Rubens did the fastest lap 1:44.3 in the dry so I can't believe Lewis did a 1:44.7 in wet/oily conditions. I compared them frame by frame and Lewis is fast and tidy, different, sometimes tighter lines. Amazing. I dunno how he does it. Did they ever get Vettel in this show? Button is somewhat more cautious, when he came to Manila, he lost an exhibition karting race to one of the local champions

[@SprengePotetgull]

Yes, Vettel was there later on, and did 1:44:0, faster than both Rubens Barrichello and the Stig. When Hamilton returned in series 19, he did a 1:42:9 in dry conditions.

Actually, in 2008, the STR outperformed the RBR for the most part. The STR3-which replaced the STR2B at Monaco (the sixth race)-driven at Monza was a Newey design. Plus, in Monza, the Toro Rosso's were particularly quick for some reason (Bourdais qualifying on the second row). I'm not taking anything away from Vettel because he is a fantastic driver, but nowadays and even in the past, a significant factor for winning in F1 has been down to the car performance in addition to driver skill.
