Just a quick post today to mention a couple of articles which included Sebastien Buemi.
First Sporting reflections had a write up on the race, which included Buemi as one of the weekends standouts, saying:
Swiss driver Sebastien Buemi, a 20-year old in his debut F1 race, showed a nice combination of speed, consistency and maturity - at one stage seriously challenging the Ferrari of former world champion Kimi Raikkonen - which allowed him to bring his Toro Rosso home an impressive seventh while others conspired to remove themselves from contention.
Fine praise indeed, but well deserved (in my opinion). Maturity is an interesting word, because that's a feeling I've gotten from Buemi since he arrived on the F1 scene. He handles himself very well, whether off the track or on it.
The other article was by Motor Sport Magazine, which rated the F1 drivers' performance in Melbourne. Sebastien Buemi was given 8 out of 10 along with the following comment:
A great first race for the only rookie on the grid. Stayed out of trouble and importantly beat his team-mate. 8/10
Interesting, Buemi was equal 4th based on the ratings. He was behind only Lewis Hamilton (9.5), Jenson Button (9), Nico Rosberg (8.5) and was level with Fernando Alonso (who also had 8). Fine company indeed.
Well that's all, I just wanted to share what I'd been reading about Sebasiten Buemi.
