The Racer's Edge Episode 36 - Why Vettel is so quick, Pit Wall Drivers and GP2 GP3 finales

Two photographs, two similar cars - and two very different driving positions. In the aftermath of Sebastian Vettel's seventh F1 win of the 2013 season, we dissect the differences, on the same corner, between Sebastian Vettel and his Red Bull team-mate, Mark Webber. Rob Wilson, who works, and has worked, with many of the top F1, IndyCar, GP2, GP3 and F3 drivers, explains why Seb can be looking one way whilst Mark is looking another. Analysis of the radio transmissions from the pit wall during last Sunday's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix with Peter Windsor and Rob Wilson. We hear instructions to adjust brake balance, or torque settings, or to cool the tyres - but what do these actually mean for the driver in terms of how the car reacts and how he "pulls the levers"? Sam Bird out-qualified his nearest championship rival, Fabio Leimer, in the Abu Dhabi GP2 championship decider. Then, after an aborted start, Sam's clutch failed on the line. He talks to us about that moment - and about his brilliant recovery to finish 10th from the pit lane and then fourth in Sunday's race, clinching for Russian Time the 2013 GP2 Teams Championship in their rookie season. Sam was also awarded the Pirelli Trophy (voted by a panel of motoring journalists) for 2013; and this week he had some fun in a GP3 car at Abu Dhabi. We talk about all that, and more, as we look back at the GP2 and GP3 championship finales
