This season is almost as bad as 2011 with Vettel dominating and everyone else fighting for scraps. I really wanted Räikkönen to go to Red Bull. It is a waste to have anyone in the 2nd seat other than Räikkönen, Alonso, or Hamilton. Button or Rosberg would be the other two acceptable choices. I hope next year's cars shake things up. It's about time Red Bull replaced Webber and Ferrari replaced Massa. Talk about wasting those seats.

There's no question Räikkönen, Alonso, and Vettel are the three best drivers, easily above everyone else. They're all incredibly fast and reliable. Vettel's car might be dominating now, but he proved himself in 2010 in a tight 5-way battle, and last year in a tight battle with Alonso.

In 2010 I created my own charts for tracking the seasons. Unfortunately that's when Vettel started his dominance. I'm so sick of Vettel winning every year, that I have started going backwards. Last night I added the 2009 season. That was a crazy season, with two accidents that knocked the drivers out of their seats (Massa and Glock), several other driver changes over the season, Hamilton getting DQ'd from Australia for lying to the stewards about a passing incident under yellow, Malaysia getting drenched and the race only awarding half points, Ferrari test driver Luca Badoer getting his chance and failing miserably, Fisichella finally getting his ride in the Ferrari to finish out the season, etc. I need to fill out the review information, and I'm also going to add the 2008 and 2007 seasons.

Chart is pretty cool!

Yes, F1 is boring when 1 person is dominating due to having the best car. Then again - F1 is always about being the best constructor so RB is doing it right.
