It only takes one race to destroy a reputation, as 3-time Formula 1 champion Sebastian Vettel proved yesterday in the Malaysian Grand Prix.
Ignoring team orders to ruthlessly overtake teammate Mark Webber, and thus steal a victory, was never likely to impress anyone - not Webber, the rest of the Red Bull team, or anyone else watching.
It's a real shame because Vettel was one of the most likeable drivers, both extremely talented and modest, which are qualities few drivers display together. It just goes to show that you can never underestimate the hunger to win.
Here's hoping Vettel has learned his lesson and won't repeat the selfishness to become another Michael Schumacher...
