Following the Sebastian Vettel v Narain Karthikeyan hissy fits we were intrigued to learn that Red Bull Racing have up the ante a little.
Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko has revealed they have sent a warning to Marussia and HRT.
“We have told our team manager to talk to both Marussia and HRT about getting their drivers to pay more attention,” Marko told Austria’s Servus TV. “They drive in a different league, they are six or eight seconds slower, and so they need to watch out more.”
Marko added, “The 12 points which Vettel lost could be crucial in the World Championship.”
Meanwhile, Sebastian Vettel remains unrepentent on his stance against Karthikeyan. Speaking to Sport Bild the dual world champ said, “I lost a solid fourth place, so that’s disappointing. Sometimes you let the emotion show and I don’t think someone should be ashamed about that.”
In another interview the German explained, “It is true that I was disappointed. But just shortly after the race I behaved like I felt. I think this is more honest than to be smiling, when you don’t feel like smiling.”
Vettel remains confident ahead of the Chinese Grand Prix (15 April), “We have a very good car, and I have a good chance of a big year.
“If you look at the sporting side, after two races I have more points than I had in my world championship season 2010.
“I only look ahead now. I have been in the simulator twice and go to China positively.”
