He always seems to be genuinely happy. I got the feeling sometimes when people win that the look on there face is that they expect it, instead of being happy

I think I know what you mean. I guess when you've been in a crummy car for so long, winning a few races is like winning a WDC when you've spent years in chrome and scarlet armchairs -Cough-

It is very refreshing to again see a driver genuinely happy, way to go JB!

I couldn't be happier for Button and Barichello, to have such a good come back after thinking their F1 careers were over. Now if Button could win a race that doesn't finish behind a safety car I think he'd be even happier.

For sure...it would be 5 more points to him

I think he has been rather fortunate, not that he is a bad driver, he is skilled, calm, and persevering...but his successes has been largely to do with other people's bad luck, hopefully this will change.

No, his success has been due to driving brilliantly in a good car. It's the same with pretty much every front runner ever, including that guy in your avatar.
