someday we’ll see Alonso in Ferrari, that will be my dream come true: the best driver in the best car.

  11. lol, nice. alonso needs to sign with either BMW or Ferrari to claim his status again, it’s a total shame it didnt pan out between mercedes because their is no doubt that he would achieve this at least one more time.
