Case 21 - Red Bull

You're heading for a time out, mister!
Problem - Red Bull are the top dogs (bulls, surely - Ed) in F1. Their car is the quickest, their drivers are superb and they claimed an impressive 1-2 at the Malaysian Grand Prix on Sunday. Everything's rosey in the Red Bull garden then? Well, no. Because their Golden Boy, three-time world champion Sebastian Vettel disobeyed team orders by overtaking fellow Red Bull driver Mark Webber to claim victory. This overtake could have gone horribly wrong and could have led to a nasty crash that would have taken both cars out of the race. Red Bull needs to get its drivers under control.

Solution - Supernanny.

Sebastian Vettet is a very talented driver. He will go down in history as being one of the best drivers ever. He'll probably win the title again this year and may go on to surpass Schumacher's achievements in the sport. But he's a spoilt brat. His behaviour could do damage to the team and Red Bull's wider reputation. They need to get a handle on the boy or risk being seen as soft touches.

We recommend getting Supernanny down into the Pit. If Sebastian wants to behave like a toddler then he'll be treated like one. Red Bull could implement a Naughty Step system for when Sebastian steps completely out of line, like he did at the weekend, or, during outbreaks of particularly offensive behaviour, give him a Time Out.

Obviously this will all be filmed and include emotional scenes where Red Bull supremo Christian Horner has to step up and take responsibility for disciplining his young child, supported via video link by Supernanny.

Oh, and Supernanny will be in full Red Bull race gear, naturally.

This could really work.

Sebastian needs to know who's boss
