ashley313, you constantly pump up Massa to try and diminish Alonso's great season and confidently assert that the only reason Massa didn't show that he was definitively better than Alonso was because Ferrari wouldn't let him; yet despite your playing with semantics, you aren't willing to accept that Red Bull could have given Vettel an advantage over Webber, via machinery or strategy. It only makes sense that the number one driver and title contender would get new parts sooner, and possibly have a better setup, than the number two, especially given how competitive a team Red Bull are. It's Team Red Bull, not Team Kool-Aid.
But seriously, other people in this thread, I'm embarrassed for you when I read posts like "ur just saying that cuz u have a crush on SV" and you would be too if you knew what cavepeople you sound like. You can be female and like racing for reasons other than the drivers. -_-
I've never said anything about Massa being better than Alonso and not being able to show it. I said Massa drove circles around Alonso in the last couple of rounds of 2012, and he didn't need to finish ahead to show it.
Further, getting new parts and getting better parts are two different things. This thread is about a comment made by SD saying that he thinks Sebastian gets better parts, and says look at the failures on Mark's car as evidence. If something is failing, its because its a bad, poor quality, older, substandard, whatever. Not because it isn't the newest development part that goes faster. All I have said is that Mark's mechanical failures are not due to some disparity in the quality of components that go on his car and his teammate's, specifically his KERS and clutches.
