I can't blame Hamilton for not demanding a raise. From what I know his annual sallary is 700 000 euro which is faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar less than the other top performing drivers. So I can't blame him for getting a little jealous of Alonso. After all being a F1 driver is a job and it is completely natural for Hamilton to demand more money for his outstanding job.

Vettel is a high potential driver but I feel myself that he isn't ready for a top team. I wasn't too impressed with his performance at USA GP. He did too many mistakes and drove off track a few times. Maybe in 1-2 years he will capability to properly take full advantage of a top car.
