The fact that Vettel dominated at Monza in essentially a Red Bull chassis in a team whose budget is not even the same as the Red Bull says to me, a Red Bull Ferrari chassis could have had them in the top 3. Look at Webber's early season performance; then as the season went on, a lack of points finishes when they got to the faster tracks. No doubt the chassis continued to develop as evidenced by STR performance, what has not changed for Red Bull is the engine performance.Pete DaSilvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16860115191743349049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1229989495475212205.post-34385587068839824462008-09-21T11:25:00.000-04:002008-09-21T11:25:00.000-04:00I think Deitrich is a bit presumptous when he says...I think Deitrich is a bit presumptous when he says RBR has the best chassis on the grid. The Renault engine may lack balls, but the car is far from the best either. It sounds like marketing speech to me, with Red Bull maybe trying to pass the buck in order to convince potential sponsors to invest in the team.Senor Souphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15622045077772608121noreply@blogger.com
