If [...] Vettel is really as awful as you’re saying
I don't think he's awful at all, I think he's quite good, and certainly better than some others on the grid. But I do think he's over-rated, and the four titles flatter him, as he's not been able to replicate that form without a supremely dominant car. My use of the word 'awful' was just a way to question whether number of overtakes is necessarily a good measure of ability, a hypothetical example of a driver in a good car who is bad at qualifying.
I think Vettel is a good driver. I don't think he's awful, but I don't think he's great.
