Formula 1, the 2011 Season

The fourth race of the 2011 formula 1 season was driven today in Turkey. There was some good racing, nice passes et cetera. The new rules on tyres, KERS, and a back wing that you can open when trying to pass makes for more passing, which is exciting for the spectators. The championship itself does not seem to become very exciting, though. Ruling world champion Sebastial Vettel has won three of the last four races, and was second in the only race he did not win. He has led from start to finish in the three races he has won. When this is the case, it does not matter much that there is good and exciting racing regarding the positions behind him in the finish. This is, of course, no critizism against Sebastian Vettel. Any driver would like to be in his position. Any competitor in any sport would too, for that matter. We just have to hope that fellow Red Bull driver Mark Webber, Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, Sauber's Kamui Kobayashi, and others will be able to give Sebastian Vettel a better fight for the victory in the upcoming races.
