Sebastian Vettel has dismissed suggestions of "brutal dominance" in the wake of his storming start to the new Formula One season
Sebastian Vettel has dismissed suggestions of "brutal dominance" in the wake of his storming start to the new Formula One season.
Vettel has so far been perfection personified courtesy of back-to- back pole-to-flag wins in Australia and Malaysia that have left his rivals standing.

With Vettel having won the last four overall, and five of the last six when you consider his charge at the end of last year that gave him his place in F1's history books, there is appreciable concern the 23-year-old will walk away with this season's crown.
"What has happened has been good so far, but we've only had two of 19 races, so obviously there's a long way to go," said Vettel.
"We've seen within a matter of days how the pace can vary, with it much tighter in Malaysia than in Australia.
"Some people were already talking of brutal dominance, or whatever, but I have tried not to read anything.
"We're just two races in, so I don't think I need to explain how many things can change.
"Look at last year, with Fernando (Alonso) a very good example.
"People wrote him out of the championship, but he came back; then they wrote him off again, but he came back and was the favourite going into the last race.
"I guess it will be very similar this year. It's all about being consistent, getting your stuff together and making sure you use everything you have."
