After the Grand Prix in Malaysia Sebastian Vettel said the following: “Obviously I’m the black sheep right now. Obviously I put myself in that position so, as I said, all I can say is apologies to Mark. I know that right now, obviously, having just come out of the car, it’s probably difficult to explain everything but the pass was deliberate, obviously I wanted to pass him, you could see that, otherwise you wouldn’t even try, but I didn’t mean to ignore the strategy or the call. I made a mistake, simply”.

Yesterday, he said: “I don’t apologise for winning. I think that’s why people employed me in the first place and why I am here. I apologised for putting myself above the team, which I didn’t mean to do.”

So, it was deliberate, but it was not deliberate and he apologised but he does not apologise. One can only assume that, as a fan of Monty Python, SebVet has spent the last two weeks watching too much of it…

Man: Is this the right room for an argument?

Mr Vibrating: I’ve told you once.

Man: No you haven’t.

Mr Vibrating: Yes I have.

Man: When?

Mr Vibrating: Just now!

Man: No you didn’t.

Mr Vibrating: Yes I did!

Man: Didn’t.

Mr Vibrating: Did.

Man: Didn’t.

Mr Vibrating: I’m telling you I did!

Man: You did not!

Mr Vibrating: I’m sorry, is this a five minute argument, or the full half hour?

Man: Oh … Just a five-minute one.

Mr Vibrating: Fine, thank you. Anyway, I did.

Man: You most certainly did not.

Mr Vibrating: Now, let’s get one thing quite clear. I most definitely told you!

Man: You did not.

Mr Vibrating: Yes I did.

Man: Didn’t.

Mr Vibrating: Yes I did.

Man: Didn’t.

Mr Vibrating: Yes I did!!

Man: Look, this isn’t an argument.

Mr Vibrating: Yes it is.

Man: No it isn’t, it’s just contradiction.

Exactly!
